Drove away with unslashed tires, sad
Was thinking the same.
Where are the 13 year old troublemakers at? We used to throw bike locks on the bike cops wheels when we were kids. And they weren’t fucking terrorizing our neighborhood.
Get the kid with the crackhead parents whose been through the system a dozen times before puberty to do the dirty work, he’s in and out of the precinct in a couple hours.
Well the difference is that these freaks are much much more likely to arrest and/or just for you for doing stupid pranks like that than the bike cops in your neighborhood were.
Potato in the exhaust pipe! I learned that one from columbo
You gotta give the predator an avenue to escape, or they will escalate even more.
Simultaneously very heartening and incredibly frustrating to watch. The victim had to fight so fucking hard while everybody else was being incredibly passive and meek.
Shout-out to the girl in the black dress for being the bravest of all of them and showing how to be a proper menace.
Honestly, my thoughts too. It’s easy to be an arm chair activist and say what you would do (myself included) and an entirely other thing to actually intervene
Fucking awesome. We love you Chicago.
True courage against masked invaders violently kidnapping people on the streets of the USA. What a pathetic authority. Cowards. And so much restraint from fellow humans who want to do more to help but know they cannot against the thugs that showed up that day. Shows just how far the USA has fallen to satisfy a rapist felon president and all his billionaire puppet masters.
You got masked men, one in street clothes, one in gear I can buy on Amazon, attempting a kidnapping in broad fucking daylight. FFS, some masked rando this week just pointed a pepper-ball gun at a woman in the car next to him! For filming him. (Note here: No court of law will expect an average civilian to know the difference between a pepper-ball gun and a “real” gun. In any case, “less lethal” rounds can still be lethal. You saw a GUN.)
IANAL, but I know more than most about gun rights. I’m a liberal gun nut so it behooves me to understand these things best I can. I have watched hours of YouTube on various cases and how they played out.
PRO TIP: Self-defense laws are far more restrictive than most on the left or right understand. The technicalities, state to state, are rough to internalize. Most depend on some notion of “reasonable threat”. What did you see, what did you feel, was happening in the moment?
Remember that kid who shot the YouTube asshole in the mall? Everybody had an opinion when it happened. Here’s a respected GunTuber/lawyer’s brief on how and why he was found not guilty. You can get a taste of the complexity of state laws.
I am not aware of any state in the Union that prohibits one from shooting an unidentified, no uniform, no police lights, masked man threatening another person with a gun.
If you’re going to carry, you must read the actual law for your state. You must be aware of how cases in your state have played out. And you must be ready to die and end up in a concrete and steel box, for life, if you pull your weapon.
Would you like to know more? Check Massad Ayoub on YouTube. He strikes me as conservative\non-MAGA, but he keeps his mouth fucking shut on politics, just the facts ma’am. He was a cop for 30-years and has 300+ court cases under his belt as an expert witness in self-defense shootings. You could do worse than learn from him.
Sometimes I feel like being nihilistic and defeatist, then I see shit like this. The community fighting back.
I honestly don’t understand how these masked fucks are not getting shot
Would you shoot one? Probably not. I don’t mean it as a diss towards you it’s just not a thing one just does. You are either a psycho or very desperate if you can shoot someone and even though we all hate these people it’s not sth one just does.
or very desperate
With the way things are going…
This was one of the best displays of fuck Ice I’ve seen. Masked bandits kidnapping Innocents.
This is TERRIBLE! That people DIDNT let these Unidentified Men (MAYBE ICE!) take away this CLEARLY Very Dangerous Unarmed Overweight Man on the Verge of Tears who can’t really Speak English! HES OBVIOUSLY A TERRORIST (the Man NOT the Unidentified Kidnappers!)!
Fucking good
Conspiracy theorist in me says this was designed by ICE with the hope that the protesters would turn violent, giving Trump a legal excuse to send in the army.
I’m not in good physical shape, but I think I could have gotten handcuffs on that guy.
You’re not wrong, but that dude was the epitome of a gravy seal too. It’s a 50/50.
Gravy seal… lol, I feel this
Good fucking job!

buddy, are you in the wrong thread?
Sometime lemmy have a glitch that send a random comment to another thread
Lost Lemming
Still got upvotes
Someone should have shot them both
Bad idea strategically, though I agree it’s what they deserve. The whole reason Trump sent them to Chicago is to get violence to justify further intervention to get more violence to justify more intervention to have armed MAGAts oversee the 2026 election.

It’s a shame those pieces of shit didn’t get curb stomped. I can’t wait till it’s time to start really fighting back
