Unfortunately, I don’t think Pretti’s murder will be a wake up call. The regime simply crossed a line, and once they step back, their supporters will forgive and forget.

They were never anti-govt, they were anti-people telling them what they could and couldn’t do. Can’t discriminate, have to treat everyone equal, etc etc. This govt removed their chains. And they’re using this govt to full-on retaliate for their “oppression.” Now they get to tell others what to do.

No one should be shocked that 2A nuts are blaming protestors for being armed. If a black man had a firearm they called the police. They wanted guns for themselves as a show of power over others.

Even if they could, why waste the time and effort when all it takes is Trump saying it was rigged?
strange to me that a lot of people on this website simultaneously agree that the administration is run by incompetents who struggle to carry out their agenda without major political blowback AND that they’ll pull off a complex and sophisticated effort to rig elections and prevent defeat in November

It’s infuriating that LEOs, who face actual violent criminals, who are tasked with deescalation first, who aren’t afraid to show their faces, have taken so long to call out larping, cowardly amateurs. LEOs should have been openly ridiculing them at the very least.

When they’re sentenced, they should rewatch what they did. Scheduled, even. Go to bed on Sundays knowing he has to relive that again every Monday morning.

Two things I’m almost certain of:
1. Elections won’t be cancelled.
2. The election won’t be rigged.
*because they don’t have to*
We know that all Trump has to do is say it was rigged. Enough ppl will believe him, and enough of those are willing to overthrow the govt.

At no point have I ever carried proof of citizenship. Even if I did, there’s nothing stopping ICE from calling it fake and confiscating it on the spot.

It’s the justice system’s job to go after criminals. After serving their sentence, it’s the justice system’s responsibility to hand them over to immigration authorities if it’s a crime that requires deportation. At no point in the process does immigration need to go after criminals.

If they keep it up for at least 10 years, NYC should see decreased crime, decreased DV, decreased poverty, improved educational outcomes, and greater upward mobility, especially for women. It’s not about cost, it’s about ROI.

“Just have the servicemembers follow their oath” sounds clean and simple in a skeet. In real life it’s anything but and it’s not practicable as a genuine check on civilian leaders. You’re asking young people with high school educations to make legal, constitutional decisions in an info-vacuum.
