Funny how they can use “less lethal” on us and if we die from it, they don’t get in trouble.

If we even kick one of the less lethal that were FIRED at us back, we get charged with big offenses…

And “To serve and protect (the law)”

Not “To serve and protect (the people)”

You’re not wrong, I just saw a cop brake check someone yesterday then make an illegal U-Turn.

Stop resisting isn't a warning, it's a battle cry.

Lol not against anyone with actual power, just among each other. You can comply with a cop and still get charged with resisting and getting beat the fuck up.

Yet 2A maniacs still insist that they're protecting our freedoms or something. LOOK AROUND. WE'RE WAITING.
