Amen to that, RO. My Class IIIs would relish the ‘workout’.

A firebomb is one thing... that’s a matter of life and death. Smashing windows is not. I think that’s where appropriate use of deadly force is open for discussion.

I don’t live in Seattle, I just work here. Most of the time it’s a great place to be, it just whacks out now and then.

I had to laugh when I left work this afternoon. Waiting for my bus across from the Wells Fargo Building (the target of today’s festivities), I saw the entire block taken up by news vans, just waiting for carnage so they can report it.

The entrance to the Wells Fargo building was wrapped in yellow caution tape, like that’s REALLY going to deter anyone.

“Wouldn’t surprise me if the ones doing the damage are undercover cops.”

Huh? Please explain.

In a “demonstration like these” a shouting voice is lost in the noise, but the sharp sound of a 9mm is truly heard.

I wouldn't want to get that close. The smell might overcome me. I'd prefer 7.62 mm, and not that wimpy Russian "short" version. Although their 7.62x54R would do the job. But what I've got is 7.62x51, aka 7.62Nato. I'd say use Ma Duece, but I don't have one of those, or anything that fires her caliber either. :-(

That might make for a good scene in a Hollywood movie but the perps would probably be portrayed as martyrs.
