      But that’s interesting in of itself. They’re not going after gang members or violent offenders, they’re going for non violent/dangerous people.

        I was in several protests that were violently suppressed by police in the US, using tear gas, flash bangs, beatings etc. After threats and fascist violence, groups of armed leftists joined in more frequently. For whatever reason I can’t recall the police attacking while they were there. Like the IDF killing children, they only want defenseless victims.

      Extremely surprising that it didn’t happen yet.

      Liberals in America should be arming themselves and stockpiling ammo.

        Without civil asset forfeiture and wasteful budgets, would be hard to militarize as much as many US departments

        They’ve been playing Military Police for years now. Good news of course is the dozens of joints they’ve taken off our streets!
