Can't wait for dems to retake power eventually and do absolutely nothing to prosecute these criminals. 'We have to promote unity to heal the divide.'
If the dems were worth a damn they would be loudly shouting from the rooftops 'when we control the levers of power you will be held accountable for violating the constitution'
What about this memo that says they can’t? It also states we can bear arms to protect ourselves from tyranny so… check mate Nazis 
They clearly abandoned their oaths at all levels, so that document doesn't mean anything anymore if everybody willfully ignores it daily. At that point, it's just ink on a paper that is just barley better than a spill.
Cool. Guess what the 2nd Amendment says?
"ICE says its officers can forcibly enter homes . . . "
I've got a gun that says they can't.
Tally-ho boys!

It is legal to booty trap your own house. Unrelated, just a funny thought.
No, that's illegal. But AFAIK in all states you can wait inside your door with a shotgun and blast anyone who breaks into your home illegally.
Better yet, you have the constitutional right to organize 30 or your neighbors to use guns to protect each other from marauding thugs.
Its not, but if you are going to Home Alone a bunch of ICE agents illegally entering your house, please record that shit. If its funny enough the jury will absolutely not convict you.
Imagine those fucks stepping on toy cars and sliding down a stairwell or being hit with powdered sugar and then set on fire.
Now I want to see a version of Home Alone where it's ICE and all the traps are as deadly as they would be in real life.
There would be piles of bodies around the McCallister house. I wonder if Mac Culkin is busy these days
A memo????
Ha!
A lot of these guys are going to be killed.
Nothing of value will be lost.
-Both sides, but for different reasons.
Those bullets could have been used for fun evenings in the gun range, so there was some lost value
Oh no. Anyway...
Turns out all you need is a Supreme Court majority on your side and you can wipe your ass with the Constitution.
Same as it's always been, they're just being more brazen about it
You don't even need the courts of your side. The Regime has directly defied court orders time and time again.
What you really need is a citizenry that's too afraid or complicit to defend themselves.
Turns out all you need is a Supreme Court majority on your side and you can wipe your ass with the Constitution.
Obviously. That is the whole point of the Supreme Court. The surprising thing is that there wasn't more public concern when Trump selected his sycophant judges.

They will absolutely come for the guns next. Once the population is disarmed the civil war will begin. Martial law. Police state. No privacy protections. All amendments abolished. Civil rights act abolished. Military checkpoints at all state borders. Reinstated draft. 10% inflation. 20% unemployment. Reeducation centers. Prison work camps. State takeover of media. Iron curtain. Restricted Internet.
This year. Get out while the borders are open.
This year. Get out while the borders are open.
Some people have to stay behind to sabotage the Regime.
Don't got the money for that. My best option is to fight, provided the people of my state are also willing to die for a better future.
If you think they will take guns away from Americans in 2026 at any kind of scale you are very naive
Doesn't mean they won't try
All I know is that "they wouldn't do that.." had always been answered with "yes they are"
Prisoners are profitable and will only become increasingly profitable as they start using them as slave labor, which is specifically allowed under the Constitution. Only chattle slavery was abolished. When they are no longer subject to being voted out of office there is every incentive in the world to arrest people.
So new executive order: we gotta stop all the school shootings therefore all guns are illegal. Gun owners will be required to turn in their weapons in exchange for a pennies on the dollar buyback. These weapons will then be sold by the government to who the fuck knows. This will be followed by a house to house compliance check where you either produce your receipt or submit to a warrantless search. Anyone caught with a weapon will be sent to a prison work camp making iPhones and drones. Simple as that.
Oh you want to fight back? Bueno, now you're a terrorist. This justifies further military presence in your town and seizure of all of your assets. You will be lucky if your family isn't required to pay upfront for your prison stay.
I am not being naive. I am being real. I am an American but I was not educated in the American school system. I understand what is happening because it has happened a thousand times to a thousand other countries. There is a standard operation of events and we are following a textbook march into dictatorship.
Do you know anything at all about the laws surrounding prison labor?
We are witnessing an administration who does not consider themselves to be bound by established laws and norms. We are watching our constitutional rights being eroded one by one in real time. Do you think he will ever say "oh man I would love to do something but it would be illegal if I did". Who is being naive now?
Other than the black Panthers ain't nobody already with guns doing anything right now.
