I got this from reddit. In one of the comments I found this about Washington state: Governor Bob Ferguson signed into law a bill that restricts out-of-state military forces from entering Washington. House Bill 1321….
I suggest we write our local governments to enact the same type of law before it is too late.
If you’re not already, I advise you to be white and male pretty quick. This is definitely a prelude to martial law.
Also straight, healthy and neurotypical.
And not poor, billionaire would be preferable.
That’s the essential ingredient
I have heard that being european and living in Europe is also a good way to deal with the current situation in the US
Speaking as an American…
Right up until the idiot starts mumbling about the “52nd state”…
That will never happen, I am calling it now, barring any extreme political change there will be no change in the number of states in the US, especially not one from Europe.
Territories, yeah, I can see that.
So say we all!
Yet veterans in comment sections of police shootings say that they have better trigger discipline when they are policing an area.
They probably do, but that doesn’t mean they are right for the job on US soil.
Police are the violent arm of the state, the fuck he on about lol? Cops don’t protect shit but capitol.
Frack, BSG was good…
So this is where all those privately owned guns are gonna be used for their intended purpose - to oppose tyranny. Right?.. Right?
Incoming onion article: NRA says using guns to overthrow tyrannical government a right, not an obligation
Edit: I don’t knows if I should remove this, it is in bad taste, this is a gravely serious thing.
Initially my thought was this is what they’ll actually say or something – kind of dark humour.
I wish all Americans the best over the next several years.
Thank you.
Probably not, based on the gun laws I’m seeing there.
Martial law here we come
Wow, it’s like he’s building his own brown shirt brigade across the country!
red hats = brown shirts
ice = gestapo
this = ss
Joke’s on him - local police have been getting heavy duty military equipment for decades.
I just wish that joke was funny.
Ikr? Those ah’s already walk around dressed like they’re in battle.
Crime is whatever he says it is I guess, and includes but is not limited to having the wrong skin color.
Send them to the White House where the frequency and scale of the crimes is the highest
send them to the white house instead.
The crime’s coming from inside the house
The slippery slope has arrived. WTAF?? My heart is with my American friends who are having to live through this nightmare. My Canadian heart is thankful that we have Carney at the helm for the time being. I’m wishing the best for the Australian’s upcoming election (elbows up, mates!). Sadly, the relief from stress of having Carney win the election has been short lived.
My understanding is that the washington law has an exemption for troops activated by the president or something. So it is mostly toothless. But it is symbolic. And in this case that is worth something.
What about Posse Comitatus?
Laws don’t apply to the president and the police.
That only applies to Title 10 troops.
So local police will now have access to nukes?
Because at this point that’s almost the only thing they don’t have yet.
