Ah yes, reminds me of the “free speech zones” during the protests under W during the invasion of Iraq. Funny how fickle that pesky first amendment can be. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_speech_zone
I have serious doubts that his badge number is 4567. It also seemed like he had to check what his name was (looked down at his vest and paused), so who knows if he was honest about that, too.
When I worked at a commercial alarm company as a monitor, we were told to only give out an operator number and not a name when we dealt with any form of law enforcement on the phone. The reason was that if they subpoenaed “operator 29,” one of our designated people would go in and read off our notes. Remember: this was just for an alarm company. The government’s own stormtrooper division has a lot more incentive to provide bullshit credentials.
Until these dudes are laughed at and the crowd gangs up on them with impunity they will keep acting like this. Sorry fellas, its time to nut up or shut up since we couldn't so the only winning move in NOT FUCKING ELECTING A BRAZEN FASCIST.

we're going to need more poster board
panda_abyss@lemmy.ca · 14 pts · 297d
Poster board is so expensive though. Who will fund buying it?
syreus@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 296d
I wonder if that Soros guy give poster board grants.
lurch@sh.itjust.works · 8 pts · 297d
I have a feeling, that poster board alone probably isn't gonna cut it.

If someone were to drop a pallet of posterboards on those guys Looney Tunes style I should hope it doesn't whistle as usual on the way down.

When he says “when this is over I can show you all the walls”, is that a threat to arrest them?
CubitOom@infosec.pub · 26 pts · 297d
