I knew you all needed to know this pithy bit of data. Whole books and workshops and institutions were founded on "color-related auric readings, for healings, self-improvement, etc.
To wit, so I never wore orange during those years; it always struck me as an "sexual invitation". Anyway....
This is what grew out of the "What color is your parachute" book years....
You're right. Horses have a "presence" that can't be beat, police cruisers don't have it but a horse is something else in crowds. I think too, most people are afraid or leery of horses, which helps and too, there is a no-no about hitting, tormenting, aggravating a horse whereas they'll trash and burn a cruiser in a heart-beat.
Thanks, lol. Yep, I caught the comment. In fact, I watched the whole clip, and throughout... I kept hearing the Slogan “Change you Can Believe In”... sort of dying down to barely a whisper.
“The visuals are there, but where is the tang of teargas, the satisfying thwack of batons on hippy skulls, the panicked mouse-squeak of trapped media?”
Colorful description. Coincidentally I recently researched batons as a concealed weapon. I think I’ll buy one now. Thanks.
During a G-8 protest a few years ago, I saw a video of mounted police confronting a surly, threatening mob of masked protestors in a parking lot. The cops advanced, at a canter rather than a gallop.
The hippies broke and fled in all directions, leaving a litter of backpacks, obscene protest signs, water bottles, and (for all I know) abandoned birkenstocks. It was a veritable moonbat Mitla Pass.
The cops needed only sabers and fur hats to ride them down Cossack style.
What a great image. I think that G-8 you're talking about was in Seattle, right?
a veritable moonbat Mitla Pass. Good one!!
Um, no. Why does Alaska always wind up being where people want to dump the dregs? The men and women who WORK in the Alaskan oilfieds are PROFESSIONALS. They work hard, long hours under horrible conditions, and they earn good money for it.
I say, send these crybabies to N. Korea or China, where they think the governments suit them better.
Apologies, it was a reference to Siberia and what they are asking for. I subscribe to your solution also.
Thanks! I believe it was Seattle, yes.

I understand. My son works on the Slope—12-16 hours a shift, for 14 days in a row per “hitch.” I guess I get a little defensive. Siberia would be good, I agree. Mosquitoes, muskeg, and incredible cold. Just what this pack of ninnyhammers needs.
No problem, I knew I had touched a nerve. I’m in PA and envy you your isolation. Be well.
The problem is that they may not exactly want what N. Korea or China have. They just don’t want us to have what we have. Look at the left always trying to block approval new drugs to treat illnesses. They need suffering and “struggle” to gain power to take down success. Like Ted Kennedy, they may have prevented the cure to their OWN illness. I picture Democrats in a tree, out on a limb and sawing the limb off between them and the tree. I picture them chuckling at their new progressive intelligence.
