So the police arenβt completely militarized yet, like here.
I think they blew off a student's hand.

These cops, no. But these aren't riot cops. Riot copsin France are legit monsters. Absolutely horrible.
At this rate, they will be
ACAB
Him, his family, everyone who donated over 10k in the last election to Republicans, anyone who donated to his ballroom fund and anyone he appointed to any government position need to be executed outright.
All this bullshit about reforming/expanding the supreme Court is entirely unnecessary. Nothing that Trump has done is legitimate. Just retcon all of his actions since 2016. His SC judges? Yeah they're gone, straight to a military tribunal. The next president will get to nominate at least 3 new SC judges, and every case since a Trump nominee hit the court will need to be re-done. Same with his cereal judge nominations. Fox News will lose it's broadcast license along with other foreign owned media companies that have conspired to subvert our democracy.
If there's any pushback, open the net. People that donated 5k or more, federal prison. All Republicans house/Senate members? Fucking dead.
If they bitch, open it up more, their kids will have all assets seized, etc.
Unfortunately the USA government will never touch their elites. So all this is hopeful thinking
Our police have low end military equipment, that's about it. Being militarized means not having fat lazy 40-60 year olds on the force, and America sure as shit ain't there yet.
Our police love the optics of having military gear, but quite frankly they aren't trained and versed on military tactics, discipline, or a number of other things that would make them effective. That's why when there's a real problem like a school shooting or hostage situation they just stand around sucking each other off while wearing body army and holding $1500 AR's. They're just security theater. They care about getting easy overtime. They want to go home at the end of the day. They don't want to die violently. They are paper tigers.
The best part is that when one dies or quits, they have to hire a replacement. It would be fairly easy to create a scenario where a PD NEEDS to hire new officers ASAP, then you flood then with Manchurian applicants. Get your man inside, then you're golden.
