Protesters for the second consecutive night wreaked havoc in Kenosha, Wisconsin — setting fires to buildings and facing off with authorities over the police shooting of Jacob Blake.

In defiance of an 8 p.m. curfew, the crowd set ablaze a furniture store, a building that houses the Wisconsin Department of Corrections and cars at a local dealership, according to footage posted to social media.

As long as Antifa’s troops can be bussed or mobilized, if you are an hour out of an urban center, they will come and find you when the call goes out.

Israel handles similar situations with armed drones and helos. Bus and command car never arrives.

They used to use Ruger 10/22s for riot control:

UPDATE UPDATE: I have been given further information from an anonymous source. The Ruger is used by the IDF for …

o Injuring leaders of violent demonstrations or violent participants of a violent demonstration.
o The IDF uses it as a mid-range system that is “less lethal than” military caliber rifles (5.56mm/7.62mm) and capable of hurting severely enough to stop them using committing violence (throwing rocks or molotov cocktails).
o Can be used more accuracy at distances, unlike a rubber bullet or baton round.
o It is used when it is not safe enough to get close enough to use a rubber bullet or baton round.

“When they are all burnt down, it will end.”

Then they will shift to another area... rinse, lather, repeat.
