Tensions between BLM, local law enforcement near breaking point

"Over the past decade or so we have observed and experienced a militarization of BLM's officers," said Leland Pollack, a Garfield County commissioner. "Right or wrong, some equate BLM's law enforcement operations to the Gestapo of the World War II era."

Wow another great article . I did read the comments below the original article and some LEOs truly believe they are the Judge , Jury and above all else the Executioner. It gave me the willies , I sure hope they are the exception , not the rule.

Ah PoliceOne, the premier meeting place for statists and uniformed thugs. It's nice to see them arguing amongst themselves.

Here's the ultimate problem with a militarized BLM , or the rest of the alphabet bureaus, agencies and departments. The called forth militia, the organized military is NOT to be a tool of the executive branch alone. It's to be called forth by the congress and then directed by the commander in chief. It's a checks and balances thing.

The militarization of CABINET entities masquerading as civilian organization totally defeats those checks and balances save outright denial of all monies to the executive by the congress. Hence the "government shutdown " media hype. With that propaganda in place, granny denied healthcare and people staaaarvinv because snap monies aren't delivered, all checks upon the presidents private military force are gone.

Essentially we then have a kingship.
I wonder why the other kings, the nine kings called Supreme Court justices, are allowing the infringment upon territory they long ago claimed for themselves?

War is coming , and corrupt government IS preparing for it. Many see it and are doing the same thing. I would argue this is a weapons race as part of an ongoing Cold War. Cept this time the American government has set its sights on the civilians of this land.

They stated that they had no rules of engagement. That is good to know. Me thinks that they just might learn their lessons the hard way.

Afraid the wounds won't heal and no rules of engagement.

Fair warning.

I think of these little "disagreements" between Feds and locals, as the "disagreement" between the SA and the SS in Germany, circa 1938 or so.
Time will tell if the "disagreement" escalates to the level of Germany.
Actually, kind of hope it does.

The only ROE order they need is to bait people into shooting first or otherwise threatening immediate harm to the agents. Then "defending themselves" becomes their operationing premise.

It's driving the usurper absolutely crazy that we won't buy into it and take his bait. So worried is he that he has to hide away in Martha's Vineyard wondering what he could possibly dream up to light it all off.

But alas, he just doesn't understand that we don't be the ones to initiate violence. This because we truly truly do believe in DEFENSE.
