What's that futurama quote: that one was less stupid, though you said it very stupidly?

I do agree that a protest action is a legit possibility. If so, early reporting falsely calling it terrorism would indicate the government plans a draconian response.

    Doesn't sound like a protest action like that. The previous one had more people, not just five guys in a van. Evacuations and EOD are more likely to be legit than a cover for special counterprotest operations.

    Bruh, the UK government has labeled the previous guy terrorists over some paint. You think they won't again? It's illegal to have paint within 10 miles of a military base now. 😂😂😂
