He's terrified of real people and invents fake ones he can like. He's terrified he will be held accountable for anything he has ever done and only wants it to go back to order to not change.
Yeah he would probably think that watching this video.

Dear protesters - keep waving those American flags - remind them who they're up against. Real Americans who don't want to see fascism prevail.

It helps that it's the real American flag too. The one congress voted on. Not the fucking traitor flags with weird stripes just for fascists.

Yep no real American flags.
Damn going into a dive about the three percenters is nuts, like, y'all don't like him control and are still mad about Obama, but he's not present and your orange shitbucket just said he wants to take guns away, what are you even doing

I hope they were rewarded with a pizza party afterwards. It seems like it was a hard day of getting absolutely pelted with anything that protesters had within arm's reach.

Better get one of the undercover guys to place a pick up order. I don't think any pizza place is delivering there.

Losers. They thought they'd be badass and no one would talk back to them because they've had a couple weeks of pathetic training.
LA and MN leading the way on how to deal with these fascist brown shit fucks.
I wonder how effective leaf blowers are for turning back pepper spray? Also keep a jug of water with baby shampoo in it just in case it gets in your eyes (don't rub them, just rinse asap).

Good. This should be happening nonstop. Fuck these fascists.
Hacksaw@lemmy.ca · 34 pts · 195d
I'm so happy to see people fighting back! It hurts to watch videos where people are stolen in front of massive crowds who only yell and whistle.
I know it's scary to fight against armed fascists. I'm not saying peaceful protestors must do more and risk more. I support everyone who acts against fascists regardless of their preferred means of fighting.
I'm just glad more people are getting brave enough to fight physically like this in some places now.

A lot of people will mock dual shielding, but it's actually a viable strategy. Yes, shield bonuses don't stack, but a lot of shield based attacks remove the shield bonus to AC, so having two shields allows you to specialize with one item type for both offense and defense.
justsomeguy@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 195d
Think of the fat rolls though.
chicken@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 3 pts · 195d
IIRC the game Dungeons of Dredmor allows shield dual wielding as a viable build
athatet@lemmy.zip · 1 pts · 194d
If you play as a spider person you can rock 5 shields and a sword and basically nothing can hit you.

ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 195d
Others probably mocked his skill progression choices, especially when he went raiding and his DPS sucked. But I bet he felt like those were points well spent during this incident.

He was holding a shield for another who then came back and took it later in the video.
Zombiepirate@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 195d
Even one of those would be a really stupid shield to bring to a melee. You've got no mobility if you're resting a panel on the ground.
But these guys aren't the smartest tools in the fridge.

I was playing an old Nintendo DS video game (Broken Sword) recently and a conversation between two characters went like this. "Who are you?", "You might say that I am a man who stands for truth and justice.", "Oh thank God. I thought you were the police!".
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today · 25 pts · 195d
They thought they'd be big badasses, and all those liberal removeds would bow down to their might...
And instead they are pissing their pants against an enormous, ferocious mob of righteously indignant AMERICANS.
There are 3000 ICE Apes in Minneapolis, with a population of over 400,000 citizens, every one of whom DESPISES them. That holds true in EVERY city in America.
Make them fear US, not the other way around. All the way to the TOP.
Fedizen@lemmy.world · 21 pts · 195d
Every ICE building should be a garbage dump. Make them spend all their funds on garbage collectors and cleanup crews instead of kidnapping kids to put in for profit child prisons

Could be normal cops. LA cops have a terrible reputation even compared to other cops and LAPD likely has been backing and supporting ICE both institutionally and on a personal level.

One guy just looks like he left his desk filing TPS reports to come make a shield line but got caught on the wrong side and someone said here hold this.

It's nuts how angry Republicans get at scenes like this, when January 6th happened and they are fine with how everything turned out.
At first it was "BLM" in disguise at the capital... Then the evidence was overwhelming that it was just violent Trump fans. Then Trump pardoned every single one of them.
They were way, way more violent than what we're seeing here, too. I'm sure we've all seen those videos.
itistime@infosec.pub · 2 pts · 194d
Oh, my dad will hear about it through his friends and talk radio. He will internalize that we need to die for it.
Then later on he’ll express that he hopes they don’t fell the remaining old growth trees in the local park. The MAGA workers there hate the leaf cleanup that they unnecessarily do. They have felled many old growth hardwood trees with disdain. Then I have to explain to him again that the primary group of people who want to preserve those trees are going to be killed by him and people like him.
No Dad, you won’t have nice things. You dumb shit!

This reminds me of a joke. If you give a man a fire you can keep him warm for a day, but set a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life. It's a metaphor or something.
BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works · 7 pts · 194d
The claim that ICE were scared may be true, but only because these guys seems so inexplicably under equipped and poorly lead.
Maybe the "police" in this clip had orders to deescalate. But from what I've seen ICE will use physical violence and tear gas at far less. Maybe they had no gas, which would go along with some of the shields looking like office supplies from Temu. Maybe the leadership was ineffective on a tactical level. I mean the protestors were throwing, what looks to me like, cardboard boxes and other light items. Organizing grabbing a protestor should be easy, but these guys just kept retreating.
Is this what you get when you give every police academy reject 30k USD, a badge and gun?

Is this actually ICE? Is it BOP? I don't think it's LAPD because I saw a vest that said "federal agent"
Reminder that the guys that shot Alex Pretti were CBP. Abolishing ICE isn't enough.

Can people pepper spray them? Or at leadt, throw some liquid dogshit or smth

Not without being charged with assaulting an officer.
This doesn't mean I disagree with your question

Well on the video people are throwing stuff on them, so i dont how a pile pf dogshit would somehow be different
FudgyMcTubbs@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 195d
Well the answer is you CAN do anything, but you likely will get shot/choked to death/your head smashed in and blamed on you. Your best bet is to peacefully assemble in opposition if you dont want to get hurt, and even then ymmv.
Aljernon@lemmy.today · 5 pts · 195d
If you don't want to get hurt, the best option is to be supported by heavily armed calm protestors. Unarmed protests have been repeatedly attacked by out of control police and ICE.
