My guess is that trump is putting the camo dudes into the cities....

[albacore]

...so that one or more of them will be killed.
THEN..he can go full authoritarian.

If you were in the Marines, you know the concept of "live bait".

[Walleye]

1. Agree.

[C_U_L8R]

2. He clearly didn't expect the Wall of Moms.

[mr_lebowski]

3. No one ever does! nt

[ZZenith]

7. Ha!

Very good!

[mr_lebowski]

10. You know how I roll ... what up my brotha!?!

[ZZenith]

14. Tryin' to stay sane through all of it.

Hope you are well!

[mr_lebowski]

17. Lots of loud music is keeping me (roughly) sane, thx for axing :) nt

[ZZenith]

21. LOUD MUSIC SAVED MY LIFE!!!

[mr_lebowski]

22. Shizz is about to get a lot louder too, just ordered one o' these on fleabay ...

https://audiophillness.com/denon-poa-5000/

Check out the Pictures tab ... shows the guts ... it's a friggin bad dog. 53 pounds of Made in Japan Muscle Baby!

Since it can be configured to do 4 equal-power channels, I'm gonna use it to bi-amp my Polk LSI-15's (for the moment anyway).

[ZZenith]

24. Might be able to hear that thing from here!

Love me some good old early 90’s class A. TURN IT UP!!!

[mr_lebowski]

27. Yeah, for better or worse 'Optical Class A' is a bit of marketing woo ...

It's a Class AB amp, its just there's something 'special' about how it operates when IN Class A mode. It's ... you know ... gets all OPTICAL and shit!

I got another clean 125W RMS to the center and rears too (Denon 4802, with a fat Toroidal transformer in this sucker too) and a pair of 50lb JBL sealed 10" subs with 300W RMS each (if you need a sub they're on a killer deal at JBL right now, 199 each ... Studio 550P ... they're AWESOME for that price).

When I saw a Home Theater AVR that looked like THIS does inside, for just over a Benji on Craiglist, I was like ... UMMMM ... TAKE MY MONEY!!!

https://www.crutchfield.com/S-5TQQFQ1Kb4j/p_033AVR4802/Denon-AVR-4802-A-V-Receiver.html

Yeah, you can definitely hear it a LONG way away if I crack open the window and crank it, even before the new amp

[live love laugh]

4. Nope THEY'RE gonna kill someone and ignite chaos. nt

[mr_lebowski]

8. Eventually, probably ... but they'll try to get one of themselves maimed or killed first ...

It's much better for PR/better excuse to escalate.

[HotTeaBag]

5. And it will happen.

Eventually, depending on where they get deployed and how aggressive they are with the populace there will be deaths - and quite possibly a lot of deaths - on both sides.

[rogue emissary]

6. Had the same thought.

Maybe not killed but injured in an attack would get him exactly what he wants.

[dixiegrrrrl]

18. Or just claim someone was killed.

Most everything else is fake, why not that?

[rogue emissary]

19. True.

[Under The Radar]

9. Yep. All he needs is a breadcrumb of justification

[Loge23]

11. It's us against them now

The IPOTUS has declared war against the American people.
Make no mistake - this is not against "criminals", this is against people who oppose his regime.
This is to preempt any mass demonstrations against his administration. They will attack us if we try.
Meanwhile, his complicit idiots are gathering on street corners with their prize - our flags.
This will be a long battle I'm afraid.

[Hoyt]

12. Let's hope no one is stupid enough to do that. Gunz, fires, looting, etc., seldom help the cause.

[BComplex]

15. It's trump's own goons that are building fires and looting.

They're setting up their wet dream.

[pwb]

13. Maybe just grab one of them. If they can we can.

No killing.

[albacore]

16. To be clear. I WASN't advocating for attacking the camo guys.

Just saying that - in any group - there are hotheads. Those camo guys are sniper-bait.
There's also a chance of a black-flag killing of one of them, too.

[Cousin Dupree]

20. Is it possible that this is some kind of trial or prep for instituting Martial Law prior to the

election?

[Bev54]

23. I think the test was in DC when he sent out the troops

this is the start of his authoritarian regime. The states need to start looking at their own rules about fed troops coming in. Portland does not have the needed wording to legally kick them out and I would suggest other states check their own and make changes as required.

[mnmoderatedem]

25. It almost already happened

the guy in Portland. Shot in the forehead almost between the eyes. He was doing noting more than holding up a radio. Shot was completely unprovoked and he was seriously wounded.

[BlueIdaho]

26. Hearts and Minds...

This is how you lose the war for America’s hearts and minds. Anyone’s version of the apocalypse begins with the military in the streets of American cities. Having a leering gleeful president grinning while he threatens us all with similar treatment is not going to win many votes.

Camera zooms to closeup of Trump’s sweating fat face...
“We had to destroy Portland in order to save it.”
Blackout To voiceover...
“You can stop the madness on November 3rd.”
