Wait, that's how they're actually dressed? They just look like random people. The fact that they don't get shot more speaks a lot about how well behaved the people they are kidnapping are.

[–] MrSmith@lemmy.world 3 points 15 hours ago

They don't get shot because guns are for mass-shootings.

Haven't read a single story where a gun was used against the tyrannical government / cops.

Mostly because you can't "self-defence" agaist the police in the US. You will always be shot to death on the spot.

I think they look more like a bunch of thugs than normal people.

[–] PaulBunyan@lemm.ee 85 points 1 day ago

It’s the masks. Their body language is softer than my hangover shit.

Those are thugs, who were under qualified for mafia or even any respectable gang so they applied for the government job.

[–] JacksonLamb@lemmy.world 3 points 10 hours ago

They look like NPCs.

The basic bitch version of fascism.

dont you guys have an amendment that allows you to shoot such militia?

for self defense against a rogue state and shit?

That was written when the people and the government had access to the same level of firepower.

They're also going after the population that are probably the unlikeliest to own firearms. That being said, if you're brown and not carrying a firearm and your "papers", you should probably change your habits. Fuck me, it's disgusting that this is the case in America.

They'd blend in a lot better if they didn't look like old western bandits about to rob a train with those masks.

Cowards. All of them. I hope they all get doxxed.
