8. Of course they have no problem with MAGAts parading around in full battle rattle sporting long guns.

I guess that is covered by the Second Amendment. A well regulated militia protecting private property and all.

[Cheezoholic]

15. I have full battle rattle on with my hunting rifle next to my desk while posting fuck these republican Nazi's ;) n/t

[flashman13]

24. I appologize for my previous flippant attempt at humor. This is really very serious.

After reading the article a second time, I see that being a person opposed Trump while breathing air can considered to be a violent threat no matter how innocuous their actions. Those persons are automatically suspect in the mind of this officer. And believe it or not, he (or she now) is also scared. They are going to be on a hair trigger.

Sooner or later there is going to be a police riot. There will be a stray shot or just a loud firecracker from who knows where and one of the agents decides his life is in danger. He randomly shoots the person in front of him. Back home where I grew up, what happens next is what we called buck fever. One man fires and they all let loose. And they keep firing until they run out of ammunition. It will be a massacre. It could very well be the spark that sets off mass violence.

One more thought. Think of the Kent State massacre. Quoting the wikipedia article, "Twenty-eight National Guard soldiers fired about 67 rounds over 13 seconds". They were carrying WWII vintage semiautomatic M1 Garand rifles. At best they can fire 2 rounds in 3 seconds or all 8 in those 13 seconds. With those 67 shots they managed to kill four people and physically wound 9 more. Given that these people involved in these ICE roundups are all cops of one kind or another, I can assume that the long guns they are carrying are probably M4s capable of firing 30 rounds in 3 seconds on full auto. Those same 28 cops could theoretically fire 840 rounds in that same 13 second. I will leave it up to you to consider and contemplate the possible consequences of that scenario. Once the shooting starts, I have absolutely no reason to think that there will be any fire discipline displayed. With the exception of the Marines, these guys are not drilled and trained soldiers. They may (or may not) have badges, but in reality they are just a bunch of semi strangers with guns. It is a formula for disaster.

25. They're not well regulated! Of course, under Trump... n/t

[B.See]

9. Didn't see any mention of DU specifically,

in the linked article (must have missed it), but as far as being considered dissidents (ideologically anti-fascists) in the eyes of Trump and his Nazis, I'd always assumed that to be the case.

[orangecrush]

12. Not specific

But said "on line posters".

That be us.

Pretty sure.

[highplainsdem]

19. DU and all the other online platforms where politics is discussed, and that aren't exclusively MAGA.

[orangecrush]

22. Precisely

[B.See]

21. Well, like I said

I'd always assumed that was the case.

They're just saying the quiet part out loud.

[PurgedVoter]

10. Please Let him call us all bad, horrible people!

There is no higher honor in our society than when he grants that honor to someone. It means that they are doing the right thing!

[irisblue]

13. " a broad "embracement of anti-ICE messaging."

Yeah oh yeah on yeah

[orangecrush]

17. No shit....

"with DHS saying there’s a “high likeliness” more Americans will soon turn against the agency,"

Ya think?

[Initech]

18. Fuck ICE! They are doing way, way more harm than good!

And Tom Homan is a drunk with power fucking maniac psychopath who needs a one way ticket to Mars on a Space X rocket now!

[rubbersole]

14. Surveillance this...🖕.

[Initech]

16. Hey MAGA, if you're reading this, go fuck yourselves!

[I_UndergroundPanther]

31. FDT forever

Deny Defend Depose


Nazi pig orange bastard fucking psychopath and all the trash people that work in his admin and who lick his boots. Fuck y’all.until the end of time

[The Blue Flower]

32. what took them so long?

In January, I knew it was only a matter of time until every person at DU would be considered an enemy. I'm pleasantly surprised everyday to find DU still up and running.

[GAJMac]

33. Well by God

I hope they're right in their assessment. I hope that there are MANY instances of "mundane activities" that are considered by government agencies to be "violent protests". Maybe this will finally be "a bridge too far" for normal citizens, and we can overthrow the cheating, lying, immoral assholes currently running things. Remember: There are more of us than there are of them.

[Kid Berwyn]

35. Traitors fear free speech.

Trump and his Turd Reich swarm, go to hell.

[dweller]

37. Reminder : Bimonthly meetings

Ideological recruiters will meet at unusual times in undisclosed locations


See you there !

[hwmnbn]

38. YAY!!! That means...

[LAS14]

39. I searched for "underground" and "democratic" in the article. Couldn't find it. What are you referring to? nt

[orangecrush]

40. From the link

Which is quite informative...

"Online posters are cast as ideological recruiters—or as participants in “surveillance sharing.”

[orangecrush]

41. Here is what DHS is telling every police force in the U.S.

J Edgar did the same thing for Nixon when this was made.

Good times.
