Hey America.

Remember when you can't afford healthcare or groceries? But immigration officers can afford electricution strangulation gloves?

Maybe y'all should use that second amendment you've been masturbating to for a century.

The people who are masturbating about it are now the ICE agents.

Just the idea of shock gloves sounds like some kind of nepobaby invention where they got a gurillian dollar defense contract to develop a new nonlethal weapon, instead of actually training ICE members.

And the person who invented it didnt even know what to make so they did a mood board with chatgpt and uploaded all their punisher fan art and tactical gear edc posts and it spat out this idea.

Like what was even wrong with the taser gun? Why do you need it in your gloves? Just sounds like the dumbest most punisher fanfic turbo virgin idea. Like the guys who go to jail for impersonating a police officer and stolen valor at the same time invented it.

Well for one they cant shoot their gloves like a normal tazer. The less shooting the better. Cannot wait for one of the nazis to accidentally electrocute themselves when taking a piss.

I was pointing out how its less practical than the normal tazers which they still don't use. The idea of it sounds dangerous to the user too.

The taser gun is the ultimate form. But I agree with your sentiment about less shooting the better.

I guess the point I want to drive home is this taser gloves thing likely costs 300 thousand dollars for a single glove and is funded by tax payer dollars, and its going to be just a toy they bring out to torture people for fun, and otherwise foregotten. They're still going to pull their guns out first and foremost, and when its slow they'll abuse their drones and gloves for fun.

Ideally we wouldn't give them anymore money, my critisim was more a joke but I was trying to point out how the system is so backwards I can imagine a scenario where this was proposed instead of making the ice agents sit through one more paid class with at least the bare minimum a guide on how not to shoot people immediately.

Is this a thing that happened? It doesnt make up for all their murders and detentions and deportAtions and what not. But it I hope a bottle of piss short circuited a nazi agents gear.

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Or just fucking shoot them. Don't you have a right to bear arms or some shit that made America so great?

[–] HotsauceHurricane@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

So long as it isnt around ice officers

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Why does being around ICE officers matter? They're more than willing to shoot you for no reason....

Why in the last 2 years America went from "Don't fuck with us!" to "We're too scared to go outside"

[–] peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 weeks ago

Listen im okay with pissing on america, and very much fuck ice. Im not a gun owner.

But no, the right to bear arms isnt what made america kinda good. Also legally owning a gun doesnt make it legal to shoot federal agents, as much as i might want to see those agents get shot.
