I remember growing up in the NYC metro area in the 70s you risked life and limb if you went to see the Times Square Ball drop. I cannot imagine standing out there for 12+ house for a stupid ball drop. You have to wear a diaper.

But mostly peaceful protests are allowed and encouraged.

It’s only a ‘thing’ in NYC.

The rest of the country does their own thing....................

You have to wear a diaper.

And a sash saying, "2021."

Or a "Father Time" costume with a sash saying, "2020."

Regards,

NYC is just killing one of their top business models, by discouraging travelers to the state for events.

They didn’t even cancel in 2001 when they thought it might be swarmed by terrorists

I keep saying that the dems want to remove everything from us that unites us as a country and that holds special tradition for us, that gives us identity.

They started with Easter, then Memorial Day. They tried to scrap Fourth of July but we outdid anything that would nhave normally gone on.

Labor Day - out.

they are trying to cancel voting in person. I’m sure Thanksgiving and Christmas are on the docket as well although I don’t recall hearing anything about them.

So this is our new normal. A country they are redesigning to remove everything that gave us cultural identity.

Nope. We’re celebrating anyways and keep those traditions and what they represent alive.

One of the most inane events in recent decades.

No legit NYer would be caught dead there—yet always a massive crowd, with people wearing adult diapers because they knew they wouldn’t have access to facilities once they got past security into the penned in areas.

Perfect for Nadler and Biden.

I’m shocked at the left’s ability to drag this thing on beyond the couple of weeks it deserved.

It’s kind of dividing the nation between the mask Karens and the rest of us that ignore it all.

This is what happens when you forget the scare tactics were only meant for certain people. They are now believing their own lies.

The marxist in charge is very happy to cancel anything that New Yorkers do for fun. They want to make as many people as miserable as they can.

Next: Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. But not ramadamn or juneteenth, or White Guilt month.

This may be because of the virus. But the reality is that the city can’t afford anything. Just after the election you will be told how bad these cities are in debt.
