... and my mother, bless her soul, wears army boots.

Honestly, you've never talked to or been involved with "black block" activists? You don't think they are actually real? It's easy to get in touch with them, find out what their views and to even meet up with them. I have a few acquaintances that went in that direction. They ain't cops. And one of them ended up in jail.

You don't have to take my word for it, you can check it out yourself.
