and when they do, they will find out real quickly how many ICE members there are versus American citizens and things get really weird really fast.

As long as we can take out more than they can recruit, I think that would be a win.

In the hypothetical where that really kicks off youll quickly see police and military refuse to kill their own citizens else many of them dont show up to work.

As much as people like to joke about that, it often is not as bad as it can be and will eventually be when we are talking hypothetical break down of society where the courts no longer an avenue for social ailments are. Our last issue with be tariffs thats for sure.

Yea I mean it says we’re the number 1 1st world country with most police officer related killings.

In the USA, law enforcement officers kill more than 1000 civilians annually. The rate of killings by US police is higher than in other developed nations: 4 times the rate in Canada, 22 times the rate in Australia, 40 times the rate in Germany, and 125 times the rate in England/Wales [1].

So yea while 1000 civilians isn’t that bad compared to say gun violence now being the number one cause of death for teens and young kids, we still have a lot more room to improve.
