If we go to a Jaguars game, and a bunch of people in our section are all wearing Jaguars gear, and I asked you, "what do you think these people want?" would you say, "gosh, who really knows the motives of others anyhow?"

I am cynical by nature, so, no telling. Could be in a section filled with a bunch of Benedict Arnold's for all I know. They could even be Chinese spies speaking in British accents with the Spanish language. 

People snap, man. One minute, you wake up, you roll over, you squeeze your wife's butt before getting up to go to work and then "Boom" Paul in Finance is having a bad day and decides he's going to take it out on everybody by playing spray and pray with a gun he just recently bought. 

The funny part, this is the best part, now that I think about it, how many alphabet soup agencies have been called out for having said agents dressed up in uniforms they shouldn't be in, to, you know? Paint a distinct narrative or rile up the masses?
