New York is the last place you want to be New Year’s Eve. Islamic supremacists and their left-wing stooges are waging war on this country. You can deny that reality but you cannot avoid the consequences of denying reality.
The NYPD and FBI are preparing to secure Times Square for the hundreds of thousands of visitors expected at Sunday’s New Year’s Eve celebration. The FBI said it received an influx of tips about potential threats since the Oct. 7 Hamas attack.
Police will set up a perimeter from Sixth Avenue to Eighth and from 41st Street to 57th. Officers will check people entering the zone, in part to make sure they’re not bringing backpacks, duffel bags or alcohol.

The NYPD is also preparing for protests like the one near the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree lighting in November. Since Oct. 7, the NYPD has policed an average of more than five protests per day related to the Israel-Hamas war.
“There’s a protest every day in New York City, so there’s certainly going to be a protest on New Year’s Eve,” said NYPD Intelligence Division Commanding Officer John Hart.
NYC heightens security for New Year’s Eve bash in anticipation of possible pro-Palestine activities

The New York Police Department is reportedly stepping up security in preparation for possible pro-Palestinian protesters hijacking the city’s New Year’s Eve festivities in Times Square.
According to NYC Mayor Eric Adams, the city is unaware of any “specific threats” at the moment but is preparing anyway.
“There are no specific threats to the city, but as we saw last year, you don’t have to have a specific threat to get a threat, and we’re going to be ready,” he said at a press conference Friday.
Last year, a man reportedly attacked three NYPD officers with a machete in Times Square.

Despite there being no specific threats, pro-Palestinian groups have been calling for protests in Times Square for weeks now. And considering previous protests that disrupted major city events — such as the Thanksgiving Day Parade — numbered in the thousands, the city is prepared for anything.
“We’re prepared for them in any number,” Assistant NYPD Chief John Hart explained to the New York Daily News. “We’re prepared for different groups from different places, and we will make sure this event stays safe.”

“Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them. We should therefore claim, in the name of tolerance, the right not to tolerate the intolerant.”

R. Eleazar said, “Anyone who becomes merciful upon the cruel one will end by being cruel to the merciful: It is written (I Samuel 15:9), ‘But Saul had pity upon Agag and upon the best of the sheep and the cattle’; and it is [also] written (I Samuel 22:19) about Nob the city of priest, ‘And he smote Nob the city of priests with the edge of the sword.’

Exactly who is going to declare something to be “intolerant.” Far better to have an open and free discussion. Freedom of Speech is simply non-negotiable.

This is not at all obvious.
In Russia, after February 1917, freedom of speech reigned for several months.
Lenin said that Russia at that moment was a champion in the field of freedom of speech.
As a result, the Bolsheviks, led by Lenin, seized power and freedom of speech in Russia disappeared for 70 years.
There was freedom of speech in the Weimar Republic.
During this time, Hitler’s National Socialists became very popular and seized power in 1933.
Freedom of speech disappeared for 12 years.
Nothing should be turned into a fetish.

Because we gave up the country. And they took it.
So now we’re basically servants of the Muslim Umma. Which proves how successful a dedicated minority can be against a potentially much stronger opponent who has no sense of who they are.
So be sure to tear down statues, support things like CRT, and the 1619 Project’s version of American history.
Meanwhile enjoy moving from the greatest country that was ever conceived to a dystopian nightmare. A$$holes!

Goethe wrote about this…
Das ist der Weisheit letzter Schluß:
Nur der verdient sich Freiheit wie das Leben,
Der täglich sie erobern muß.
Goethes Faust II, Vers 11
573 ff.
This is the last conclusion of wisdom: he deserves freedom like life, Who has to conquer it every day.

There is non reason for NawYawk to be on any alert. They do nothing to curb the normal or mass violent protests that have already happened. There is no reason that they should worry about the near future. It is not PC.

The warning not to attend any large events will go unheeded. Perhaps, there will be no attacks onNew Years Eve in NYC or anywhere else. That one or several or many will occur soon is highly probable.
We have the 3024 Election just 10 months away. In any fair election Biden will be defeated. The organized crime family masquerading as the Democrat Party knows that, and they have known that for a long period of time.
Biden gave $6 billion tonIran, allowing them to sell hundreds of billions of oil.
Three years ago the Obiden Junta opened our borders and nearly 10 million have crossed, mostly military age young males..
They join 40 million illegals and their children who arrived earlier. Our government knows that among them are Hamas, ISIS. Taliban, Hexbuallah and other groups fully dedicated to our destruction.
Next year, knowing he will lose the election is when the terrorist attacks will break out across the country. Then, Biden will declare martial law, “postpone” the election or require all votes to be mail-in or online.
Does that sum it up for you?

Unfortunately, Muslims will attack whether it’s NY or some where else in the world. Evil Muslims are planning this, thanks to Obama and Soros.

America: We have a problem! We have let “political correctness” stand in the way of common sense. I, and millions of Americans have seen this coming. And what has our present government done about it? They opened the borders even more, in fact there really isn’t a border. INSANITY!
