Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

just need someone to try and find out. Guys, im trolling ? Like hello in what world you shoot police and think your in the right ?
guys ?
im serious dont be dumb
Kenneth Walker shot police and Kenneth Walker was not only in the right, he was adjudicated on the matter and found not guilty by a jury of his peers:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing_of_Breonna_Taylor
Masked, warrantless federal thugs that are indistinguishable from home invaders will eventually be shot or even killed. There are reasons that the police operate the way they do, and they are usually not out of the good of their heart.
I cant remember the full details, but I do recall there was years ago where police busted into a house without a warrant (wrong house or something), didnt identify themselves, and the home owner.. who I think was former military? Opened fire and took several of them out.
and was found innocent in the resulting trial.
But even better than that, he lived through the initial encounter and made it to the trial.
ICE aren't police.
then be a dumb one that get shot for using force against state representative.
A lot of somebodies. One person is a scapegoat. Many people are a sentiment.
something to do with identification, the fact you have saw them. Even if i was swat i wouldnt really like to burst in the home of a veterant withou making them known im law enforcement. You have sevral story like that. They doesnt apply to ice. I was trolling. Dont try to use violence and force against ice.
Then it is really important to engage self protection. Put on respirators/gas masks. Wear thrift store coats. Carry dumb phones--you know, those phones that drug dealers use to use-- flip, prepaid. Carry a passport card. Heck, if you can obtain a Kevlar vest, it might save your life. Wear gloves, pads on your legs/knees under your clothes, a bike helmet. Those fuckers will throw you down on the pavement and injure you as much as they can especially once they got you on the ground and immobilized. Heck, I am a nurse and remember people who had spinal injuries wearing a plastic clamshell on their chest/back in order to keep it stabilzed... get those and dress warm underneath, and then over. It might save your spine.
