    This is starting to look disturbingly like Germany in the 1930s.

    Indeed it does. And in the US, “Door to Door” operations will probably end up in door-to-door shootings. Both by and of agents - I can understand if someone in a “stand your ground” state shoots some masked idiots who don’t want to identify themselves when breaking in…

      Yep, they’ll absolutely turn on the rest of us once this is done.

      But voting is difficult. I might lose my job and shit. It’s on a weekday. It’s hard. I don’t have to. It doesn’t make a difference anyway. Piss and moan.

        We won’t make it to the next election. That’s the point. Even if we do and he loses, he’ll say it was rigged and ignore it and by then there won’t be enough people left to fight back.

        If there actually is an election, by all means vote, but don’t rely on democracy as the only option you have.

          I’m not American and no. Thanks for the reminder on that.

          That in fact makes it worse because it makes voting even easier.

    People are missing the point that trump wants to provoke a violent response, so he can justify imposing martial law and cancelling the elections.

    He’s only going to keep pushing harder until he gets it.

      Which is why we should just have a violent response now. If we don’t we’re just complying in advance. This compliance is why people are in Concentration Camps and Mrs. Good lost her life. We should have violently opposed them from the start. and every day we delay more people are being killed, raped, and enslaved.

        Exactly. They are looking for an excuse for what they are going to do anyway. There’s no incentive for compliance.

        If they are really going to go door to door, there is no possible way they they will all survive. It’s impossible. They are fodder. And honestly, good.

      Violent or not violent they’ll continue to stomp on peoples rights. I’d rather not take it up the ass peacefully once they come to my door.

      If they declare Martial law, I’m comfortable dying at this point because I cannot be abused anymore by this government and it’s lack of usefulness for its people.

    My husband and I made peace that if these goons try to come to our door, we’re both dead and maybe taking one of them with us.

    Especially if they try to break in.

    Reminder for Nazi fascist scum: liberals own guns. A lot of libs are gun fanatics and they know how to use them a lot better.

        My dad has been liberal ever since I could remember. I grew up on over 13 acres with a backstop for shooting. People are typically surprised when they find out I have firearms and am a good shot. I’ve been encouraging those around me to start training and getting familiar with firearms.

      And those guns are registered, so they’ll just target gun owners who vote blue first, especially recent purchasers.

      We need more than guns. We needs something everyone has access to that they aren’t tracking ownership of. Something people can defend themselves with that ICE won’t know beforehand who has one or not.

      door to door means violent confrontation is not on the streets, in public, but in private where there will be less witnesses. Easier to control the narrative without dozens of cell phone videos from every possible angle.

        I know I sounded glib, but I guess what I meant is that door to door means predictable. Predictable means an advantage to anyone looking to interdict.

    Gonna be lots of dead door busters, then. Home invasion is not something many people will put up with if they don’t have to
