It's tough to have an accurate drill when there are no crowds or parade and you just have to imagine them. Besides, some extra security is a good idea this year on light of Paris....and the video threats ISIS made toward NYC.  |

Being a sniper at the Macy's parade would be like looking at a gigantic moving "Where's Waldo" poster with conflicting reports coming into your right ear from your radio describing what Waldo looks like today. Not going to happen. |
