Sorry for being technical but as the caption admits this fire wasn't riot related.

I predict that it is just a matter of time before a US soldier just says "Screw IT All!" and hoses down a whole bunch civvies with his MAG. And who could blame him with the constant sniping by the local yokals?

Yeah, it's not a riot-related photo, but something about seeing a US APC burn makes me feel all warm and tingly inside.

As for US soldiers shooting unarmed civilians it happens all the time already! Just last week there was a widely reported incident where US forces machine-gunned a family car killing the children inside. The soldiers in the Bradley got what they deserved.

Seven luxury SUVs were set on fire at two San Diego-area dealerships early Tuesday morning. Police suspect that the Earth Liberation Front may be responsible, but no one has claimed credit yet.
