I think the first time will be a bunch of protestors getting massacred but yeah, the response to that will be swift and universal. the libs will get involved when that happens and there may be a strike.
My money is on people getting disappeared. They're already using unmarked vans and unidentifiable uniforms to kidnap leftist organizers. That's already much of the way there.
I mean getting disappeared, as in the 70s-80s Southern Cone sense. Not just arrested, questioned, and released -- grabbed off the street and then never found again. To my knowledge that's not happening quite yet.
When the pigs start killing I doubt they're going to want to make it loud, big, and open. They know they can get away with killing someone here or there in public, but they don't know if the public will stomach a massacre. If something happens like that it'll likely come from some fascist militia, although the cops will probably know and look the other way.
yeah, that's definitely what they want to do but you're forgetting that cops are chuds at heart and itching to bash protestor skulls in and fill them full of lead. at some point, they're going to slip and massacre people because they can't control literally all of their roided out goons forever and that first time, it will be like the person who slipped gave permission to all the other cops to also unload. they'll re-exert control quickly but it will be too late at that point and the public backlash will be immense.

They want to do this, but they want to do it in an environment with no danger. It's super easy to get people ramped up to fight -- it's way harder to get people (even chuds) ramped up to potentially get grievously injured or die.
They don't want to start a war, because they're outnumbered and however roided out they are they know that wars lead to people shooting back. There are enough Iraq and Afghanistan veterans among them for cops to know how terrifying it is to be an occupying force in a city where some of the populace is out to kill you. They didn't sign up for that; they signed up to have an ultimately cushy job where they get to beat on a lone 19-year-old with a few of their buddies. They don't want a real fight, they want to be in control.
well yeah but you're assuming most of the cops / national guard are smart enough to think this through. I'm saying that they're rolling the dice every time they deploy force and it's a matter of time before they lose the roll and fuck up.
definitely no sympathy for pigs but this is just gonna make the crackdown much worse. this will be more intense than earlier this summer

I mean yeah, that's already happening. I'm saying the first time they use lethal force, they'll unload a hell of a lot of it all at once

Fair enough.
They were going to crack down literally no matter what people did lol.
Might as well get some revenge.
This also makes it more likely for cops to quit, which only ratchets up the pressure on those who remain. Plenty of them didn't sign up for this.

Gonna have to start wearing a greatcoat as we travel deeper into the coolzone.
i hate to say it but it was inevitable with how lmpd was prepping for this.
when our turn comes, we make no apologies for the terror.
don't help the state build their case. the police have been initiating all of the escalations.
