It’s April 1968 all over again. This is exactly what outside agitators had waiting for them in Baltimore at certain street corners. Got this information from people linked in to police intelligence at that time.
Nancy Pelosi’s mayor brother Tommy, let the rioters have their way which wiped out many Jewish owned/black help small businesses. That is why Baltimore became a shithole of black extremism, incompetence and a major loss of its economic base.
Thanks Nancy. Thanks Mayor Marxist O’Malley and all the other corrupt black mayors (some are in jail now) and their white leftist/liberal Democrat machine hacks who lived high on the hog while the city went down the crapper.
#6. Re “So what? Our side has guns!” You left the SARC mark out.
We have guns but not the will to use them. The Left/Anarchists have bricks, rocks, guns, Molotov cocktains, bats, tire irons, etc. and the WILL TO USE THEM AND ARE AS I WRITE THIS.
That is the difference between Democrat-ruined cities leaders and real leaders.
If you don’t have the will to defend yourself, you’ve already lost the war to the terrorists, anarchists, communists and their Democrat Party enablers.
#12. You wouldn’t want to be on the receiver end of a brick I had thrown.
Also, some bricks and concrete blocks are smashed into smaller, more grippable projectiles. I saw this first hand in the MayDay riots in DC in 1971. Ask former Chief Jerry Wilson about that big scar on his head and how he got it.
I was grazed by a 4-5 lb round quart stone that the Maoists were throwing at the DC police. Seems like old times, doesn’t it?
Indeed it does.
When I was young I remember the Berkley KA riots.
They burned a Jaguar dealership among other atrocities.
I always thought that looting was supposed to warrant immediate use of deadly force.
But now it seems we get riots and looting every couple of years and no one is punished, or only very lightly.
And for less and less alleged justification.
Recall that only a few years ago they rioted and looted in Oakland when their team WON!
So clearly rioting is not really based on outrage, it can be celebration.
It’s very apparent the current spree is clearly NOT about a black guy that died in custody, there are other motives.
I can’t speak to every one of these instances, but the one’s I’ve seen DID look like potential construction sites. It’s pretty common now that parks use brick setting techniques for walkways around shopping malls and parks. A few of those pallets were in areas where such walkways were present, indicating possible maintenance.
BTW, when I was a kid going into Philly during the 60’s & ‘70
s cobblestone streets were pretty common in “old town”, Delaware Avenue & some of the older neighborhoods. All of that kinda stopped after the riots that were put down under police commissioner Frank Rizzo. Loose cobblestones were handy ammunition for rioters and looters. Most of those streets were gradually paved over through the 80’s and 90’s. Seems the advent of brick-setting techniques urban planners have forgotten the lesson that “Cobblestones” are bad.
Yep - some folks are laying in supplies for building cooking grills....they will light them with the Molotov cocktails that have been showing up in stolen vehicles...
In a recent video it showed some guy clad in black busting up a sidewalk with a hammer so as to provide projectiles. The line of cops was perhaps 8 feet away.
A bunch of the black protesters body-slammed the guy. Gave him a few kicks, and then hauled him over to the cops and they arrested him.
White guy with long wavy grey hair! I bet if they got rid of all the white people in these protests the violence and looting would go down by a lot. It really is a “mob” mentality. I saw one video where three people try to tip over a police car. Then a couple more people join, and then a whole hoard of people. Looked like a school of pirhanas feeding.
For sale - used bricks. Only thrown once.
Awful lot of Whites in those scenes of looting & property destruction. I suspect any college age person sitting on a bike (mobility) and talking into a cell phone as potentially ANTIFA. This is how they roll... literally.
The police station in Minneapolis and another building (both on fire) had the Antifa symbol on them - the “A” inside a circle. Also used by anarchists.
In Seattle some of the graffiti was of the hammer and cycle.
