Bloomberg’s 4th of July
Cam Edwards blog
By Cam on National

As we celebrate our freedom on this day, let’s all take a minute to point out just how far New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg is willing to go to make sure you’re obeying the law.

From 4Pundits:

the NYPD is now dispatching undercover cops into Pennsylvania to stake out firework vendors, as New York magazine recently reported. When they see a NY license plate, they snap a photo and prepare for the bust back home.

So far, the NYPD claims more than 60 arrests and a record number of seizures, more than 1,000 cases of fireworks. They’re even seizing cars now, at least 30 so far. What’s really ridiculous (and outrageous) is when you look at what is legal in Pennsylvania, these folks are losing their cars for stuff like fountains and spinners.

You get the feeling that if this were 1776 Bloomberg might be a Tory?
