THE NEXT MAJOR DEVELOPMENT IN MILITARY TECHNOLOGY WILL BE TO GIVE EACH PROJECTILE A MIND AND SOUL, AS THE ERRATIC MOVEMENTS CAUSED BY THEIR INNATE SELF PRESERVATION INSTINCTS WILL MAKE THEM HARD TO INTERCEPT
Not trying to imply Zohran is based but it's funny how he's making TikToks telling people "make very angry faces at ICE but DO NOT engage them physically, that's illegal" meanwhile Kamala's VP is urging people to do Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades-style suicide attacks
In CCW class they tell you you have a heightened duty to avoid potential fights while armed, as a matter of legal and practical self-preservation. You don't want to raise the stakes to death in a fight, and you don't want to have to argue to a jury later about whether you provoked a fight while armed to bait someone into a self-defense situation.
The anti-ICE protestors have inverted the duties of being an armed citizen (or a citizen in control of a lethal instrument, like a car in a traffic stop). They are deliberately creating situations of maximum ambiguity with a low level threat of lethal danger to bait law enforcement into making them heroic victims or martyrs.
Being an "observer" of law enforcement, while also armed and getting into shoving distance with them, is just a bad idea, even if you think the law empowers you to play the "I'm not touching you" game with acts of defiance or minor assaults. It's also hazardous to the public trust to create a situation in which every protestor is regarded as a potential threat, and every cop seen to be on the edge of shooting someone.
I can't tell from the video whether this guy drew his gun at any point in the struggle. Regardless, getting into a struggle with a cop while armed has a serious chance of ending in your death. Even if the resulting shoot is ruled unjustified or in error, you're still dead, which is only good for people who profit from chaos and mistrust (protestors who cause is bad).
The shooting will not have been *unjust* or criminal, just a tragedy. It's also not proof of government oppression, because every government has to enforce laws, and you can't use the chaos of choosing to interfere with law enforcement as proof that having laws is unjust.
The Left frequently tries to run what we can call Cruelty Kafka Traps: they work to create situations and problems the solution to which will necessarily involve some degree of sternness, hard-heartedness, or cruelty, and then say "You can't solve this without cruelty, and you aren't allowed to be cruel, so you have to just roll over and take it."
Flooding nations with millions of illegal third world migrants is the current obvious example of this.
Mass deportations are necessary for the good and even the survival of nations, but they will necessarily involve some amount of cruelty.
For the Left, this is means that IT CANNOT BE DONE.
Of course, the Left itself is very cruel with just these Cruelty Kafka Traps, since kindness to the guilty is cruelty to the innocent. The Left's refusal of one kind of cruelty, to immigrants, to violent criminals, and so so, is the promotion of another kind of cruelty towards innocent and law-abiding citizens.

I got called into a meeting with HR today cause apparently telling my coworker that I knew he was a C-section baby by the way he avoids labour is not acceptable in the workplace.
