I am very glad they didn’t shoot.
However I am VERY surprised they didn’t start killing. You put that many cops in a situation like this, and they will often start shooting.
I worry that this is only the start.
Yes, I can see where you would think that. But look at it from another direction. It had better be the start with more to follow, else we are truly doomed.
The oppression will only get worse without resistance.
Yeah, but if they were hired within the last ten years or so, I wouldn't worry. They're truly lousy shots. Except possibly the snipers who may be the sort of folks that take their work more seriously. Why do you think the Feds bought so many billions of rounds of ammo recently? They only expect to hit one out of 10,000 shots.
The BLM didn’t shoot because they didn’t have overwhelming odds in their favor. The Feds were surrounded and their ‘courage’ evaporated.
