>> shocking footage of a police-involved shooting in ohio. the city of akron is now cancelling public events and bracing for protests after police today released video that shows officers firing multiple rounds into a black man, after he fled a traffic stop. welcome to fox news live. i'm alicia acuna in for arthel neville. >> i'm rich edson. police tried to pull over a 25-year-old man for a traffic violation. the police say he refused to stop his car, fired at officers during the chase, then jumped
1:01 pm
out of his rolling vehicle and ran off. police say they tried using a stun gun to stop walker and when that failed, they opened fire. eight officers shot as many as 90 rounds. claudia cowan is following the story in los angeles. >> the shooting happened last monday after police in akron, ohio pulled over 25-year-old walker for a traffic violation. exactly what it was is unclear, but walker allegedly sped off and a routine traffic stop became a public safety threat, after police say an apparent gunshot was fired from walker's car, while cops were chasing him. police say body cam video captured what they believe was a muzzle flash from the car early in the chase. walker at some point abandoned his vehicle and the pursuit became a foot chase with eight officers yelling at him to stop. this is video of what happened next. we want to warn you, it is hard to watch and hard to hear because it shows officers firing dozens of shots in a matter of
1:02 pm
seconds. again, this video is graphic. the police chief says it appears walker turned toward the officers in a way that led them to believe he was armed, but he says they will be held to account. >> when an officer makes the most critical decision in his or her life as a police officer, it doesn't matter where in the country this happens, when they make the most critical decision to point their firearm at another human being and pull the trigger, they've got to be ready to explain why they did what they did. >> lawyer for walker's family spoke after the city's press conference today, showing jalen's picture. according to his family, the young man was a door dash delivery driver who stayed away from trouble, with the city on edge and demanding answers and protests starting to grow, the mayor and walker's relatives are pleading for calm.
1:03 pm
>> if you can do anything for the family, please give peace, give dignity, and give justice a chance. >> a firearm was discovered in walker's car, and a shell casing that may have come from that gun is now part of the ongoing investigation. while the police chief acknowledged that body cam video was difficult to watch, he says he's not passing judgment until the investigation is complete, and he praised the walker family for their call for peace tonight. rich? >> claudia cowan live in los angeles, thank you. alicia? >> a fiery crash killed a driver at a michigan air show on saturday. warning to our viewers that the video we're about to show you may be disturbing. chris darnell was behind the wheel of the shockwaves jet truck in the video. he was racing two when his vehicle flipped over multiple times and burst into flames. the truck was going roughly 300
1:04 pm
miles-an-hour at the time of the crash. darnell's father says the accident was a quote result of mechanical failure on the jet track. the incident is still under investigation. texas yoga teacher accused of killing a pro cyclist in a love triangle murder is back in the united states after six weeks on the run. kaitlyn armstrong arrived in houston yesterday after she was captured in costa rica last week. videos and images show she cut her hair and dyed it darker before her capture. armstrong was last seen on may 12th flying from austin, texas to new york's la guardia airport. officials say she then took a flight out of newark airport in new jersey to costa rica using another person's passport to flee the country. armstrong is wanted in the murder of mariah wilson may 11th after wilson spent the day with armstrong's boyfriend. she also faces federal charges of avoiding prosecution. another tough day for air travel this weekend. here's a live look at philadelphia international
1:05 pm
airport, one of many where thousands of flight cancellations nationwide and delays have stranded travelers this weekend. airlines blame staffing shortages and bad weather. charles watson is live at hartsfield-jackson international airport in atlanta. charles? >> yeah, hey, good afternoon, rich. hartsfield jackson atlanta international certainly living up to its name as one of the world's busiest. we've seen a lot of folks moving in and out of this airport today. in fact, you can see some groups of people, passengers taking a quick break before they head out on their travels today. we have heard from quite a few folks today who say they are showing up three to four hours before their flight even takes off in an effort to try to avoid any hiccups, but with the airlines dealing with crippling staffing shortages, folks tell me, they are just learning to work with the delays >> right now we're sitting over here playing cards because they're short staffed and we can't check in and get in there in time. we're waiting for more people to
1:06 pm
come in. >> taking a look at today's numbers on flight aware, more than 2300 u.s. flights delayed and about 270 cancelled. the airlines struggling to keep up with demand in part due to the cripple staffing shortages i mentioned, namely the number of available pilots and flight attendants. just the other day we saw more than 1200 delta pilots hit the picket lines in seven cities including here in atlanta, the home of delta. their demand was higher pay after clocking record overtime already this year. all of those issues of course running right up against the surge in holiday travelers. on saturday, the tsa screening well over 2.1 million passengers at airports across the country. that's about 92% of the total number of people screened pre-pandemic on the same day in 2019 for a little perspective. but this time around feels a bit more stressful to some, particularly for one woman we spoke to today who says she's leading a group of 20 on a missionary trip to alaska with
1:07 pm
little time to spare. take a listen. >> we have a layover in seattle, and so once we get to seattle, we have an hour, that's not a big window to get through. last year we traveled on the same trip, and we did miss our flight. that was a little bit chaotic trying to get home. but hopefully everything works out. >> adding a little bit more chaos to the mix, rich, american airlines had a glitch with their system knocking off thousands of flights at the end of july, heading into august. they say most if not all of those issues have been fixed. those flights have been restored. but another headache to deal with. rich? >> glitches, pilot strikes, everything, charles watson live in hartsfield-jackson in atlanta, thank you. alicia? >> rich, jeff bezos is slamming president biden for asking gas companies yesterday to lower their prices at the pump. bezos tweeting quote inflation is far too important a problem for the white house to keep making statements like this.
1:08 pm
it's either straight ahead misdirection or a deep misunderstanding of basic market dynamics. gas prices have been slowly dropping lately, but remember, the average per gallon was 2.39 when the president took office, 3.53 when russia invaded ukraine in february, and today the average is 4.81. new jersey republican congressman joins us now. he's a member of the transportation and infrastructure committee. congressman, welcome, and thank you for being here. before we get started, i want to put up the white house response to bezos' criticism. white house press secretary tweeting quote, oil prices have dropped by about $15 over the past month, but prices at the pump have barely come down. that's not basic market dynamics. it's a market that is failing the american consumer. your response? >> the president's being intellectually dishonest.
1:09 pm
we're playing with fractions right here. frankly, what he's doing is what he always does for all the problems that he's created the blame game, the blame falls within. you know what leadership is? what a real president does? a real president stands up and says look, i made a real bad mistake when i limited the number of permits out there. i increased the red tape out there. and i just closed down the oil industry in every single way i could. how could the prices not go up? he wants to blame ukraine or the war in ukraine, and that's nonsense as well because frankly, if he had been a strong president, and he's not, he's weak, and he's feckless, and, you know, putin knew that, so he went ahead with this war. this would have never happened with a strong president. i guarantee you if donald trump was there, this wouldn't have happened. he would have stood up and told putin and stop it, and it wouldn't have occurred. this is all, every bit of it is
1:10 pm
due to this president and his bad misplaced policies, and he's blaming others, and you know, he may be competently impaired, but he seems to be smart enough to always blame somebody else for his own screw-ups. >> south dakota governor republican was slamming biden's energy policy. >> a lot of energy policies should be addressed. o lot of them opening up american energy supply again, wish he couldn't have cancelled the keystone pipeline, stopped drilling on federal lands. he's made us up much more dependent on foreign soil. >> you seem to share the same sentiment. should the midterms go your party's way in november, and assuming gas prices are going to continue to be similar to what
1:11 pm
they are, what is your party willing to do to help americans out in the future, what can you do? >> we'll never vote to perpetuate policies like that. unfortunately, that was an executive order. most of the bad things he's done certainly have been initiated by him and pushed through congress. we're not going for anything like that. secondly, we are going to squeeze him as hard as we can because he's got to know that this is not acceptable, and that we want to open this energy portfolio up, and that we can help people. the issue here is we're number one in energy. actually we should be number one in everything, and we could be, but we cant because of him, but we have the potential to be number one in energy. instead he crawls on his knees to venezuela, to the mideast, to iran, to individuals and groups that are literally bad and evil to their core and begs them, and that's the wrong thing to do, so we're not going to do that. and we're going to squeeze the
1:12 pm
daylights out of him to do the right thing, if he's going to want anything from this new congress, he bet dore some listening. -- he better do some listening. >> i would like to move on to the midterms and future elections because with roe v. wade being overturned, you know that for republicans, the abortion issue was a turnout machine for your party, ever since 1973. so now what are you going to do? how concerned are you about those single issue voters who you were able to get out there to the polls, for voting when they were voting on abortion, when now roe v. wade has been overturned? >> well, those folks are going to still be out there. they understand what's going on. they understand that there are folks that are fighting to pack the supreme court, and when i say folks, i mean again, this president, this majority party. they want to destroy our institutions in so many ways, and one of them is a supreme court. they're talking about making
1:13 pm
special exceptions for certain issues. frankly, i don't think they understand what the supreme court is and what constitutionality is. a lot of those people who vote understand that. in fact, most of them do. they are still going to come out. do you know who is going to come out? the people who were paying so much for milk and eggs, the people who literally are paying so much for gas, the people who, yeah, they may get a pay raise, but it in no way covers all the expenses they have because everything costs more. the farmers are going to come out because the fertilizer is going to cost more. the people worried about safety are going to come out because they are going to be worried that literally the crime rate in every city is going up, and we're letting bad people out to commit violent crimes as fast as they come in. we need a much better system with that. they are going to come out because they don't like what this president and what this majority party is doing to our military and making it so much weaker than it should be and
1:14 pm
could be. they are going to come out because of the bread and butter issues. they are going to come out because they want america to be the america we know and love, and we can bring it back. >> new jersey republican congressman jeff andrew, thank you so much for your time today. >> thank you very much. >> rich? >> as americans flock to beaches this holiday weekend, officials are warming swimmers of several shark sightings along the atlantic coast with one reported attack in florida. alexis mcadams is live on long island new york where a life guard was attacked by a shark just this morning. alexis? >> that life guard is expected to be okay, but investigators say he was bit at least two times, once in the head, once in the chest. he's getting stitches at a local hospital. this comes as they continue to ramp up patrols as there's more shark sightings every single day. take a look at the screen. this is what the shark patrols look like along long island. they have them nearly every
1:15 pm
single summer. the shark patrol teams use helicopters to look at the waters from above as they look out for sharks. life guards are on foot using drones and out on jet skis to monitor more than 100 miles of long island beaches along the atlantic ocean. so far this summer a 10 foot shark was found washed up at point lookout, a few miles away from where i am, and also a few days ago, police say a man was attacked by what they believe was a shark at that time. his leg fractured from the bite. >> when there's a shark sighting, the first thing the life guards do is get everybody out of the water. we will track it to make sure that it's safe and that the shark leaves the area where people are bathing. >> over this holiday weekend, officials say a florida teen was attacked by a shark. the 17-year-old still in the hospital badly injured, after investigators she was bit by quite a big shark. the animal clamped its jaws right on to her right thigh. >> she was fighting the shark,
1:16 pm
like trying to pull it off of her leg with her bare hands. she has bite marks on her hands. poked it in the eye. she woke up with a good sense of humor about it and smiling, and she's joking with us, and i mean, that's a blessing. that's a blessing because we could have lost her yesterday. >> and her brother saved her life there in that situation. out on cape cod great white sharks are showing up by the day just in time for the busy tourist season. those sharks coming in as the cape waters warm up. their peak season for the sharks is august through october. according to the international shark attack file, 73 unprovoked shark bites in their records in 2021 globally and also nine fatal bites. back out here live, another update on that, they think at least two people so far here on long island in the past few days including one this morning have been bitten by sharks. the man had his leg fractured. they are looking into exactly what happened they say from that
1:17 pm
bite. it just broke at least one or two bones in his leg. they are telling people just keep on the lookout for the sharks. if they get a sighting, they clear the water. they want everybody to know they are rare, but rich, they do happen. back to you. >> yikes, alexis mcadams live on long island, thanks. alicia? >> there is growing concern for the safety of the conservative justices of the supreme court, as illegal protests continue near their homes. now two republican governors are turning up the heat on attorney general merrick garland. what they are asking for next. life... doesn't stop for diabetes. be ready for every moment, with glucerna. it's the number one doctor recommended brand that is scientifically designed to help manage your blood sugar. live every moment. glucerna. if your moderate to severe crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis symptoms are stopping you in your tracks... choose stelara® from the start... and move toward relief after the first dose...

duckduckgo is a free all in one privacy app with a built in search engine, web browser, one click data clearing and more stop companies like google from watching you, by downloading the app today. duckduckgo: privacy, simplified. >> rich: warning about the safety of supreme court justices as protesters continue to gather outside their homes. the governors of maryland and virginia are calling on attorney general merrick garland to enforce laws that protect judges from intimidation. alexandria hough is live in washington with the latest. alexandria? >> rich, federal law states that it is illegal to protest near the home of a judge or justice, with the intent to influence them. so when the leak of the draft roe v. wade opinion sparked protests in front of the supreme court justices' homes who lived in maryland and virginia, maryland governor larry hogan and virginia governor glenn youngkin called on the department of justice to act.
1:22 pm
here's youngkin back in may. >> it is on the federal books that in fact that's punishable with up to a year in prison. and therefore, governor hogan and i have asked the attorney general to do his job and enforce this law. >> according to governor hogan's office the issue was taken to attorney general merrick garland in early may, but quote, a month later, hours after an assassination attempt on justice kavanaugh, the department of justice finally responded declining to enforce the laws. now, a different federal official is writing to us with conflicting information. that's in reference to a letter hogan and youngkin received this weekend from supreme court marshal demanding that state authorities put an end to what she described as increased threatening activity outside of the justices' homes. both governors said they will continue to utilize law enforcement to the extent that their state laws allow, but a spokesperson for governor youngkin said quote the attorney general for the u.s. should do his job by enforcing the much more robust federal law. every resource of federal law
1:23 pm
enforcement, including the u.s. marshals should be involved while the justices continue to be denied the right to live peacefully in their homes. while the justice department has not stopped any of the protests, u.s. marshals have assisted with security. rich? >> rich: thanks, alexandria, live in d.c. joe biden is running for reelection, and i will be his ticket mate. >> if he decides to run, he's a sitting president, and, you know -- >> would you endorse him? >> look, i would endorse our sitting president, yes, of course, you know, this is a silly question. >> alicia: top democrats insist they are behind president biden if he runs for reelection. the president has said multiple times he intends to run in 2024. but that's not doing much to stop the chatter about other possible contenders. a recent poll by harris and harvard university shows 71% of registered voters say biden should not run again. when asked why, 45% said flat
1:24 pm
out he's a bad president. 30% say he's too old. while 26% it's time for a change. let's bring in byron york, chief political correspondent for the washington examiner. good to see you, byron. before we get started here, i want you to take a listen to jeh johnson from the obama administration talking this morning about the topic. >> i don't know that joe biden has definitively made up his mind to run in 2024. i'm sure at some point he's going to have that conversation with his family. my advice would be unconventional, if you are not running, make that announcement sooner rather than later. >> alicia: sooner than later, what do you think the cal lags is there? -- what do you think the calculation is there? >> well, i think the former homeland security secretary johnson was thinking in terms of what's best for the democratic
1:25 pm
party. this could give the democratic party more time to find a successor to joe biden. i think what joe biden hears is no, no way because the moment he announces he's not running again, all of the talk, the whole conversation turns to who is going to be the next democratic nominee for president. now, if the president himself is not running for reelection. it is kind of like the situation you have in the republican party where if donald trump announced today that he is not going to run in 2024, the whole conversation would shift to who is. so president biden is really stuck right now in this position of saying that he will run, even if he himself has doubts about it. >> alicia: he doesn't exactly have strong support out there publicly either from people in his own party. one example here, we were doing an interview with colorado senator incumbent democrat michael bennett, in the lead-up to the primaries. one of the questions we asked him was, quote, biden won in colorado in 2020, do you want
1:26 pm
him to campaign for you here in colorado? her's his answer, quote -- here he issize answer -- here's his answer, quote, he came out to the state when we had the terrible fires at the end of last year, to show the federal government was trying to respond. so i mean i think that was helpful, and if we have a need like that again, i would be glad to have him. otherwise, i haven't given that much thought. biden won colorado by 12 1/2 points and he hasn't thought about it? >> that was not exactly a yes, was it? >> alicia: right. >> this is the problem that democrats knew they were going to have. i mean, joe biden's age has always been known. he will be 80 this november, 82 at the end of his term. and he's got a lot of things going against him right now. first are a bunch of really really bad issues. the biggest and most serious being inflation. and you saw in that harvard
1:27 pm
harris poll that the largest single group of people just thought he hasn't done a good job as president. but then there are those who think is too old, and he's most definitely too old they believe for a second term which would last until he's 86 years old. the question then is who in the world could succeed him? the problem democrats face is that the vice president, kamala harris, the natural heir, the natural successor is not really very popular with the voters either. >> alicia: right, you bring up the next point that i was going to ask you about which is the the democratic bench. they are kind of in a strange situation here because it is before the midterms. they don't want to have a lame duck president by saying he's not going to run, but then they have a bench issue here, don't they? >> yeah, well, if you remember, in 2020, they had a really big primary race. 20 plus democrats were running, and, you know, i think it is fair to say that every single
1:28 pm
one of them wants to run again, including bernie sanders, the only candidate who was older than joe biden. so, you know, pete buttigieg, elizabeth warren, they all want to run, and of course kamala harris was part of that field, and became vice president. but listen, i think democrats would have a very hard time -- if president biden were not to run, they would have a very hard time rejecting the sitting vice president, obvious successor, plus the first vice president who is a woman of color. it would be very hard for the democratic party to say we're going to pick somebody else. >> alicia: while this is going on, the republicans are sitting there behind the scenes also wondering when the former president is going to make his decision about running and when it is going to be made public. >> we have been hearing some gossip and rumors out of trump world that perhaps donald trump will announce sooner rather than later that he's running for another term in 2024.
1:29 pm
that would really throw an x factor into the midterm races. i think a lot of republican strategists would rather that not happen because they want their clients' races for the house and the senate to be about the house and the senate and not all about donald trump, and donald trump tends to make whatever he's doing all about donald trump. but he is going to have to make a decision sometime. what is interesting right now is we do see a significant number of republicans who appreciate trump's achievements. they supported trump. they think he was a good president, but they also think it is time to move on. either they think he should just let it go. they don't like the obsession with the 2020 election. they just think it is time for a change. something like that. so we'll see how strong they are in the republican party if trump chooses to run again. >> alicia: okay. byron york from the washington
1:30 pm
examer -- washington examiner, thank you. >> thank you. >> alicia: rich? >> rich: another military victory for russia in ukraine bringing putin one step closer to controlling an entire region in the east. russia's defense minister says their forces have taken the last major city in ukraine's province. we have the latest. nate? >> rich, good afternoon. after a denial from president vladimir zelenskyy, ukraine's armed forces released a statement indicating a tactical withdrawal which as you mentioned was the final holdout in that region which means the region is now under russian control after months of bloody conflict there. take a look at this video of russian troops out east. this has been their focus ever since pulling out of kyiv months ago after failing to take the capital city. now that this region has been taken, many expect russia to push for control of the other region that makes up that area.
1:31 pm
about 50 miles west, take a look at this, rich. another tragedy today, local officials say at least six civilians were killed and 15 hurt after intense russian shelling in an eastern city. fox news is working to irntly verify that number -- independently verify that number, but we know it was said that it is the worst shelling they have seen. take a look at this map. ukrainian officials say they are seeing a lot of activity from belarus troops in the southwestern corner of belarus. listen to this assessment. >> translator: according to information from july 1st, the republic of belarus armed forces began taking units in the [inaudible] region. -- [inaudible] are reinforced by eastern military district of the russian federation armed forces. >> this comes as belarus president accuses of ukraine
1:32 pm
trying to target military targets in his country four days ago unsuccessfully. that region where you just heard where there's a lot of activity is north from where we are. the mayor here met with leadership for the plan for the possibility of a belarus invasion. we hope to learn more about that plan. back to you. >> rich: thank you, nate. 240 years ago an event that changed the course of american history. we will take you to harbor fest in boston where they are giving visitors a reenactment for the ages. fireworks are a staple for the 4th of july, but supply shortage is threatening that. will the show go on? that's straight ahead. . boost® high protein also has key nutrients for immune support. boost® high protein.

1:37 pm
the boston tea party. fox nation host is live in boston with more. hi, abby. >> hey, alicia. that's right. we are here in boston because of everything that happened here that eventually led to our independence, one of those things was the boston tea party back in 1773. we went to the boston tea party [inaudible] and museum to learn more about the significance of that moment. like the fact there were over 100 members of the sons of liberty that snuck on to the dartmouth, [inaudible] and the eleanor to destroy the shipment of tea aboard as a well to protest. some were even teens. something to note, many of those crates weighed up to 400 pounds, so it took the col onnists almost three hours to destroy all that tea. it was a spark plug for the american revolution. i asked the creative manager of the museum what role the boston
1:38 pm
tea party played in our history on road to freedom. here's what he had to say. >> we take a look at the boston tea party as the most important event leading up to the american revolution. it was the catalyst and propelled america to the revolution and led to where we are today. the punishment of boston and england's response to the tea destruction propelled america down the road to revolution. >> i think something that's not talked about enough is the fact that it wasn't just tea on those ships. there was other cargo. there were books on there. they weren't just looking to destroy everything. it was a targeted effort for an act of defiance for our independence. here we are all these years later celebrating our freedom. alicia? >> alicia: love this history lesson, thank you so much. you can celebrate america with us here on fox news channel all weekend long. join pete hegseth, rachel campos duffy and will cain tonight at
1:39 pm
10:00 p.m. eastern for a special celebration at west point with fireworks and music from the west point band. then tomorrow night at 8:00 p.m. eastern, fox news presents an independence day special with joey jones, lawrence jones, kay lee mcenany. it will include music fireworks from d.c. and boston and much more. >> rich: you can't have a 4th of july show without fireworks but some cities are having to do with that. the american pyrotechnic association says supply chain problems have disrupted the entire industry which is largely made up of smaller businesses. the association reports inflation is also taking a toll with the cost of supplies of 20%, shipping up 50% and overall costs up 35%. joining us now the chairman of the shipping company salvatore style. thank you very much for joining us this afternoon. what's going on here? >> what's going on is we have to
1:40 pm
put into perspective that the 4th of july it takes many many months of planning before a lot of these companies can put on shows. with the uncertainty of the supply chain, where like you just mentioned, supply costs, containers have been up 50, 75 percent, how do you bring that in and have the uncertainty if it is going to be here on time? plus if it does get here on time, right now we have 50 containers at the port of long beach in l.a. just sitting at the terminals. many of them are days old sitting there to get to other regions of the country. it is almost impossible to land especially since it is a one day event for the country. this is what's going on. adding insult to injury, we have, you know, the united states as a nation of our stature ranked the lowest in the entire world for efficiency, so i think you cannot be an importer in today's day and age without having a tremendous
1:41 pm
amount of uncertainty and risk. >> rich: you know, i think that would be a pretty good pitch for the fireworks companies to do easter fireworks, but, you know, you talked about the ports here, and this is an issue we have heard an awful lot about among the number of the supply chain issues. ships unable to unload or unable to get their stuff unloaded at ports. what's going on at ports, and why are you u.s. ports ranked so lowly? >> well, there's a myriad of reasons, but given the limited amount of time i have, i will just say that the automation which could increase the ports dramatically is something that's contested by the longshoremen which by the way their contract just expired july 1st, so they are still in talks, and they said publicly there won't be a service disruption, but there's a fight between pacific maritime association which wants to automate and the longshoremen which want to protect their members, many of whom are making over $200,000 a year. one thing i would like to bring to everyone's attention. i'm getting a little sick and tired of a lot of the experts

out there using what i call statistical spinners where they are using these date ranges to make things a lot better than what they really are. it really offsets the reality of how bad the situation is. another thing is retailers now, some of the largest in the world are looking to make products that are seasonless that could have longer life cycles from one season to the other because they're not concerned that the supply chain is going to be much better next year -- actually they are very concerned it is going to be delayed, so we have all these things going on, and to add this, even myself personally, i ordered something online. i went to return it. the retailer said you know what? it is too expenive to take it back. we don't have the warehousing to hold it. just keep it. now they can't return things? it is less expensive for them to not restock it? it is out of control. >> rich: look at what we could be talking about even next year
1:43 pm
as far as delays. i want to show you a quote from the washington post. this ran a short while ago. this is timothy jamison, an owner of fireworks display company. quote, companies are realizing that if they don't start ordering 18 months ahead, which means they're already late for ordering for 2023, they're going to keep facing this problem. if you are a company trying to get fireworks, by 4th of july next year, are you already late to the game if you haven't put your order in yet? >> well, not only could you possibly be late to the game, but you have no idea how to price the freight rates which are substantial. are you going to take a loss? are you going to still not be able to deliver? there's such a myriad of issues that i can't give the solution to the firework companies. all i can say is too bad they couldn't have the 4th of july celebrated more frequently because it's really going to have a tremendous impact on them. >> rich: salvatore style, thank
