    No. They want to have an excuse to declare martial law and start shooting randomly. Leave it to Minnesota, they’re handling it right.

      I understand that but imo this is not going to end well, let alone peacefully.

      I just don’t see this administration/dictatorship conceding to anything just because production might have slowed down for a little bit. They’re in too deep now; they can’t just walk things back and go “whoops, sorry! How about we only prosecute a tiny fraction of agents that actually committed acts of force/violence to placate the masses” and it all cycles back around. They’re either going to get what they want or we’re going to have to stop them from taking it over our cold lifeless bodies.

      Tell me I’m exaggerating.

        They’ll do that in a heartbeat. In fact, they do it alllll the fucking time. LA is a perfect example and relates to this. They didn’t have anyone on their side so they picked a new target.

      This shit drives me absolutely insane.

      They don’t need an excuse

      They’re going to do it anyway, so people need to fucking defend themselves however they can. Stop spouting this horseshit

        This is what I’m fucking saying! They’re not pulling any punches so why the fuck are we?!
