Wait, so the Mayor’s solution to the fireworks pandemic is to put on six nights in a row of Macy’s fireworks? Macy’s just needs to cancel this thing this year. It’s not like people haven’t seen enough fireworks are ready. And if the goal is to reduce people getting together in big crowds, then why put on a fireworks show at all?

The goal is to get NYC back to the tourist-tax-revenue-money pumping state that it was in. So the best way is to look like NYC is doing all right and everything is normal, residents be damned.
About the Macy's fireworks, so now we're going to have "stealth" fireworks shows spread out across most of a week?! Because that won't encourage all the nonsense that we're already seeing in terms of illegal fireworks??
As usual de Blasio's instinct is 100% WRONG. He does NOT ever have a CLUE about how to deal with NYC. His raised-in-Massachusetts-mindset betrays him every single time!
RE: the photo of the Trek store.
They make tons of money selling bike to cops. You can't be on both sides.
