The latest act of fucking lunacy from one of Denver’s finest halfwits.
You don’t bring a squirt gun filled with human urine to a First Amendment party. That’s the message the Arapahoe County Sheriff brought to the Centennial City Council on Monday night.
Sheriff Grayson Robinson is in favor of a new ordinance that he says is about public safety. It would bar protestors from carrying items such as metal wiring, wooden clubs, slingshots, gas masks, and squirt guns within demonstration areas.
“This ordinance, if you choose to pass it, is truly a public safety ordinance,” said Robinson.
He worries that any of those items could be used against officers trying to make sure the demonstrations are peaceful.
“This is a Super Soaker,” said Robinson, holding up a large squirt gun. “Some people that have been bent on causing harm have filled this with, again, human urine and then have sprayed this on peace officers and firefighters.”
Nice to know the spirit of Barney Fife’s not dead. Seriously, that they let this dimwit motherfucker walk around armed is all the argument against gun control one should ever need. If this article is any evidence, this fucking idiot shouldn’t be allowed to operate anything more dangerous than an electric toothbrush.
Or, y’know, he’s a fucking liar.
Here’s the thing, Mr. Fife, no Super Soaker has ever been used for any such thing in any political protest in America. Not once. Not against firefighters or peace officers. Never.
So which is it? Are you a fucking liar, or are you just possessed of the IQ of a lump of pigshit?
Update: Glenn Spagnuolo and Tom Mestnik of Recreate 68 expressed the same point much more eloquently on Peter Boyles this morning, and Mr. Boyles has claimed he’ll have the idiot on the air to defend his moron allegation. Don’t let up on the asshole, gentlemen, he made an uncategorical claim that Super Soakers have been used to spray urine on cops and firefighters — make the lying little shit provide some evidence.
Update II: Where the fuck is the libertarian crowd when this kind of fucking nonsense goes through, by the way? Where are the shrill missives from Harsanyi-land, the outcry from Jon Caldara? Hell, even Peter Boyles himself was accepting the concept as plausible. I mean, this is up there with 911 truthseeker stupidity. Or, for that matter, protesters spitting on homebound Vietnam soldiers. Take ten seconds out of your busy lives of pimping Lasik surgery, gentlemen, and fucking think about the logistics of doing something as awesomely fucking useless as carrying a bag of shit or a leaky squirt gun through a jostling crowd in August heat just on the off chance you’ll get close enough to a heavily armed cop to be able to dig it out of said pack and actually use it on them. Right before they beat you into a bloody puddle.
Can you imagine anything fucking dumber, more irrelevant, or less likely to succeed? Y’know, besides Mr. Robinson’s career in law enforcement?

Fuck Robinson’s idiotic argument about Super Soakers. It’s a lie, of course—what else would you expect from a backwater oinker, anyhow?—but the more important point is that it’s patently a diversion from another issue.
As in, somebody want to tell me when a GAS MASK was ever used as a weapon (against the police or anyone else)?
That’s a purely defensive item, used only when the police attack whole masses of demonstrators, using chemical substances that are not only injurious but potentially lethal (yes, a LOT of people HAVE died from the effects of CS gas, dor instance; examples on request).
And, guess what? Such substances have seldom if ever been used by the cops to “keep things peaceful.” They’re used all but exclusively to compel order and obedience, which is another matter entirely.
The fact is that that far more “riots” have been CAUSED by police using CS and other forms of “tear gas”—which is in itself an act of violence—than have ever been prevented by it. In effect, the issue before us is one of police violence, pure and simple.
And that being so, Robinson and his pals in the media—rather than hyping the bogus “threats” presented by Super Soakers full of piss and baggies full of shit—ought to be telling the world how grateful they are that nobody’s called for protestors to bring containers full of oven cleaner and the like, so that they can respond in-kind once the Mace cans come out.

What they’ll probably do is during an initial roundup of protesters with dark sweatshirts, they will search their backpacks and pull out any large items such as their bicycle u-locks, umbrellas, their large chemistry books or dictionaries and then assemble a pile of supposed ‘weapons’ that they confiscated, in order to justify a larger detention.

Writing letters to bloggers demanding that they stop “defaming” Ward Churchill?

Referencing your own work on Amazon reviews?

Ben-
The AIM pioneered in attacking people with urine.
They urinated and defecated on the floors of Indian people’s homes.
It’s in the New York Times.

Snapple. Did the Trimbachs or Trimbach ‘run’ everything around Pine Ridge, or were they following directions from whoever was one step higher in the hierarchy?What does their book say?

Stop try to make me out a moron by picking on my typos, you creeps.
A genius like me can’t be expected to sweat the small stuff. Einstein couldn’t even tie his own shoes. That’s why he wore loafers all the time. And he didn’t have a 10th of the blazing insights that I do.
Looks like it’s you and me against the world, Snapple.

“Stop try to,” Robbie? Your IQ must’ve risen 20 points with that one.
