To: ProtectOurFreedom

I was living in Queens during the 1977 black out and the Lebanese who owned the local grocery store came out with lawn chairs and long guns, cassette tapes and iced tea. The men of the tribe spent the night sipping iced tea, listening to mid-Eastern music and no one touched a loaf of bread in their store.

The Lebanese were BIG backers of A.2. The Italian-American family that owned the store sold it in disgust after the NYPD and rent-a-kops could not prevent the weekly robberies. The Lebanese were “hands on” people, every clerk was a cousin and they all kept 9mm under the counter.

Some of those Bull Dyke Lebianese are pretty rough!

You were in Queens? I was in rural PA during the blackout, and all we heard was horror from the city. We were all wondering when the feral blacks were going to cross the Delaware.

While they were successful this time, I would deduct points for their deliberate loss of situational awareness by playing music of any kind. A very poor tactical choice.

Defenders should keep their camp quiet in order to better hear the groups of looters approaching...
