“Garcia held a press conference Friday to warn anyone who finds a rocket launcher not to touch the weapon and instead call police immediately.”

Snerk. For some reason, that line just cracks me up.

“That message came after Taylor picked up the rocket launcher Thursday and posed with it for a photograph. “Obviously, I didn’t push the trigger and I was careful,” Taylor said.”

Um, judging from that picture, you’re lucky you’re still walking this earth, pal. I guess Officer Garcia has a point, after all.

Who was going to visit the Vancouver area in the next few days?

I remember a story like this earlier this year or late last year out of Atlanta perhaps. A guy found an RPG in his back yard.

"We are concerned with the fact that a live piece of equipment was found on the side of the road and we have to determine how it came to be there,"

Well, it IS deer season........

Maybe Bruce Cockburn should be contacted:

Here comes the helicopter — second time today
Everybody scatters and hopes it goes away
How many kids they’ve murdered only God can say
If I had a rocket launcher...I’d make somebody pay

I don’t believe in guarded borders and I don’t believe in hate
I don’t believe in generals or their stinking torture states
And when I talk with the survivors of things too sickening to relate
If I had a rocket launcher...I would retaliate

On the Rio Lacantun, one hundred thousand wait
To fall down from starvation — or some less humane fate
Cry for guatemala, with a corpse in every gate
If I had a rocket launcher...I would not hesitate

I want to raise every voice — at least I’ve got to try
Every time I think about it water rises to my eyes.
Situation desperate, echoes of the victims cry
If I had a rocket launcher...Some son of a bitch would die

What a putz! Hint, doofus: it’s just as dangerous behind as in front!

This is only 15 miles or so from my house. Dang, I wish I had found it first. At least it wouldn’t be destroyed for no reason, and I’d have fun with it. Once. But that tree that’s been annoying me at the reservoir wouldn’t be there anymore...

It was likely left behind by one of the many jihadist groups now training in the USA and Canada. There was one group in Washington State.Another one in upstate New York, Islamberg.

The miitary did not likely drop it, these things are COUNTED
repeatedly if removed from arsenal.

The serial numbers will tell the tale.But will we ever know? Unlikely.

My bet is that it was stolen from a US military installation, but it is strange to be found near a Canadian Naval base.Another jihadi training run? THe Canadian Navy has no use for these, I doubt there are any on the base.

Looks like just the tube without the 66mm rocket.

Maybe Bruce Cockburn finally got his rocket launcher.

Did he extend the tube or did he find it that way? That baby is armed and ready to go!

I wouldn’t call it a rocket grenade. It has a shape charge for blasting through armor.
