ARMED BANKERS FEAR THE WRATH OF MOB





















This just in from Bloomberg columnist Alice Schroeder. She reports that…

“Goldman Sachs vampires are loading up on handguns to defend themselves against popular uprising. “"I just wrote my first reference for a gun permit," said a friend, who told me of swearing to the good character of a Goldman Sachs Group Inc. banker who applied to the local police for a permit to buy a pistol. The banker had told this friend of mine that senior Goldman people have loaded up on firearms and are now equipped to defend themselves if there is a populist uprising against the bank.” (Lifted from Boing Boing.)

The secret word is Bunker

Guns are largely useless against a variety of tactics, they can't fight the spread of a flesh eating virus, they can't effect poisoned food, they don't have the ability to detect & disarm a remote or triggered detonation... they also don't do much to stop the other guy's bullets from flying & damned sure don't do much if the other guy's started flying first, let alone from a concealed location.

A bit of improvisation goes a long way, so much can be rendered redundant by so little.
