Those were, yeah.. but plenty of police cars were destroyed too. Just check out all the bricks landing on the police vehicles over by the underpass yesterday well before the Waymo cars

There's also video of a guy (with others in the background) tossing bricks at anything driving by, marked LEO or not. These aren't targeted "peaceful" protests.
That's a lot of pre-formed concrete just "hanging out" on an overpass waiting to be used. Totally spontaneous, hauling in that many 10-20 pound chunks was completely organic and in no way demonstrates a planned logistical effort.
You don't arrest the Asset until they are no longer useful.
We know the FBI paid for a dude in Denver to try and increase violence, even giving him money to buy fucking guns. Why would they follow up on bricks? The pallets of bricks that showed up the last few times pretty much let LEOs begin a tougher crackdown on protests. It'll happen the same way here.
Seems like Mobilize America INC is the same org that was used to coordinate those Protests back in April. Dont remember much happening with those other than ruining my ability to go downtown, but it's also now summer and people are "angrier".
Think it'll be a good weekend to go camping lol.
The real question- how long till we see an SVEST at one of these protests? Cause that’s happening.

I will say this. I would like for there to be some statute or administrative regulation that defines the tactical uniform colors of LEOs and those uniforms can't be what is worn by the US Army or Marine Corps...they can wear that Navy uniform though, don't care haha.
But seriously ICE and FBI with all the fun OPSCORE and CRYE gear is pretty stupid. Can they at least wear OD of Coyote? Then Local LEOs have to be Blue?

I think it'd be a VBIED before a vest. Can't get close enough with a vest, if the target is LEOs and not just "crowds".

I agree that an actual vest is unlikely, but there are a lot of backpacks in those videos that won’t get a second look.
If they are willing to escalate to an IED of any sort, they won't care about the "crowds".
Very good point.
Well yes and no, right? Like inherently anyone clacking off explosives doesn't care about crowds, but there is a difference between targets and desired outcomes.
An accelerationist anarchist might pop off a vest because doesn't matter who gets got; the chaos is "the point".
Some ANTIFA/similar person would likely want to target LEOs/Feds more directly, because the hope would be that it galvanizes the protestors left to take up arms. They'd be looking for a martyr moment, which is hard if your victims are mostly your own people.

Best case scenario is nothing happens and shit cools off before hand, but I'm doubtful it will.
The great thing about the GWOT is how many Americans were exposed to some of the worst tools a terrorist could use. Not just "Hey, you can make a belt and set it off" but "here's how you make a belt or vest or conceal explosives in a dump truck to look like ordinary rocks."
It's only a matter of time before a VBIED or Backpack IED is clacked off. Maybe not in this spasm of violence, but that day is coming.

I am not worried about the rank and file AWFL's and beta male soy boys.
I am worried bout the 10-15M people (mostly MAM's) that flooded the border 21-24 that want to capitalize on unrest for their ideological beliefs. We know that cells are operating nationwide, and that there is mass vulnerability for bad actors of all bends to be at these protests.

The fact that they wave foreign flags is just stupid, given they’re protesting being sent back there. However, I don’t like how ICE is handling this, and to be honest, I feel this isn’t really about law and order for Trump and company it’s about owning the libs and keeping things distracted. I also think this is going to hurt the GOP in the long run.
