(7,209 posts)They definitely shot some people in Chicago back when they were there, but this certainly seems an escalation. The asshole yesterday looked like he was looking for a reason.
Miller is doing a New Years blitzkrieg, essentially: Venezuela, Greenland, ICE shooting up Dem cities. It's an onslaught.

Who knows, they may end up killing a couple of their own in a false flag operation.
Trump (and Miller) are itching for some dead federal agents to make martyrs of so they can declare some sort of National Emergency.
It's going to suck when that mandatory Presidential Alert on our cell phones goes off. I'll probably smash my cell phone to bits and burn it when that happens.
