Yep. False flags happen because they are effective.
Exactly.
Is that pic from Kali? If so, wouldn’t those weapons be illegal there?

Thanks.

In addition to the replies you have already received, did you watch any of the footage from the Berkley standoffs?
Our side was forcefully repelling the Antifa street shutdowns, using their bodies & force of will to escort vehicles trying to negotiate public thoroughfares. They were opening holes in the crowd while waving drivers around.
Personally, I got no problem with mowing them down. If the practice of ‘free speech’ involves pretending to be a speed bump, the natural consequences should apply. Sadly, the law frowns upon this.
How can I, or any other law-abiding citizen going about the business of her day, avoid participating in political activity if the participants refuse to let me leave the area? So as a person with a life & job to attend to, I heartily thank the Conservawarriors for keeping the streets open.
If an individual or group won't permit you to leave, and actively impedes your ability to do so, isn't that a crime called "false imprisonment"?
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_imprisonment:
"False imprisonment occurs when a person is restricted in their personal movement within any area without justification or consent. Actual physical restraint is not necessary to a false imprisonment case. False imprisonment is a common-law felony and a tort. It applies to private as well as governmental detention."My understanding is that an individual may use force, including deadly force, to act in self defense (or defense of another) to avoid becoming a victim of false imprisonment.
Of course, it might ultimately be necessary to convince some entity—a prosecutor or jury, for instance—that you (or a third party you were acting on behalf of) felt legitimately that life or limb were a risk.
It might be up to a jury to determine whether the action in question was "reasonable" given the circumstances and the frame of mind of the person who acted defensively.
You can call it what you want.
That’s all good & well (maybe) once the case, if there is one, makes its way to court, however many months or years it may take to get there, assuming ability to identify an individual among a crowd known for masking their faces. And recovering what monetary damages from adult kids who reside in Mommy’s basement?
I don’t have time for that crap. Already been there, done that, and we were the ones who ‘won.’ I work for a living, & that’s all I have time or energy for.
I’ve been encouraging people here for years to read Orwell’s account of his time in that milieu, Homage to Catalonia. It is a quick read and is a great introduction to and first hand account of the Spanish Civil War. Orwell barely escaped with his life, not due to the Nationalists, but at the hands of his Communist allies in the purge you mentioned (he was an ideological socialist fighting with the anarchists). You can see this experience leading directly to his vastly more famous Animal Farm and 1984.
Yet our government insisted on maintaining the myth that the “Loyalists” were the good guys. Movies like “Sahara” and “The Guns of Navarrone” portray the Franquistas as Nazis...
I saw your post on an old thread I was researching and thought I’d say hi
How’s Bama?
Nashville is exploding
Hope you and yours are doing well bud!
