I asked the one high ranking policeman I saw on 5th Ave why there were so few police. He said “We did not expect anything like this. Don’t tell anyone but I’ve only got 44 officers out here — and it’s a great crowd, great event, no incidents.”

Reposting to my network of people with the ability to make things happen. @honestlyeris.bsky.social is a musical composition talent and these ideas need to come to life.
