The police look eerily like Star Wars Storm Troopers...or Nazi Storm Troopers.
...and having thought about what I said, now, after I posted it ...
I am glad we have them there and where ever needed
Just made it my desktop!
Anyone know where I can get a high res version?
No they don't. Storm troopers would be goose stepping, ripping down the Bush sign, and shouting "One Country, One People, One Leader" wearing official DNC patches.
These guys are just doing their job.
Glad you liked it, and do not have an answer for your last question.
Good save.
Yes, they do.
But I hapen to know quite a few of them.
They are the good guys. It's the political leadership that orders them that frightens me.
(sodo)Massachusetts is run by commie nutjobs from the governor on down.
Just good cops trying to keep their city safe from a bunch of loony protesters and from a threat of potential terrorist attack.
