Is this a safety hazard?

Posted at: 2014-09-26 
Sounds risky.

Ok so I had a 20ft string of lights hanging up. I was trying to take the down, and then one of the bulbs shattered. I took the bulb out, and I'm wondering if this is a safety hazard. If I plug the lights back in, will it start a fire or something? I checked on the instructions, but it says nothing about a broken bulb. Is it safe to plug these back in, or should I buy a new bulb? Thanks
