Officers had to form a skirmish line to clear a large mob that vandalized a Metro train, a police car and several businesses in downtown Los Angeles on Saturday night.

The Marxist-Democrat Party, the weaponized Federal Judiciary, and the Deep State news media are entirely to blame for such chaos.

Worse than being to blame, they are responsible for a direct attack on the USA.

And so it begins....

I’m afraid you are right, it’s that time again.
It will only build from here...

[HIDEK6]

Amish kids again?

No. They’re the rats’ mercenary infantry.

The rat establishment sponsored their 20 million soldier-strong invasion.

The nightstick with a short handle is called a Tonfa which is Okinawan for “chair bar”.

Worse than being to blame, they are responsible for a direct attack on the USA.

Yes, absolutely true.

Ohhh, that would be awesome! If they threw a good old LA Riot and looted and burned a bunch of stuff during the olympics!

Let the WORLD see how badly the city is run.

[Mark was here]

I guess it brings joy to liberal hearts seeing young people involved with mass transit.

Most looked Caucasian in the limited pictures and video I have seen.

A bunch of pro-Palestinians held a rally in my Jewish neighborhood. Many, if not most, were white, but a few were holding up photos of George Floyd. They are exploiting the anniversary of his passing.

[DIRTYSECRET]

Crowd them all in a cell naked. Give them viagra.

[gundog]

George Floyd 5 year anniversary....par-tay!

[gundog]

Yeah...Bass and Newsom are all about problem-solving.

[gundog]

The looters were being robbed by various gang members.

Well, that’s just wrong. The looted businesses are insured, but the looters are out their hard-earned booty. Where can they go to be made whole? Is this Maxine Waters’ district?

In the more advanced design, the major striking stick is attached by a bearing to the handle, and rotates about the handle. That way, the mass of the arm and shoulder used in swinging transfers its momentum to the striking stick, providing faster speed to the striking stick. Also, the operator can spin the striking portion, applying repeated strikes in a fraction of a second.

My understanding was that there were two major advantages to jointed night sticks:

1. The "slapping" or "whipping" effect (tip of the stick travels much faster than would otherwise be achievable with a rigid stick) and

2. The wielder is protected from the shockwave of the impact (Newton's 3rd Law) and from the vibrations traveling back up the stick.

Maybe that's what you were saying (I had difficulty visualizing what kind of a device you were describing).

I forget: Was it "The Blue Knight" (with George Kennedy, pictured above) or "Sarge" (with George Kennedy) that had the cool opening credit sequence with the protagonist skillfully swirling a nightstick?

There they go again!

“Pretty crappy police force that lets its own cars be spray-painted.”

In the 1940s, the LAPD had a fearsome reputation as a no-nonsense, ass-kicking operation. Those guys must be rolling in their graves.

[exPBRrat]

Just like in South Africa.
