Let's make this absolutely clear!

These thugs are not “police officers”, “police agents”, “law enforcement officers” or “peace officers”!

They are merely a bunch of idiots who think since Trump hired them to do his crime bidding acts.

Any police candidate goes through rigorous background checks, mental readiness and a long list of training requirements to evaluate the preparation of their willingness to be an officer.

It take a lot more than a couple of weeks to a couple of months training to be an effective officer and this here is nothing short of mindless minimum of making a thug into a criminal.

Even the military has more training than these goons.

I wish everyone would stop saying that they are police officers. They are wannabe with a badge and minimum authority. I’m betting that most of them were J-6 insurrection rioters?

That is way I look at these people “thugs with a badge and a gun, fake police”!

Training isn't the issue. The institutions are.

The states are going to have to stand up to the federal government and arrest ICE agents for assault when the agents assault residents of the state.

dog shit gangs like the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers as well as the J6 mob and whatever other cousin-humping degenerate scum they manage to scrape off the sidewalk.
