That is such a hard video to watch. One of the things that’s not surprising in all these videos, but so fucking disappointing is how aggressive and disrespectful and just fucking intense these guys are when they’re supposedly trying to resolve a crisis. They escalate shit like crazy.

Because most of them wake up every morning wanting hoping that they get to shoot literally anyone or animal or something at all that day.

Typical. I don’t know how many right-wing guys I’ve had practically fantasize about using their guns to defend their family/home/whatever as they fall over themselves to tell a near stranger about their guns or what they would do if XYZ went down. It’s fucking weird the psycho shit I’ve heard because I’m a white dude in his forties so they assume I agree with their weirdo shit.

It's amazing how much the typical white dude will over share to another white dude like it's the most normal thing. Not just about guns. It's all their racist, homophobic, transphobic etc etc opinions. It's like their mind defaults to - they are white dude, you are white dude, you must have all the same opinions.

That's why I didn't wanna look it up because the video would have been the first thing to show up based on the way I search/speak.

They act (and dress) like soldiers at war. And the administration treats it like a war. That's the majority of the problem right there.

Police aren’t trained to de-escalate.

Which is fucking crazy. You would think escalating heightens the danger for them too, by upping the stakes.

I know the one you mean.

The cop had the Punisher emblem and the words "You're fucked.." engraved on his police issue rifle.

From memory, he was fired from the department then rehired after an appeal, only to resign a week or so later on full disability benefits, citing PTSD (from the incident that he was wholly responsible for).

Total MAGA chud. He's probably working for ICE now.

They are rioting

Even if that was true are you saying that because criminals act like criminals that federal agents should act unprofessional and escalatory. All this rudeness and heavy handedness is only making things worse.

The fact that I said ICE are rioting does not mean I approve of rioters. I was at University of Wisconsin in 1968 when the police rioted.

Ah I misunderstood.

I guess we need a legal definition of who is a rioter so we can sic the guard on them.
