Then start arresting them. Even if you can only hold them for 24 hours and they go free, it starts to send a message and gets them off the street.

Maybe he could like police his streets then? Removing thugs with guns is, like, his job.
This is CRAZY! And as the Chief of Police I want to say it's HORRIBLE that UNKNOWN, MASKED, ARMED MEN are MURDERING AMERICANS IN THE STREETS! It's BAD! I want you to KNOW this because I'm NOT going to Arrest or in ANY way shape or form slow Down these UNKNOWN DANGEROUS MURDERERS!
You should really put these posts on Twitter, you'll have a million followers cheering you on and agreeing with everything you say in no time while the joke goes so far over their head they wouldn't be able to see it with a telescope.
MAGAs are trying to blame the mayor and governor for not deploying the local PD to protect ICE Apes. There are 3000 ICE Apes, and 600 local cops. Are the ICE Apes such pussies that they can't protect themselves?
Or maybe they just want the locals around to act as scapegoats for their own incompetence.
Even the pigs be like "slow your fucking roll you psychos"
Hot air.
Are you going to act or just yap like a little dog? You're a chief of fucking police. Ohhhh, you don't actually care? Gotcha.
That's how all the politicians and authority figures have been acting. It's because in reality, he doesn't control his gang (the MPD).
His gang supports this shit but he's the public face of the gang and has to act like they aren't loving all of this. Mind you this is the same police force that kicked of BLM because of murdering a civilian.
They don't give a shit about human life and this is just fucking theater.
Edit: added some punctuation and fixed a typo to improve the sentence structure.
The cool part is how my mother voted for the asshole again, dissolving our relationship. /s
Fuck you, mom. You used to rock.
and we didn't shoot anyone
For some reason I don't believe this
Picture shared here recently shows MN as the 8th safest state in the US. Absolutely should not be there. They just want them there.
Rival gangs / warlords
Cops steal the power and responsibilities of community defense from the people, and nothing upsets them more than someone else showing them up. In fact, I imagine that police chiefs are far more distraught to hear that neighborhoods are organizing their own patrols and security networks than they are about the murders.
Ok then Brian, how about you and your department go oh I don't know do your jobs?
I'm tired of seeing cops and politicians on TV or twitter just ensuring they get a good sound bite and not actually do anything. It's like the Mayor of Minneapolis who is all "fuck ice" ok then bro, tell your police chief...literally this guy...to go arrest them and kick them out.
By themselves, they are outmanned and outgunned. There's been multiple stories about how they show up even with some order by a judge in hand and ICE/CBP just ignores them. From a practical perspective, they don't have much recourse if ICE/CBP ignores the law and has the force.
Deputize the community and ICE is handily outnumbered again. Mobilize the state's National Guard as observers.
We need to stand side by side with our judges and leos to enact our own force on these goons it sounds like.
As we saw in 2020, The Minneapolis PD doesn't have to shoot people to murder them.
You know,this is a scenario where the general public wouldn't mind you using your ACAB powers on ICE.
The public will cover for you. Use that shit.
"not sustainable", as if he's cool with it as long is it doesn't mess with his stats...
arrest the pedophile running the country if you are a cop
When the cops are (comparatively), the good guys...
Yeah, this is the amazing thing, to me. Sure, it's only words, and I have no doubt that the chief has cheerfully beaten plenty of Minneapolisonians senseless and taught the technique of police brutality & corruption to his employees. He's no good guy. You can tell by the badge. But I srsly can't remember seeing a top-level cop on camera calling out other cops.
It doesn't mean much, but it means some fraction of something.
All cops are irredeemable bastards. You don’t get to untraitor…
This cannot be a healthy attitude though. Like, a police force is one of the basic requirements of a society of even moderate size. The police suck much, much harder than they should, but I absolutely cannot believe that everybody working in law enforcement everywhere is an irredeemable cunt. That cannot be the correct take here
You seem to have developed a taste for boot, sailor. There is simply too much evidence that your take is not just complete bullshit, it's fucking dangerous.
Ok edgelord
How do you not constantly walk into walls with your eyes closed so tight?
Eh. I've met police. They've actually been helpful to me when I was on the receiving end of a home break in. They serve a purpose. A lot of them are racist, sexist, violent thugs. But their role is nonetheless essential, and some of them can be decent. An unpoliced society has been trialed multiple times. I am not aware of any attempts where it worked out.
All cops are not always bastards in all ways at all times, but ALL COPS ARE BASTARDS.
“Every society has the criminals it deserves.” ~’Red’ Emma Goldman
Time and energy are best spent on improving society not punishing those it left behind. Sorry about your stuff.
Tbf (and I have no dog in this fight other than:)
Home invasions aren't just about "stuff." Even if "they just want your TV bro" it's about no longer feeling safe and secure in your home where you "should" be able to (those of us home invaded and untrusting know that there's not really such thing as total safety, just relative safety, but most expect it even if it is naïve innocence.) What's more sometimes home invaders steal your TV, sometimes they're Richard Chase, B.T.K, The Nightstalker, some people get murdered or raped or both in their own home by an intruder. And even in cases of alleged gangstalking where someone(s) breaks in and moves shit around or leaves something rather than even taking anything, with the clear message "we can get in here, you're not safe." It's not about the "stuff."
Idk, maybe until your home gets broken into and your roommate gets pistol whipped and you're all too poor to go to the hospital so we just superglued his head back together (didn't work great, actually), you can't know how it feels and are just stuck in the materialist "stuff" mindset, but yeah it can really mentally fuck people up actually.
(Of course, the police still don't help with that as they always show up after, guns help.)
They didn’t say home invasion. But you keep all that info handy for when they do…
Other than that, what exactly is your point? Buy guns?
when I was on the receiving end of a home break in
So you just being pedantic, or what's good?
Other than that, what exactly is your point? Buy guns?
Well, yes. But also my main point is "you being a callous dickhead with 'sorry about your stuff'" just makes it clear you've got no clue how it feels and probably have only a tangential idea of what "empathy" is at best.
Well Internet stranger who knows nothing about me, I’ve lived a life of violence. I’ve been robbed (at home). I’ve been brutalized. I’ve been raped. I lived on the streets for years. So… perhaps I am callous but I’m sure as hell not ignorant to the plight of the average person. Sorry about your story, life is difficult and dangerous. Same as I’m sorry about the other blokes stuff. You want I should shed a tear real quick because we found another victim of this shitty society? No hired thug is going to change any of this. But we as people could build a better society that puts us first and capital last. Or let’s just say fuck it, buy guns, pretend cops are inevitable, and FTW amirite? I mean some days I’m on the fence…
No I agree the way to fix this in the end is societally, but yeah the way to protect yourself immediately is force, so either become One Punch Man or get strapped.
But as to the other stuff, well maybe you earnestly meant "sorry for your stuff" but it seemed (and often is used by others as in "it's just stuff" to minimize home invasion victims' experiences) as if it was sarcastic. If that's not the case, my apologies. If that is the case you have no clue what this person went through, like for many others it may have been more than just "stuff."
If I learned anything from the 2020 era... It's to not have hope that people have changed or will change.
I'm already to the point I believe USA is dead. Part of how we got here is our privileged naive culture and it saddens me that some people are only trying to go back to that false lifestyle of faux freedom and safety. They will fight trump only go back to the data mining, surveillance, categorized mass produced lifestyles that are made to herd the people into categories.
If USA was a computer, we need a new hard drive with a good Linux distro. This fight shouldn't be for a virus removal, or even a reformat to reinstall windows. If we do that we can expect the repetition of history.
