Yeah, I Went There
Normally, I'd consider Mayor Menino to be his usual grandstanding self, not looking at the big picture, when he makes the media circuit after the most recent shooting in Boston. He's going after the people who held the party where the tragedy took place, and ordinarily I'd say he's barking up the wrong tree.
But don't forget that party-hosting isn't specifically allowable by any law or statute; in fact, in the case of Horovitz, Yauch and Diamond v. New York (1986) the Supreme Court affirmed the lower court's decision that the plaintiffs did indeed have to fight for their right to party.
(Yes, I recycled that joke from the Universal Hub thread)

The word on the street back at the good old VC was that Mr. Diamond had been expelled for tossing an empty keg off the roof of the dorm he was living in. Fight for your right indeed.
