[WASHINGTONTIMES] Anti-Trump protesters are plotting to derail an inaugural ball by setting off stink bombs and the sprinkler system in order to force the evacuation of celebrants, according to an undercover video released Monday.The D.C. Anti-Fascist Coalition, part of the anti-inauguration umbrella group #DisruptJ20, plans to "ruin" the DeploraBall, a sold-out black-tie gathering Thursday night at the National Press Building, according to the Project Veritas investigation.
"I was thinking of things that would ruin their evening, ruin their outfits and otherwise make it impossible to continue with their plans. So they get nothing accomplished," said a man identified in the video as Scott Green, a leader of the D.C. Anti-Fascist Coalition, in the undercover video.
Another activist, identified as Luke Kuhn, says during a sit-down at the Comet Ping Pong pizza joint in Washington, D.C., "If you had a pint of butyric acid, I don’t care how how big the building is, it is closing," to which Mr. Green responds, "And this stuff is very efficient, it’s very, very smelly and it lasts a long time."
Butyric acid is an ingredient commonly used in stink bombs. As a back-up plan, activists said on the video they would look to set off the sprinkler system.
"I’m trying to think through how to get all the sprinklers to go off at once," says an activist identified as Colin Dunn, adding that he wants to be sure the vandalism is "made to look like an accident."
