A mysterious truck arrived in downtown Los Angeles and began unloading boxes of Face Shields directly into the hands of waiting protestors.
Although this post was before the person behind this wasidentified, .it's no surprise who is behind this or why. It definitely shows that there's a lot happenings behind the scenes to keep these protests going.

Still, I can't help wondering if we will get a Snack Van B-plot like we did in 2020.

They have been kettled in by LAPD.
I guess the protestors missed the memo the other day about being water to avoid kettling. Better for us to observe, though. :popcorn:

This isn't about Right vs. Left anymore. This is about sane, normal, well-adjusted citizens vs. anarcho-tyrant terrorist pedophile goonclown plunderers who consider America to be nothing but the world's communal fleshlight.
Even normies I know who are lukewarm at best about Trump disapprove of the violent protesting going on and scoff at Newsome's and Bass' insistence these protests are totes peaceful.

Jesus, shooting fireworks at people is a bitch move. The cops weren't even doing anything, and people in cars just want to get home.
Anti-ICE protesters attempt to stop ICE van from leaving Federal Plaza building in NYC as police push back on barricades.
These protestors are behaving like animals acting solely on impulse with no sort of filter or discipline when it comes to their behavior.

Owner is Hispanic himself.
In b4 protestors say he's not Hispanic enough because he owns a business.

On a similar note, I was on mobile earlier today and some troll chided a Californian for not making a social media post over the past few days about the happenings and including "Fuck ICE." Really sucks that nobody is allowed to have a differing opinion or keep it to themselves in these parts of the country -- all by people who talk about diversity, respect, tolerance, etc. - at least until it involves anyone they dislike on whatever whim.

Fetterman the weathervane weighs in. If he's saying this the more 'reasonable' democrats (I know, big :optimistic:) understand that this is an optical disaster for them. That's already a huge shift from mainstream democrats in 2020 openly hocking bail funds.
I have no idea if they were legit warnings or done for show, but some Democrats folks were making posts discouraging violent protests because it would validate everything Trump was saying and doing to that point. Of course the protestors did what they thought was the best thing in response: they decupled down on the violence and illegal behavior.

Maybe I'm misreading the room, but some of the old-time Dems seem to realize the party is at a crossroads and these violent protests are apt to have the opposite impact they did in 2020 if they remain fresh in the minds of independent or undecided voters when midterm elections at all levels take place.

Lmao. Not even chest seals. They're relying on FF/EMS to save the patient and just play pretend LARP medic for hurt feelings and scrapes, and be mobile enough run away when the cops come.
I think it was @HTTP Error 404 (if not, apologies to whomever it was) who said that protestors with medic insignia are actually coordinating the violent activity in some form under the guise of being there to render medical aid as needed. With that in mind, it makes sense their role as "medic" is more of a LARP than a genuine desire to provide medical attention. It makes me think back to the Rittenhouse protests where the so-called medics were ill-equipped for anything beyond a scrape - epsecially after Kyle shot his would-be assailants.
 
Mexican Army
Not to be pedantic, but the Mexican army is pretty garbage. They are fighting the cartels but the vast majority of the heavy lifting has been done by the Mexican Marine Corps, who are actually pretty high quality and reliable. Surprising nobody, the bulk of the Marines have been trained by the United States.
 
While we are worrying about LA the Chinese are infiltrating.

I would be none to surprised to find out they are funding this shit.

Trump needs to totally divest the US from China and threaten them with total annihilation if they move another boat.

Drop a few million gallons of Round Up on them for all I care but do something about the fucking country trying to poison us.
 
They don't speak Latin. They don't come from Italia. They don't have any connection to Alba Longa, Latium, Rome, or the Latin tribes... So Why Are They Called Latinas? It's never made sense to me. Hispanics makes sense because those doing all the raping and conquering of Meshica came from Spain and Portugal, i.e. Hispania... so their muttish spawn can at least be called Hispanic.
Spain and other Roman Catholic countries had a Latin culture when they conquered the New World. Also, the same king who ruled Spain when it conquered the New World was also king of Italy, Germany, the Netherlands, and had the title of Holy Roman Emperor. So in a sense, it wasn't Spain that conquered the New World, but the Roman Empire.

Also, Latin was spoken quite often in these lands, considering that it was the language of worship at the time. Vernacular in Catholic Church Liturgy was a big no-no until the 1970s. So when the Spanish Empire was a thing, the Latin language and culture was prevalent. It was the English and the Dutch, who were Protestant, who tried to snuff out the Latin culture because they thought anything that reeked of Rome was the enemy.
 
Have protests in other cities escalated beyond rallies and bullhorns yet?
Yeah. Quite a few clips comig in of police and rioter clashes in chicago and New York.

A few pages back antifa attacking a Federal building in Seattle and being shot back at by Feds with dispersal rounds
 
There’s this amazing thing called fanfiction.
Fanfiction, by definition, is noncanonical. What are you, retarded?
Western culture for MOST people is marvel movies you stupid dolt.
Oh, well I guess you are.
I am not defending Marvel (or current) Star Wars-I am explaining to you human anthropology. People see cultural and political conflict through a narrative lens. Through the lens of shared stories and mythmemes. This can be the Bible, the Iliad, Arthurian Legend, or any other source.

And the dominant and most meaningful narratives today are the ones listed.
This is my entire contention. We're both looking at rabid animals destroying the country right now, reveling in the perpetual revolution because they grew up attuning their moral compass to disney products. You're saying this is actually totally natural and in fact we should lean into it even harder. I'm saying we should get our society off of these fake astroturfed narratives that are poisoning us and go back to producing true and honest culture again.

A reminder that Grosskreutz was a "medic" that was hiding a pistol and tried get the drop on Kyle while fake surrendering.

They’re called that because it’s what we felt like calling them. Maybe it was predictive of conquest; like “here, hold my euro-descended dick” but in the form of a name.

Happens all the time. Navajos call themselves “Diné,”Iroquois call themselves “Haudenosaunee,” etc etc
 
I keep on trying to explain this, and yet I feel like I’m not getting anywhere
I don't have it handy, but there's a 4chan screenshot out there explaining this pretty well.
Basically, one of the things TPTB learned from programs like MKULTRA is that human brains suck at telling fiction from reality.
If a monkey sees another monkey get a banana for doing a trick on the TV screen, monkey thinks he will get banana for doing the same thing. Similarly, if human sees hero in Marvel film behave a certain way, they expect they will receive the same (or similar) rewards for doing the same things. Scale that up across thousands of films and other media and you can program certain "truths" into a population that don't actually have any real world equivalent.

It's pretty evil when you think about it, because like you pointed out, old stories usually serve to help teach lessons on behavior and expectations within a society.

I know it's asking a lot but can you please stop being such a fucking embarrassment to our country? Like holy shit, "LAWS AREN'T MORALS BECAUSE SLAVERY AND DA HOLOKAUST" yeah bro we're all adults here we get it. You could have easily answered your question with a google search instead of being retarded and virtue signaling on the goddamned kiwifarms.

Every country but Canada, where you can just openly claim you violated your visa and paid to get a fake job on national TV and not be deported because nobody ever gets deported.

What guys like Wurmple said is very true: These people are your enemies and they see themselves as such. Do not give them mercy, they have none for you. The moral high ground is how you end up displaced and powerless, look no further than Canada for proof of that.
What are you talking about? I'm not virtue signalling anything. I wanted to verify from actual Americans about the more nuanced distinctions of how your system works. Logically I figured there is no way there are 0 legal channels for Mexicans.

The meme had validity but I said I didn't think it applies to this situation. I mean yes laws may not reflect morals but I think most can see that deporting people isn't immoral. I don't know how American laws can improve but it is a problem that is universal with people being illegal.

We are too soft in Canada and I don't agree with it. Too many slutty South America chicks give birth here and get their kids Canadian citizen and then they get to be bums. It's disgusting. I had a Couch Surfing years ago who I found out had a kid in Vancouver after my place. She must have been 3 months pregnant when she stayed at my place. These people are cheaters and sicken me. My family were immigrants and they all did it legally.

We have a common enemy and that are illegals.
 
lol so far the nasty girls and marines just guarding federal buidings, in Newsom and Mayor butt to ass I mean ass who put in the curfew, and only cali cops enforcing it ..... lol some one got a night letter
It has to do with the law Trump is using for the deployment. He is not using the Insurrection Act, he invoked 10 USC § 12406, which basically is Insurrection Act lite. While the Insurrection Act allows the military to act as a police force in the United States, 12406 explicitly does not allow the military to enforce law, but does allow them to support law enforcement in the enforcement of law. This takes the form of stuff like logistics, protecting infrastructure, and advisory roles.
 
I’ve noticed today that there are more hybrid flags such as USA/MEX. Is that supposed to be better?
