I think they are fiercely ideological, yes.

They aren't here to fight gun violence.

They are here to scoop up the folks from the recent riots that they have identified through facial recognition software applied to faces found on surveillance videos

If you have a source on this, please site it because everything I've read says that they are coming here to do the same illegal things they are doing to the citizens of Portland.

Sure, it's cute and makes people feel good to point out other people's hypocrisy, but you're not a clown like America is. Nobody should be cheering this shit on. Enforcing the rule of law with secret police in unmarked cars? Get the fuck outta here with that apologist bullshit.

I’m seeing an emphasis on combatting gun violence in Kansas City under the name Operation Legend.

That is the name of this major metropolitan experiment.

You dont have a constitutional right to insurrection or wanton lawlessness.

This applies 100% to Trumpets. You all screamed about the constitution, institutions and norms until this president decided they were in his way.

Sure. That has nothing to do with my post though.

What about a constitutional right to Wonton Soup?

Well its dead. Whatever pretense that the US Constitution still applies is rapidly dwindling. The retard president doesn't care about it, or probably even understand it, but that's really the least of your worries. The state intelligence apparatus has been ignoring it for decades. Now you have millions of youths in the streets very unambiguously calling it the work of slaveowners and in need of abolition.

Ignoring and disposing of the second amendment has been a mainstream democrat policy point my entire life.

So on all sides I see people with nothing but contempt for the constitution, from Marxists like FF to the retard president. If were gonna do away with it we might as well use this opportunity to take out the trash and rid ourselves of these moron anarchists and communists.

That and a public get tough political act to shore up trump's base.

Its a stupid move by Trump because a true crackdown will make improve the numbers. Trump was best served by Chicago racking up a thousand homicides and pointing to it (accurately) as the future awaiting the rest of the America.

Step away from the mirror and solve your own problem

Exactly my point. The libs dont like the constitution? Fine, then it shouldn't apply to them anymore. Same goes for their contempt for police, they shouldn't have access to the cops.

Your point was that you don't know what the fuck you're talking about? Hard to disagree I guess.

FF will do anything to protect and apologize for his precious Marxists.

@FF's whack on America's nose

One of these days you'll learn what the word Marxist means, and then probably a long time after that moment you'll actually understand that you've always been a lot closer to that than I have been. You love authoritarians, you just like to quibble about the kind.

Are you sure that's what's happening? "Secret police"? Sounds like another hysterical narrative to me.

I'm pretty sure the average citizen would prefer his/her city not be burned to the ground by a lawless mob. And most welcome federal intervention if local officials are going to "stand down" while that occurs.

Not to mention the hypocrisy of letting your city be destroyed and then demanding federal tax dollars.

Then I suggest paying closer to attention to what is happening in Portland, or tell me a better description for jackbooted thugs(remember when you were worried about those? It was a few months ago) in unidentified gear snatching people off the streets.

It's a no-win for Trump. Either he's a heartless fiend who doesn't care about America's cities because they don't vote for him or he's an authoritarian maniac using secret police to attack citizens.

Not a no-win situation. If you want to bring in the National Guard, fine, do it. They have identifying uniforms, including name plates. Quit with this bullshit of pretending secret police are anything other than just that. I know you're not that uninformed so I'd rather you not play the obtuse card.

I don't support jackbooted government thugs. I also don't support lawless mobs. I've never sympathized with police until the last two months. Watch how professional the cops are in that Miracle Boyd video. Most guys on this board would likely have knocked her teeth out a lot sooner.

How do you expect me to take that sincerely considering your previous three posts here?

Dude, the media told us for three years that Trump was a Russian agent. Now that Steele has admiited he made it all up on behalf of Hillary Clinton, the same media is barely covering it. I'd be a little more skeptical before swallowing a narrative about "secret police".
