Have not been placed under arrest? Glad they weren’t AA’s, they would be lying dead in the street. Jack-o-Lantern Aug 2015 #3

We've got some real idiots down here who are frothing at the mouth for something to happen. I've wondered if there might be some crazy enough to try to instigate something to prove their point.

I hope all the soldiers (and any other innocents in this incident) were not harmed.

Arrest these murderous assholes. Their intent was to harm and they had zero justification.

If someone had opened fire on our troops and no one had seen what they looked like, the country would be in an uproar, wondering if it was an attack by Islamic terrorists. But, nooo, just some good ol' boys that want to bring down the gummint. Not much different from Islamic terrorists after all, but keep walking folks, nothing to see here.
