It's illegal to say: "People should set up sniper nests and pick off these oafish cretins one by one"
But it was okay for me to say it right then because I was just telling you it's illegal to say

That would be illegal to say.
I don't think it would be illegal to say that if you did do that and got killed after taking several I'd totally go to your wake.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Took ya long enough 
IT WOULD CERTAINLY BE A SHAME if anything were to happen to ICE while all this CATASTROPHIC ICE STORMING is going on that would render them UNABLE TO FLEE OR BE RELIEVED BY EXTERNAL REINFORCEMENTS were they to suddenly come under DURESS
Tbh the urban design of most of the US is basically perfect to ambush groups walking down the streets. Big, mostly empty streets surrounded by one or two story houses that are typically above street level and easy to exit the sides or rear or get off the roof.
Two riflemen crossfiring could decimate a squad and be out the back door before anyone knew what happened. Even just a lone shooter with trigger discipline could do a lot of damage. I've always been surprised it doesn't happen at all.
in before the lock on this incredibly good post
The word open-carry is exactly what it sounds like. It means that you have to display that you are carrying the weapon. For the non-US, the logic behind the law was that openly holding a gun meant that you weren't trying to commit any crimes. If you hide your gun, people thought you were trying commit a crime.
It is illegal to conceal a gun without a license. In order to be doing "open-carry", your gun must be visible to the people around you. If you hide that you are carrying a gun, that is considered illegal.
Also you need to have a permit to do open carry in Minnesota, Minnesota is one of the few states that requires you to have a license to do open carry.
Pretti was licensed, not that the punishment for having a gun when you're not supposed to is summary execution.
My comment is not about Pretti. My comment is replying to a post telling people to find "vantage points and cover".
in the context of getting to a vantage point, carry laws don't always apply to disassembled or packaged firearms. I wouldn't go from the sporting goods store to the bank, but the law accommodates driving home or to the range etc.
also if someone is doing their best miss pavlichenko i'm not sure they're worried about carry laws anymore.
Small correction, it’s not illegal to conceal without a permit everywhere in the US. FL for example now allows anyone to do so, if they meet all the requirements to get the permit.
No fed posting but all those dorks just standing in close groups while their victims are prone 🤔
ICE to see you 
lots of clock towers and book depositories in a city
At first I was wondering why something like this hasn't happened yet, because it would almost certainly work and if someone did do this they personally could probably get away with it.
Thing is ICE is basically always surrounded by community members that are doing surveillance on them and in the event of something happening would certainly fire into the crowd of civilians. Not to mention that the most vulnerable in the community would end up suffering the most from state retaliation.
People are starting to arm up and tensions are running high so it might happen anyway, but if someone were to plan this kind of thing out there are a lot of problems with adventurism like that
The countryside surrounds the cities
Does it have Stand Your Ground laws?
If ICE agents started getting shot from snipers, it would crush their morale
