Looks like Allahu's Snackbar is going to do killer business today!

[KestrelBike]

Holy s***. 1) were cops in that vehicle? 2) were they buckled in?

Also supposedly 109 morsi supporters killed by current secular gov forces. If that ain't a rallying cry (in muslim brotherhoods eyes) for a civil war, I don't know what is.

Why is Flo from Progressive standing by the Piramids at the beginning of the video?

Latest update on yahoo is over 300 killed by gov forces.

The distance from Colorado to Cairo is about as close as I want to be to a situation like that.

You've got to admit though, the people involved are pretty determined: going up against armored personnel carriers, and check out this guy, I count at least 11 available pieces of footwear laying about and he's chosen to go barefoot:

- and the guy behind him seems to be on his way home from buying some corn but decides to stop off and do a little rioting while en route!

corn man has some fancy green slippers on. that and what appears to be a red baseball helmet add a bit of humor to the photo

WOW! That is pretty f---in crazy!

Hahahaha laughing like a total creeper in line at the post office right now. 11 people in line with one worker at the counter. Gotta love federal/union efficiency.

[Bailey Guns]

I think corn man is looking for his scooter. Isn't that a helmet under his arm? I'd be wearing it if so. I can't imagine being armed only with a water cooler in a gunfight.

Now imagine that crowd from the video is an armed, anti-tyranny crowd in the USA...armed with AR-15 and M1A rifles. Wonder how different the outcome would be?

Now that's funny!

[ROFL1] Sure looks like her.

Maybe she sold the insurance policy on the light armor that got pushed off the bridge.

[MrPrena]

I guess we ain't going to Egypt for vacation this summer. Pyramids can wait. :D

[Zundfolge]

Honestly watching the goings on in Egypt is like watching an important ball game between two teams you don't care about.

Nobody to root for.

[hatidua]

Nobody to root for.

- it beats watching C-SPAM though [Awesom]

[Sparky]

Were do these people find all those rocks?

[Irving]

Sure looks like a lot of Morsi supporters.

Cairo and other cities hit by shocking violence on Wednesday were largely calm overnight, after the army-installed government declared a month-long state of emergency and imposed a dusk-to-dawn curfew on the capital and 10 other provinces.

The Brotherhood is trying to pose itself as the victim, the reality is that the Brotherhood brought this on themselves by murdering Coptic Christians among others while Mursi was in power.

They were crucifying them in the streets. Killing them leaving church and even mowing them down at funerals of people who were killed leaving church.

But don't be fooled by the media. Islam is a religion of peace, the brotherhood is asking for "peaceful" protests.

Is the "sarcasm" smiley missing from that?

Yes. I don't know how to do them from my phone.
