      Not yet. I tend to try and do it when there’s not a crowd to avoid confrontation, as I am in a heavy red area. But, while I’d no longer consider myself swoletariat, I’m still a reasonable large guy. So, ymmv. I did do one in front of a sheriff deputy a couple weeks ago and he gave me a weird look but didn’t say anything.

          Lol, I’m a middle aged white guy peeling stickers at 8am in the suburbs. It’s not that ballsy. The biggest risk was probably when I stole the America First campaign sign last month.

          Quadcopters would probably make burning war rig flags way more safer though. Also, lasers.💁

                I’ll pass this along but my friend is probably gonna tell me that 10w laser diodes on amazon are a bit expensive. I heard he is really into laser engraving though.

                Take my word; there is actually a few ways to figure out if a laser was used.

                More than likely, depending on the habits/state of the scene it will be blamed on a refraction like I’ve seen with “crystal orbs”. This is thrown out the window (pun intended) if the nearby window is shaded or the direction it is facing is away from the sun/possible points that could refract.
