looks like the urban warfare training grounds the military uses for counter-terrorist MOUT training, which isn't surprising considering the militarization of the police
anyone else feeling some blowback??
There are copaganda billboards everywhere in the city. Most people in Chicago still hate the cops, though, and they're having a tough time making their recruiting quota.

Which is honestly crazy with the stupidly high salaries they're paying. It really says a lot how much people hate them
First year after the academy is like 80k. It's absolutely ridiculous
At retirement they make around $200,000 even if they are in a suburban or rural area. They retire 5+ years earlier than everyone else and their pension is like half their salary for the rest of their lives.
The USA has armies of these hogs. I am more and more convinced that the federal government is basically not real, and that the actual apparatus of power in the US is this organized mafia cartel state. 2020 protests proved that mayors could not control their police, who often ignored orders and legal requirements. In Seattle the mayor instituted a tear gas moratorium and the cops broke it that night openly. Politicians can play theater and pretend to wield power, but when the rubber meets the road the cops enforce it or don’t.
These fat hogs get a massive revenue of hundreds of billions of dollars, get open immunity against all crime & even the bourgeois fear their guard swine that have run rampant, the boars have gone feral. These hogs have eaten too well and gotten too fat for their masters, enjoyed too much freedom and gotten addicted to it. January fourth wasn’t a coup at all, it was just a pig day on strike. They let their friends in to terrorize the nerdy congressmen to remind them who wields power.

they held the mayor of NYC's daughter hostage and nobody talks about it. If it wasn't for the cop ran pedo house that was accidentally found in Milwaukee, it'd be the craziest shit from 2020 we just pretend didn't matter

I would disagree with this to an extent because the moment that tailgate got too close to a member of congress, they dump a mine's worth of lead into a woman. Especially with the fact it was organized by a FBI informant, and how it's been used politically, I think it's much more likely to be an inside job that justifies the police after a year of them showing that they are just the gestapo. But both get us to the same place so it's a pedantic difference.
True Capitol Police are kind of a different entity than the police at large, I’m not entirely sold on my own theory about that particular event. Does seem like there was spook shit going with the airforce psyops officers leading a charge as well.
My overall point stands though, I think people (at least mainstream discourse) vastly overestimate how much power politicians and bureaucrats wield and vastly underestimate that of capital, the legal machine, the thumb class of copoids and prison guards & the spooks. It seems the former groups get blamed for everything bad about government.

that was secret service, not capitol pigs. also he only shot babbit once, he didn't dump a mine's worth a led into her. i've seen the footage. i think it's funny though, that it was enough to stop them dead in their tracks. if they really wanted to keep going through those doors they could have. that secret service guy would have run out of ammo pretty quick.
no worries. i find it interesting that capitol pigs let them in but then secret service was willing to use lethal force. It really shows you that the so called "deep state" isn't even all that coordinated
Did anything end up happening with that Milwaukee stuff? I remember watching it happen and then the building burning down under mysterious circumstances.
nope, might as well just never happened, and if you bring it up, most liberals will talk to you like you just said infowars shit

That wasn't the DC Police, that was the US Capitol Police. IDK if it matters, but different departments with different focuses.
I don't think the cops understood that the mob would turn on them. They really believed the back the blue shit. But then I have no idea what was happening on the ground vs what was being decided at the strategic level, what level of cooperation there was between departments, and who might have got hung out to dry for plausible deniability.

That was the wildlest thing about Jan 6 to me. The police so obviously just... didn't show up. They hung a couple of officers out to dry, but even those guys thought they were on the same team as the hogs until they tried to stop the hogs from entering the building and started getting the shit kicked out of them.
And then a week later Congress is applauding the brave and selfless DC Police blah blah blah blah blah.
they’re having a tough time making their recruiting quota.
The nationwide loss of cops to attrition is the only good thing happening this decade. Idk if we're winning that fight but we're seeing real progress.
How exactly did Lightfoot manage to become mayor when everyone seems to fucking hate her.
Why do conservatives even hate her? She seems to give them everything they want lol. Are they seriously that stupid to believe that she hates cops and love gangsters or is it all just a grift to rile up the base
Why do conservatives even hate her?
I dunno, because she's a black woman probably? Conservatives somehow manage to always be angry despite getting just about everything they want from politicians.
maybe you can physically remove them to put them out of their misery
cop + dem machine + "she's a lesbian, that means she can't be that bad!"
fucking SS goblin
The 2019 Mayoral election was nuts. Nine candidates received at least 5% of the vote, so Lightfoot and Preckwinkle went to the general on 17 and 16%, respectively. Libs beating themselves off at the prospect of voting for a black lesbian were more than enough to beat the soda tax lady.
I was just talking about this kind of grift yesterday. The school district announced a budget shortfall, said faculty needed to tighten their belts... then the very next page of the newsletter announced the building of a very important sportsball stadium for the most prestigious :us-foreign-policy: high school in the district... for the same price as the shortfall. :agony-4horsemen:
Interesting how the neighborhood appears to only be made up of low income apartments 🤔
Faustian bargain: you get a free house but it's in the cop training neighborhood
Meanwhile the cop who murdered Anthony Alvarez is going to be back on the street tomorrow after a 20 day suspension.
Lol building a better town for the pigs to larp in than for the people to live in. Is there a better example for :amerikkka: policy?
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
