    Did they just whip that thing up to feed the protesters? or is that something that use on a regular basis?

    Possibly someone who just decided to monetize someone else's protest . After all why not cash in on something like that.
    Never try to tell me it can't be done

    If they are giving the food away for free - and I don't know if they are - then it is a very clever concept for a protest.

    Not only does it encourage others to join the protest, but it prevents the police from disbanding the protest. They are essentially rolling around something hot and dangerous alongside their protest.

    Not as cool as the rail mounted grill, but here we have a motorcycle towed chainsaw from the recent French riots.

    The thought process of someone having a tow bar ready for dragging what appears to be a a chain saw behind a motorcycle is kind of disturbing. The other person jumping over it like it's no big deal is too. What the

    People who "riot" like that, for example to protest police brutality, are not not doing it to support whatever the cause might be. They are just using that as an excuse to create chaos.

    It's sad. Peaceful protest used to be a widely accepted form of speech in Western democracies.
