A bit of an alarmist title. They would be negligent if they didn't.
Hopefully they are able to anticipate protests and handle these without getting anyone shot. A good part of this is intelligence, and reading reddit is not a very invasive type of intelligence.
- OutOfHere 8mo agoHuh. Why do they need to anticipate protests? Why can't they simply respect the right of the people to assemble and complain? The only thing that's alarmist is all of the actions performed by ICE.
- breppp 8mo agoPresumably being prepared for an incident will reduce the chance that due to surprise that incident will be handled incorrectly If you ask me, all US law enforcement are very trigger happy, but I always assumed it is a two-way street as in, more people in US are armed and try to shoot law enforcements than in other countries
- notarget137 8mo agoAnd more US police officers die on duty due to more citizens willing to kill law enforcement officers.

- JCattheATM 8mo agoAs a defensive measure due to cops being so trigger happy. Until the US relaxes it's cultist obsession about the 2A, that won't change.
- JCattheATM 8mo agoCompare innocent people shot by cops to cops shot by people at protests, and the numbers won't be remotely close.
- w0de0 8mo agoThis approach seems much more likely to induce an incident. It’s an adversarial approach; it’s how you end up shooting people for filming. Constant vigilance! Shoot the nurse on his knees, to be safe!
