They’ve amassed missiles armed with warheads. Let that sink in and realize what they really are, because it’s not a force for immigration enforcement, it’s an army simping for Trump. They will be weaponized at a much greater scale in the future certainly.

    Maybe I’m not reading your tone correctly, but this seems to be really, REALLY downplaying the threat here, especially with the last line of “if they’re buying this other shit, let us know” like what they currently have access to isn’t bad enough for the threat to US civilians?

    I’m just wondering why you took this take. Again, unless i misread your tone here.

      So more than one thing can be evil at a time. Posting with a title that is clearly not even implied by the linked article is the kind of evil misinformation that got us in this mess. That is as close to a “tone” in what he wrote. It’s nowhere near extremly dismissive of anything. Doesn’t even mention anything about a threat.

        🤷‍♂️ I guess you’re right, but the take away I got from their last sentence was ICE buying more weapons isn’t something they are concerned about or want to hear about, unless its machine guns and hellfire missiles. That’s the dismissive part to me. They’re staying it’s not news worthy unless it’s an escalation from the weapons regular police departments already have.
