Don’t worry you liberal crybabies in here. This arrest program is dubbed “ Save American Lives “ and it’s a continuation of Treadstone and Blackbriar. I feel so much safer that American lives are being saved.
You seem like a smart, well educated guy. But this is an idiotic post. You can't believe yourself in this. You're smarter than that.
Oh wait - maybe we can just assume he doing nothing wrong. Or only just defacing someone's property. Glad it wasn't mine.
I like the "violent anarchist - graffiti"" line...... "What if" You are comfort with that wing and a prayer? Yeah..... no, they would kill you, take you away and no one would discuss what happened.
Even "if" he was only graffiti painting, would you want it all over your property? If so, put a sign up on your lawn - "Graffiti welcome on my house".
Would you want children stealing your Christmas decorations? No. Does that mean you want secret police in camo, plate carriers and m4s driving up in vans and taking those kids away without identifying who they are and why they are detaining you? Well seeing as how you routinely bootlick for a fascist, maybe.
Can you imagine if some guy in Oregon was arguing with the Bureau of Land Management what the reaction would be? If this is done to prevent graffiti, I bet the "conservatives" would want a strong, immediate response too - not patience...
What other absurd conspiracies did the right project under Obama because they all are seeming to come actually true.
And not only that. They drive up, don't warn who they are and just nab people on the streets. Right now, if you are right wing militia, you can go to Portland with your ammosexual kit and just drive up to random protestors and kidnap them with impunity. That is insane.
I've just seen this and skimmed the thread. I'm skeptical about this. The video everyone seems a little too calm as unidentified LE just come and single out one person while not telling anyone else to step back and not interfere. Meanwhile the suspect doesn't even quickly give his name or other relevant info even to the people trying to help him. I would like to know much more about this before jumping to the conclusion that the US Federal government is disappearing people off the streets of Portland. Now if this is real this clearly a violation of several Constitutional principles. Federal officers can operate freely in DC because it is under Federal control. Portland is under Oregon state control and unless this "arrest" was happening on Federal property like literally within the property line of a Federal officers can't make an arrest under Posse Comitatus. Unless the governor has asked them to. Further LE can't just take someone into custody without letting them know the reason for it.
"It doesn't matter who we are. What matters is our plan." Spoiler "So capturing graffiti artists? This was all part of your plan?" "Of course!"
LOL Are you 10 years old? The list of "crimes" were released...... they are all graffiti. Also no I don't want graffiti on my home, but I also don't think that an unnamed, masked police force in unmarked cars and without identification should come to my home and take someone away...... so they can pave paradise and put up a parking lot.
I don't know Oregon law but I'm willing to bet that it is illegal to impersonate LE and also that citizens' arrest is probably like what we saw in GA that a citizen has to actually witness the crime.
Well good thing those making the arrests without informing who they are aren't wearing easily spoofable military kit equipment you can easily but at a surplus store. This ain't the hill to die on.
