The Whipple Federal Building has become both a staging ground for immigration agents and a hub for demonstrations against the crackdown in the Twin Cities.
Notice how it is local cops doing ICE’s bidding
Since when are people expecting local cops to be allies?
I don’t think anyone is expecting them to. They are probably hoping they will though. I don’t even live there, but I have heard their leaders say things that sound like they would use the police to protect them. I don’t know if they actually want to or not, and the police aren’t cooperating, or if it was just words. I’m sure most people expect the police to do what they always do though regardless.
The mayor and the governor say things that sound like they are outrages by ICE but I guess they can’t or won’t get the police to side with the law abiding residents who pay their checks.
Reminder: police protect property, not people. They are not your friend or savior.
Typically right before they get fucked by them.
It makes me wonder why the coppers don’t just gun down everyone else in their cities and “confiscate” the real estate and resources for themselves.
Probably because they’d have nothing to do with all the real estate and resources if they took it for themselves?
That’s like asking why the managers don’t just kill all the workers…who would do the work lol
Simple. They can claim all the houses and sell the surplus for liquidity. Alternatively, they can rent out the space for visitors. This means they can all become millionaires within the week.
Sell them to who? Who will want to live somewhere the cops just slaughtered everyone lol
Being a millionaire means nothing if your currency turns into Zimbabwe money and it costs 50million dollars to buy a burger
You are quite literally not thinking this through at all
Aquaman might be in the market for a house.
I think you underestimate how dumb the typical American is. Many will happily buy land in a city that got wiped out by their cops.
I’m not sure you’re thinking at all
Do you know how easy it is to scam Americans out of their hard earned money? It’s very easy, because they’re very gullible. And having actual real estate to sell makes it even easier.
Bullies are cowards. If they kill off the easy prey, they’re afraid the other pigs will kill them.
