As Macy's goes, so goes Downtown Crossing, apparently: After downtown's last department store boarded up its display windows and doors the other day, store owners all over the once busy commercial district rushed to do likewise, as Gary Waldeck discovered today.

Pray for peace. I fear one knucklehead from either the protestors or police could be the tipping point we all are afraid of.
