You can’t sanction that kind of violence, huh? I’m sort of sure that if you were standing there, watching this collection of barbarians destroy that which you have dedicated you life and future to building, you wouldn’t be quite so calm and reasonable.
In a “demonstration like these” a shouting voice is lost in the noise, but the sharp sound of a 9mm is truly heard.
I think this situation calls for evil, scary, black, semi-automatic assault rifles, chambered in 5.56 or 7.62, with detachable magazines [detachable drums for the truly evil 'rethuglican'], bayonet lugs, and pistol grips.
I also think the estates of the perps should be held responsible for not only the broken windows, but also the expended ammunition.
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. :-(
