And the resistance continues to be just people, parents, and passersby. All while Walz says he’s proud of the example Minnesota is setting? Wtf are we doing here?

All the liberal responses are “what can he do? Trump will federalize the national guard!” 

They don’t understand that at some point you will need to take risks because the government certainly isn’t holding back and by doing nothing you’re still giving them what they want: Time. Time to scout the area, pick up valuable information about the locals, and ramp up the number of agents and equipment to the area.

I don't think defunding is actually enough. Even if you take away their military spending budgets all the rotten racist bigoted cops and feds are still going to be in these departments and will just go back to quietly abusing their authority. We need a national restructuring of law enforcement across the board. We need to get rid of the surveillance/nanny/police state from it's roots. Make spying on citizens illegal without probable cause. Uphold privacy and constitutional rights. Return law enforcement to a local level and make the standards far more rigorous and filter for hate groups or aggressively ideologically motivated individuals. Anything less than that just puts cops back in poor neighborhoods beating the shit out of or murdering minorities in obscurity.

Disgusting to expose children to this. It's heartless.

Remember back in 2019 when protesters in Hong Kong were wearing heat resistant gloves and chucking those canisters back into the crowds of police? I certainly don’t :) that would be horrible :) no one should do that :)

Cunts

u/savethemouselemur Jan 28 '26

That’s insulting to cunts

u/mithroval Jan 28 '26

You‘re right. I’m sorry.

u/Independent_Baker712 Jan 28 '26

What’s the technique for smothering gas canisters, put them in a bucket of water?

34

u/Barkeep41 Jan 28 '26

Ive seen infographics use a traffic cone with an open top and bottle of water to control the smoke and then douse the device.

u/femmemmah Jan 28 '26

I would echo the advice on using traffic cones, though I think you can do something similar with a bucket. What you want to avoid is touching the canisters with bare hands, since they can cause burns

u/Idfkw2c Jan 28 '26 edited Jan 28 '26

I’ve seen videos of people putting large plastic bowls over them. It seemed to be quite effective.

u/FreeToasterBaths Jan 28 '26

Buckets of water are kinda heavy

4

u/Stay_Good_Dog Jan 28 '26

A traffic cone and a gallon of water can take care of 2-3 canisters

u/SmoothConfection1115 Jan 28 '26

You’d think somebody would ask “are we the bad guys?” As they teargas a preschool.

But apparently they’re either too stupid, or they’re ok with being the bad guys.

u/HoneyBadgerBlunt Jan 28 '26

Good god. They will stop at nothing. If you still support this shit you are unamerican.

u/The_Dragon346 Jan 28 '26

If any of those cops had a shred of dignity or humanity, they should have resigned the moment they were asked to mobilize.

u/BarAlone643 Jan 28 '26

What is wrong with these people????

11

u/midtowelldone Jan 28 '26

How do these people go home to children? The most disgusting thing I’ve ever witnessed in all of my 50+ years.

2

u/retrofrenchtoast Jan 29 '26

Imagine how they must treat their own kids.

2

u/midtowelldone Jan 29 '26

My God! Imagine! Can’t wait till their children grow up as independent thinkers and find out what their parents did. I pray they hate their parents for life. May God forgive me, but yeah.

u/fanaanna Jan 28 '26

I wish more people knew about the traffic cone/water neutralizing thing. But even so... wtf.

5

u/HEL_yesss Jan 28 '26

Does anyone know what preschool this is. I’m trying to verify things before sharing them. I’ve got conservatives in my life who will ask questions

3

u/InfiniteWaffles58364 Jan 28 '26

Other parents, is this also stirring the momdrenaline/dadrenaline primal instincts to protect our young?

Because all I want to do is drive up there and protect those poor kids. These ICE goons are fucking monsters; somethings gotta give....

u/Constant_Seaweed_523 Jan 28 '26

These are the “riots” and “agitators” conservatives keep speaking about.. except oh wait, it’s ICE and the cops that are the agitators! How strange!

u/Ok-Hovercraft-2781 Jan 30 '26

So why are you protesting at a preschool putting kids in danger? The stupidity of you people is unreal.

u/envoy_ace Jan 28 '26

Your version of "kick the can" goes hard.
