I am confused. Why not use a V-MAD truck? A Vehicle Mounted Active Denial System stops riots without guns, batons, spray or gas.

The mayor has to allow them to use tear gas and pepper spray to disperse this crowd of idiots. It is wrong to tie the hands of the police and then ask them to do this.

“Following criticism of officers’ use of tear gas and pepper spray during recent protests against police brutality, a federal judge issued a 14-day order banning the tactics.”

Judges have this kind of authority?

At the very beginning of this I was thinking about how the MOVE thing ended. But I’m guessing not - it’s not like they are all holed up in one area.

Now Kent State..... I hope not - that would be really bad. Although when the “protestors” have AKs, ARs and the tall buildings - it could turn into a shooting battle. Especially if the police can’t use gas, pepper spray, and the other non-lethal weapons.

Cowardly mayors are experts at ‘Walking Back’ such statements made by them.

KOMO TV said the protestors moved out last night...This sounds like old news. As far as I see the city is cleaning up the garbage.

I think are in cahoots.

If this goes peacefully, IMO, it’s because an agreement was reached between the mayor and the CHOP, OR the dems/liberals/$oro$ have something else in the works that they are needed for.

I’m going out on a limb here, but I think the autonomous zone thing did not pan out as expected, especially when nobody else let another one get set up.

I think they are going to drop back and punt, and wonder what is next on tap.

Prepping is continuing.

My first thought too. Looking at the trucks, especially with the covered rear wheels look foreign. I am thinking, looking at some of the soldiers it looks like they are wearing blue and red berets. I am leaning toward France right now. It did give me an idea to convert one of my 1/35 Russian airport fire trucks to anti riot mode with Russian police decals.

Seriously, surround them all and arrest them, shoot anyone who resists, and ship them off to Guantanamo. Once there, transfer many to Saudi Arabia. Let them live in tents in the desert.

They are revolutionaries, there is a Che, a Stalin, many Hitlers and for sure a Castro among them. Why suffer them to live? It is America or the punks, a time for choosing.
