National Protest and 'disband the cops' discussion (please review page 1)

So before I get toooo confused about who is oppressing who...

Where does the California National guard get its Soldiers?
Are they from Trumpistan?
Are they federal shock troops specially trained to oppress the rights of law abiding citizens?

OR

Are these troops drawn from the population of the Democratic Peoples Republic of California?
I'm just asking for a friend because I think it matters.
These are citizens of the United States AND the State of California.
They are also the people that serve in the CANG.

Their leaders are bound by oath to well and faithfully discharge their duties and like ALL US Servicemembers - they are expected to refuse to follow unlawful orders. That seems to create quite the pickle.
Are the California citizens that serve in the CANG trustworthy enough to know NOT to abuse their office - not to violate human rights - not to carry out unlawful orders - not to needlessly cause harm to those that are LITERALLY their fucking neighbors?
Keep in mind - these California citizens serving in the CANG are by all logical reasoning statistically more likely to support folks like Bass, Newsome, Harris, Pelosi, Waters, and even Schiff because it is California citizens (like the ones in the CANG) that vote for these people.
It would seem like everyone wants to be in the CANG until it's time to do CANG shit.

OR

Is it possible that one could say the following event took place in an alternate universe - is it even possible that this could happen in OUR universe...
"Hey Bob - stop using that hammer to break up those cinder blocks in that pallet that miraculously showed up near the protest! Stop throwing those hunks of concrete at innocent people, cars, cops, shop windows, and government officials and go get your OCPs on because we've been called up to do some CANG shit !!!
-We need to go make people stop breaking up the cinder blocks from all of those of those pallets that miraculously showed up near the protest. We also need to tell them to stop throwing those hunks of concrete at innocent people, cars, cops, shop windows, and government officials and ESPECIALLY make sure that you let them know that WE were just on their side, throwing those hunks of concrete at innocent people, cars, cops, shop windows, and government officials.

So -in conclusion:
Either the entire CANG and all of their leaders are fully aware that there is NOTHING "illegal" about what is going on and they are well and faithfully discharging their duty to uphold and defend the Constitution while the entire USA is being gaslit by the usual band of self righteous, virtue signaling, leftist, activist, bullshit spewing democrat wing of the communist party and they are just doing what needs to be done while the usual band of self righteous, virtue signaling, leftist, activist, bullshit spewing democrat wing of the communist party that THEY elected continue to gaslight the entire USA

OR

The CANG is just full of shit because they swore an oath to Newsome and should be refusing to follow the unlawful orders of the Orangeman - because it can't be both.

...again, just asking for a friend.

Brother, that may be your best post ever. You’ve peaked.
 
Anything done in the name of resistance will be absolved.

Disgusting.


ETA- No, I don’t know the motivations of the driver. Yes, I know it was folks protesting the thing I agree with. I don’t condone this action in any way- from whatever ‘side’. Realized some folks can’t have two ideas in their heads at once so I had to clarify with this edit.
Honestly, I don’t have a problem with this.
 
Dude, this is fucking tame lol. An old guy sharing boomer-take political cartoons?
You can find better stuff to get spun up about.

I mean I could give you Swalwell from today if you need it. But you discounting a sitting Senator comparing the Army birthday to Tiananmen square as a boomer take is also a problem.

I don’t know that that generalization is a fair statement. Plenty of “out there” shit from folks identifying as Republicans too.

How many of them are in the Senate though? Even in the House Boebert and MGT aren't out there doing things like that.
 
Re: Vance Boelter and the killings in Minnesota.

Here are a few more details related to timing and questions that may not be making it nationally:

1. Hoffman and his wife lived in the city of Champlin. The city of Brooklyn Park borders it -- that's where Hortman lived; a few miles away.

2. Champlin police got a call at 2am that Hoffman had been shot. Brooklyn Park police also arrived to assist Champlin police.

3. At 3:35am, a Brooklyn Park police sergeant reportedly asked for a proactive check on Hortman's home. What made him do this? Why would he do that? This is unclear.

4. Brooklyn Park police arrive at Hortman's home to find the suspect, Boelter, exiting the home where he exchanges gunfire with the officers before retreating back into the home. What is he doing there over an hour and half after the first shooting when the distance is only a few miles?

5. It's at this point police recover Boelter's vehicle with his manifesto and other incriminating evidence conveniently inside. it was at this point, police learned of a potential motive. So, again, back to #3, how did they know to check Hortman's?

These details have yet to be provided.

Also, his wife was stopped with $50K I'm cash, passports, etc. Where are their 5 kids? How old are they? Are the aiding him?
 
^ Edit to my previous post...

Also, his wife was stopped with $50K in cash, passports, weapon etc. Where are their 5 kids? How old are they? Are the aiding him? To my understanding she's not under arrest or being detained. What were the circumstances of the traffic stop?

She was stopped near Onamia, MN, which is no where near the crime scenes or their home in Green Isle.
 
Senator Whitehouse’s takes are cringe. He’s a senator, but those are kind of stupid takes. As dumb elected official behavior goes, this is tame in 2025.
 
3. At 3:35am, a Brooklyn Park police sergeant reportedly asked for a proactive check on Hortman's home. What made him do this? Why would he do that? This is unclear.

We have several politicians who either have offices or residences in our area, or neighboring cities.....it's very common to check on the other places when one place is either vandalized or suspicious circumstances have happened.....pretty normal.
