Ring footage shows an agent pulling his gun on her, after which he shoves her down multiple times, pushes her back into house & slams the door.

All because she was asking for proof of a warrant. They refused to even give their names & badge numbers.

That's what happens when the left goes full divestment from and demonization of guns for multiple decades. Even Marx knew it was a dumb idea, but saying "hell yes we are coming for your AR-15s and AK-47s" was just too tempting. The far right gun nuts are going authoritarian and the centrists are still hoping this doesn't end in a shooting (civil) war.
