Ridiculous!!! The police and feds were overreacting over some fireworks?? In any other state this would have been completely legal. It was all a show by the feds, police and politicians who want press and accolades for saving lives -- lives that were never in danger in the first place.

“the terrorists will have won”

They won with the putrid knee jerk Patriot Act, “Homeland Security” and TSA.

I realized “the terrorists won” the first time I had to strip off my shoes, belt, sweater, ring and had my fingernail clippers confiscated the first time I went through TSA security after 9/11

A big, popular church fair in this area was just canceled because someone sent an anonymous whackjob threat letter to the Bishop.

“It’s ridiculous,” he said. “It’s one firework. I know they’re illegal in the state of New Jersey, but it’s a firework. It’s not a bomb.”

Fireworks or bomb? Semi-auto or assault rifle? You stand accused by the side that writes the definitions and checks the facts! Good luck in prison! (Sarcasm OFF)

New Jersey? I left that place in 1988. I thought they were made of tougher stuff, but now they are challenging Minnesota as the biggest wusses. A firecracker in Sea Bright cancelled an event in South Plainfield. The two places are 35 miles apart!
30 years you look at someone from New Jersey the wrong way, and you might have a fight on your hands. What is it today, someone runs to his safe space, bawling for Mommy?
I am so happy I moved to Texas.

My wife went to pay the school taxes yesterday. At the county clerk’s office they confiscated her 1-1/4” coupon snipping scissors attached to her keys. Why would they bother a 70 year old white haired woman like that?
