Well it's all kicking off here again, fun fun fun.
Anyway, so far at least 2 (possibly 5) people have lost limbs which have been literally blown off, along with a now over a hundred people injuired, many seriously.
The Old Bill out here are claiming that these lost limbs are the result of being struck by tear gas canisters, does anybody over there know if this is possible?
Either way I have an inkling that I may have a day off tomorrow.

Better than having a leg off tomorrow...
I guess it depends how close they were when the tear gas was fired

I'd imagine it possible if the cannisters are pressurised enough.

Yeah if you throw the cannisters into the crowd. And then shoot them.
Actually I have no idea.

Probably the 70's. Or maybe the poll tax riots. We live in a civilised part of the world see.
Hope you keep yourself out of trouble though, is not a teensy bit scary?

It's more interesting/exciting than scary Dave, mostly because it is happening in a different part of a very big city.

Nah, they wouldn't be interested in me. The last cool was quite cool. The reason being that the old bill where dead busy and so the clubs/bars where open 24/7. Maybe you should organise a coup in the UK so that you can enhance your yooni days.

The military are still in Norn Island...and have been since the late 60's. It should be noted that these 5000 troops are said to be just barracked in NI...active security ops having ceased in 07.
