#3 "When I was in Ferguson for [the Justice Department] or with the Obama administration after the [Michael] Brown shooting, we saw that there were terrorist groups, organizations in Pakistan and elsewhere who were setting up false Twitter accounts and setting, having... two sides with conversation, basically alienate each other going forward," Linskey told host Bill Hemmer.

#4 Had an opportunity to watch the riots in one major city over the weekend. I am by no means a trained observer, but I did notice a few things.

There were clearly 2 shifts. The first was mixed race, gender. Many couples. Some brought children. They had signs and water. Demonstrated during the day, then started leaving around 4PM. The second shift started showing up after that. Nearly 100% young male. Masks, helmets, some weapons. Noticed obvious signs of organization. Guys on motorcycles were moving around speaking with individuals stationed at different locations. Vans moving in and out. Same vehicles showing up repeatedly. Once the police started moving the crowd back with tear gas, the rioters went to individuals with bottles of a white powder. This was applied to the face and seemed to neutralize the tear gas. These guys were strategically positioned, and the rioters knew about them.

#5 ^ that matches my observations - from riots four years ago.

These characters have accumulated a great deal of experience in the last four years. They assemble quickly and know how to create havoc. This is not spontaneous.

#6 Yep - they had 'protests' in Manchester, NH three+ years ago; first thing I said about it was 'they're all bussed up from Boston, and $20 sez the buses are all parked on Canal Street' (the sight of which was effectively blocked by five-story mill buildings on both sides of the road). Latter part was confirmed the next day, so the goons in Boston basically used Manchester as a tune-up / preseason game.

#7 They've been tuning up for four years.
This is the Olympic Games for them.

#8 Past experience shows both sides will bring folks in from all over. Only difference is, patriots pay expenses out of pocket. Nobody has ever slipped me some "walkin' around money". Where's my frikkin' sugar!
