Steve,

You continue to spew falsehoods and ignore facts. Masks did help slow the spread of covid and other viruses. Doctors and scientists prove this but you ignore it. No one was arrested for not wearing a mask but rather for trespassing in spaces that required them. There's a difference. Wear the mask in spaces that required it or leave the space on your own accord. It was never a crime to not mask up. A mask doesn't hurt someone, it only helps protect you and others from spreading viruses.

The vaccine was also never required to exist in our country. Some employers required it but the govt did not hold you down and force you to take it. Again, the choice was yours to take a vaccine or not. If you didn't, you may have been fired or refused service in some places but that's not the govt being involved. It's your employer or private businesses.

You continue to spew garbage and I don't understand why you can't live in reality when facts and science exist.

What's this stuff about new winter coats? You know people in MN earn a decent wage and that coats last more than one year, don't you?

the very second any individual citizen assumes their right to protest grievances with the government allows them to impede another citizens right to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness, theyve forgone their rights. The constitution enshrines the words on the declaration of independence. Its not a document that gives us any rights whatsoever, it only indicates what rights the government does, or does not have. At some point, the government must decide which citizens rights trump anothers, and in this case and all, it will always be those whose life, liberty and pursuit of happiness are being trampled on by those with selfish motivation. 
Most of you arguing this shit wanted people arrested for not wearing paper masks that had zero scientifically proven benefit, you cheered when others were terminated from their employment for not taking unproven chemicals into their bodies that required a manufacturers blanket immunity for them to produce. you have no standing to speak of overreach
This is going to play out as a justified homicide, as did the lady in the car. Was it a shitshow, yep, but theres a consequence of the above mentioned people doing what they do best, cause shitshows. 

thousands of brand new winter coats isnt organic. When they realized they didnt have to look at skin tone, or chains to enslave a population, they knew you were coming. How many more bodies are you willing to stack for them?

Steve,
    What they are doing is so far beyond the job of removing violent offenders, which is what the avowed purpose of the surge was claimed to be.   But you live in your National Socialist Workers Party enclave and cheer the overthrow of the constitution.   You are probably on a list of drug abusers and when they finally get around to you, you will probably go down claiming "I was all on your side, why me?"   Or you are smart and will enlist in the gestapo hoping that marching alongside protects you from the chaos you will be part of.  

None of what is happening is about illegals at this point.  It's about provoking the insurrection act.  But so far the people of MN are not falling for it.   The word PEACEFUL gets put front and center constantly.   And every peaceful killing is another stick in the craw of everyone else in the country that understands that this is about the United States staying a representative democracy.   And a place that we can have these arguments without being locked up in jail or killed.

Why does it matter why he was there?  Perhaps he was getting donuts.  Perhaps he was going for a walk?  Getting coffee.  Perhaps he was going to Far Left of Center for a gun safety class.  It's a free country, at least for now.  Are you going to blame everyone who gets assaulted by Trump's Republican Gestapo for existing in their own city wherever the goon squads show up?  The funny thing about living in a war zone is that life just goes on.  You still need to go out and get groceries, go to work, etc.

Jason,

 

I go back to my original question.  Why was he even there?  What possesses an intelligent man to pick up his gun and go out in sub-zero temperatures to observe?  All of these observers must now know there is an increased chance they will be injured or even killed.  Why would you voluntary go into that type of situation.

There is zero evidence that Pretti was picking a fight. He had a handgun on him, it was holstered until the ICE officer removed it himself. Where are the 2nd amendment people on this? Now carrying a weapon (legally, mind you) around law enforcement is justification for deadly force? I've watched a couple of the recordings and the administration is outright lying about this. Full stop.

Trump Bad, Trump Good, ICE Bad, ICE Good, Renee Bystander, Renee Domestic Terrorist, Alex Bystander, Alex Domestic Terrorist.  It is pointless to discuss these topics.  People are too far entrenched in their opinions.  Nothing one side can say will ever change the mind of the other side.  The two sides will watch the exact same videos and come up with polar opposite opinions of what happened.  Even if something is proven as complete fact by one side, it will be dismissed as false news or a cover up by the other side.

 

My question is why Minnesota, specifically Minneapolis and St. Paul.  Why has it become so violent and filled with hate just there.  We do not see this level of hate anywhere else in the country.  ICE seems to be making arrests without incident all around the rest of the country.

 

What makes an intelligent man (ICU Nurse) decide he is going to grab his gun and go fight ICE agents.  What happen to this man's thought process?  Does anyone here have that level of hate where they will decide to grab their gun and venture out in sub-zero weather looking to pick a fight with armed ICE agents? 

 

When did it become acceptable to storm a church during a service?  Protest outside if you want, but storming in during a service.  Where did this hate come from.  Trump or Waltz, depends what side you are on.  I pretty sure the people storming the church had more hate than the people inside the church in this case. 

 

The ICE agents are there to do a job, like it or not.  I don't understand when it became acceptable to interfere in an arrest that you know nothing about.  You may agree or disagree with Trump's policies, but that does not mean you can interfere with law enforcement doing their job.  Like it or not, believe it or not, they are arresting some bad people.  They also are making some questionable arrests.  But being an "observer" that knows nothing about what the arrest is about and interfering in not the answer.  

 

This is only going to get worst.  The ICE agents are very skittish with good reason.  One could argue that in most situations they may be in fear of their lives.  It is just a matter of time before an ICE agent is killed.  There will be more "observer" deaths. Some will celebrate while others rage.  End of the day it is very sad whenever someone dies for no good reason.  

 

Some will say Trump just has to back down, others will say Waltz needs to get control of his State.  I fear neither of these men will do this and more deaths will result.

 

Blame whoever you want, continue the name calling, continue the fear mongering, fuel the hate, It is truly a sad time in our history.

So what I am hearing from you, Chuck, between the lines, is that you abet the murder of Alex Pretti?  That the actions of ICE in MN is ok because of the premise of removing "illegal" immigrants?  

Come on I thought you understood that the legitimacy of a small good isn't justification of evil.   The lies that were put forth right off the bat in the murder of Alex are not, in any circumstance, justifiable.  Not to someone who truly believes the Mormon religion.

 I am not Mormon, but a large part of my family is.   And they are some of the best people I am related to.  

I stay in this shit filled room because I believe that just leaving doesn't do anything to clean up the crap.  

Your saying that part of what DJT does justifies the rest of what he does sounds like those who looked the other way in Germany in 1936.   OH look he has saved the economy and built the autobahn.   Look deeper into the government and economy that Hitler built and you find it was all debt financing and without the war is was just about to destroy itself.   And guess what is going on in the US right now.  EXACTLY THE SAME.  

I consider myself centrist.  But there is now and never a way to justify the way that ICE is violating the constitution and the blessing of that by the current administration.   This has nothing to do with previous administrations except for the contribution that they had in creating justifications for people to create what we have Now..    Now we have to be clear that what is going on is NOT ok.   And being indifferent to it is abetting it.   Going and saying that people who are being aghast at what is going on have TDS is saying you are on the side of the federal government taking people filming or helping someone up off the street and killing them is a country that is good with you.   Basically you are agreeing with the tenants of a National Socialist Workers Party.   And that anyone who isn't is subject to Jail and death.    You can kick me out of this group if you want but taunting me to leave or shut up isn't going to work.   That's what bullies do.  

I am directing this to you, Chuck, because you are/were the heart of this list.   The members here are hear because of what you gathered around you, very much including me.   To find out you bless someone of what DJT does makes it alright for what else he does sounds like the teasings of the devil have embraced you.    And that makes me sad.

I just went back and looked, and my first post here was in 2012. So maybe not 20 years here, but 13. 

 

I can remember some pretty garbage times on this list every time politics get raised, even to the point of certain people leaving, because this is a terrible platform to trump(et) your views. Been on the internet for over 30 years and not once have I seen sane political discourse on message boards or social media. It's even worse with astroturfing in every direction, literal bots riling up people in whatever direction Russia or India or China wants. You've seen it, you've seen the bot problems on all social media, and yet David talks about the USA standing up to Russia like they're doing fucking anything about it. Other countries try to get rid of the garbage social media companies from the USA and trumpster unilaterally threatens tariffs and cries like a little baby. 

 

The fact that the USA has gone so far down the path that you literally have a man who apparently can do whatever they want with no consequences is the broke brain part of my statements. A literal rapist, thief. Cool. Nice job. You guys did it. Build the wall and ya'll can sort each-other out. 

 

Pick and choose your platforms, figure out what is real and what isn't. Go talk to people in the physical world. You'll get to understand your fellow man a lot quicker and if your aim is to make change.

Subject: [AFMUG] OT - Greenland

 

So many think Trump is a bully on Greenland . . . If you think he's so terrible, you absolutely don’t know history.

 

1)  1867 – Andrew Johnson: explored buying Greenland & Iceland (right after Alaska).

2)  WWII – FDR: U.S. took over Greenland’s defense while Denmark was occupied.
3)  1946 – Truman: offered $100M in gold to buy it.
4)  Cold War – Eisenhower → Kennedy: nonstop negotiations for bases, radar, missiles.
5)  Post–Cold War – Clinton/Bush/Obama: expanded Arctic security & missile defense.
6)  2019 – Trump: said publicly what presidents discussed privately for 150+ years.

The U.S. didn’t “suddenly” want Greenland.
It’s been defending it, negotiating it, and embedding there since the 1800s.
Greenland = Arctic power, shipping lanes, missiles, minerals.
Trump didn’t invent it. His crime is he said the quiet part out loud.

=======================

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said on Jan. 21 at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, that Trump is spot on about the importance of Greenland to security.  He said, "When it comes to the Arctic, I think President Trump is right. Other leaders in NATO are right. We need to defend the Arctic.  There are eight countries bordering on the Arctic. Seven are members of NATO. That’s Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Iceland, Canada, and the U.S.,” Rutte said.
"And there’s only one country bordering on the Arctic outside NATO, and that’s Russia. And I would argue there is a ninth country, which is China, which is increasingly active in the Arctic region. So, President Trump and other leaders are right, we have to do more there; we have to protect the Arctic."
