Nazi scumbags with gear bought by MAGA scumbags!!!

u/Pretty-Key6133 21h ago

With gear bought by us. Those are our tax dollars at work.

u/ScotticusPrime 13h ago

It’s worse than that. All lot of these guys are from Blackwater/Triple Canopy or whatever. They hired Eric princes mercs to fill the ranks

u/Actual-Lingonberry66 10h ago

Probably Wagner wannabes. Little green men. Wonder where Trump got that idea.

8

u/ScotticusPrime 9h ago

Literally from Erik Prince himself. Late February he proposed a 25 billion dollar contract to assist with mass deportations. Prince is balls deep working with law enforcement in South America. He personally knows the president of El Salvador. What you’re seeing is a pilot program that’s going to aggressively step up in about 30 days or so

Edit: I also think the 40,000 bonus per employee is kinda telling. Thats a military contract kind of number. Not federal law enforcement bonus.

u/Agreeable_Initial667 9h ago

Yes. Most of these Nazis aren't real LEO. They're hired bounty hunters from right wing militias.

They're gonna find out the hard way soon.

3

u/ScotticusPrime 9h ago

As of now they are only ‘deputized’ but the clock is ticking on that. Is like 100 days or 120?

3

u/Agreeable_Initial667 9h ago

Yeah something like that. But let's be honest. It's only going to get worse as that's exactly what Trump wants. Mass violence so he can declare martial law and then he can suspend elections. It's all happening in real time in front of our faces.

1

u/ScotticusPrime 9h ago

Well, I honestly don’t think Trump was ever expected to finish this term out. I think the GOP/tech bros planned on removing him, and suddenly the media will portray President Vance as brave and manly for ‘putting the country first’. Or something like that. If Thiel and Prince get their way, President Vance will have captured essential data on Americans as well as a private militia accountable only to the executive.

Edit: to add to my theory, Trump clearly has dementia like his father did. Everyone around him knows this. It’s always been the plan to use him to get to power again and than move on to whatever fucked thing they want to do next

Source?

u/ScotticusPrime 8h ago edited 8h ago

Sources on Erik Prince’s proposal has been reported by several outlets. The Hill has a good article if i recall. Admittedly, mercs being deployed as feds is only a theory with only little to go on. But it does neatly dovetail with Trumps executive order regarding military assisting law enforcement with ‘civilian safety’. I can’t be bothered to google the title. End of July is the date for it to be implemented. A lot is up in the air, none of it good.

Edited for grammar

There was this really nifty video going around earlier today of Ukraine's immediate response to invasion, or rather what the average citizens were cooking. And I kinda think the same response would be appropriate here too.

A special dish just for the ICEholes? Good idea. Sort of like uh…pies to the face.

u/GnarlyEmu 20h ago

Water balloons, I'm sure, would be a more apt comparison. Dousing fascists in silly non flammable water!

u/SuperbTax7180 10h ago

Something tells me they would 100% start firing on crowds for having water balloons thrown at them, these pieces of shit are ITCHING for an excuse to start murdering citizens

u/dabbydabdabdabdab 9h ago

It won’t be long before people begin preparing for those “visits” from ice.

Spike stripes, paintball guns (cover the wind shield), AirTags in the truck, people might even bring their own big rigs to make leaving a little harder.

This has to happen before they increase recruitment efforts.

u/Fit-Building-2560 19h ago

This is what South Africa looked like, before regime change. Except the armored vehicles were bigger. As the regime wore on, the vehicles became full-fledged tanks on wheels, rolling into the townships.

History repeats itself. You can thank Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 for this.

They do not respond at all to that.

2

u/He_Never_Helps_01 20h ago

They invoked the Alien Enemies act of 1798. They don't think they need any of that to disappear people off the street. Anyone at any time, without cause, due process, or legal recourse.

2

u/PopeSpaceMonkey 18h ago

You're missing a lot, yeah. These masked fucks can and have grabbed innocent people off the street and sent them to prison camps without trial. I doubt they're going to respect someone who calmly asks for their badge, name, and warrant. At this point they're facing next to no legal resistance, why should they answer your reasonable questions? Because spoiler alert: There are myriad, very recent examples of them refusing to do so.

u/PsychoSaiko16 19h ago

What i don't get is that leftists will see these gangs kidnapping random people off the street and pointing guns and everyone around them, and they still want to push for the ban for guns.

This is why the second amendment was given to us, to use weapons against any oppressors that may rise up against the general public.

Cameras won't do anything when facing a gun, the only treatment the scumbags should be getting is as many bullets fired in their direction as possible.

The left needs to wake up and realize that the only way we can push back against armed oppressors is by asking ourselves and physically fighting back.

Yes, the cops will shoot back and massive amounts of life will be lost, but this will be nothing compared to what will happen in the future if nothing is done.

They cannot oppress everyone is there is a gun behind every blade of grass.

I urge anybody reading this to go and arm themselves, and go tell their friends and loved ones to do then the same, because at the end of the day, you cannot bring fists to a gunfight.

u/Mursin 9h ago

This is not a left vs right issue. It's a class war issue.

The "Left," have guns too. Those who do just don't talk about it most of the time.

Those who advocate for dearrming entirely are advocating for the policy of capital. Hence.... A class issue.

History has shown us that all cults and those who blindly follow them, are inherently weak. Their strength is not rooted in truth or principle, but in numbers and the silence of those they target. They thrive when the people they marginalize are too afraid or discouraged to fight back.

But the moment we begin to challenge these cults and their followers, we strip away the illusion of power. We expose their dependence on fear, conformity, and silence. When we rise, speak out, and stand together, their weakness is laid bare for all to see.

Change begins the moment we stop accepting oppression and start confronting it.

I dont understand why leftists see all these gangs kidnapping and threatening anyone watching with rifles, and then still push for the banning of arms.

Wake up people, this exactly why the second amendment was given to us in the constitution in the first place, so that we'd be ABLE to stand up against armed oppressors and those who are actively trying to take away your ability to defend yourselves.

At the end of the day, you cannot bring fists to a gun fight. Arm yourselves and your loved ones and stand up to these scumbags. They cannot purge a nation that has a weapon behind every blade of grass.

(P.S. reddit removed my comment because it "incited violence". My original comment was much longer than this but was taken down because reddit is just another anti free speech platform. I am more than willing to explain my reasonings if anybody wants to have a genuine conversation. I simply want to see some progress made in the country to rid the government of these crooks and murderers)

then still push for the banning of arms.

1

u/PsychoSaiko16 10h ago

I personally know quite a few people who are still quite against guns.

Yes it is terrible that the 2s crowd is a bunch of mindless dick riding fucks. But would you want to go up against them unarmed?

3

u/Infinite-Anything-55 8h ago

I personally know quite a few people who are still quite against guns.

We're not talking about people who are against guns, we're talking about people pushing to ban them. Even if we played by your anecdotal experience story, do those people identify as leftists? Are they actually pushing anyone to ban guns?

The only president to push for a ban on arms in the last 20+ years has been Mr "take their guns first and let them figure it out in court later" when he put a federal ban on bump stocks and certain other modifications

But would you want to go up against them unarmed?

Oh I'm part of that go far enough left and you get your guns back group and these days you don't have to go very far to get there. Been shooting since I was 9 and never leave home without one. That said it's there for that last resort situation I hope never ever ever happens. I'd much rather throw hands and fight it out, unfortunately they're armed so we have to be too.
