I was in Berkeley during the 1969 People’s Park riots and I think it was much worse than this . However there was also a very clear and strong response from the Governor of California at the time ; Ronald Reagan .... There were Calif. NG soldiers in the streets , with loaded rifles . APC’s at every major corner , concertina wire in the worst areas of rioting . Helos overhead dispensing teargas . Those riots stemmed forth from similar so-called non-violent protests . They evolved . These could too , but what response will their be now ?

IIRC, in the 1980s, one anti-nuke protester went up against a train, and lost a leg.
Washington State, I believe.

Is that what you call a bunch of misguided yout’s?
And old tie dyed hippies?
Searching for unicorns?
And windows to smash?

Call me cruel, savage even but can a Dillon 134Bravo fire rubber-bulleted ammo?
If so, that is a sure cure such stupidity.

Absolutely; bring out the fire hoses. They work best in winter when the PETA people are protesting. Hose them all down, and then ask if they are interested in a fur coat.

It’s Berkeley. I don’t care what happens to them. Anyone stupid enough to live there gets whatever they deserve.

which is something I’ve never understood.
I would much rather repeatedly nail an intruder with rubber bullets than have the endless paperwork of actually shooting the perp.

so much of what we used to call common sense seems to have evaded the understanding of todays authorities,,,...among that of others...

Great photo. Reminds of the time Clinton went to Camp David for a little r & r. Forgetting his casual shoes he called the white house and instructed them to sent over that pair of black loafers. Thirty minutes later Sharpton and Jackson show up.

I guess the libs call it Privileged Sense now, and only they have it?
they have forgotten that you earn respect by first showing it to those worthy of it.

Water cannons, tear gas, and mean dogs. Come in fast and don’t stop advancing. No time to fool around with these a-holes.
