Cemetery workers maced at gunpoint, detained trying to help man in river

Cut the lock on the cemetery, no warrant, no nothing.

I wonder how long it's going to be before people start taking matters into their own hands if this isn't stopped.

They are not trained federal agents. They are paid fascist Nazi thugs. They are Trump's SS.

Somehow many still think it won't happen to them. All ICE has to do is change their targets once they get tired of Latinos and MAGA will go right along. One word from their fuhrer is all it will take.

Are wanna be soldiers that would never be able to pass a physical let alone a psychological test to get in the into the armed service.

They are losers that are acting out their dream of being a real tough guy, and that is going to lead to some very dead people.

and bonuses per person detained. They are probably making more money than they ever have in their lives. All that money, plus they get to play "cops and robbers" with real guns.

... by now, everyone knows that Nosferatu Miller's plan from the git-go was to provoke people through ever more violent confrontations until some fed up individual or group goes supernova on their evil asses. And then PRESTO! President-in-name-only Tubba-Lardo invokes the Insurrection Act. I'm sure he thinks that'll give him carte blanche to order the wholesale extra-judicial slaughter of anyone and everyone that ever looked at him sideways. Of course there'll be collateral damage in the form of dead innocent bystanders, but hey, didn't some newly anointed deity say that a few dead passersby are the price we must pay to preserve the 2nd Amendment? Oh, wait... that was children he was referring to. Well, as some clever and insightful Republican once said, children don't vote, so...

I think this is the point.
They (he) is hoping for people to get so pissed off they start to physically resist. Even bring firearms into the mix. Like the preview we saw at the Dallas ICE HQ. Then he can say it's all out of control and declare Martial Law and pour the military into the streets with ICE goons given the OK to start using even more force with their firearms.

…desired outcome — because they want an excuse for invoking the Insurrection Act and Martial Law.

15. One of them is going to get shot. It's only a matter of time.

Surprising thing is it hasn't happened already. Perhaps that's what Herr Miller, the real president, is waiting for.

Sorry, Herr Miller. Not matter how hard you try to be a nazi, you'll always be Jewish.
