This was a mid-afternoon march with the Unions. It was peaceful and respectful until ICE got insecure and decided to be dicks about it. No warnings either.

I've been wondering if it is time to buy a gas mask. Seems like it will need to be standard issue for protestors soon.

Obviously law enforcement, apparently (according to other comments) federal - which would include ICE - did this.

Just for the record, they aren't really paramilitary. Security services that are militarized yes. Paramilitary will be like proudboys and 3 percenters and their ilk as they are tooled by the admin to persecute their opponents, critics, etc.

Just for the record, the proudboys, 3 percenters, etcetera are giving 47 days of training to join this non military arm of the regime.

Both of those explanations back my interpretation up. I know you guys all call them that, it's not accurate, just as is was not accurate for everyone to call Au Saun Su Kyi Myannamars "de facto" leader, she was the de jure leader, a leader in law not fact, not opposite that in the former.

Show me how ICE is part of the US military.

They're specifically avoiding making them military to avoid UCMJ.

That’s who they’re hiring to fill out these positions though, proud boy’s and white supremacists

The issue is OP calling them “invaders,” when they were created 22 years ago to do this.

They were created to fire on peaceful protest marches?
