#3 The Detroit job was Plugs' stuff. The Virginia job last year was B.O.'s.

Kinda makes you wonder: if thieves can make off with the president's and the V.P.'s U-Hauls, what about the national treasury?

Oh. Wait.

Never mind.

#5 I hope they were not stowing their hookers in that UHaul. Today's SS is in over its head in lawless territories and failed city-states

#6 It's not like there's great security at Y-12, either. This government is rotten. It can't protect its own property. I wonder how many armories could be liberated come the day.

#7 Although truly snark-worthy (Creating demand for stimulus spending at the micro level anyone?), this theft comes out of my pocket via taxes, and makes me unhappy....

More than you want to think about. Of course, it depends on who gets there first.

#10 ...you got to know how to use them for the 'loot' to be effective. Being gun banners on their side of the aisle, I suspect their skills are somewhat limited to the usual 'spray and pray' as amply demonstrated recently by even the NYPD.

#16 Is this the one with the padded walls that Slow Joe rides in?

#17 A spate of incidents may mean one of two things.. Lack of professionalism or Over-active OPTEMPO. I tend toward the latter.
