What the woman who brought her baby to a political riot was probably thinking

Seeing Californian rats get justifiably bullied by feds is genuinely making my day. They could have kept it to peaceful protests to grandstand all they wanted but then they had to obstruct ICE and damage property.
Every new clip makes me smile.
Fuck bug hive California scum. Obey the law or be punished.

Edit: To be clear, I don't want anyone hurt, maimed or killed by feds or anyone else. Only a gentle bullying to get them back in line and embarrass them and arresting anyone breaking the law. And if anyone is detained for breaking the law they should investigate their family to see if there's any overstayed visas or border hoppers.

it's always the fucking women
like, it's not even funny at this point

"It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers−out of unorthodoxy.”​

That baby is a little retarded bitch. Can't handle tear gas? Go back to pre-school for gays, nigga. A real baby would smoke that shit up like he was hotboxing a car. I hope this baby gets bullied for being such a stupid little pussy.

California would likely go through a reconstruction period if this happened. Deciding what gets split, who the new governors are, etc. They effectively would be a territory for a while before becoming a state again. Or multiple

If we could actually carpetbag these fucks it would be so funny.

It's like they saw barricades in a movie once, but not really, and tried to make them with random shit they found on the street. Are these people retarded? Wait, don't answer that.

There was muttering from the defenders. Most of them had a look Vimes recognized, because it was one he was trying to keep off his own face. It was the look of people whose world had suddenly been swept from under them, and now they were trying to tap-dance on quicksand.

He tossed away the stupid pompous megaphone. He cupped his hands. "Some of you know me!" he shouted. "I'm Sergeant Keel, currently in command of the Treacle Mine Road Watch House! And I order you to dismantle this barricade--"

There was a chorus of jeers and one or two badly thrown missiles. Vimes waited, stock-still, until they'd died away. Then he raised his hands again.

"I repeat, I order you to dismantle this barricade." He took a breath, and went on: "And rebuild it on the other side, on the corner with Cable Street! And put up another one at the top of Sheer Street! Good grief, you don't just pile stuff up, for gods' sake! A barricade is something you construct! Who's in charge here?"

There were sounds of consternation behind the overturned furniture, but a voice called out: "You?"

I cannot stress how good the Discworld novels are. One of the unspoken crimes of the wokies that took over publishing is they fucked Pratchett out of every literary award possible because he wasn't pushing ~The Message.~

They could avoid all this trouble by just ordering the LAPD to sick 'em, but noooooo

Car on fire at Anti-ICE protest in Paramount, California.

If anyone wants some real-time live coverage, I came across a Twitch channel covering the protests from multiple points of view.

Nothing says "let them stay" like burning cars and committing felonies.

AJAAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA physically beaten by a jew banker. Muskbros on suicide watch.

Scott Bessent is a member of the Huguenot Church, as were his French Huguenot ancestors. He's a 6' 4.5" homo who lived in a historic pink mansion with his look-a-like husband and their two unfortunate female children who were purchased via surrogacy. Not a kike, but a high powered (and perhaps hard hitting) faggot who made a lot of money working in finance.

 

[LikeAStone 2.0]

The funniest part about all of this, for everyone who isn’t aware, is Paramount is essentially in Compton.

They are having riots filled with white trannies, for Mexicans, in Compton.

My favorite is when they use dumpsters on wheels as the means to block someone as if other people can't just push it away the same way. I've also seen some funny clips while using them.

Nothing ever happens?

I hear that half the people are just rednecks that hate California taking advantage of the opportunity.

Watch the anti-ICE crowd and their supporters rally around Pope Leo XIV as he'll be having a video appearance at Rate Field on the same day as President Trump's military parade.

To be brief, California taxpayers affected by this could potentially receive an IRS notice that they underpaid their Federal Tax obligation for 2025 and they would be on the hook to pay the difference with penalties and interest possibly tacked on. And we all know how unhappy taxpayers get when they expect a refund and instead get told they have a balance due. Whether the anger is directed at Newsom for his boneheaded move or if its deflected to Trump as Orange Man Bad would remain to be seen.

I think if its CLEAR, INTENTIONAL acting on NEWSOMS part, and especially the govt, they could instead just seize from him / govt the amount owed. Seize his home, his cars, govt buildings, state workers (who were in on it) houses, cars, basically just seize and auction off property of ANYONE directly connected with it. This is common enough solution and it wouldn't needlessly fuck over residents. You could also do the same with people assaulting federal forces, just seize and seize and sieze, auction it, and make the money back

This also comes into how they handle doing it, just not giving money, just not forwarding it? new tax forms? I suspect the money would still be recorded, but if hes still COLLECTING federal taxes and just pocketing it, thats pretty much treason and I think could potentially even get the death penalty paired with fighting federal forces, since its theft of federal property AND using it as a weapon.

I think trump is savvy enough to not piss off the common man needlessly, but anyone who works in govt right now and would be pushed into doing ANYTHING related to fucking with the tax code, I would UNIRONICALLY quit your job immediately if it looks like thats really going to happen and work at jack in the box. You will rupture savings but its better than everything you own being seized

Spoiler: Take your pick for OST

Theres actually way more remixes out there, but you get my point.

It's Tax FREE

Angry gasmask noises intensify.

From the footage I've seen, almost everyone is a spic.

I want them to send in the 1st Marines like they did in '92.

It's like they saw video games where the signal for "player don't go here" is a waist-high obstacle like a shopping cart or a bit of rubble that a real person could easily climb over or push out of the way but it's just taller than the player is allowed to jump/has an invisible wall in front of it/isn't a physics object, and they think that's real life.
