I'd love to watch the fun up close.

Caption from a photo in the article: An ICE protestor could be seen firing a gun directly towards federal agents

Hint: When he's shooting at someone he ceases to be a "protestor".

[BenLurkin]

“Dystopian”?

[Dogbert41]

They raided an illegal pot farm run by cartels. California up in arms. They should send in the marines and the DOJ and IRS and look see where all their money is going and who they’ve been paying off.

[SmokingJoe]

These Mexican illegals are just too much.
They are even openly using their children to grow weed on their own farms.
A good thing BBB allocated close to a 100 Billion to build border walls and deal with illegals.

he was wilding shooting and running. protestors could have been shot

[Tudorfly]

He should have been shot.

This is impossible! Everyone knows that marijuana makes you laid back and peaceful. (Reality is that it’s as likely to make you paranoid and incapable of controlling your impulses.)

[LouAvul]

witnesses described as a sudden and aggressive operation

Hey! We told you mongrels to go back to whatever hole you came from and apply through legal and civilized channels. You repeatedly break our immigration laws and drain our economy so, "sudden and aggressive" is what came next! Idiots.

[Bernard]

Okay. “Who had “ICE raid on a marijuana field in July on their bingo card?”

[dangus]

Also notice that it manages to put “ICE” in the subject of the sentence. It takes a lot of brain processing power to perceive that an “ICE protestor” is protesting AGAINST ICE, not FOR it. Even if your intellect processes it correctly (as most non-stupid people would admittedly be able to do so quickly that the correction is made before they realize they ever needed correcting), the instant of ambiguity dulls your emotional response enough so you don’t form knee-jerk reactions against those scary protestors.

Let's go out of here, man!

C’mon... it was mostly peacful. Only one gun was discharged at the Police.

I know that area well. It is a sleepy little community surrounded by Agriculture. Costner has a $50-$60 mil place there. Prime country. What a shame. Watch the loonies come out and defend the kids working on the farms putting out meals for us privileged folk. The majority of cannabis growers operate without permit. Don’t know if this is one of them, though I kind of doubt it given the openness of the operation. That said, kids in the field with these crops? idiots.

Pouring milk into your eyes is a great way to introduce harmful bacteria into your eyes. Milk is easily contaminated, especially in hot weather.. Water or saline rinse is much more effective and safer.

[Lockbox]

I read the grow operation was legal. Just another way for California to generate taxes. So since there are child work laws in California where was the State over the years enforcing child labor laws? 🤔🤔🤔🤔

[Dogbert41]

I could be wrong. I was watching a channel on YT that while reporting/covering the action claimed it was an illegal pot farm op.

[piasa]

The very fact that the protesters had milk on hand to sooth teargassed eyes pretty much tells us they were looking to start trouble.

Hint: When he's shooting at someone he ceases to be a "protestor".

In a just world, he would be thereafter known as the deceased.

[piasa]

Water is safer but not “more effective” when it comes to relief.

[GSWarrior]

Perhaps, but water is much safer.
