ICE Raids California Cannabis Farm, Sparks Protest and Clashes With National Guard
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers raided Glasshouse Farms, a large marijuana cultivation site in Carpinteria, California, Thursday morning, leading to a tense standoff with protesters and a deployment of the National Guard. The raid occurred around 10:20 a.m. at the farm’s location ...
The National Guard left shortly after 1 p.m., once protesters approached with their hands raised in the air.
So, you treat the National Guard the same as a black bear? Just make yourself appear larger and they will leave.
In France, when they piss of the farmers, they protest by bringing the farm equipment to them. Some are loaded with poop.
The difference is that the French have spines
Americans are yellow, cheeseburger eating, surrender monkeys....!
My french friend told me that the dairy farmers once protested by dumping a massive amount of milk on the streets of Paris one time. Apparently the smell was..... Well you can imagine.
The French know how to protest.
Unless you're a clinate portestor in France, then you're a terrorist and treated as such. Farmer protestors are a.protected species world wide. eg the UK

Sunak leads a government that has introduced the most draconian anti-protest laws in our democratic history. These laws are deployed exclusively against official enemies: environmental campaigners, republicans, feminists, Muslims. If you belong to one of these groups and you block a road, you might go to prison. If you are a farmer and you block a road, the prime minister might join you.
2019 the French destroyed 60% of all speed cameras in the country in protest to raising fuel taxes,
flock cameras should be next
In Northern Ireland they load them with fuel
Same here in the Netherlands.
Another reason to not like the militarization of law enforcement. There were no pictures of guardsmen. Does that mean only federal agents were there and nobody realized? The line between the military and law enforcement is no longer a blur, it's a fucking mosaic.
That was always how it was going to go. Governments eo what they have the power to do
And the American Gestapo violently assaulted American citizens there and murdered someone too.
Wow, I don't know why they keep saying "we're unarmed"... people start open carrying at these protests. You want them to back off and leave? You want to not get shot with rubber bullets? These SS members are doing that shit because they know there won't be any force returned to them. If this crowd showed up armed, they would have left a long time ago.
No. I keep hearing this line of rhetoric and it's stupid.
It's what Magats want.
The national guardsmen? Military in general? Yeah they're some fucked up folk in there who get off on killing. But the majority just want to do whatever the fuck they've been trained to do, and shooting unarmed Americans isn't that.
Kent State was a long ass time ago, and nowadays one round from a protestor would create a massacre.
For that to work, you need enough firepower to actually win. Anything short, and it will be a bloodbath, on your side.
By approaching while very obviously not being a threat, it jamms their training, and forces them to think. Once they are thinking, they likely REALLY don't want to be the ones to start shooting at American protesters.
I think you misspelled “there would have been a bloodbath.”
uh oh, ongoing!
It's still Police in helicopter
This is terrible news. Fifteen percent off if I order online, I missed out on a decent bargain.
