I'm hoping that it will be a Mondale-esque humiliation. I want to watch TYT gnash their teeth and vow revenge on the Dems again. I want to see crying and fist waving at the sky. I want to see ANTIFA/BLM be rejected for their destruction. But I'll settle for whichever win Trump gets.

GA alone is investigating 1,000 cases of double voting. Gotta wonder how many states will just ignore the same...

He argues that target identification is vital in this environment lest one kill a protestor and be justifiable charged.

I only quoted that one paragraph to respond to the specific question posed about mobs and culpability. You are absolutely right about the importance of reading the entire article.

And....you just lost. Contrary to what the bed wetting politicos and their military generals spout, collateral damage has been a part of every confrontation in history. And when the damage overall is extreme enough, one side opts to concede. So which side should that be? My vote is for them.

And what happens with these morons if Trump does win big? They didn't seem to mention what their plans are if that happens. If I have to guess, the same as if Biden were to eek out a win and we contest it. The reality...violence is likely to be rampant no matter what comes out of this election.

Rochester Police Chief Suddenly Resigns Over "Attempt To Destroy My Character" - Entire Command Staff Joins

https://www.zerohedge.com/poli...destroy-my-character

In a Tuesday statement, Chief Singletary said in part: "As a man of integrity, I will not sit idly by while outside entities attempt to destroy my character," adding "The events over the past week are an attempt to destroy my character and integrity."

Hopefully the Molotov possessing and throwing choads are dealt with, at least this way:

quote:

As incendiary devices, Molotov cocktails are illegal to manufacture or possess in many regions. In the United States, Molotov cocktails are considered "destructive devices" under the National Firearms Act and regulated by the ATF.[42]

Wil Casey Floyd, formerly from Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin, was arrested after throwing Molotov cocktails at Seattle Police Officers during a protest in May 2016; he pleaded guilty for using the incendiary devices in February 2018.[43]

At Simpson County, Kentucky, 20-year-old Trey Alexander Gwathney-Law attempted to burn Franklin-Simpson County Middle School with five Molotov cocktails; he was found guilty of making and possessing illegal firearms and was sentenced to 20 years in prison in 2018.[44]

Radio? Who says that they don't have the local police freq's. Key the mike up and you're messing up communication, or just listen in and see what the police are doing.
Trust me, they are prepared, and know what they are doing.

Any PD worth it's salt will have encrypted communications.

The particular model of radio that she is carrying isn't capable of encryption. They are either illegally using the HAM bands (which of course they don't care about the law), or they are using FRS or GMRS freqs.


I wonder how sophisticated their comms actually are. Based on what I am seeing here, not very.[/QUOTE]

You’d be surprised on how many departments DONT have encrypted coms! Cheaper to get 1000 non-encrypted radios than encrypted ones. And at the time, “who needs this?” is often the question when it comes to budgets.

I’ve posted about this earlier in this thread.
This shit ain’t hard to figure out. $50 on the internet, and you have a 2 way programable radio.
30 seconds of work on the internet, and the police freqs are easily found. Program the radio, and any simpleton can now listen in or transmit on those freqs. It’s been happening here for a long time now.
Yeah, we have a few encrypted channels, but regular patrol, and most of our special units don’t have them.
All someone needs to do is key up the mike, and just keep it down... rather infuriating when you’re on the scene of a police officer shot and dead, and NWA’s “fuck the police” is coming over the police radio. That happened when Comander Paul Bauer was killed downtown a few years ago. It happened again here during the riots starting in may.

Look on YouTube, search “riot control tactics”... Then ask yourself why there’s over a million hits? I didn’t think that “riot control” was that popular.
Guess who’s doing homework?

Like I said, DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE these antifa / blm / blacblock shitstains!
It’s only a matter of time until one of them starts making improvised explosives from their fireworks or other stuff.

why do the riots last and last ?

https://www.breitbart.com/poli...leased-without-bail/

Portland police arrested dozens of rioters in the city over last weekend’s protests, which were dominated by Antifa activity and continued violence against police officers.

Over 50 people were arrested as a result of Saturday’s protests in the Democrat-run city. Demonstrators tossed firebombs, rocks, and commercial grade fireworks at police. Fifteen more were arrested in the protests taking place the following night, as rioters set fires and blocked roads.

Journalist Andy Ngo posted several mugshots of the most recent arrestees

many of whom were quickly released without bail.

Good to see they hire someone "qualified"

Let's see....she's Black......and the 1st Black woman in this position....and she's Black.

Any questions?


Black woman to lead Louisville police in wake of Breonna Taylor killing
By Vandana Rambaran

Published September 08, 2020

Fox News

A [I]Black woman[I] will serve as the interim chief of the Louisville Metro Police Department – becoming the first to hold the position – as protests rock the city following the death of Breonna Taylor during a raid.

NEW DETAILS EMERGE FROM NIGHT BREONNA TAYLOR WAS SHOT AFTER REVIEW OF OVER 1,200 CRIME SCENE PHOTOS

Yvette Gentry was appointed to the post by Mayor Greg Fischer on Monday. She succeeds Interim Chief Robert Schroeder, who is retiring after less than three months in the position.

Longtime Chief Steve Conrad was fired earlier this year after the mayor revealed officers didn't have body cameras turned on during a fatal police shooting of the owner of a popular West End eatery.

The department has faced intense scrutiny after officers carrying out a no-knock search warrant during a narcotics investigation fired over 20 rounds into Taylor's home. She was struck eight times and killed.

Her death is under investigation by the FBI and Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron. Authorities have said the officers fired back after Taylor's boyfriend started shooting at them.

Gentry, who addressed a crowd of protesters after Monday's announcement, said she hoped to mend relationships between police and the Black community.

“I’m not here just to help you unboard your beautiful buildings downtown,” she said. “I’m here to work with you to unboard the community that I served with all my heart in west Louisville, that was boarded for 20 or 30 years.”

She said the past four months have been tough on police officers as well as on protesters, adding that it’s tough “seeing things just feel so hopeless.”

“I will just say: That is just a glimpse of how a lot of people have been feeling for a long time, and we can’t go back,” Gentry said. “I think our city is at a point of reckoning that only truth can bring us out of. Only truth can break us out; only truth can take away darkness.”

Gentry told The Courier-Journal in an interview that she doesn’t want to be the permanent police chief – and didn’t apply for the position.

“When you live in Louisville, and you raise your kids here, like I do, and your family’s here, I want that chief to be successful,” said Gentry, a Louisville native. “So, even though I wasn’t interested in the full-time job, I realized that somebody has to stand in the gap.”

Fischer is expected to name a new leader by the end of 2020.

In an interview, Gentry acknowledged that improving community relations, reducing crime and boosting officer morale simultaneously won’t be an easy task, but said she's in as “good a position as anyone could be.”

[I]“Being a Black woman[I], and a veteran and a former police officer, when you’ve worn all the hats of people who are out here, wanting to be heard, and you’ve worked in a place where you’ve tried to be heard and didn’t necessarily feel like you were, I just feel like I have that type of experience that I can bring in there,” Gentry said. “People are just so far apart. And maybe, I can be in the middle and I can bridge it."

Someone should sniper the Molotovs with a pellet gun or whatever while they're being held.

Make it a group project, let everyone of them enjoy the fun.

This would be my approach *if* it came to my neighborhood (25mi outside DC). Ruins their night and I've shot zero people.

The Texan SS would work very well!

The Portland Police Bureau spent $6.9 million on overtime in June and July alone, representing a “200% increase in overtime spending compared to that same time period last year when police spent $2.3 million,” KATU News found.

While Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden (D) denies that he supports defunding the police, he seeks to “re-direct” police funding, which essentially has the same effect. Additionally, his running mate, Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), has encouraged voters to donate to the Minnesota Freedom Fund (MFF), which openly supports defunding the police

Hopefully all the red, mostly all the blue (yeah right, I know), and all the swing states get this crap tightly under hand.

I'll tell you what would put a huge smile on my face. The fraud being so rampant, obvious, and accepted in deep blue states like California, New York, Connecticut, etc. that Biden wins the popular vote by something absurd like 40 million...

But Trump wins the electoral college in a landslide and wins the election.

Talk about democrat heads exploding...

Never happen obviously, but one can dream...

As someone who lives in CA, my first reaction was, “Duh, you just answered your own question.” My second was, “Well, it might make it easier to pry Mrs. slosig out of here without a knock down, drag out. Hmmm... might be a good thing after all.”

A pellet gun (or wrist rocket) strong enough to break a bottle could easily be strong enough to do serious injury to a bystander. It also might be less accurate than a dialed-in rifle (the wrist rocket almost certainly would be). I'm afraid there just don't seem to be any good choices in that scenario unless they put down a box of cocktails and step away far enough that the bottles can just be blasted. Of course, then you've got flammable jelly all over your street and some yo-yo's bound to light it "just to shake up the system".

^^^ The good choice is I live in the suburbs 25mi outside the city. If I'm really faced with this type of situation it's civil war and I don't think the legalities really matter.

No secession talk should be entertained, besides which California in particular and their enormous economy, plus the westcoastline itself, is far, far too large and valuable.

The United States government will never let go of those assets, and should not. Bases, natural resources, fertile land in good climates, and on and on.

Don't get it twisted, as fucked up as California politics are, it's not going anywhere, especially in a world where our enemies to the West (CCP China) are unrelenting.
