NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – The city will be on high security alert this Fourth of July holiday, spending money and resources to make sure its biggest celebration is a safe one.

[Biggirl]

This includes "celebratory gunfire."

Watch out for those sparklers

And people imbibing carbonated, cane sugar drinks in large quantities.

Are you confusing NY with LA?

[grania]

The only thing that can make us safe, ever again, is an assimilated, self-reliant population that has confidence in their futures and cares about their world and their place in it.

What were doing now is what was science-fiction not all that long ago. It never ended well in those stories

[chiefqc]

The police will be on the lookout for anyone drinking a big gulp.

I have a whole bag of 223 blanks. I’m thinking of installing the blank firing adapter on my AR-15 and doing some ‘celebratory’ firing myself.

[SoFloFreeper]

Every tool will be used EXCEPT the most effective....PROFILING.

Oh, don’t get me wrong; they’ll profile people who might be in the NRA or a Tea Party group.....but not REAL terrorists.

A VERY good way to get yourself shot!

If they were to just purchase several million pairs of handcuffs and chain everyone to their beds the problem of safety would be solved.

[BwanaNdege]

Yeah, I used a much earlier version on my M-16 about 40 years ago.

[Gaffer]

I have a real red one. Much older than the link and much
Better built too.
