Darth Walrus posted:What kicked all this off specifically? I know things have been tense ever since Everard and the crackdown at the vigil, but this seems like an escalation. It was a Kill the Bill protest against the new law Police and Crime bill that effectively outlaws protest

Just showed a second burnt out cop car. It was a car, not a van like the pic above.

Census deadline is tonight, thanks Zarah Sultana for reminding me via facebook. Filled in the feedback to tell them to gently caress right off for the sex question, in particular that there are only two options and you have to answer one of them to proceed.

Rarity posted:It's hard to say it was a bait vehicle when it was parked right in front of the police station I can't find the photo now but the classic example of this was a police van that happened to be parked on the route of one of the large protests in London in the 00s or early 10s. It looked oddly vintage at the time- circular blue light on top, knackered LDV chassis, that sort of thing. It got trashed and there were plenty of photos of it on the front pages. This one on fire in Brizzle looks like the sort of van the police would be sorry to lose.

knox_harrington posted:So you can breathe while you're changing filters. You can use one but get less airflow. I think you're confusing the 80s-vintage S10 in the pic (which is obviously from some drama about the Iranian Embassy siege) which was single-sided and available in left- and right-hand versions, and the modern GSR which is two-sided. e: Actually a quick wiki suggests it's actually the older S6 which would be the right vintage for the embassy siege. goddamnedtwisto fucked around with this message at 22:48 on Mar 21, 2021 |

I do wonder how you can sight down a rifle in the modern one (in the video keckse posted) because those filters look bulky as hell - even tilting your head at 45 degrees would surely leave it banging against the stock?

It's fine, I've used it quite a bit on CQB ranges and had no problems. I find that dork extremely annoying.

Judging by the extremely poor mask discipline, there're gonna be some long stretches for this I imagine. If you're going to do naughty things where there are a lot of cameras (literally everywhere in Britain), where a mask people. I cannot stress this enough.

Really, if you're going to torch a police car, wear a balaklava and put a couple of pebbles in your shoes. Possibly get some padding under your clothes as well

I really don’t think the violence in Bristol has done any good. There was a lot of good PR with the BLM Colston statue toppling, but this is only going to be used against the left and protesting.

Isn't there a less painful way of changing your gait than pebbles in shoes? Could you have a pair of trainers that you shave part of the heel off or wear odd shoes with different heel heights? Or maybe put a 'lift' in one shoe and not the other?

The government might use this but the point is that if this were to happen in every city in the U.K. over and over it could some other course. It’s not like there’s literally any other realistic prospect of the bill being voted down. If you make peaceful revolution impossible etc etc

For a second I was being dumb and hoped that the shambolic handling of the vigil via the Met might have swayed people but, now that I’ve thought about it that’s really stupid and hopeful of me. I really need to stop being so generous to the British public and accept this is a large cursed island

kecske posted:I'm not implying anything, I'm pretty clearly saying that the state is not above abandoning a bait vehicle somewhere it's going to attract anger from a crowd so they can take pictures of the vandalised vehicle and plaster it across the news. Why is this considered some form of conspiracy? Police don't pay for poo poo especially not patrol vehicles, of course it's a plant.
