The left has begun using Ryder trucks to try and ram the gates of military installations. Gate guards open fire.
When I was in, gates were guarded by wheeled armored vehicles with cannons. We need to begin doing that again.
4 or 5 rounds of 25mm will stop a Ryder truck immediately.

. 50 BMG would work well also.

I’m guessing the collateral damage from a 25mm or bigger would be politically unacceptable. Personally, I think if you want to attend a violent event, you are supporting the illegality and should experience the consequences. I’m also ok with using bayonets and truncheons on rioters.

Makes me wonder if it was a dry run for something larger elsewhere.
Soon, installations are going to have to start employing the same EOF shit we did in Iraq/Afghanistan.

They had 10 seconds to get him/her after he stopped ???

I think they were concerned that it was a VBIED.

The Trump administration is showing, in my estimation, incredible restraint. At some point a good number of those idiots attacking federal officers and sites are going to get killed.

But no one has the stones for making good commies?

I saw on yesterdays news that the driver eluded capture. Is that true?
SiG · October 25, 2025 at 9:02 am
I thought I saw the driver was hit by one of the bullets and was hospitalized. Wouldn’t bet my life on that.

Reminds me of the Marine Barracks bombing in Beirut. I wonder if this was a test run for attack on an ICE facility.

I remember a very tragic anniversary a few days ago.
The Beruit Barracks Bombing that used a truck full of explosives that murdered hundreds of Marines.
Trucks aggressively approaching gates are a Big Red Flag.
Never make the same mistake twice with enemies that want you Dead.
I’ll take your 25mm and Raise you a pair of M1 Abrams, you get One warning, then hyperspaced to your safe space.

If you are going to use the main armament on an Abrams, use canister (grape shot – makes the main armament into a giant shot gun) and do the job properly. The 5.56 round isn’t very effective against soft skinned vehicles so the guards need something a bit more substantial.
After that, the truck passengers won’t try again. Problem solved.

So… when a pAntifa is matyred, does it go to whatever is its version of Valhalla, probably some fluffy version of Portland, where it lives forever with 27 trannies as its eternal reward?

I’ve got to wonder how they’d take it if someone did a copy of that ICE tracking app that instead tracked elected representatives that are pushing the ICE tracker? The same principles could be used. Track what they usually wear in public, publish their ID, home address, what their kids look like and everything. Or do the same for the entire police force in their city. The criminals would love it but does the App disappear?
There’s that famous old book that says, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” That’s all it is.
Divemedic · October 25, 2025 at 12:03 pm
Just use a GPS tracker on the cars of Antifa assholes using a magnet while they are at a protest. Then publish their location periodically.
Exile1981 · October 25, 2025 at 12:55 pm
Just a note, in some jurisdictions placing a tracker on someones car is illegal. Placing that info on line makes you a target for far left DA’s.
Divemedic · October 25, 2025 at 7:25 pm
Only if any found trackers can be traced to me.

Don’t forget the TRUMP sticker.
McChuck · October 25, 2025 at 12:04 pm
That was an awful lot of rounds fired to little effect. It would seem some more and better training might be warranted.
Divemedic · October 25, 2025 at 7:25 pm
I think the issue was that they weren’t making it through the box to the passenger. That’s why I suggested a bigger gun.
Tree Mike · October 25, 2025 at 12:09 pm
I’m pretty sure, there would be over penetration issues with a 20 or 25 or 30mm round. Like a mile or 5, too much over penetration. 7.62 with a 50 back up would likely do.
Steve · October 25, 2025 at 1:43 pm
4 or 5 rounds of 25mm will stop a Ryder truck immediately.
And another hundred or so will underscore it, and make sure nobody misunderstands, thinking it was an accident.

My former USMC son used a Mk19 grenade launcher in Iraq when somebody tried to drive a bomb car into their FOB. The other gate guard used a M249. They did not know who caused the car to blow up.
