    One of our other papers is also reporting that there aren't enough police in Scotland to manage the expected protests.

    So y'all should let the police join the protests, lead them even! If they're clever, they can keep hooliganism and damage/harm to a minimum while allowing the crowd to disrespect our stupid fascist orange turd at full volume. Oh wait, clever/police? Might be a problem there...

    You underestimate the resourcefulness of the average Scot. And how hated trump is there. There might not be a surplus of military gear, but people hunt deer and have access to some lovely rifles.

    Umm I live here, and I am not underestimating how loathed he is, we detest him. I still don't think there's a periwinkles chance in a supernova that any of us will shoot him. That's more an American thing.

    There will however almost certainly be creative chants at protests drawing links between him and Epstein and probably a lot of people calling him all sorts of names everywhere he goes.

    The only way there will be violence is if his entourage starts something, we'll make sure we finish it.
