I don’t think you know the definition of the word you are trying to down play . Maybe google “ firebomb “ .

I know the definition of firework... it's in the description of the video you posted.

If that's what you are calling a fire bomb, then yeah, I think I got firebombed once back in the late 90's.

You’ve been hanging around too many deflectors in here , picking up bad habits . I specifically put “firebomb “ in quotes to stop those deflections . 😊

We can go with "fire bomb". I'm still upset that Trump or Barr ordered the "fire bombing" of those demonstrating and the journalists in DC, so that Trump could have his bible moment.

Is this how this works?

I think you and Ricky should hang out together. The Adventures of Ricky and Dink, or Dink and Ricky, you guys can decide who gets top billing, would make for an incredible thread. Everyone should support this.

Id love to but I can’t. I have to work an actual job when Dink is home smoking the reefer and drinking some IPA. And when he’s working at the bar, I have an actual family lol 😂. Maybe on the weekends?

They’re so ****ing stupid they’ve seen this fence for two months and still can’t figure out it’s linked by vertical posts. If they lifted straight up they could take it apart. Yet they pull with 1/2” stretchy nylon rope and for some reason it won’t budge. Maybe all the gas has eaten their brains.

I still know more than you because I work on Gay Street, the Old City, and live in 4th and Gill.

You're incorrect. There are zero panhandlers in 4th and Gill. You are attempting to argue with someone who spends 90% of their waking hours in all three of these places. Just stop.

I remember when a young Ronnie Garvin threw the Southeastern Championship Belt off the Gay Street Bridge.

I have literally never been panhandled once in 4th and Gill.

You are panhandled several times per block on Gay Street/Market Square. There's no argument here. You're just wrong. I live here. I work here. I am here every single day.

You're wrong.

Comparing the homeless in Knoxville to San Francisco is like comparing a church league basketball team with the Lakers. There is zero comparison.

No I don’t , you are are taking what was said and trying to downplay the word . Why I don’t know because if you are protesting and start chunking “ incendiary devices / firebombs “ at cops it’s no long a peaceful protest . Feelings or opinions of how much the cops should be able to take doesn’t matter . The Portland city cops declared it a riot two days ago , nothing’s changed since then to lessen it .

"I hope someone kills your whole family." These are such lovely people and yet the mayor of this city wants to die on this hill.

Great idea. Could have a weekly highlights get together at the Waffle House.

The video of the guy throwing the Molotov Cocktail, I would consider an actual Fire Bomb... just a lame one, as I said.

I don't think anyone considers anyone throwing anything "peaceful protesting". but some are being peaceful

So, the riot control, tear gas and flash bangs for Trump to walk across the park.. what would you call that?

I'd call it justice. The president of our country can go anywhere he wants without being harmed.

How about citizens? And who was going to harm him?

Ironically, that stroll did him more harm than any protester could have.

Have you ever been inconvenienced by a presidential visit in your city? You know where they shut down the road for miles and block all entrances? I imagine a walk across the street is about the same and no secret service guy wants to be the next one to allow a president to be killed.

Sure, but the only reason he wanted to go to that church was because someone had just tattled about him retreating to the WH bunker. But again, it ended up an epic fail, so whatever.

Great answer. You acknowledge the reason but then put your own spin on it. He could have been your Messiah Obama or George W. Bush and the exact same thing would have been done.

Doesn’t even have to be POTUS , when Hills visited here for a speech in the tidewater area in 2016 it was damn near impossible to get a permit to move an oversized load out of the port . It can be ridiculous. I also screwed up and got hung out to dry during the Dem convention in Philly . That was a big DA move on my part . Smh
