First, this is straight up Nazi secret police stuff. Second how did the court know these guys weren’t confederates of the folks in court intending a jail break. Where the FUCK were the bailiffs in this unlawful seizure?
So three men just kidnapped a dude.
They need to be banned from doing this in plain clothes. At minumim. At best ICE needs to be abolished.
At best ICE and DHS officials should be tried in a Nuremberg style court.
They need to be arrested as attempted kidnappers or shot if they don’t surrender. Then they need to be prosecuted as kidnappers.
Just figure out their names and living places. Once the shit is over, hunt them. All of them. And do whatever you like with them.
Questioning the security of the courthouse if you can just do that
The knock-on effect of this now would discourage undocumented migrants even just trying to engage with the legal system, being a witness or even reporting on crimes. For people on the fringes of a society it could lead to even worse exploitation and marginalization
Working as intended
While we aren’t seeing it now, it will be a matter of time before those marginalized people start packing and start shooting. Especially when they realize it is a fate worse than death or even just death of they comply.

What alarmed Nicholas Reppucci, head of the Charlottesville Office of the Public Defender, is that the enforcers called in to detain the two men in the city Tuesday morning were wearing plain clothes and did not display badges or arrest warrants.
Presumably, the courthouse is filled with cops and others with arrest authority, so why did they allow two men in plainclothes without badges or warrants leave with two people?
If the DOGE pirates had been gunned down in the first lobby the invaded, it would have ended there, or at least gone down a different path.
We should not be normalizing this behavior, and setting precedents. Without a badge, you will not be listened to, and you will leave the building immediately. Without a warrant, you will not be putting your hands on any person. If you attempt to bypass either requirement, you will be arrested. And if you attempt to do enforce your demands by force, you will be shot.
I wish they did have the guts to shoot the DOGE team. Especially since the DOGE goons have literally dragged people out and probably physically assaulted others.
On the plus side, if anybody reading this ever has reason to think that they might need to go into a police station and remove someone being held there, apparently if you and a friend or two look sufficiently the part, you can just walk in, in plainclothes, and claim to be Homeland Security, and just… take a dude and leave.

I mean, isn’t this the exact scenario they wrote in the Second Amendment for? Can’t say this reaction is surprising given it’s at the roots of the country and extensively defended by the Founding Fathers

Yeah, to some things they are

No, they haven’t helped either.
When they are disappearing people with no due process, the only logical response is violence. Gtfo of here with that dumb shit.
I think I’m going to have to seriously think about packing heat on regular basis for the exact scenario the 2nd amendment was written to cover.
Not a bad idea, at this point. Just keep it at home, and only have it to defend yourself or others. It is always morally correct to stop a Gestapo agent through any means necessary.

I’ve been seeing “Americans are pussies for not rising up” and “you won’t vote yourselves out of this situation” on here for months… Which is it? Make up your fucking mind, internet.
It’s just the normal anti-American sentiment from fringe idiots around the globe. Anything that has to do with America or the people from there are bad, evil, and needs to be shunned and mocked. Don’t give this guy any weight as a popular opinion from the internet.

It has nothing to do with “chosen” and everything to do with common sense. Wtf would YOU do if a couple of dudes came up to you neighbor, grabbed them and walked off with no explanation or identification? Just shrug, and go about your day? Because that’s what you’re insinuating with this idiotic line of reasoning you’re going down.

perhaps you should actually read what he said there instead of jumping to insane conclusions
Imagine trusting the government this much
If you actually read the second amendment, its whole purpose is to keep the government in check.
Yeah, funny how the boot lickers forget their whole wet dream of being the ones that rise up, means they need to rebel against the tyrant Trump and his dumbshit sycophants.

It’s probably the gesta- I mean ICE

It’s horrifying to see so many incidents of kidnapping in courtrooms. I can’t imagine a more blatant and clear example of subversion of the legal judicial process.
There would be no reason to remove them from a courtroom if you believed the court would come to the same conclusions they have. So the logical explanation is that they know that what they’re doing illegal and that these people they’re snatching haven’t actually done anything wrong. It’s shameful that we’ve allowed this to happen in our country and frankly, it’s embarrassing that this is what the once great USA has stooped to.
The authorities are assholes. They go for schools and churches and hospitals and courtrooms. They won’t bother with rape cases unless they’re an easy slam dunk. They hold grudges and weaponize their power over people they don’t like. They won’t target gang members when uneducated immigrants are so much easier.

Whatever happened to the Fourth Amendment? If they’re not even bothering to uphold the Constitution in a courthouse you guys are well and truly fucked.
The constitution has not existed since 911. I am not sure why people still believe in it. Even Santa Claus is more plausible to exist.

Is this exactly the kind of stuff 2A was supposed to have solved? What were the half a billion guns for?
A good portion of the 2A fetishists in this country love jackbooted authoritarianism as long as it’s aimed at the correct demographic.
They love the fantasy of being a plucky revolutionary, but in reality they are the ones helping the boot come down.
its called ammosexuals,people who fetishized and fantasize about a scenario where they shoot people, any excuse will do. i seen a video of a poc right winger, “climaxing” over the thought of shooting someone in an unlikely scenario. it was the cringiest thing.
but we can change that any time. change the demographic by arming yourself and not being one of those people.
Way ahead of you there.
Guns are for the tyranny of green energy and gay marriage. This is what they voted for.

Sounds an awful lot like kidnapping. So then the question becomes: why didn’t the court officers or local police arrest the so-called “ICE agents”? Up to and including firing on the assailants, if necessary? Because if you don’t show your badge, and you can’t back it up, you are not who you say you are. And that becomes broad-ass daylight kidnapping. And the actual uniformed officers did nothing (I know why they did nothing - the call is coming from inside the house).
did people not remember trump had the same nameless goons in his first admin when kindapping people.
Sure, but this is frankly another level. Snatching protesters off the street is fucked, for sure. Snatching people out of a courthouse, while they’re engaged with the legal system, out from under the noses of judges, attorneys, and court officers is absolutely another fucking level.
Because the people who work at the court were likely complicit.
Of course they wouldn’t tell the Public Defender, but that doesn’t mean that he bailiff or whatever, wasn’t in on it.
You mean that some of those that burn crosses are the same that work forces? 🤯
Sounds like a courthouse that is absolutely corrupt of the constitution and should be all held to treason. The U.S. brought back the firing squad, and the president preaches for no trials. If anyone knows me I love this country. That said, I’m fairly sure this country says we are required to shoot the judge by firing squad without a trial? Or maybe they havent been clear. Is it just racism based slaughter, or slaughter all around they support?
Well maybe we can use this and go get Lugi. Just claim to be ICE and maybe the courts let us get him, thinking we going deport him to El Salvador.
Hey, if it’s stupid but it works, it’s not that stupid.
Maybe shoot kidnappers? Amazing how often your guns are used to kill school children and how rarely to fight injustice.
A comment almost exactly like this got me permabanned from reddit. It’s like they’re telling us who’s side they’re on.
Years ago I was site-wide banned for “multiple false reporting” or something for reporting comments that advocated blanket murdering protesters and black people related to BLM protests. These comments are probably still there while antifascist users and subs are banned regularly.
I mean… they’ve been pretty clear about it for several years now?
You cannot hypothesize about shooting a person attacking your child but you can have several subs dedicated to cheering for the death of conscripted Russian soldiers. The cool part is that it was a 3 day ban and when I appealed it, the ban became permanent.
That’s completely, unsurprisingly, typical.
I’m on my usual 2 day ban over some comment I can’t remember, but probably something about how the current admin is a cancerous growth, and should be treated accordingly.
So you’ve been banned more than once and you continue going back?

Shit posting is fun.
Maybe shoot kidnappers?
Normal people cannot legally carry firearms into a Court House.
Is there no law enforcements with weapons in your courts? And also what about the kidnappers on the streets? Have any gotten shot so far?
Iknow people simply do not want to risk their life and thats fair but i wonder about the use scenario for all these weapons you guys own and i do not understand why besides having a fetish for weapons.
The problem is that most of the weapon fetishists are on the side of the fascists.
The fetishists yes, but to anyone thinking otherwise mostly all the leftists I know are strapped. It’s just an issue of organization.
To add on to what @[email protected] and @[email protected] said, the primary use-case for personal firearms in the US outside of hobby/hunting in day-to-day is self-defense, and as a last resort.
Even with a concealed carry permit, most states’ concealed carry laws state that you can only use your weapon if you have no method of retreat, and retreat should always be the first option. (Rightly so.)
Second problem that this seething pile of shit administration has created, is even if you were cornered, no way out, and used a gun to defend yourself, as soon as they say (real, fake, made up, or retroactively) “oh that was a Federal agent” you’re now looking at having to deal with the Federal “justice” system, which is currently a big lying pile of shit that does whatever it wants with no regard for any life. (State and local laws are, for the most part, still functioning correctly.)
So basically, a death-and/or-El-Salvador concentration camp sentence for the person-that-would-be-helping.
Signing up as a rogue citizen to defend others, as a firearm owner, is at minimum legal fees, possible loss of firearms, possible jail time, or these days, possible disappearing.
You basically have to be in a mental state of writing off your own life to do such an act. If we are at that point, we’re probably in civil war.
There’s not cowboy justice in modern America, most of the time, surprisingly. Only Federal cowboy injustice.
Closest that could be maybe done is if a group of armed citizens in a state where open-carry is legal set up groups to protect those being targeted by the Nazis just outside the legal land boundary of the courts. Specifically because officers (read: thugs) are trained to shoot first and ask questions later. You’d need a mass of armed citizens, not touching their firearms, so the thugs know they’re outnumbered and no matter how tiny-penis-brain they are, they know they’ll probably come out dead if they escalate. Still very risky, could easily escalate as the thugs are also trained to purposely aggravate citizens so the citizens will make a mistake and the thugs can “apply the law” (do whatever they want with no consequences) as they see fit. This would be the tipping point Mango Mussolini wants to declare Martial Law across the US, and then we’re back to the civil war thing. All the rules change at that point, and the perceived “authority” that the ICE cowards think they have disappears, but we’re also looking at massive loss of life, no matter how it plays out. Unlike the Nazis, most Americans value life.
It sucks, right? When a majority of a country follows its laws, but they’re dealing with human trash in power that can mutate it at-will with almost god-mode powers, it becomes infinitely more complex to save the People and Democracy. They’ve done a good job stacking the deck in favor of Tyranny.
So basically, a death-and/or-El-Salvador concentration camp sentence for the person-that-would-be-helping
Point of correction here. A sentence to the El Salvador Concentration Camps IS a death sentence. The fact that there’s currently no tangible proof that prisoner executions are happening is about the same as see a giant plume of thick black smoke rising off the city tire dump and saying that there’s currently no tangible evidence that the fucker’s burning.
Almost 100% guaranteed that if anyone eventually manages to investigate it properly there will be a whole bunch of mass graves.The or was more from hope at this point, honestly. Although we really need a first-world free nation to stop that El Salvador shit. Unfortunately, that will probably be the trigger for WWIII the morons in the US federal government are hoping for.
Totally understand.
Yeah, it would take almost literally the whole rest of the world to stand up to the US. The military superiority difference between the US and everyone else is… problematic. The US was always a bit of a bully as an ally, and part of the disparity is the fault of the rest of us, allowing the US to take the bulk of defence burden, and mil-tech development. It’s turned allies into perceived client States in the view of people like Trump.
So yeah, if the only way to get Trump pulled up on this fascist shit is to have a global united front, and threaten WW3? We had better hope that there’s enough people in the US military chain of command who recognise, and honour, that the oath they swore is to the constitution, and to protect it from threats foreign and domestic…and not an oath to Trump with the promise of Jackbooting the necks of the rest of the world. Otherwise, as the quote that’s often attributed to Einstein goes:
I don’t know what weapons might be used in World War III. But there isn’t any doubt what weapons will be used in World War IV…
Stone spears…
Is there no law enforcements with weapons in your courts?
American cops don’t protect American people. First and foremost, they protect their own. Beyond that, they protect the establishment that gives them their authority.
And money. They absolutely protect people with money.
The Venn diagram of gun fetishists and the people still cheering for Trump is nearly a circle.
I like to shoot far off cans, bottles, and targets out in the country. I’ve never shot an animal (that I know of) or a person (pretty confident about that one) and if there was some rabble-rousing going on and I was for some reason armed and loaded I don’t have the mental capacity nor the confidence to decide who lives and dies. Just because I own guns doesn’t mean I’m your defender. You should go buy a gun and become the justice decider you describe. Become the change you want to see.
What is happening is abhorrent. Morons with guns aren’t the answer.
Not possible in my country. I just sometimes have the feeling that americans accept more shit from their government and law enforcement BECAUSE they have loads of weapons and it gives this wrong sense of security, that you are able to rise up against authority if push comes to shove. Only that it will never be quite bad enough to risk your own life. And i understand that. Still sad to see.
…i wonder about the use scenario for all these weapons you guys own and i do not understand why besides having a fetish for weapons.
The vast majority of guns are owned by people who lean far, far right. The use scenario for most of them is a fantastical case where strangers with dark complexions threaten their homes and families and they suddenly turn into Rambo or the Punisher and then shoot all the bad guys.
Of course this never happens because these very people are honestly cowards who are too scared to go to the grocery store with their weapon. If something really dangerous happens you’d better not be between them and the nearest exit because they will shoot you if you block them while they’re running away. Well, unless you’re armed. In that case, they’ll run from you too.
Were you rubbing your nipples when you wrote this? You sound like a MAGAt fantasizing about trans Mexicans.
That’s probably because I’m essentially talking about MAGAts fantasizing about getting to use their 2nd Amendment rights.
Even if they could, anyone thinking they’re going to be able to shoot their way out of being abducted by the gestapo will have a very rude awakening.
Still better to be killed in the street than renditioned to America’s concentration camp in El Salvador
If that’s your goal, yes, a gun would be effective.
Is your goal something other than doing better than being renditioned to America’s concentration camp in El Salvador?
When people say “second amendment!” about this stuff they’re usually talking about overthrowing tyranny somehow, not suicide by ICE.
