re: #52 Targetpractice, Worst of Both Worlds

Sorry, but if this were a true police state, that camp would not have been there for two months. And they wouldn’t be using tear gas and pepper spray to move protesters out, they’d be using live ammunition and hauling resisters out in body bags.

Errrr… it’s not just black and white. Egypt was a police state, and even they didn’t just mow down Tahrir Square.
