We somehow missed this gem from July 2009, from the Blackbird’s most excellent 2010 Olympic Mascot Mayhem flickr set. That’s Vancouver 2010 Integrated Security Unit Chief Operating Officer Bud Mercer in the Vancouver City Hall Council Chambers, displaying an image of Quatchi’s masked gang wielding Molotov cocktails. He got the picture off the Internet, though I can’t seem to find it myself (I guess that’s why he’s the security chief and I’m not). Apparently he thought the mascots would be some sort of terror threat — the woman seated to his right looks mighty worried.
Thanks, Blackbird!
