Gradonačelniku Los Angelesa Ericu Garcettiju pala je na pamet ono za što je mislio da je Velika ideja, kojoj je namjena bila da odvrati građane od puštanja vatrometa na 4. srpnja, ali mu se u velikoj mjeri obila o glavu.
Evo Garcettijeve Velike ideje:
#Fireworks are illegal in the City of Los Angeles and even small ones can cause a lot of damage.
This watermelon was completely destroyed by a firework the size of a stick of gum.
🎆 This #FourthOfJuly be safe, find a professional show near you: https://t.co/gow9utbD5K pic.twitter.com/KHqrJZDVba

In his next safety video, Mayor Garcetti will demonstrate the danger of supplying free beer to all the kids at the skate parkhttps://t.co/r56amK2U3w

This AWESOME EXPLODING WATERMELON VIDEO may not be the most effective way to get people not to use illegal fireworks. https://t.co/WvdeJ9LYtg

Under no circumstances should you allow a watermelon to play with fireworks https://t.co/LqJ5OI8ocq

You idiot, you just made fireworks seem even cooler than they already are. https://t.co/mgZHV5lx8Q

Friendly advice: if you want to convince Americans not to use fireworks over the 4th of July, don’t use an awesome video of fireworks blowing up a watermelon to make your point. https://t.co/hAF520JMco

From a social media and communications perspective, I'm not sure this tweet will have the effect it was intended to have. https://t.co/WyfmdDWu0X
