Any NYC Freepers near the U.N. right now? (Vanity)

Posted on 09/22/2005 11:16:13 AM PDT by Repub4bush

My husband just called from his cell. He is a block up on the street from the U.N. He said 50 police Cars just came flying by with more coming, going to the U.N.

Anyone in NYC see or hear anything?

Maybe John Bolton has threatened to blow up the UN.

It certainly wouldn't have anything to do with "The Religion of Peace" because the members of that 9th Century cult knows that the UN supports them.

Hopefully their simply arresting diplomats that have unpaid parking tickets.......

Which encompasses most of the UN diplomats....

They call it practice but what it is is a show of force

Thanks! He called to find out if anything was on the news and wanted me to check FR..

UPDATE... He just called back and said in fact it was a terror drill. He asked an officer a few blocks up. Sorry for the Vanity guys :)

Isn't the Iranian PM or "President" coming to town? They must be rushing some companionship to him... hookers, goats, or swine...

A year or so ago, one of the police shows ..I think it was NYPD BLUE)..that films all or part in NY was doing an exterior shot in midtown..when all of a sudden these 50+ NYPD units screamed past..sirens and light going...to the next block..it was a practice response...the cameras kept rolling..and they incorporated it into the program...great footage...it came out when a few days after th show aired, some NYC councilman wanted to know why the NYPD was going to such an expensive effort for a TV show..

another possibility..after all the activity at the UN the last few weeks..an post-action critique might have revealed some apparent weaknesses in the NYPD deployment/response...so they ran this exercise to see if they had corrected it..

I work a few blocks away - the police often stage that in the a.m. Its just usually a practice run.
