So it really looks like someone hacked the Empire State Building lights right now

Twitter ^

Choppers seem to be trying to search the top floors... never seen anything like this

[ameribbean expat]

Video at link. Pretty funny.

[Jane Long]

Maybe just celebrating Kavanaugh’s confirmation......bwahahaha :-)

[Notthereyet]

I don’t think it would be any of the ‘resisters,’ or the lights would simply be Communist Red. If it’s someone trying to celebrate JUSTICE KAVANAUGH’S confirmation then they really should have it as red, white, and blue!

[Steely Tom]

The number of people who know how to make that happen is surely very small, and the communications channels over which those lights can be controlled are few and well monitored, I’m sure.

[Steely Tom]

SURRENDER... KAVANAUGH...

[Beowulf9]

A chopper sitting about 20 feet from a window can see....what?

[Jane Long]

I did see white, mixed in with the red and the blue.

[Phillyred]

Didn’t they disgracefully light it red in honor of the 50th birthday of COMMIE CHINA?

[Olog-hai]

Much rather that than the sordid intent behind this array of lights.

[Mr.Unique]

Is there a good reason to start that sentence with, “so”?

[ameribbean expat]

Beats me. Ask the guy who posted it on Twitter. He’s an associate editor at Forbes.

“Well, it looks like ....”

I think you’re right - ‘well’ sounds better. (It IS from Twitter - which I guess is now a primary source here on FR!?)

[CJ Wolf]

So that’s odd

[HollyB]

I did too. I thought it was Red, white & blue.

[rfp1234]

Like, what’s (you know) wrong with, like, using “so’ to, like, start a sentence (you know)? /s

[Henry Cavendish]

Maybe the helicopter is acting as a beacon in case the lights go off.

[JParris]

Can’t speak for OP , but i do it to irk grammer nazis........

[BradyLS]

I don’t get it. What happened, exactly?

[BenLurkin]

[taxesareforever]

A window.
