Please Educate me on the Use of Petrol Bombs
    Edited on Wed Feb-02-11 03:38 PM by Mike 03
I've been watching Al Jazeera (which deserves an award for this coverage, BTW) for almost twelve hours, and there is something I wish you all would address: It has to do with the use of the Molotov Cocktails.

If I were truly enraged with my opposition (and I have never been angry enough to use violence against another person, but I have tried to imagine what that might feel like), to the degree where I would throw a petrol bomb, I would throw it at people. One thing I have noticed is that these "bombs" are being thrown meters away from where people are. They are tossing them onto vacant concrete.

My question: Is this because it is hard to direct them? Could it be because the "Pro-Mubarak" protesters are doing this for the money and don't actually want to hurt anybody?

I hope it is the latter. I'm wondering if maybe this entire "We Love Mubarak" movement is just a scam, and they are being paid to engage in violence that even they cannot engage seriously.

But this is very fluid, and that is just a theory.

Don't get me wrong: this is a deadly serious situation. But there is something about the Pro Mubarak group that just doesn't seem authentic.
And now for the voices of experience...

    It's not something you want to hold onto for very long. You just want to get rid of it.

The most effective use IMO is to drop them onto your target from a high location.

As a kid we played with them down near an abandoned gravel pit.  We made them out the old small 10 ounce pop bottles.

Just as a wild thought here, maybe they aren't hitting anyone because the people getting thrown at are smart enough to stay out of range???

I know this might be something of a hard concept to grasp DUmmie but people actually try to avoid bursting into flames. It's like its some sort of weird natural defense or something.

When a bottle hits a person it doesn't break. The point is to get the bottle to break and spread the flammable material over a wide eara, thus you throw it in front of the target. In the case of a vehicle (being hard) just throw it at the DUmpmonkiez Prius.

Well, he sure doesn't want to sound like one of know-it-all nadin's Murikans.
Actually, this is one of the reasons we could never have this kind of uprising. If they tried using Molotov cocktails, the DUmbasses would very shortly turn themselves into human torches, and their uprising would be over.

This is why the DUmpmonkies should never want a revolution. They know about Molotov cocktails. I know how to make improvized grenades with something as abundant as triple FFFG gunpowder, a tap, and some fuse.  :evil:

I pity the kids of today.  The statist liberals have killed a fun childhood. Half of the stuff we regularly did would send us to prison now. I've carried a pocket knife since I was seven and entrusted with this violent weapon of white oppression.  That right there would send a high school senior to jail now.

Could you imagine throwing a cocktail at one of the whales that inhabit the island.  Man it would hit with an enormous shock wave of blubber, sink in, then come back at you hard and fast.  Not a good idea, I'll go with crete or the tops of tanks.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Let's hope the DUmmies take note of this photo. Should you ever find yourself ablaze, DUmmies, it's very important that you immediately take off running as fast as you possibly can. With enough speed, the wind you generate will extinguish the flames.
