Rioting From a Recliner

I must admit I do enjoy watching the country unravel at times that's what spices up a mundane life makes us appreciate calmer times. How I do enjoy watching the uncoiling mayhem Martin looter kings and Drama queens trying to ignite a darker form of change (passive resistance and civil disobedience be damned). How I do enjoy watching the uncoiling mayhem, a combat sport at its very finest. A twitchy thin blue battle line versus a pulsing cluster of malcontents... A mixologist's dream: tumblers of tear gas Molotov on the rocks pockets of flaming shots - Goblets of salt rimmed shattering glass - whirling cherry bombs and baton. Wrestling matches-naval shots and bloody Mary lips. The blue man group atop Battle horses sirens and flares inter-coursing... Wish I had the balls to join in the fun. but I do the next best thing, steer my recliner-straight into the fracas.
