Cenotaph Update

Yesterday we learned that “football hooligans” (a.k.a. loyal and decent Brits) are going to stop the Pal terrorsymps from taking over the Remembrance Day memorial.

Now we have this:

Football hooligans alliance supporters warn fans ‘do not come tooled up’ with weapons as they bid to ‘protect’ the Cenotaph from pro-Palestine protest – and sell out coaches for hundreds to head to London.

My thought is precisely the opposite:  by all means bring weapons, because you have to know that the “peaceful” terrorsymps surely will — and the last thing you need is to face some dangerous asshole down with only your fists when he’s carrying a “sign-holder” (club).

No no:  bring weapons yourselves, but do not brandish them or take them out — ever — unless you’re physically attacked.

Then have at it, and may the best thug win.

No doubt someone’s going to have a problem with this, but I don’t care.  Even in Britishland, one should have the proper (and lawful) means of self-defense, e.g. a pair of sap gloves (as worn by the cops, ergo legal), and some kind of head protection (e.g. one of these).  I had both on my last visit to Britishland, but I just never told anyone about them.

I also recommend carrying a sign (suitably provocative) affixed to a pickax handle.

It’s all about freedom of expression, innit?

  1. Saw an old dood at Walmart yesterday using a cane made out of a wooden baseball bat. The kind with the black barrel, wood handle.

    I told him, “Nice cane you have there. I don’t use one, but now I might!”

  2. I exist in England “I hesitate to say live” and I have heard that a fairly large number of ex-Servicemen are going to assemble “somewhere” near to the Cenotaph. It seems that an inordinate number will be retired Royal Marines.
    I wonder what might happen?

  3. we all know that the Brit police is going to act very harshly against their own citizens while actively assisting the terrorists.
    Any actual Brit who comes with anything that could be construed a weapon, even if it’s a walking stick or camera monopod, is going to very quickly be whisked away to a police cell where they’ll be left to rot for days or weeks without ever seeing any charges against them, or having the chance to talk to a sollicitor.
