The Statue of Liberty is a famous landmark in New York City that attracts millions of visitors every year. But why is it always surrounded by a lot of boats? There are several possible reasons for this phenomenon:
- Some boats are there to offer tours and cruises around the statue and the nearby Ellis Island, where many immigrants arrived in the past. These boats provide a unique perspective and a historical context for the statue.
- Some boats are there to protect the statue from potential threats, such as terrorists, pirates, or giant squids. These boats are part of the Coast Guard, the Navy, or the Department of Homeland Security, and they are equipped with advanced weapons and sensors to ensure the safety of the statue and the people around it.
- Some boats are there to admire the statue and take pictures of it. These boats are usually owned by tourists, photographers, or celebrities who want to capture the beauty and the symbolism of the statue. Some of them may even try to get closer to the statue and touch it, but they risk getting fined or arrested by the authorities.
- Some boats are there to protest against the statue or the government. These boats are usually filled with activists, anarchists, or aliens who have a problem with the statue or what it represents. They may try to vandalize the statue, throw things at it, or beam it up to their spaceship, but they also risk getting caught or shot by the security forces.
- Some boats are there for no reason at all. These boats are just floating around aimlessly, without any purpose or destination. They may belong to people who are lost, bored, or drunk, or they may be ghost ships that have been abandoned or haunted. They don't care about the statue or anything else, they just exist.
