The Take Back Our Border channel on Telegram now has over 1,000 members, some of whom are invoking a new Civil War.
If you thought their surprise attack was a success, wait til you see how it goes when they announce it ahead of time.
This ought to be good.
Specialist:
Sir! 500 lb shitbag on a rascal sighted 3 clicks north!
Officer:
We got a week to plan then. Deploy the strategic cheeseburgers to slow them down.
"strategic cheeseburgers" is a line of cheeseburgers that turn slowly north, like Looney Tunes bird seed or Reese's in ET.
This is what happens when you call the 1/6 insurrectionists “tourists” and/or give them light sentences. Throw the book at these fuckers each and every time.
Maybe they're just mispronouncing the word "terrorist", they aren't the most educated folk ya know. They did give those terrorists too light a sentence anyway.
I wish some of the Mexican drug cartels would show up there at the same time, and then all the assholes in both countries could just finish each other off and leave the rest of us alone.
Please....the cartels would wipe out meal-team-six in minutes and keep going.
Actual murderers who are trained in violence versus stupid cosplayers.
The stupid cosplayers still have the means to murder unarmed, desperate civilians for the crime of being born on the wrong bit of dirt with the wrong amount of melanin.
That's why they're going. We don't need to politely pretend that the people who kill children for ringing their doorbell or accidentally getting in their car aren't just looking for any excuse to kill someone with their cool guns.
Don't forget, crossing multiple states to hot beds of activity until you find someone to shoot is apparently self defense now.
Something tells me the cartels aren't too concerned about these "border protections". Why would they get involved? In fact, the whole thing works out pretty well for them as a distraction.
A retired US Army lieutenant colonel is organizing an armed convoy next week to the Texas border to, he says, hunt down migrants
takes Green Beret courage to hunt down orphans and mothers in dire circumstances i guess.. is that the kind of courage they teach at Army Ranger School nowadays..
Imagine how much further we would be as a society if we didn't have to deal with this stupid shit.
The fact that the fairly drama-free Obama years are probably the best (or least insane) I'll see in my lifetime is incredibly depressing. These miserable, deranged lunatics and terrorists are determined to make life hell for everyone else, too.
I'm just surprised they want to ruin their Superbowl parties learning the same lesson as their loser Confederate idols.
They really should have planned better and combined this with the War on Christmas.
The sooner the better. How else will you make sure we have a white Christian nationalists government before the election.
the main Take Back Our Border channel now has over 1,000 members
sounds like they're practically ready to go
Why is it so common to blame those poorer, weaker, and more desperate than you for your problems. Yes live probably has gotten worse, and obvious problems are not being solved, but migrants are the last people to blame. It’s such a destructive tendency, and it’s sad to see the same mistake happening again and again.
The worst bit? The people most mad have the most in common with the migrants: low job security, lack of healthcare, food insecurity... if the people flying their Trump flags high would take just one second to look at themselves and at the rest of us they'd realize the enemy isn't people, it's unchecked capitalism.
And on that, I bet we actually agree. I just don't want to fix it with a side of hurting people who are different than me, that's all.
It's the result of manipulation from the true evil actors, those in the billionaire class.
That relies on the government actually doing something to stop them. Something its shown countless times it’s afraid to do.
not afraid, not with that military budget.
they agree with the far right nutjobs. or rather they serve them a purpose.
Fun fact: originally the A-10 didn't have electronic targeting or IFF (friend or foe) because the designer thought fighter planes still dog fought like they did in WW2 so they were deemed unnecessary in the name of maneuverability and cost reduction. Because of that outdated mindset the A-10 is the second place plane for most friendly fire incentdence and number one for most civilians killed. Wait actually that's not really a fun fact...
That guy who claims he designed the A-10 for those reasons is actually a dumbass who didn't even touch the design. They didn't give any strike craft those abilities because they didn't exist at the time. It was late Vietnam.
It didn't get the targeting packages that the Eagle got because the Air Force only ever made the thing in an attempt to keep the Army from getting armed Helicopters. They promptly tried to get rid of it but every time they seriously attempt it the Army just shows them their congressional proposal for an Army strike jet. The Air Force has repeatedly sand bagged the A-10, hoping everyone will believe the CAS mission is dead.
But the war in Ukraine has shown that it's very much not.
I will admit though that once the F-35 reaches certain scales of economy it will be cheaper to run them and some arsenal drones. But only because of that sand bagging.
All this shit keeps going because they didn't arrest all those morons taking over the wild life refuge years ago. It encouraged this crazy take on us military ideology. This is going to end very badly one day.
"On the lam" and "acquitted" are two entirely different things, and they were arrested at the time. Pretty sure somebody was killed by federal officers at one point.
Oh look, the gravy seals are out waving guns around trying to intimidate people again.
It's almost like the slap on the wrists these guys receive only emboldens them to keep doing it.
Unfortunately Texas has a really large chunk of US oil reserves. I don't see the US letting the actual land of Texas go, let alone giving it to Mexico.
LOL wait til they realize they're just shutting themselves off from receiving economic benefits. Really trying to fast track Texas' isolation. Good - they can support their own now. Stop expecting shit from California and other states. No one wants to visit the Alamo, where another force of volunteers failed. No one really wants to move there they just have to due how cheap all the dusty flat shit they call land is. The weather is garbage.
Fox "News" doesn't even have to roll out the ever terrifying "migrant caravan" this election season.
