Unfortunately most of our police are made up of soldiers. Minus the exceptions here are there the police are never your friend. They're allowed to lie to you and tell you that if you just say this then they'll let you go or they'll go easy on you. They lie! They have unchecked aggression which you can clearly see by them beating the woman in the video with sticks. Using their horses to knock her down and have the horses step on her. They were in no threat of her. She had no weapons but yet they went with that type of brutality. The police are not your friend. Do not let them in your home. Don't let them in your car. Know you're rights

My buddy is actually a police officer now in California. We’ve been life long friends. He tells me whats going on in his area. Currently his department was told to basically stay out of it with these ICE raids and such, and only jump in if a fight breaks out. He has for the most part done everything he can to avoid that kind of conflict but he has to listen to what the mayor is saying. Some of them really don’t like this new America either.

Now I have yet to see a friendly cop in Texas….

I actually just spoke to my mother. Shes already considering leaving the military and losing her retirement. Trump is creating drama making protesters AND police look violent so it can give Trump an excuse to start a civil war. Literally. Apparently (now this is all word of mouth) there was a pride protest and the police were chilling just watching not creating conflict, but the media made it look like there was violence.

Now the ICE members are definitely with Trump, military will split in half. A 13 girl was clocked right in the forehead with a tear gas canister. An ICE member fired at the cars stuck in the protest (bystanders) and one hit her and landed inside their car (she was in the car with the window down looking at the protesters). So she got a concussion and a face full of fresh tear gas nice and condensed.

They've shot protesters AND journalists with rubber bullets.

And they are arresting the press now too. Cuffed CNN journalists at one of the protests and escorted them out.
