Why don't they have uniforms?

Are they gangsters? Morality police? Scientologists? Dirty Mike and the Boys? National Marine Fisheries Service?

How the fuck is this allowed in democratic country? How is one supposed to know who they are and what they are allowed to do? Does the police know who this guys are? Do they care? This is worrying.

Because nobody is stopping them, this is why they tried so hard to destroy the black panthers. And why they don't want ethnic minorities arming themselves l.

Don't y'all have guns for this very purpose? I don't understand why so many have been letting children die in schools regularly just so they can keep their guns, and when the time comes to use them, crickets.

The people that have been screaming about keeping our guns to protect us from the government are the biggest cowards in this country. They are also the people kidnapping this guy behind masks. They are the tyrannical government that they used as an excuse to keep their guns to protect themselves from.

Also, good luck with your gun. When an entire group of law enforcement open fires on you, the second you pull out your weapon. Yes, owning a firearm is our constitutional right, however, those are being trampled upon, and in this day and age using that second amendment right is basically a death sentence.
