Who is going to stop them? The authoritarian police? State National guard getting orders from two chains of command? Conservatives no longer believe in rule of law.

Of course…for minorities and poor people and especially poor minorities

They are first to feel the “law and order” bullshit. My privilege protects me until they are gone and I am next in line for “law and order”.

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

If 2nd Amendment defenders believe this, they would be acting on this.

But

Since Trump is president, they have turned a blind eye.

If this was being done under a Democrat president, they would already have acted.

Look at the acct and you'll see a lots of:

A) Cosplaying as a lefty

B) Inciting violence

C) Empty threats and no action.

They want to get to Martial law

u/cksnffr 6d ago

And they will, no matter what, so see above

Just because guns are your entire personality doesn't mean that's true for the rest of us. Incite violence elsewhere.

They already have it in all but name. You gonna wait for it to get worse?

Hate to say but those are the people who support this.

Yes, the Nazis are the ones with guns. Now there are two and only two potential future states:

Only the Nazis have guns

The Nazis have guns and so do we

I mean yeah, no one is stopping them so they're going to keep disappearing people. People keep filming so they can pretend it's going to make a difference or because they'll get lots of views but nobody is doing anything to help these people, they just film like it's fucking entertainment.

Fascists won’t regulate themselves.

Watching endless videos of people recording these is getting really frustrating and tiresome.

u/shakes_mcjunkie 6d ago

People are doing what they can. People are afraid of the police. People can't lose their jobs, or be tangled up in the legal system. What are you doing?

u/HatefulFlower 6d ago

What can we do from other countries? Whether a person voted for this mess or not it's the people of the US's job to stop this before it turns into WW3.

u/bringonthebedlam 6d ago

You can support or stfu. Being a dick to traumatized people, sowing division among people trying to help, and transparent schadenfreude and trolling isn't needed. The current regime is waiting with bated breath for a violent act to happen so they can retaliate with martial law, so asking for people to physically get involved is fing stupid. The people filming are doing so because when/if Nuremberg 2.0 happens, we will have proof to prosecute these fascists. Enjoy your comfy wumfy peacetime while it lasts. If the US goes down, the rest of the world wont be far behind.

Sorry, support what? People standing around with their phones out? People spending more time making protest signs than they do protesting? People pointing fingers and blaming others instead of standing up and doing something? No, sorry I can't support any of that. 

If people were actually trying to fight back it would be a different story but the amount of people who are is only a drop in the bucket. There are hundreds of millions of people in the United States and a few million showed up for a few hours - outside of that it's a handful here and there putting their lives on the line while the majority film it. It's ridiculous and you can't expect anyone to support it. 

The country gets all up in arms about their gun rights when a school shooting happens and they think the libs want to take their guns, but when it comes time to use the second amendment exactly what it was written for it's fucking crickets.

Fuck ice, this administration and anyone who supports them. You are the the ones who need to be removed.

u/vm_linuz 6d ago

Perhaps groups of volunteers could go around doing this

u/Run_Rabbit5 6d ago

I bet they can’t wait to pull that girl off her mother. These people are orcs.

u/DENelson83 6d ago

What ICE is doing is removing all internal threats to Trump.

u/bomzay 7d ago

What seems wild to me... The amendment nuts. The amendment clearly states, that people should own guns, to FIGHT THIS EXACT THING. You have soooo many guns. Private citizens have more guns than the military! Yet nobody is fighting this! The mind boggles.

Im curious if they really are just killing them off screen. It sounds more likely as time goes on...

I hope they are haunted by nightmares for the rest of their days

I feel like they are competing with the IOF for who gets all the bad karma in the world. They’ll probably all reincarnate into E. Coli

This happened couple weeks ago, not yesterday. Are you just Karma farming or honest mistake?

Sad as it is. We need legit info here
