It largely is. Local government is just a puppet regime to keep the locals from chimping that they don't get a civic government like other cities.

You really have no idea how much this stings. How hard shit like "history" and "tradition" get beaten into your numb fucking skull in boot camp. How here I am damn near 20 years later and can still prattle off shit about Alfred A. Cunngingham, Opha Mae Johnson, Dan Daly, Smedley Butler (read War is a Racket), John Basilone, and so much other shit; I even know who Auldey Murphy (The Army's answer to Chesty Puller) is and that's just because I went the extra mile to learn shit. That a huge part of the Marine Corps comes from the South (I don't, but many do) and they're all about "My family's fought in every war since [X-War]" and will get into pissing contests about who has a better pedigree. And now this, it's fucking gone, because it's hatred or whatever. Yeah okay, enjoy all the fucking gang-bangers and Cartel sleeper agents you still fucking bring in. You fucking pieces of shit.
Edit: And just for clarification, just because you're out of boot camp, you're not allowed to forget it. That shit is considered "Marine Corps Knowledge," meaning it can come up on a Basic Skills Test (a no-shit fill in the multiple-choice bubble test) or can be asked by the inspector during any inspection. Dude can be measuring your ribbons and ask some shit like "In what battles did Dan Daly get one of his Medals of Honor?" And you better fucking know, because if you don't, it's a hit, yeah it's a"uniform inspection" but you can still fail for not knowing that shit.

EOF did teach warning shots depending on where you were, it may have changed since then. The problem is that step 2 and 3 of Escalation of Force still includes charging and pointing your weapon at and physically shoving or laying hands on idiots, I don't think civilians would like that at all. Anyhow there is always a disconnect between what is taught in class and what is really done.

Though I wouldnt be shocked if Trump jr runs right afterwards
They've pretty much thrown everything they can at this, if it fails, it fails and their big ally China is seeing pushback on all fronts too
You might be disappointed that the business owners whose lives have been destroyed by looters arent getting much coverage now but that shit is going to stay with the community for years

Someone came at me with this line of faggotry about Chick Fil-A back in November irl, IIRC. We had a whole argument about this and it made me miss my first stop at the light rail.
Who the fuck cares about what the fuck a company supports whether left or right? If the product is good, you imbibe in it. If isn't good, you don't. Why does it matter what they support and what the fuck they do, lol?

I know this is way late, but the supposed Sherif @navyvetbolt81, is a complete fake.
From someone far more autistic than I am:
Remember this post from /r/NextFuckingLevel a couple days back? I saw it and was immediately suspicious. What department lets an officer who quits keep their radio, let alone uses a cheap holster like that with zero retention? So, I went to Twitter and looked for the post.
I found it here: https://twitter.com/navyvetbolt81/status/1267601410599923720
Right away there's issues; that vest is suspect, the holster completely lacks retention, etc. But, NBD, I forgot about it until a couple days later when this next tweet came across my timeline:
https://twitter.com/navyvetbolt81/status/1268363844491137024
This raised a lot of red flags for me.
Here we have a better look at his "kit" - I'm not a cop, but I am a recreational shooter and after 30 years of experience cheap garbage stands out. There's no way a legit cop is using this stuff.
For people who aren't familiar with gear, a Chinese knockoff helmet looks very similar to one from a US vendor. Genuine helmets used by US departments aren't going to be made in China because they won't meet NIJ standards for ballistic protection. LARPers will buy stuff that looks close because it's "jUst As gOoD" and most people won't recognize it's fake. See how the velcro on the top is overlapping? The velcro tab on the ear protection? The complete & utter lack of wear on the helmet from it rolling around in the trunk of a squad car for years? Fake. You can find these all day on Alibaba here:
https://www.made-in-china.com/products-search/hot-china-products/Mich_Helmet.html
So I started looking over the rest of the image. It's like one of those pictures where the longer you look, the worse it gets.
Look at these vests. They look practically new. Anyone who's used velcro for any length of time knows that after a couple washes it starts wearing. Nylon vests like that collect dirt, the velcro pills, the thin nylon will curl, etc. I recognized the logo on the under vest on the right, GH Armor, who is owned by Safariland group. That vest isn't currently offered: https://www.gharmorsystems.com/imag...https://safariland.amplifi.io/share/2fRwhBNsg
Any cop on patrol isn't going to have gear that clean, and anyone wearing an undervest like that on day to day patrolling is going to show signs of wear - sweat stains, pilling on the velcro, the plastic velcro tabs will curl up. You have to wash those carriers regularly or else they start to stink, yet for being several years old that looks fresh out of the package.
Next up I looked at the duty belt pictured. Another giant red flag - cops have a ton of equipment to haul around and most of it goes on their beltline.
This duty belt is practically bare.
Unlike this one with a visible retention holster with multiple means of retention, tourniquet, dual magazine holder, taser holster
Or these. See those double snap things at the back of the cop on the left? Those are belt keepers. Duty belts are heavy with all that crap on them and the keepers help hold your outer belt to your pants belt to keep everything from rotating around and falling off. Notice also the wear on the gear.
Another poster pointed out that the weapon light on his glock was off Alibaba
Weaponlight in question
It's a match!
Cops will usually use a duty grade light like the X300 from SureFire, or
A Streamlight TLR Cops don't use $17 weaponlights, because they like being able to see and not have it break when you touch it.
His bargain basement rifle with more airsoft level optics - a scope / laser combo, along with a QVC level "tactical" light mounted on his foregrip incorrectly.
His supposed duty rifle. I don't know why he offered this as some sort of proof; no department is going to let you keep your organization owned rifle if you quit; and if it's his, why would this be considered proof of anything? Millions of people own AR 15s. This is an example of one that was so hated & of poor quality that Smith & Wesson pulled it from the market fairly quickly.
A factory promo image for the M&P 15 Sport. They are identical rifles, except the OP has taken off the stock rear sight. This rifle was so cheap & cut so many corners that it lacked a forward assist and even a dust cover for the ejection port.
A Colt LE6920, the civilian version of a military M4 carbine (with no full auto). This rifle is literally double the cost & retailed at $1099. Note the dust cover and forward assist. Other features not obvious: a quality barrel & fire control group. Metal lined handguards. Various internal features like MPI tested bolt & more.
The tactical flashlight visible is mounted in the wrong place. You want that flashlight as far forward as possible, because the barrel is going to obstruct your light source and create blind spots. This guy has it mounted to the rear, because he's had no training and bought sub par equipment.
Examples. Notice how these lights are mounted as close to the muzzle as possible. These are SureFire Scout Lights, used by professionals because they are combat proven.
His holster. This is absolute garbage. I think it's this Condor holster: https://www.amazon.com/CONDOR-Tornado-Tactical-Leg-Holster/dp/B0086UC5A4
Thumb break only. Not fitted to the weapon. No retention against gun grabs. This is something that looks cool if you have no idea how holsters work & have never worn one in your life. In reality, this is going to flop everywhere during a foot chase and if you forget to snap the thumb break, your pistol will fall out. It's "designed" to fit almost any gun on the market because it's for pretend.
One of my holsters. Notice the shield towards the front which helps prevent people from defeating the internal release. Notice the forward rotating shroud that helps retain the pistol if someone yanks on it.
Another of my holsters. Remember that internal release I mentioned? This is what it looks like. You have to press that button to get the pistol out, after you've rotated the hood foward
Remember the duty belt I shared earlier? Notice the same features on the holster he's using. Notice how they are absent on the holster posted by the guy lying for clout. Cops don't like holsters without active retention because bad guys sometimes resist arrest and grab for their guns. When your life is at stake, you don't want to make it easy for a criminal to kill you. These are lessons learned in blood.
By this point, other people are questioning his claims. So now he has to expand on his lies. He said he had to buy all of his equipment. Cool. The problem is that agencies have standards of equipment you can buy, in order to avoid liability in lawsuits.
And you definitely aren't attending an academy with alibaba gear and that he's missing a lot of stuff. He's actively watching each reply and quote tweets me.
No explanation, just insults. One small (big) problem:
He tweeted a month ago that he'd been a cop for 40 years. Last I checked 2020 - 1990 = 30 years, not 40. And if he was in the academy in the "90s" it's even less than that. And this isn't the 50s, there's no POST certified agency that's going to let you be a cop for 10 years before you finally go to the academy.
Like most liars, he can't help himself. Someone comments on his rifle setup and he's talking about how he modded the AR with a new barrel because in a "real firefight" the bullets will "stick"
wat
It takes several hundred of rounds fired at full auto for a barrel to fail. The rifle will literally be too hot to hold before this happens, especially a civilian semi-auto one. It stretches belief that a guy with a $500 rifle is going to pay $200 + gunsmithing to swap out the barrel, and leave a garbage scope on it.
Oooooh it gettin' good now. So now he's claiming that this rifle isn't "just semi auto" but has been converted. For those who aren't aware, machineguns have been heavily regulated in the United States since 1934. They are tightly controlled items by the military & law enforcement agencies. New machineguns were banned from manufacture & sale to civilians in 1986 under the Hughes Amendment: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firearm_Owners_Protection_Act#Ban_on_new_automatic_firearms
So there's a few choices here:
1. His department let him keep one of their agency M16s... which happens to be made from a bottom of the barrel M&P 15 Sport. The same agency that made him buy all his equipment because he couldn't afford it. Oh, and you can't transfer post 86 machineguns to civilian hands. DOUBT.
2. He's committed a federal felony by manufacturing a post 86 machinegun without ATF approval. DOUBT, as there's no visible hole on his rifle for an auto sear.
3. He has a registered Drop In Auto Sear or a Lightning Link made prior to 1986. Given the absolute poverty status of his gear, DOUBT
4. He's lying. At this point there's lots of people piling on him.
Someone asks why he went with an AR instead of an AK. "I just went with what I could afford"
Why? Because it's cheaper to mod. So why did he mod it?
This is absolute bullshit, said by someone who has no idea how firearms operate. This is almost Star Trek level of technobabble. For those keeping track, he's saying he modded it to select fire as well, which as mentioned, is a felony.
As people calling him out start getting retweets, someone points out that his radio looks like more Alibaba garbage. As per usual he insults the person instead of proving them wrong. At this point, I've seen enough. When the tweet in question was posted, it had 9.4k likes
After it made Reddit's front page, it now has 607k. This guy lied to you all and is damaging the cause being protested right now with this level of fraud, because it lets people dismiss valid criticism.
More lies are coming out
LMAO so his department is so small that he has to buy his own equipment, but they are also housing prisoners? LIES
TL;DR: The "Officer" in question a LARP. And like all LARPers, he just gets faggier when you call him out on his bullshit.

Amen.
Used to be that the Confederate Flag was seen as merely tacky Southern kitsch and was only a bad flag when used by KKK or White Nationalists.
Usually, if you saw a character with a Confederate Flag in a TV show or movie from before the 2010's, it was just visual shorthand that they were a Southerner or a redneck, no different than a a dyed mohawk and Union Jack being shorthand for a punk rocker or dark tracksuits and slick-back hair for a mobster.
A lot of tourist locations and gift shops in the South would often include the Confederate Flag on souvenirs since it was iconic Southern kitsch, no different than tourist traps in the Western US including cowboy imagery on their souvenirs.
Even as recently as the mid-late 2000's, it was at most seen as trashy and redneck if Joe Nobody was displaying it, and most of the controversies had more to do with whether or not it was okay to fly it on government buildings since traditionally only the American flag and the state flag are seen as acceptable across the board.
Before 2013 and especially before Dylann Roof shot up a black church in South Carolina, the Confederate Flag was mainly viewed in the same way as plastic flamingos and Elvis paintings are for the most part, and it was more like the Iron Cross or the Gadsen Flag where it was only bad if you used it in a specific context.
Now it's seen as on par with the literal goddamn Swastika, if not more reviled than it.
As a lifelong Civil War history sperg who grew up in a former Confederate state but also is from a family that fought for the Union at the time, it's all so jarring to see the stance change all so rapidly.

I love how the same people that fully support flying the ANTIFA flag, which at this point represents domestic terrorism, and fully support flying a defaced American flag lose their shit at the mere sight of the Confederate flag.
More of that "Rules for thee, but not for me" bit I guess.

Commies are nothing without the backing of very powerful people in the US and beyond. This has nothing to do with BLM or anacho-socialism. This is literally a gay glownigger op. Our children will be discussing the recently declassified dox regarding the attempt to overthrow a legitimately elected President on the equivalent of KF or 4chong and think "Maybe grandpa wasn't senile after all".
No it's not the end times. But. You can see the DOJ closing the walls in on Obama and Hillary. Gov Deblasios daughter was found to be part of an Antifa cell. Another Governors daughter was found to be giving Antifa info, possible state level info. We have an active terrorist insurgency inside the United States, right now. No one will publicly say that, but thats what the evidence we have points to.

Speaking as someone who absolutely hates all this lefty bullshit, LGR having that opinion doesn't matter unless he puts them into his videos. His take on BLM is also pretty mild and I wouldn't be surprised if his sister dying from cancer drove him to the left because of the cost of medical care. It's unrealistic to want your content creators to hold the same opinion as you and their opinions don't really matter as long as they don't affect their content.

That's huge to me. When the Hillary thing came out, that raised a huge red flag with me. Like "Huh, that timing is very convenient" and there is more to the story than even that.

So anonymous polls show the real thoughts of people. Who would have thought?
Here is a little hoping that the election will show all the big middle finger. Then again who knows what will happen until then since it's 5 months ahead

Where are these mass shooters when you need them? If instead of shooting up a school or church, they could shoot commies and ANTIFA and be lauded as heroes. Shit, I'd petition naming streets after them.

Read Days of Rage for some perspective. People forget that bombings on US soil were literally a daily occurrence for a while in the 1970s. Antifa's vendetta against garbage cans and dumpsters is pathetic by comparison.
That doesn't mean they should be ignored, and I hope Trump gets the FBI to snuff them out. But they're getting curb-stomped by Proud Boys and NBA players, and are now being actively identified to cops by BLM soy boys desperate to maintain the "peaceful protest" fiction. They aren't an existential threat.
