That was funny. You think they would try a practice run. In a ten man squad the German Army had competition for the two best men to throw a grenade. Distance and accuracy. So they had 2 machine guns. One group of five went and one went right. The two grande throwers and the two machine gunners let it rip.
The German men were part of an Army. What are these women part of?

To their credit, it looks like one of them did think to bring a fire extinguisher, it seems. But maybe it was just dumb luck insofar as it was only intended to be a weapon.
At the 1968 Democrat Convention in Chicago, the Weathermen (SDS) were throwing baseballs with nails in them at the cops. They did not have shields and other types of riot gear like they have today. :-O

When you are an elitist money is no object. These people had to stay some place in Chicago and hotels were quite expensive. I am sure they were not allowed to camp out in Grant Park. ;)
