Turnabout is fair play? After all, the Fed is burning down the US.

If leftist => peaceful protest

If conservative => grounds for martial law in US

9:00am? Seriously. In daylight. People around.

I won’t say anymore. That was a seriously unserious attempt.

Back in my previous examiner career, I had business in that building. That building was secure way back then in late 90’s and early 2000’s. I imagine security is even tighter these crazy days. I doubt it was a brain surgeon carrying those gas cans. . . .

Give him the keys to the city and send him on his way if he's Antifa or Black Lives MatterTM.

My thoughts, too. 9am and two measly gas cans? Sounds like someone mentally unstable or a druggie.

Seems fair.

The FED has been incinerating our money.

Thus proving conclusively that marble doesn't burn.

He should have waited. Merrick Garland said at his confirmation hearing that attempted arson is OK if you do it at night.
