I somehow missed Dump's extended monologue last month on the use of soup as a deadly protest weapon

Dump: “And then they have cans of soup. Soup. And they throw the cans of soup. That’s better than a brick because you can’t throw a brick, it’s too heavy. But a can of soup, you can really put some power into that, right?

And then, when they get caught, they say, “No, this is soup for my family.” They’re so innocent. “This soup is for my family.” It’s incredible. And you have people coming over with bags of soup – big bags of soup. And they lay it on the ground, and the anarchists take it and they start throwing it at our cops, at our police. And if it hits you, that’s worse than a brick because that’s got force. It’s the prefect size. It’s, like, made perfect.

And when they get caught, they say, “No, this soup is for my family.” and then the media says, “This is just soup. These people are very, very innocent. They’re innocent people. These are just protestors. Isn’t it wonderful to allow protesting?”

No, there’s – and, by the way, the media knows it better than we do. They know what’s going on. I don’t know what’s wrong with them. They’re doing our country a tremendous disservice – I’ll say that.”

I was imprecise in my wording.
