Next time you have some negative thoughts about our awesome
police department, remember today, remember the guy
in Times Sq with the machine gun a
few months back and remember ALL they do everyday, placing
themselves in harms way to protect you,
your family and your
way of life. Underappreciated and underpaid.

The guy who walked up and opened that car door was the bravest man we'll see in a long time.

couldn't agree more! I love NYC and thanks to the eyes and ears of that great city, they will collectively keep it safe. The wonderful people of the NYPD, FDNY and the people of NYC itself are among the greatest on the planet.

The way they handled it, and how brave they were makes me just want to give them a hug, ad tell them all thank you

Last night was just further proof that they're absolute aces. If they hadn't handled the situation with the calm and order that they did, there would have been a panic.

Yes, thank you to New York's finest--and thank you to the T-shirt vendor who alerted them. He's a Vietnam vet, so thank you to everyone who serves to protect us.

So glad it wasn't worse! Praise and thanks to all the brave men and women of NYPD.

In order to give back, I am offering free massages to all uniformed personnel involved.

And what are you giving Lance, the heroic T-shirt vendor?

We all have to do our part.

And yes, this was a VERY nice save from the NYPD and co.

Go up and thank a cop today. And buy a T-shirt from a vendor, especially if you see Lance.

I'm so thankful for the amazing job they did last night...if it wasn't for them (and the t-shirt vendor who reported the smoking car) things could have been so much worse.

I like that idea - let's go buy a t shirt from that vendor. Not only did he save many lives but he is a Vet from one of the most unappreciated groups of veterans, the Vietnam war. That makes him a double hero! Here's to the police and bomb squad, part of NY's finest for sure!
