Funny to read this today. Last night was the first in a long time that I didn't hear them going off in the wee hours.

Chaos is never a good state of affairs.

“that could be cannon fire....”

[Jeff Chandler]

They should call Antifa. That way they won’t have to deal with those racist cops.

[Jeff Chandler]

“Hark! Is that a cannon I hear?”

Only a couple weeks ago, they were going off DURING THE DAY here in San Jose. My wife apparently found someone online saying that the fireworks are being set off to desensitize everyone so they won’t notice gunfire.

It sounds crazy, but given some of what’s gone down lately it doesn’t sound THAT crazy.

When the Russian Army was approaching Berlin, they kept up a constant barrage of heavy mortar fire, whether or not it was needed. They did this to demoralize and frighten the German population, particularly in Berlin.

The volume of fire was so great that it could easily be heard 100 miles away. It sounded like a distant thunderstorm that never ended.

Wonder where she read that.

Wonder also if this is something coordinated. All over. Many cities.

Aren’t these the same people who said that the election of Trump was causing them to experience the symptoms of mental illness, such as PTSD and clinical depression?

I think New Yorkers had (has) the same problem, so many, decided if they couldn’t sleep, they wouldn’t let their communist mayor sleep either. 👍

It sounds like antifa is conditioning the residents to get used to the loud report. Then they will not react to actual gunfire as much.

Definitely. Apparently antifa and BLM have brought a tremendous amount of fireworks. The idea is they are supposed to be used for violence on July 4th

first they had the money from Soros and now with billions of dollars coming from American corporations they can really go all out

It’s been happening in Las Vegas too. Not as bad in my neighborhood but where my son lives it’s every night. His poor dog is so stressed out she goes and hides in the closet.

[Secret Agent Man]

I believe that plan is true.

Note they are only doing this in areas where the black population is 15% or higher.

Maybe in SF case they have so many active socialists there it may not even matter.

Its going on around where I live. i did notice it started earlier and they are bigger and louder than typical.

[pfflier]

I guess I should have gotten to post 8 before I responded.

Bingo!

[Secret Agent Man]

they said the next phase was burning down the suburbs, killing white people.

I totally believe them.

I will be ready if shiite happens in my neighborhood.

'They said the next phase was burning down the suburbs, killing white people.'

Then we kill them back. 'Scuze me while I order a little more ammo.
