Seeing a gas grenade puff smoke out of a dead man's head is one of the more gruesome things I've seen in the past couple of years. I'm trying to keep a level head, but I really want to see some of these *******s beaten to death on the street by an angry mob Gaddafi style.

I just wonder if and when live ammo will be used on protestors, but I wouldn't be surprised if it gets to that point in a week if things continue to escalate.
They still don’t need live ammo because they still have us in a capitalist chokehold. Some property was lost but the owners are fine.

It’s the mayors, governors, police chiefs, military and national guard members with high ranks, and rich business owners that should be targeted.

I’m not saying that the destruction of property isn’t inspiring and heroic. It definitely is. But I think this wave is done. It will probably fade away like the Rodney King riots even though these were way more focused. There probably won’t be a second wave but still the police and right wing militias aren’t the only Americans with weapons that shoot real bullets.

Will work be slow cause of the protest?

That’s a brainwashing thing. Your co-workers don’t have to come in, the owner does. Or god forbid a 7-11 could lock its doors or just be left unattended. Seriously, who ****ing cares? It’s not a career path, a stepping stone or anything. Everyone should at least have to courage to say no.

Working harder than you should is the opposite of solidarity.

On the one hand I agree with OH but on the other certain things you don't do will just make your coworkers' day harder if you don't do them and I know full well that if a coworker not doing something made OH's day harder he'd be ready to throw a fit and forget all about what he's currently talking about. You pick and you choose what you slack off on based on whether if you had to deal with it if your coworker didn't do it it would make your shift harder. It's a slave mentality form of solidarity but if you don't help out your fellow slave while still acting like a slave then you're even less than a slave.

Sure at the end of the day you should just burn the store down and walk away whistling the Andy Griffith tune but if you're not going to do that then you might as well not ruin the day of the guy coming in behind you.
