Idk, I’m several drinks in atm, but you’d make big money picking cherries.

*terrorists as labeled by the fucking mayor… a terrorist because they got warrants, trash, and a bullhorn being a public nuisance.

Warrants for making terroristic threats, illegal possession of firearms, parole violations, contempt of court

Terrorists armed with a… gas generator (commence pearl clutching)

And automatic weapons. You used the … to erase the automatic weapons part.

-what the actual fucking fuck did the Keystone Kops think would happen if they dropped explosives on the gas generator in hopes of “taking out the “rooftop bunker”” which was most likely the goddamned rooftop access. They had to know. And if the didn’t, they were criminally stupid.

Wow, not knowing where people store their generators is the bar for criminal stupidity? I have a different bar

-and: 2A rights for everyone! “oh, only WASPy, good, christian tightey-whitey men, sorry - not you… When any minority holds a gun they’re obviously criminals.” and yes, I know there were warrants and shootouts in this case. But justice wasn’t served.

Ah yes, story we hear every week outta murica, them white folks, shooting their automatic assault rifles at the cops and getting away with it

Seriously, if you start a business picking cherries, I’d like to invest, I haven’t seen anyone so skilled since 2020

  Drink less than I do then I am, please! See above for why they weren’t just people vibing at home while the cops decided they were criminals for existing, fuckheads had automatic weapons and were happy to use them
  
  B) Not sure what a generator has to do with Lclandestine munitions, or what those are
  
  What the fuck even? Go to bed bud

I’m not saying it’s the same but the Bundy standoff comes to mind as a recent example where a buncha good ol’ white boys barricaded themselves in a compound, and they weren’t bombed. They didn’t fire upon cops but they did imply that they were ready to if they were raided.

  Everybody is in agreement that the cops grossly mishandled the situation on May 13th 1985, and it serves as a great argument for the demilitarization of police in the USA. The problem is some people in this forum want us to think this was a random unprompted massacre of ordinary people, which is pretty far off the mark.
