Guest ENRAGED Posted July 5, 2006 Report Share Posted July 5, 2006 I am enraged with the towns decision to cancel the 4th of July celebration!!!!! Since when does the United States of America worry that it MIGHT rain late evening and that maybe it MIGHT be during the fireworks display?????????? This event was cancelled at 11AM who's decision was this ???? THE RECREATION DEPARTMENT ? THE POLICE DEPARTMENT ? or THE FIRE DEPARTMENT ? every other town in the teri state area had fireworks this evening !!!! Do you think that people , after working all day want to rush, cook dinner, dress the kids and then go to the fireworks on the 5th of July? I don't think so, I think that this town is going downhill FAST!!!!!! and I for one, with the taxes I pay, I am seriously thinking of moving out of a town that holds nothing sacred anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then again this might be an effort to save money to keep taxes down. Who's idea was it to cancel. Where I live now we had a beautiful display of fire works that lasted forty five minutes. This comunity reminds me of how Kearny used to be. keep in mind that dems are not big on waving the flag, burning it maybe but not showing pride and respect. Good luck in Kearny and remember in November! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was at 2:00pm. He gathered all of his grandchildren and waited with alot of other people, I can not even come close to how pissed he is. I would be too. I cannot go tonight, so my children are going to miss out. What is going on with Kearny? Have they lost the spirit or is it that there is not enough Americans left? It makes me so angry, this town is nothing what it used to be. Where are the Americans? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are way more Portugese flags flying around town than American flags. You would think that they would at least fly an American flag to celebrate the country that lets them open up their restaurants and masonary businesses. I hear next year they are going to shoot off shrimp and garlic on the 4th with the grand finale being a big explosion of paella. I knew it was bad when I found myself rooting for France today in the world cup just so I didn't have to hear the horns of broken down cars riding down my street full of 12 passengers yelling at the top of their lungs because their team won.

The Young Punk Posted July 6, 2006 Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 not only were the fireworks postponed which pissed me off but they had them today and my question is this: Since when is cher patriotic? I was happy towards the end when they began to play patriotic music, but the entire extravaganza should have had patriotic music. No Santana, Cher and who ever else they played before i put one of my headphones on and listened to my own, patriotic, music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest we know Posted July 6, 2006 Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 I believe the decision to POSTPONE (not cancel) was made by the former Ex-Superintendent of Recreation. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Who is the BOSS in Kearny? Thats who had the final say. Now Mayor are you hiding again? All towns had fireworks but KEARNY something is totally wrong with this mayor and council.

Where are the Americans? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Your absolutely right.... the majority of the people who live in Kearny now, do not know what the 4th of July signifies. Little do they realize that they wouldn't be living here if it wasn't for the freedom of our country, that we all honor the 4th of July. They don't celebrate our Independence day, but they have all their celebrations brought into our country and celebrate them here... If their celebrations are so great, why did they come here.... I am so sick of having to give up or have our traditions taken away because it offends the foriegners... TOO BAD.... AGAIN I SAY, IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT.............. GO BACK TO WHERE YOU CAME FROM, AND SHAME ON OUR GOVERNMENT FOR ALLOWING THEM TO TAKE OVER. IF WE MOVED TO ANOTHER COUNTRY, WE WOULD HAVE TO ADAPT TO THEIR LAWS AND CUSTOMS, CORRECT????????????

Where are the Americans? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Did he call the KPD? All departments (KPD, KFD & DPW) were aware of the decision to postpone at approximately 11:00am. I spoke with a KPD member that worked the desk and all callers after that time were advised they were postponed. What is very frustrating is that this info shold have been posted on the town website as the first course of action. JW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of you misinformed high school dropouts might have missed formative history lessons: America was forged on the collective skills of many immigrant groups (be it masonry OR restaurant services). I'm disgusted that "proud" Americans could have missed such fundamentals. Yes, you're bitter. Having to foster so much hate for a culture that you don't understand must be weighing pretty heavily on the chip on your shoulder. But I, for one, would rather be party to a shrimp and garlic shoot off than a celebration of blind patriotism and Nazi-esque dislike for those who wish to retain pride during the World Cup (once every four years) for their heritage. Fold up your ignorance and put it in a drawer along with mementos of all your other inadequacies. (P.S. Paella is a Spanish dish, you poor fool.)
