I believe that’s the first Molotov Cocktail to a Gun Fight we’ve had. Still not a good idea.

They’re out early this year. Understandable, doubtless making up for lost Covid time. Thanks to our own Gun Bunny for the links.

Willis, you rat……
Couldn’t the fire eater learn how to properly serve a cocktail instead of throwing it?
Many years ago during a time of unrest at the local university my fellow Motorcycle Officers were called in to prepare to move and disperse a crowd of probable Iranian students who were demonstrating outside the university Jewish Sorority making threats and causing vandalism. The Sgt said that there may be some of them tossing molotov cocktails and they were not friendly to Police. The Sgt also said we were NOT to use deadly force if they were being thrown at us. I explained to the Sgt, using small words and speaking slowly, that if said individual threw said cocktail at me I was going to cap him / her. My honesty was not appreciated.
So the SGT said to not use deadly force in response to deadly force?! Did you ask him which knee you were supposed to shoot them in? 😉
If you were to respond in kind with equal force would the
Sgt still flame you?
Well, I wonder what perceived slight or injustice motivated Cocktail Boy to torch cars and lob incendiaries at the cops.
Well, he won’t be doing it again. Happy trails, asshole.
Defender using a knife to protect himself.Could have been smoked Hickory if he used a gun.
Molotov Boy got his azz smoked by the popo. “C’mon Baby light my fire…” Jim Morrison grins.
Gotta love it when the perp has his own weapon turned on him by his victim.
Is that my Father’s Day Gift ensemble you have picked out? Nice!
RIP, Gipper. You are sorely missed. We had a President that loved America as much as you. Sadly, he was run off by the Domestic Enemies of our Republic.
I miss Reagan. His take on todays situation would be epic.
Possession of a Molotov is illegal as it is considered a Incendiary/Destructive Device in the ‘National’ ‘Firearms’ Act.
Clearly we need more DD control.
Won’t someone think of the children!! (/s off)
Adios, dickbag.
Edit: off to travel the world today, y’all behave (and by that I mean don’t!).
