I'm not one for conspiracy theories but I do look at as many angles as I can think of. This seems like a perfect opportunity to settle out of court and thus funnel millions of tax dollars to a militia that will serve trump to the end.
Labelling this conspiracy means you haven't been paying attention. This is exactly what they've been using lawsuits and settlements for over the last 18 months. That and the crypto bullshit to funnel bribes.
I'm 100% convinced these Nazi militias make up the majority of the "ICE agents" we're seeing. That's why they don't identify themselves. These fuckers deserve anything they get.
Which is hopefully handfuls of lead.
Be sure to adjust your sights at a range before sending lead, practice practice practice
Tell that to Tommy Crooks ;)

Oh, no need to wonder - liberals have successfully convinced themselves that disarming themselves is the answer.
Pretty sure disarming everyone was the answer. But I don’t see gun enthusiasts stepping up to stop fascism, so looks like gun aren’t a part of it.
That’s what I said
It's an answer for anyone that's unwilling to accept reality as it is, but sure.
And yet here we are in reality, with all these guns, and you mfers don’t do anything. Pansy-asses. You’re like a force fed goose.
Jesus christ, how many times does this need to be spelled out?
There are people who agree that guns are bad and they are disarming themselves. There are people who disagree and are arming themselves. It just so happens they also support the current govt.
If you could go back 40 years ago and change so many things, sure taking guns away seems like a good call. It is not to anyone that actually understands reality.
Plenty of people who don’t support the government have guns. The point is no one is brave enough to use the guns either way.
There will be no revolutions. This is the next 50 years at least.
In 2022 every ideologically driven mass killing in the U.S. was carried out by the far right with an overwhelming number being carried out by white supremacists. In 2025 to date, every ideologically driven mass killing has been from the far right (this is no different than 2024, I have not looked at 2023 but I'm willing to bet the answer is the same). School shooters are overwhelmingly conservative.
You're right about them being cowards, you're wrong about them being unwilling to use them. You're right that there won't be revolutions, there will be massacres. They are waiting for the green light from their overlords that allows them to, legally, kill you.
Once they start getting shot back at, they will run and hide like the right-wing cowards they are.
Nice talk, they have armored vehicles and hate in their hearts.
They have hate, yeah. But they don’t have armored vehicles—unless you mean the police—they have ford trucks with thin metal walls and diabetes.
I'm sorry, I must be living in a schziophrenic delusion and the U.S. federal govt hasn't been slip and sliding into the deep end of the fascism pool and definitely hasn't been dumping resources and manpower (MAGA, let's be honest with each other - ICE is MAGA) into ICE. Thank God, that would be horrifying!
I think we may be talking about two different things. My neighbor, with the Trump flag and all his guns, he’s not gonna do goddamn shit. That’s who I’m talking about.
I'm talking about my cousin. He runs a grocery store (he claims he owns it, but really he leases it through Grocery Outlet).
I know some of the things he's done. I know many of the things he's said. They are terrifying.
I had no idea leasing a grocery store was a thing. They won’t let us own anything lol.
If you know some of the things he has done, I assume he has been punished for those things—assuming they are crimes?
Good thing the NRA are there to imply the right to bear arms against foreign enemies and kings as is their argument every single time. Perhaps they will implement it now. Perfect opportunity.
Anytime now…
Good thing we didn’t take their guns…
Any
Time
Now….
Oh and your entire idea is to blame the dems for this too.
What in the sweet fuck are you even talking about?
Maga likes guns. Maga will not disarm. Maga hates liberals. Liberals dislike guns. Liberals are disarming.
God forbid I pay attention to what's going on in the U.S.
I'm a liberal. Been a hunter all my life. I love guns.
You are making generalizations not factual statements.
Exception, not the rule - and the people downvoting me prove it. No one likes to be told their worldview is wrong.
Edit: look into ideologically driven murders in the U.S., then look at ICE getting 20k more troops and natl guard deployed to LA. Look at the toys they have and tell me your hunting rifle is going to do anything when they have fucking tanks and riot armor.
Ok buddy.
I don't think they understand a vocal minority.
MAGAs make firearms a part of their identity.
I'm guessing you'd agree that most liberal gun owners don't?
I think gun ownership and political ideology are a venn diagram and trying to generalize it is just dumb. It's also very regional. I live in upstate NY, belong to a rod and gun club and politics do come up but very few people present them as identity.
Fucking brown shirt bootlickers
This isn’t a theory, white protecting white is baked into the founding documents of this country. Of course it’s a scam to funnel money, that’s all they do
