Approximately 10 minutes later, police tweeted that the connector had been reopened since they moved the protesters off of the roadway.

Connecticut State Police troopers and members of New Haven Police Department say they made arrests, but did not specify what for.

Such extreme measures are not need yet. “MilSpec” paintball
guns, copies of M2HB especially, would do nicely. Especially if filled with CS.

Back in the day, at the U of MD, the protesters used to block US Rt 1 every spring. In 1970, a military vehicle collector brought out his M3 Armored Scout Car (WWII vintage), buttoned it up, and drove through the mob a couple of times. Cleared the street worth a treat!

Don’t try this with a conventional car though. I got stuck in the same crowd on the same day when I turned onto Rt 1 from a side street. Took the State Police to extract me and my Ford Falcon, and the rioters did a lot of damage to the Falcon.

“The Scoops are coming!”

Always did like this idea for riot control.

Between this and “alternative facts” I’d say that the Peter Principle is in effect.


Beat the protest like baby seals.

It is time to bring out the shotgun squad for the BLM protests. Issue no “less than lethal” loads; only buckshot and slugs. Ok, ok, have a couple of officers with rock salt loads.
Time to get that railroad iron and razor wire aftermarket front bumper and the bulletproof film for the glass on my SUV.
