Very true.

It won't matter to most Americans.

I am tired of them telling protestors to “play nice. No violence. Don’t give them a reason to escalate”. Bullshit. I’m not advocating violence, but pointing out those playing by the rules are getting tear gas and rubber bullets. I’d love a little sabotage.

Terrorism, in its broadest sense, involves the use or threat of violence to instill fear and coerce a civilian population or government to achieve political or ideological goals.

trump is guilty of terrorism! His actions and those of ICE are terrorism!!!

These encounter need to be videotaped and shared to counter their lies.

This is the militarization of domestic police happening before our eyes, on the orders of the lawless convicted felon, leader and instigator of the Jan 6 insurrection. Using masked individuals with military gear to go after non-criminal migrants and protestors, as if attacking terrorists. June 14th

And Home Depot? Any laws broken?

lacentrist.bsky.social•22 hours ago

This is exactly what happened. The sheriff didn’t help either. This is a show of force against all of us and not only migrants. Landing a Blackhawk and unloading weapons for all to see is to intimidate and create fear.

rebekahwriter.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Detaining a handful of day laborers is not a benefit to anyone. It doesn’t improve health and safety, it doesn’t promote law and order, it doesn’t increase prosperity. It’s a racist act to fulfill a sick lust for dominance by a twisted political movement.

The protestors have the moral high ground.

💯💯 yesterday, we went to get brunch before this all went down and the restaurant owner had several people no show. That’s the impact this is having on small businesses. People are afraid, even if here legally. It’s a show of force, full stop.

It's so sad, I know someone who owns dairy farms. They use all migrant labor. How will they milk the cows? They have thousands. It's going to devastate the dairy farms, chicken farms. Inflation is going to go thru the roof.

lacentrist.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Yes, this is exactly right. Who will pick the crops? Work jobs that many no longer want. Did everyone forget that the majority of Americans are immigrants? It’s going to impact the food industry, the construction industry and the restaurant and hospitality industries. 😔

flygirltess.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Exactly, and they contribute so much to the economy. It's really bad.

Thought they were going to arrest ‘dangerous’ criminals. They are just chickenshit dress up boys and girls hiding behind bandanas.

The order is wrong here. The tear gas was fired when everyone was still in their cars, forced to stop. The protests started after the initial gassing.

CNN's headlines purposely painted the protesters as the ones escalating and the reason the Guard was called in. They're as bad as FAUX. Never once have they questioned the legality of such an action. This could have been another Tiananmen Square.
