Well I’m leaving safe Staten island to go to Brooklyn on July 4th and nobody’s changing my plans. If I die then there will be less posts on free republic but I’m not changing a damn thing because of them.

I have seen three marches in front of me, I have had a group of them ask me why I wasn’t marching, I have been the only white person in a crowd of hundreds in a park in crown heights.

Maybe I’m just a stupid Italian because I don’t care.

If something goes down I will take as many as I can with me to hell.

I am dating a Spanish girl there and have taken her two kids under my wing. I’m going

my 52 and yesterday was the first day of my life somebody wished me a happy Father’s day. Some things are too important to stay away from because of fear.

Ciao

Many cities & towns in Texas have prohibition of possession of fireworks...$2,000.00 fine.

The fine itself is incentive for LE to go after those who set them off inside city limits.

I would think that fireworks in mass quantities could also be used for bombings and other terror attacks, too.

Someone ran around Tacoma, WA this past weekend lighting off cherry bombs every few blocks for 2 to 3 hours.

Fireworks are illegal in the city limits—and the police have been responding.
