Fire hoses are very effective in below freezing temps.

“I wanted to be an M-60 man when I was in the Corps... Got TOW missiles instead.”

No one in my squad wanted to hump the 60. It always went to the newest Krute. I was an army combat engineer and not a Marine, so that was probably the difference. We also had a 90 mike mike per platoon and no one wanted to hump that!

Not to worry Obama met with the activists telling them “Not to loose focus”.

Community organizer doing his thing....I thought he was President, looks like he's the leader of the pack with those instructions. Ferguson protesters have looted over 100 businesses in the St. Louis area. As a result of the damage to local businesses, county officials are looking for state and federal aid.....they do the damage then ask us to clean it up and rebuild it.

The headline at Yahoo News was “Missouri governor declares state of emergency” on the thumbnail and my tin hat started spinning and beeping SOS. Trial version #5 for the White House administration?

why not hose down the streets B4 the release. A good inch of ice stops all traffic and pedestrians who don’t have spikes on their boots.

Naw, with temperatures in the teens, just a high volume, low pressure firehose should suffice.

Rioters on ice would be pretty amusing.

It would hurt TV ratings....although the pay-per-view would probably make money

Yep, this is practice.

When the ferals go “full zombie”, and homeowners start defending their neighborhoods,

the gov’t LEOs will be there to protect the zombies from the homeowners.
