#2 Plus, most folks don't realize that if you hit that dog, it's assault on an officer. So far as the cops and judges are concerned, that dog is a full fledged cop.

#3 That's what mounted police are for. Nobody stands still in front of a cavalry charge.

#4 "Nobody stands still in front of a cavalry charge." Well no one sane or without a stout pike that is.

#6 Not like it is that hard to get a permit either. Fill out the forms, pay something like $50-100, wait three days then march. Of course, if you get a bunch of wellfare boob using all their money for dope and want police "brutality" in the headlines.....

#8 Dang. When I think of what a single person could do with a ski mask and a pair of nunchaku (numb-chucks), running through a crowd like that and aiming for buttocks. He could give a dozen orange-sized lumps to a dozen different moonbats and be gone in under 30 seconds.

A spring stick would be almost as good. Maybe with an extra big can of pepper spray in the other hand.

#9 can't do that, Moose, with these people. Too likely to cause a brain injury ;-)

#10 We need to start organizing civilian pro-govt. rapid action battalions, kind of like the RAB. Why is it only leftist America haters get out on the street and get news coverage?

#11 LOL on comments. BTW: a couple of posters are treating me like an antiwar protester in the OC. If anyone would care to come by, I could use the support. (Necessary to read my original post from last night.) They're really hurting my feelings (and yes, conservatives do have feelings . . . gawd). Thanks.

#12 Alright! See footballers! You don't come to the Steel town and mess with my Pittsburgh Steelers ...er ... ummm ... well, unless you're the (cough!, gag!) New England Patriots.

#13 BTW:

Just remembered: What did I say would happen to ~~antiwar~~ anti-American protesters? I told you public's patience with these royal assholes is wearing thin.

#14 I am in Pittsburgh and what started all the choas is one of the anarchist/peace protestors slapped a TV camera out of the hands of a cameraman. These rabid know nothings wanted a scene. The recruting station was closed when they all got there. They screamed with delight as the TV camera rolled as they looked like fools. They then knocked the camera to the ground. They would not disperse. These protestors were mostly college age goof balls who just want there to be peace on earth (give me a break). In this local, it is the heart of the university dominated section of the city. The U of Pittsburgh, Carnegie Mellon U etc. Yes, one women was bitten in the butt. She commented on local radio that she is just against war in general and Iraq had nothing to do with Vietnam or I mean Iraq.

God Bless W and the troops in the whole WAR on Terror.

#15 I think we should equip the mounted police with sabers and fur hats, the better to ride down lefty blackshirts Cossack style.
I remember a video clip from some lefty riots in LA in '03. An ugly crowd of masked blackshirts (the Moonbat special forces) had assembled on a parking lot and were started throwing rocks at passersby.
The mounted police arrived, lined up about 100 yards away and charged en masse swinging their nightsticks. The surly subversives forgot all about rock-throwing and fled in all directions; leaving backpacks, water bottles, Mumia posters, and reams of Maoist propaganda littering the ground; like a Moonbat Mitla Pass. I think some of them even left their birkenstocks behind in their haste to be elsewhere.

#19 Anybody hear echoes of the Spanish Civil War?

#20 Enlighten us, Mac.
You are aware, I trust, that the Spanish fascists were not the lawfully constituted government during the Spanish Civil War?

#22 Yes, AC, I'm aware of that. And I'm also aware that the Spanish Republicans basically lit the fuse for the war when the Asaltos killed Calvo Sotelo. What I'm pointing to here is that long before the fuse was lit, the powder had been stacked and the train laid by the increasing and finally, near-total hatred and contempt each side had for the other. Never forget that nearly 1/3 of all the casualties in that war were caused by execution squads, squads led by people who determined that the other side was so convinced of its abhorrent beliefs that there was no possible redemption for them, no hope for their change. It was better to simply kill them. I'm not sure how many people who read Rantburg would happily put a bullet into Ted Kennedy or the Clintons but fron what I've read at DU, I'm pretty certain there are plenty of folks over there who would, if promised escape, shoot George Bush down like a rabid dog. The dislike between the two parties in this country is getting more visceral every day and, if the trend continues, it will end up in bloodshed. When it does, it's going to be real ugly. My bet is once that happens, we'll see lots of libs headed for Canada a la 1939's Spanish Republicans headed for Perpignan. My $.02.
