"Flash robs"
In the United States, in 2009 and 2010, the city of Philadelphia experienced a wave of flash mobs that either started with the intent or led to the destruction of private property, rioting, violence, and personal injury.[17] As a result, police used pepper spray to disperse crowds and arrests were made.[38][39] Law makers and lobbyists in the city are pursuing enacting bylaws to counter flash mobs by extending curfew hours, limiting the hours of bus passes, and holding parents more accountable for the actions of their children.[17] Bill Wasik has expressed "surprise by the new focus of some of the gatherings" and called it "terrible that these Philly mobs have turned violent".[17] Violence by African-American flash mobs resumed in the summer of 2011, drawing condemnation from mayor Michael Nutter, who said that participants "damage [their] own race".[40] A curfew of 9pm was imposed in two districts.[41] Summer 2011 brought additional "flash mobs", "flash robs" or "flash thefts" to Maryland, Cleveland, Chicago, Washington, D.C., and Ottawa, Ontario.[42][43] [edit]See also

Do you see any heart shape in the bisons maxicard?
Yes? Me, too.
No? Me, neither.
You haven't looked hard enough...
Which reminds me of an old joke:
"-Why do elephants have red eyes?
-...?
- To hide in a cherry-tree. But have you ever seen one in a cherry-tree?
- No.
- Then he must have hidden well!"
I could say that I see a congested yellow heart, with the upper lobes compressed laterally into each other and the line between them visible, a few millimeters below the letters SH from the word Washington, in the postmark.
