Graphic: Another angle of the person being set on fire by a Molotov cocktail thrown by antifa militants in SE Portland. Rioters try to help but don’t do much. Cops are the ones who rush in & put out the flames. Video by @BGOnTheScene. #PortlandRiots pic.twitter.com/9gNFo73Lyc

“Burn, Baby, burn.” Oops!
Something like this also happened in Madison a few weeks ago, didn’t it? Has the women admitted to the cops that she accidentally set fire to herself while committing (or trying to commit) arson, or are the local cops still looking for invisible Boogaloo Boiz in Hawaiian shirts?
Almost forgot to comment on the explosion that happens in the last seconds of the clip. Was that rioters trying to attack the cops while they’re rescuing this stupid guy who set himself on fire?
What's the old saying: "I wouldn't piss on him if he were on fire"?
They always run. They always fan the flames. Idiots!
A person sitting on each foot would have had those fires extinguished in seconds. Any Boy Scout could have told them that. But then, these aren't exactly Boy Scouts, are they.
Oh the irony.
Hilarious.
I don't see any cops putting out the fire.
Arsonists for
Biden.
The ultimate hot foot. That should learn him to not throw Molotov cocktails without a learners permit.
That video is a myth - created by the Trump campaign and the Russians.
"I'm just a dipstick, yes I like that frying but babe
That cop, that cop, hey! That cop's from
That cop's from MARS, baby!"
I was listening to that song when I saw the post - what are the chances of something like that never happening?
Is it time to nuke Portland?
I love the clip of the incident that is scored to "Footloose" by Kenny Loggins....
Nothing like a hard disk to put out flames.
Ironic how often the ACAB folk call on the bastard cops when things get hot.
Dancing is just a way of intensifying the nonviolent protests.
Fun, fun, fun at the nightly carnival of riots. Think of it as The Running of the Bulls in Spain.
That’s funny.
The first time I watched that video, I didn't notice the *other* protester in the background whose pants caught on fire, presumably from the same Molotov cocktail. He was right next to the police line, so they were able to help him almost instantly.
Imagine if these arsonists rioters were all KKKers or *white supremacists -
The wall to wall coverage on CNN and MSNBC would be something to behold. This won't even make CNN or MSDNC - because CNN is an arm to the Democrat party.
*I submit the White Left are the real white supremacists*
Did the leftwing nazi arsonists light own of their own on fire?
If so - cool.
Someone sync-ed that to Footloose.
Response for Kamala and Hunter er... I mean Joe.
Arsonists represent "a clear and present danger of death or great bodily harm to others:. They should be shot down and that without warning.
Should journalists start naming and shaming? What if this loser is your kids' school teacher or the lawyer handling your closing or whatever? Would be nice to know.
Right now, these anonymous thugs can separate their actions from their identity and from the real world of consequences.
Holy Mother of God
in Madison a few weeks ago
It was a few months ago now.
Ages ago in the police academy, we were taught that a lit Molotov cocktail was, by definition, a deadly weapon, and justified use of deadly force to prevent it being used.
By the time someone shouted the idea to 'take your shoes off' those things were probably melted onto his feet. But please note that it's probably not a top idea to put out a fire using a cocktail tray that has been modified into a shield. Those are typically not great fire extinguishers.
Defund the firefighters who put out Antifa blockheads.
Eddie Murphy did that one on SNL. Too hot in the Hot Tub!
They call him toasty toes.
Fire is hot, and causes pain.
Nobody even had a fucking poncho, cloak, sarape or kilt to throw over the flaming asshole!

But the funniest line was "take your shoes off!"
If there is any cosmic justice, his lower legs have, at the very least, severe 2nd degree burns.
I had a fascination with fire (using lighter fluid) when I was a very young child- I was cured by accidentally burning the back of one of my fingers when I was 7. After that, I figured out to not play with fire. Who knows, if that life lesson hadn't been learned, I might be in Portland right now setting shit on fire.
To put a fire like that out, burning on a person like that, you use kerosene.
Yeah, the Footloose syncing was fucking hilarious.
If the hot foot fits, wear it?
I've watched it set to 30 difference songs so far this morning. I haven't stopped laughing since I watched the first one.

BleachBit-and-Hammers: "Did the leftwing nazi arsonists light own of their own on fire?

They did indeed.
According to Howard, it was like watching American soldiers storming the German artillery positions at Pointe du Hoc...except according to Howard, his marxist Howard's Heroes are actually braver than those WW2 US troops were.
Bill, Republic of Texas: "I don't see any cops putting out the fire."
Putting out fires is now fascist and white supremacy.
LLR-lefty Chuck can explain it.
"I cried because I had no shoes until I met man who had no feet."
roesch/voltaire: "If the hot foot fits, wear it?"
Which Steve Bannon inspired hawaiian shirt wearing boogaloo-er white supremacist threw the "mostly peaceful" molotov cocktail?
Temujin: "But please note that it's probably not a top idea to put out a fire using a cocktail tray that has been modified into a shield. Those are typically not great fire extinguishers."
Nonsense!
All of Howard's Heroes have been fully trained and are "combat" experienced.
They're idiots, really, but I can't enjoy his predicament. A close relative was severely burned in a structure fire years ago, and the advice of the burn unit he was airlifted to was to plan for the funeral, giving us a ballpark of 5% chance of surviving. It took years in compression suits and rehab centers, but he made it, and now is mountain biking, kayaking, playing in a band, and living his best life. I also absolutely hate the 'die in a fire' offhand insult. There is nothing humorous, regardless of political differences, to wish that fate on anyone, even a mortal enemy.

cfs: thanks for the link! Good stuff!
I myself would be tempted to put a photograph of Hitler on each fiery shoe to make it look especially stupid
Video appears to start w/ guy intentionally running thru flames. Strange. But as to recommended action, I think:
..one guy grab his belt to stop him from running around fanning the flames
..another guy (or two) strip off their jacket/shirt and smother flaming boots.
Kudos for keeping his mask on.

It would be interesting to try and smother a gasoline fire with a plastic poncho :)

@todd galle, when someone accidentally gets burned, or if someone gets burned trying to rescue another individual, then it’s not funny. But when someone sets himself on fire trying to commit arson, then it’s at least worth a smile.
So the arsonist is one of those people whom Kamala solicited bail money for? Yes, I juxtaposed ‘Kamala’ and ‘solicited’ on purpose.
Woman Set On Fire In Waukesha
The woman said she was walking her dogs when she was lit on fire by a man she didn't know who was wearing a red ball cap and a gray hoodie. At first saw the suspect while she was walking and tried to avoid him. He soon started to run at her and threw liquid that smelled like flammable liquid on her. She ran but tripped and fell. She tried to kick the man but he lit her on fire. She told police she let go of her dogs because "I was engulfed in flames," according to the complaint. She said she knew of know one who would do that. A witness saw the man walking away after the woman was set on fire.

Police discovered that Murn must have set the woman on fire thinking she was his cousin. The two women looked similar, the complaint said.
Everyone but Althea Bernstein.
But if it rings true, it must be true..for Booger Loos:
Protest against attack on Althea Bernstein
The Madison Police are joined by the FBI in investigating this incident, and there is a $10,000 total reward for any information that will lead to the arrest and conviction of those involved in this crime.
Edgewood College students and staff were joined by Madison community members to march “in solidarity with Althea Bernstein and others who are victims of crimes motivated by prejudice and bias,” read a statement from Edgewood College that promoted the gathering.
Edgewood students Vivi Velasquez, Jadhai Guerrero, and Sasha Shannon organized the protest together and encouraged those who wanted to participate to share messages of support for Althea, as well as donate to local charities and organizations working against racial injustice.
Guerrero feels that this attack and the racial injustice present in Madison make it so that there are many who don’t feel safe or supported in the city. “It’s a huge thing for us to stand up for this and show our support,” said Guerrero.
Before beginning the march, Guerrero addressed the crowd, saying “I don’t think that it’s fair that I’m a student, I’m a person of color, I have an accent, and I am scared driving around in my car, downtown, in my own city, where I come from. So, I think that it’s not just Edgewood, it’s the whole city.”
“It’s time for us to speak up, I don’t want to be afraid of going out. I don’t want to be afraid for my life, or for my family. We’re all in this together.”
Edgewood College President Dr. Andrew Manion was present while the protesters were gathering and, when asked about the situation, said “We need to do everything we can to promote justice in the city of Madison and beyond, and express our support when people are victimized under any circumstances. This is a terrible event, and I am glad to support the cause in solidarity with Althea and her family and we hope she recovers quickly.”

Downtown Olympia had a similar situation the other night, and there are people who actually, honestly believe it's Patriot Prayer guys doing this.
The sheer stupidity of some people never ceases to amaze me.

Both Washington and Lee were revolutionaries in different ways.
My brother was a marxist in college and he used to claim that the Revolution was a civil war and that the Civil War was a revolution. His big beef was that at the end of the Civil War, the South was forced to accept the idea of corporations. I never checked into it, that’s just what he said.

Todd, it's true that severe burns are horrifically painful and normally are nothing to joke about. But this young man had no qualms at all about inflicting that pain on someone else. If it had happened to a cop, he and the other losers there would have cheered and clapped.
I don't enjoy his pain, but I don't feel sorry for him either. Perhaps now that he knows exactly what a burn like that feels like, he'll be less likely to try to lob a Molotov cocktail at another person.
James Brown has a song called "Hot Pants". Not that I'm suggesting anybody set this clip to that. I'm just saying.
Karma's a bitch. A beautiful bitch.
one might make that argument, the south was a feudal largely rural agricultural society, and the north was a largely urban industrial one,
I think that title is unfair to Martha and the Vandellas. It could be interpreted as reinforcing stereotypes about Black people or cultural appropriation even.
Maybe go with "We got the Fire" from Ellie Goulding's "Burn".
I don't think it's funny.
Has everyone lost their humanity?

There are definitions for different types of wars. Our Revolutionary War was a successful war of independence. What we call the Civil War was actually a failed war of independence. The standard definition of a civil war is when two or more factions fight to control a country. The Confederacy never had the goal of taking control of the United States. They only wanted to be an independent country, but they lost. What is happening now in the US is closer to a civil war.
"the Revolution was a civil war, and the Civil War was a revolution" is close enough for me, and there's nothing specifically Marxist about it. It was a commonplace observation in grad school in the '70s and '80s--tim's bro must have listened in history class.
In truth, they were both, both.
As for persnickety lectures about the standard definition of civil war being when two or more factions fight to control a country, that's a fractional truth. Struggles for independence and secession (especially losing ones) are often called civil wars; in our case the term used before and during the Unpleasantness, as threat, warning, or lament, was civil war. It's also the term used by historians and librarians in their work.
That's why I call ours the American Civil War About Between Among and Within the States.
As to post-ACWABAWS "corporations," that's probably a reference to the argument that the defeated South became essentially an internal colony of the US; there's truth in that too.

Enough for Sunday night
"There is nothing humorous, regardless of political differences, to wish that fate on anyone, even a mortal enemy.”
Oh, if anybody had done it to him but his own comrades, I would be horrified. But this is a case of *friendly fire* and I can’t get to worked up about it. He was no doubt egging on the violence right up until he fucked up. If they stopped with the window smashing, the violence, the lynching, the arson, none of this would have happened. If the police had done it, for example, it would have been beyond unacceptable. Of course the police don’t use that kind of weapon, these guys do, along with blinding lasers that have been banned by treaty internationally, for example. You see the laser dots going everywhere in these videos.
Poor dude. Poster child for the new ad for 2020 sports and the agony of "de feet".

Use a trash can lid turned into ad-hoc shield to extinguish alcohol fire on pants leg. Let us know how it works... oh, so it didn't work. Perhaps more practice is needed?
I don't think it's funny.

@Browndog, when a person who is trying to set someone else on fire gets burned himself, it is absolutely a human reaction to laugh at him. You are the inhuman one if you can’t see that.
He was 93 percent NOT on fire.
So, we good now?
Exactly Tim in Vermont. 10:03
The nazi toddler arsonist army could use some feet-on-fire comeuppance.
""There is nothing humorous, regardless of political differences, to wish that fate on anyone, even a mortal enemy.”
I don’t know, when my dad was flying over enemy territory in WWII, I am pretty sure if an anti aircraft battery below fucked up and blew itself up, there would there would have been maybe a quick smile or two aboard the plane.
During D-Day I don’t think there was a lot of mourning for the guys who were cooked in German machine gun nests by US and British flamethrowers.
These guys are the ones trying to start a war. Let them taste it and see if it is really what they want.
"He was 93 percent NOT on fire.”
Exactly. He was mostly fine, what’s the problem?
Remember when Islamic supremacists terrorists wore explosive vests with intent to kill a bunch of innocent people, but accidentally hit the detonate button on the way there. ?
This is similar.

And equally smile inducing.

Perhaps I'm misconstrued. Shoot him with a pepper ball, blackjack or baton him, and I'm all good, with a thumbs up. Just being set on fire is off. He didn't set himself on fire from what I saw, but was in the blast range of a Molotov tossed by his comrades. Better friends might be a good start, they don't usually ignite individuals.
Ngo was right. I saw a different angle and two officers came over and smothered the fire on the one shoe that was still on his foot.
