re: #85 albusteve

I think Mu should tell his goons in the police force to stand down and quit shooting people…it does not appear to be doing much good, and it’s terrible PR

Steve, the police have totally evaporated - largely out of fear of being lynched for the earlier killings of protesters. Reports are that in some areas of the country - and perhaps Cairo as well - the police have released thugs from the jails to prey upon the general population. Others speak of police in civil clothing actually working with the looters.

At this moment, the army has shot some thugs and is attempting to protect property and people for the night. All this according to Al-Jazeera, which is getting the news right from the start.
