There is no way this is actually legal. I know the law doesn’t apparently matter anymore but I would be really surprised if ICE can just bust down a door without a search or arrest warrant for a crime.
There is no way this is actually legal.
Even before Trump, a lot of what “normal police” did could be characterized in this way - this is “just” the next step.
But yeah, no, it’s not legal even in the US. Until it turns into a full autocracy and the leaders have unmitigated power to define what is.
Yet they’re still doing it on a daily basis (kudos to @CubitOom for sharing all those videos) with the DHS’ support.
I never thought I’d see this happen in the U.S. in my lifetime. It’s a matter of time before people start shooting these assholes.
And when it does start happening they declare martial law.
Is there a functional difference between what’s happening and martial law?
Yeah, martial law applies to white people as well.
Exactly. They are chomping at the bit for a reason to do that, and actively trolling us into it. Not to invoke Godwin’s Law, but there is precedent here.
Several states, including Texas, have upheld the citizen’s right to self defense against cops who are in the wrong.
Since they always go in with guns drawn, proportionality means deadly force is fair game against a deadly threat. People have been acquitted for killing cops who busted into the wrong house.
Dangerous game to play, but I’d imagine that you’re right, and that we’ll start seeing some out of control cops get put in the ground before this madness ends.
Ends? This is just the beginning of fascism. Buckle up, it’s gonna be a hell of a ride!
People have been acquitted for killing cops who busted into the wrong house.
Sure, but I’d like to see some statistics. Percentage where the cops won such cases, and where the home owner won. And how all that compares to the opposite case: cops accidentally killing home owners.
I think the more important statistic is not the ration of won/lost court cases but alive/dead homeowner after a gunshot. Being right is nice but being alive is kinda important.
It’s why I say it’s a dangerous game to play. I think we all have some notion of the odds.
It was always happening
Texas pigs bleed like any others
Quick fun idea for the whole family.
Get armed and get trained.
Time is running out
