    Believe me, I know that. I don't expect much of anything positive coming my way out of the Biden Administration. It's Obama 2.0. These designated terror groups weren't relative until Obama's reign. And if they were, he certainly didn't act on it.

    I'm not sure there's any rights being violated. He was let go within 48 hours. He was read his Miranda rights. It isn't a crime to hurt his feelings... Not yet anway.

    He would never get arrested because he’s a law-abiding citizen. Damn, it is so hard talking to you loonies. I have never been arrested in my life other than a few minor traffic violations, and I am an old fart. There is a myth existed out there with you guys that the police will arrest you for doing nothing?

    I've been run downtown for unpaid warrants before (more than once....such a dumbass). I was treated like the sh!tbird I deserved to be treated like. It served as a deterrent from ever wanting to back. As it should. Of course that deterrent is being removed with your approval.

    You have just proved an important point to the loonies on the left for being honest. People don’t get arrested for nothing.

    How about the fact he was detained 48 hours without a charge or even being accused of anything?

    Or the fact that unmarked men in military operator gear nabbed people without even giving a reason?


    How the **** do you defend this?

    I swear to God this administration is trying to push the limits to see how much the bootlickers will defend.

    A lot of conclusions being drawn here. All of this still seems fishy to me on many levels. I understand not being happy with the state of these cities and I certainly wasn't happy about what happened in Minneapolis and do think Mayor Frey and Gov. Walz made some bad decisions on the way. I and others went out patrolled our neighborhoods because it looked like things weren't going well. Eventually though things calmed down and LE and protesters seemed to come to agreement. While we still have protests there have been very little property damage since then while like CHAZ the area around where George Floyd died is still essentially occupied by protesters. While Trump offered Federal police they weren't used and Walz turned them down. Things were handled by Minnesota from regional PD's to National Guard.

    Now Portland isn't the same as Minneapolis but that's one reason why I'm not going to jump to conclusions here. Here are the questions I have.
    1. Are these people in camo and body armor taking people off the street really Federal LE?
    2. If they are what authority are the operating under to take people in custody? Has Gov. Brown or the Oregon legislator asked for their assistance?
    3. Who are they taking into custody? Are these people with known records or other evidence against them? In the video why did they single out that one person?
    4. What is the charge? From the story provided by Oregon Public Broadcasting it sounds like even though they were taken into custody and had their rights to read to them no charge was given and they were let go.

    I admit things are not adding up but this would have to be a huge false flag and then you have this guy saying this.

    The pro secret police faction has spoken. I’d like to say I’m surprised but I’m not because we know the current state of conservatism has no ethics or integrity.

    Unidentified masked men taking someone off the street is called kidnapping. This is no different than the secret police in Communist countries. They sweep people up, identify them, put them in their databases for future purposes, and then let them go. Now they can surveil that person digitally with ease. This falls right in line with reports of spy planes going over protests to get cell phone information.

    This administration has pushed the boundaries for years and now they’re exhibiting textbook use of secret police.

    My only pause is that this would be a bigger story if this is what is actually happening.

    It's highly illegal and some lawyer would be raising Holly hell.

    Because there was violence doesn't mean random folks can be rounded up. Our nation has a constitutional procedure for arresting criminals. If they are criminals they should get a warrant and arrest them.

    Defending these authoritarian measures is not something that makes anyone safer or strengthens our nation in any way.

    Except what authority is he acting under? Some of the more knowledgeable legal minds can correct me if I'm wrong here but my understanding of Posse Comitatus is that Federal forces cannot go into a state and operate as a police force without the agreement of the state government.

    If this is true I'm going to point out this is precisely the type of behavior that the people in HK were protesting over. That the PRC under the argument that HK couldn't handle its protests would step in and restore law and order.
