    This is totally djt pitting GOP vs Democrats, and it’s much MUCH worse than burning the American flag.

    What do Texans do when someone trespasses on their property?

    They’re following an illegal order.

      I do not agree with Trump but the NG (so far) have not done anything crazy where they have been deployed. Sitting around twiddling their thumbs is hardly harming anyone. Most of them do not want to be involved in this nonsense.

      source
      • betanumerus@lemmy.ca ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        The NG has no business being in the public eye and confronting the police at their own job. This is like me popping up at your job in camo with a gun and watching you. Yeah no, not doing anything crazy though.

        They still traitors. They could have refused their illegal orders and opted not to. Especially after DJT’s whole speech about war against americans and the enemy at home.

    A donut and a slice of pizza a day, keep the bad guys away…

      To be fair, the brisket there is really good. Pretty sure you can still make out BBQ sauce stains on the corners of his mouth.

      Which bait do you think will work better for keeping them at bay, a donut, a twinkie or a burger?

      • RisingSwell@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        Burgers are bigger, the other two are one or two bites. Burger is at least 3.

    Are they using the hydraulic tray on the back of the truck to ‘lower their guard’?

    I just can’t see them getting down any other way.

    source
    • BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      They used to have them hop out, but the loss to twisted ankles and blown out knees was about 20%, so liftgates were added, rather than fitness standards.

      source
      • Aljernon@lemmy.today ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        I’ve heard a heard a number of very fit veterans bemoan that jumping out of the back of the truck looks cool in your 20s but you’re body already hurts in your 30s

      I don’t have any stats but I’d bet that’s pretty close to correct.

      Legitimately could be underestimating it, honestly… after all, everything is bigger in Texas!

    Do we have verification of this photo? Also, I thought digi-cam fatigues were out nowadays since they’re less effective than old-school camouflage.

    Besides which, national guard don’t usually get to choose their deployment. They’re in Chicago, I assume, to pick up litter and guard federal buildings at the pleasure of their civilian commanders (up to the limits of what they’re legally allowed to do). They’re contemptable once they follow illegal orders and engage in state violence.
