Happy birthday, US Army. Never forget the situation under which you were founded.

On the other hand, if someone who doesn't ID themselves as a police officer with a warrant tries to enter your house or abduct you, you're within your rights to shoot them in most of the country.
This kind of shit makes that outcome much more likely. Something for law enforcement to meditate upon.

This article actually has the list, if you want to check and see if your rep was one of them. Happy to see no one from Hawai'i there.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you with failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die,
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders Fields.
-Dr John Mccrae

Sadly, the poster isn't an official account. Their official socials have no such announcement.

"What if we threw a war and no one came?"
Organize... to stay home. A couple reporters or drones to get pictures of the National Guard just milling around. Maybe double it up with doing a general economic boycott. No purchasing except for bare necessities until they return to civilian life.

Somebody mentioned a “return to McCarthyism“ and this guy thought “Hey, that’s a great idea!”

I'm not a cop, but I don't think this is how they're trained to deal with even a small, peaceful crowd.
If they'd been violent, that crowd could have easily mopped the floor with those two before anyone could come to help.

Find a bicyclist and borrow their valve core remover. Pull the cores on the bus' tires.

That's nice, but what are you doing about the whole "blatant violation of Posse Comitatus" thing that's going on?

Kids asking "why" is science at it's primordial core. And we shouldn't discourage it, even as humans grow. Refusing to answer at an age appropriate level is irresponsible of those who have the knowledge. The difficulty is the astounding number of people who are questioning disingenuously.

Honestly, this is what it'll take. FIFA is just as corrupt as Trump and the Olympics aren't exactly squeaky clean either. If the EU and Commonwealth boycotted, it'd likely be enough to make even FIFA go "oh, really?"

Actually, make it "I<3fishes" and it'd be compliant with most medium-security password requirements!
I have to have a 16-character with caps, a symbol and a number, no dictionary words, and change it every 6 months. And you're not supposed to write it on the back of your badge... right...

Also, if we do get hit hard, FEMA might not be there for you. Got family in Arkansas or North Carolina? Ask them about that.
But hey, we're really showing those immigrants who's boss!

The Taylor Swift thing. I'm late to the party. Was her first contract just really shitty or something that she had to remake the albums and buy her own rights back or what?

At some point, one of them is going to get shot. Justifiably. Because if you're not identifying yourself and/or attempting to forcibly remove someone without a warrant, you're a kidnapper, not a cop. And employing force to prevent that is legal, pretty much everywhere.
