The media blitz is on and they're all acting us in unison to tell us
that a massive increase in super bowl security is for our own security.
But
what about the violations of our civil liberties? What about the fact
that if the NFL wants more security at their events they should hire
private security, and that taxpayer dollars should not go to subsidize
private, for profit sporting events?
Our challenge to you: find
and send us any and all videos from major news outlets discussing the
dangers of this NFL police state event. We don't think you'll be able
to find even one.
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — You've seen it before and you'll see it again during Super Bowl week.
The
NYPD is amassing its amazing arsenal of security initiatives to make
sure the only bullets fired when the NFL comes to town are by the
quarterbacks on the football field, CBS 2's Marcia Kramer reported
Tuesday.
"Parking at MetLife Stadium will be strictly limited and
so the NFL is discouraging fans from driving to the game. Anyone who
plans to drive to the game will have to purchase a parking permit in
advance," said NYPD Counter Terrorism Bureau Inspector John O'Connell
said.
By game time the NYPD will have had a full complement of
security measures in place for a week, including: police helicopters
with special sensors to detect radiation on the ground, a counter
terrorism 360-degree camera car to look for suspicious packages, bomb
dogs, video cameras mounted as the NYPD's "eyes in the sky" at various
event locations, lots of radiation detection boats in addition to the
usual complement of heavily armed cops.
