jaidam Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Looks like they missed one of those undercover police without id that have been invading the peaceful protests. Entirely predicatable and the police shouldn't look too hard for the culprit, unless of course there is a job vacancy for deputy house speaker.

thaicbr Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 The big problem with this report is the fact that someone managed to throw a bomb at the police in a secure zone that is supposed to be guarded... what the hell were they actually doing. And then to manage to NOT catch them... unbelievable Sent from my phone with the app thingy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaddeus Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 (edited) Another source is describing this bomb as a giant cracker or ping pong bomb which hit one policeman's riot shield, he fell to the ground and hurt his arm in the process. Non of the other officers saw who threw it as when it went off, they lay down on the ground double quick.

Highly guarded and the bad guys still penetrated the perimieter and got into the secure area to do their dirty work. It's tempting for me to criticize after-the-fact from the comfort of my easy chair, but I try not to. Double Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
