Tornado Alley (PROG)

[blackhawks]

I emailed this response to a friend who raised this subject earlier today.....

Teabagger redeux is all, with a hearty WOVLERINES!! thrown in for good measure.

First they fight the police and then the National Guard, THEN the 82nd Airborne kept on alert for domestic disturbances, used in Detroit in ’67 I believe.

Fuck ‘em, bring it on.

I was working from memory and then I checked it out...

To help end the disturbance, Governor George W. Romney ordered the Michigan Army National Guard into Detroit, and President Lyndon B. Johnson sent in the United States Army's 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions.

The result was 43 dead, 1,189 injured, over 7,200 arrests, and more than 2,000 buildings destroyed[citation needed]. The scale of the riot was the worst in the United States since the 1863 New York City draft riots during the American Civil War,[3] and was not surpassed until the 1992 Los Angeles riots 25 years later.
