President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho approves. You’re right, but they’re needlessly throwing gasoline on the fire with this stuff, along with Trump and Noem’s reckless comments and Vance’s claim that ICE has blanket immunity. If I didn’t know better I’d think they want violent conflict and are actively creating the conditions where it’s more likely to happen. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I get saying something in a press conference that isn’t perfect in a back and forth (although there should be follow up).

Engorgeous George 2,354 Posted 5 hours ago 1 hour ago, thegeneral said: The road is not blocked. If it is time to arrest a person doing this shet in this scenario - a parked car in the road - Wouldn’t it be better to put a car in front and in back of the car and then pull her out of car? Stop sticks thrown under from the side. Also paint ball marking of the car if it tries to run. Sort of the dye pack in the bank money during robberies theory.

The problem is we can all see that this didn’t need to end like this and should hold cops to a standard way above this. I agree. I also think we should hold ourselves to a standard way above this (her conduct intending to precipitate a confrontation and potentially a crisis). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The guy lost his temper and shot her 3 times. That's what happened. The reason the original 50+ page thread was deleted was because this simple truth couldn't be ignored anymore, so like a snowflake they just deleted the thread instead. Typical MAGA.

Stop sticks help assure temporary investigative detention. There does not have to be a threat, only reasonable articulable supicion that a crime has occured or is occuring. In this instance I find that to exist. They were intentionally, knowingly, and recklessly interfering with law enforcement. More than enough to deploy stop sticks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still, in thread deletions there is always an element of throwing the baby out with the bath water. It is one of those things where there is no good solution. It is also a good analogy to the current situation. If enough chaos and discord can be created such that the adults in the room become exhausted then extreme remedies occur.

We always just locked the thread and took appropriate action against the bad actors. That way you don't lose the intellectual property that was created within the thread before it was locked.
