I wonder how well this new policy will jibe with the castle doctrine?
Surely it will work, right? All those school shootings and accidental murders, they were for this. To stand up to tyranny. Surely Americans won't just roll over/cheer like they always do. Surely not. Lmao
Watching ICE target communities that have intentionally been disarmed as a result of mass shootings: lmao why don’t these dumbasses just shoot someone
I just hope they don't go too hard with the tweets and protests! They're getting results! And democratic senators writing letters! Oof!
/s
(I support the protesters, the ICE victims, and NOT ICE, but day after day it just gets worse, and that's all they're doing - tweeting and marching - as ICE commit atrocity after atrocity).
and what is it that YOU are doing about it?
He's adding more of nothing to nothing effective.
I agree. Other vital actions need to take place. However, they are doing vital work. Not everyone can pry secrets out of their digital assets. Not everyone can slip into the homes of their masters while they sleep. No, we very much need people documenting what’s happening. We need people to helping their neighbors when ditched in poor weather by thugs.
We already know how. It won't.
When ingroups do it, its castle doctrine. When outgroups do it its terrorism. There is no law in the US. Just an uncivilized savage land now.

well - considering the “assassination attempt” on Trump, and how anyone speaking against the regime is a “domestic terrorist,” my money is on the idea that very soon there will be some ICE agents that have an encounter with “ANTIFA thugs,” and this is where martial law will be declared.
Trump is insane right now, and he is big mad that he’s not getting his way in Switzerland; he’s getting bullied right back, and he’s starting to see that people are laughing at him.
If that was the goal it would've been false flagged already. The goal really is just a simple as they don't think their actions will have consequences, and so far they've been largely correct.
There already have been false flags. Just ones that sought to incite conflicts between protesters and the boots.
They want blood soaked antifa bodies. It will help to normalize the coming violence to their base. They will frame how it was just. They demonize the slain. It will ratchet it to a new level.
Can you cite any specifics? Because either things are actively spicier than I was aware of or you misunderstood what was being said.
I expressed that in frustration and anger. I have only seen one video of protests where there was something getting lobbed at officers from behind the protesters. There were claims that it was done by boot lickers, but I have no proof, and I can’t find the video now in the sea of content.
My frustration is that it is illogical to think they (MAGA in general) are not accustomed to doing false flags. I know that isn’t what you said. I protested in WA during BLM. There is a mountain of evidence of MAGA driving in and causing trouble in those events. I watched them peel down the streets in their trucks as we marched. I lived around them. I know what they spoke of. There are Boogaloos in jail for false flags shooting at cops during BLM: https://scholarlycommons.law.hofstra.edu/faculty_scholarship/1540/
I haven’t observed that same extent this time. I think many of those thugs are now ICE thugs. Also, the stakes are higher for false flaggers against ICE. They don’t want hurt either.
The legal side of it would probably be unfairly weighted in ICE's favor, but I suspect if they tried this in a place like Texas, by the time it got to court, those frozen water nazis would already be shot the hell up.
Which is why they're very carefully avoiding Texas, I suspect.
I expect that within a few months you'll find NICS checks returning "DENY" for anyone who has ties to terrorism. The evidence of terrorism will be membership in things ike the ACLU, being a registered Democrat, having a reading level of 8th-grade or higher, etc.
Bet they don't do it in castle doctrine states
Minnesota is a castle doctrine state.
Huh, TIL
