They went to a judge and got a warrant to investigate the scene - a public area, that’s already unusual - and the brownshirts refused.

The level of bullshit went up a lot more just then.

      And people want to have the balls to tell me I’m in the moral wrong for saying we should be fucking blasting on sight by now.

      I know it’ll kick off some terrible awful shit; but it’s either rip the bandaid off now and get it started on our terms, or wait until there are far fewer of us because we just keep letting them execute us without cause or consequence.

        Sabotage is also an option, and can be nasty in winter. Make it untenable for them to stay. Keep them exposed to weather for long enough and they’ll start quitting. Break windows, break heaters, spray water on everything, etc.

            Spark plug insulators, anything hardened ceramic, and some types of volcanic gravel all work. Anything harder than glass that comes to a sharp point.

              A rubber band and two fingers makes a very effective slingshot that can be acquired almost anywhere.

                You aren’t causing any damage with that. Use a few condoms for the slingshot rubber and just whittle a Y shape out of some wood to tie it to. That will get a ball bearing through a 2x4 with a good arm.

        Unorganized and random violence will just justify the insurrection act and martial law.

        In minecraft servers what you want to do is target high profile individuals, that has historically been the best way.

          You still need to disrupt operations on the ground. Logistical disruption does a lot more damage at the lowest level here. If they can’t get goons together they pose significantly less threat in the first place.

          Motor oil balloons on windshields, broken windows, flat tires, tailpipe obstructions, anything to slow down movement and coordination.

            I mean for this to be effective you need to get sympathizers within an organization. This means applying for ICE jobs and wrecking it from within. Or places they outsource work to.

            Do they use a local shell station that’s hiring? Whoops a customer spilled soda on the credit card machine and the pump is tampered with to say 1 gallon is 2. That will be 200 dollars cash.

    Why are local cops surrendering the 10th amendment to a handful of feds? They have 10x that in cops, right there, overwhelm them to stand up for your state.

    This is why no one likes these dems except for the republicans that puah them around.

        Bad leadership. Blue cities have fascist police, do not police them, are dirty and vulnerable to those cops if they do check them. But more than anything they are chosen to be weak, to not challenge entrenched interests.

        Same with biden, hillary, kamala, et al. They win as rejection of the other party on the sheep that trust the ivy league suits on tv to lead them. Maybe 10 pc of the population. But they vote in primaries and are led by those ivy leaguers that prevent any real leaders challenging them.

        People like mamdami, in every district. Including some white dudes, why are there no white left leaders contesting? They are suppressed by the controlled opposition and republicans and both of their donor bases. Killed in the cradle.

            You are the one helping them by ensuring we get candidates in opposition that can’t win. You are a Generally Important Maga Player, or [redacted] for short.

                Every accusation is a confession for Generally Important Maga Players such as yourself!

                It’s sad you could even think you are helping, just goes to show you the path to hell is paved with fucking morons.

        The police are fascist generally. They are supervised ostensibly by democratic leaders, sheriffs that are elected excluded. City cops are overseen my mayors and city councils usually, with the power to replace them at will, in theory. In practice they are dirty and the cops could take them down, and were chosen to be weak and not upset entrenched interests, which sucks for us now with Republicans that have learned to play high stakes chicken with them and win every single time.

      Apparently that is showing up on the reddit thread because someone posted it there after these events. Unless you can link the specific picture on reddit that is older.

      But in any case the video shows ICE agents disarmed the man (by taking the weapon from his waistband) before murdering him, so we do know that they have the gun.

          That’s the age of the thread, the OP was posted 5 days ago. It doesn’t mean reddit didn’t give Google a picture that was posted later in the thread when Google went looking for the photo. It seems to be a weekly thread (which would be pinned) so it seems likely that people would continue commenting days after its posting.

          Someone posts a weekly mega thread that stays up a week, with comments made throughout the week. -> Someone posts this photo after the ICE fucks murder the guy they disarmed in said mega thread -> You ask Google to look for the photo online -> It shows you the mega thread posted 5 days ago, because it now contains the image

          Not that I don’t think ICE isn’t that incompetent and willing to lie. But I’d need to see a link to the actual photo on reddit as proof that it’s older.

            You’re explaining reality. I understand it’s important to not trust ICE but people being incompetent and not understanding what a date is actually referring to is just dumb.
