Federal agents take a photo of a legal observer in Maine who is videotaping them and say they are adding them to a database for “domestic terrorists”

This is exactly what happens in Russia

1. So he's not ICE? What is he? n/t

[Kid Berwyn]

3. A masked murderer and traitor.

A co-conspirator of Jonathan Ross.

[Klarkashton]

2. The least of it would be being put on a "no fly list"

Beyond that who knows what they would do.

[SWBTATTReg]

4. Take pictures back of them. Take millions of pictures, and itemize where, when, etc. details so these thugs can be

tagged and ID'ed by others into a comprehensive DB for all of us to share, download constantly. If anything, these DBs should be distributed widely (lets say 10 copies or more) among 10 or more of us, and then when updates are made, all copies are updated too at the same time.

6. A perfect use for a blockchain

It's all-but immutable and available to everyone who knows how to find it.

[SheltieLover]

5. Beyond ridiculous!

Ty for sharing!

[IA8IT]

7. Elon Musk already has all that....pics DOB SS# address where you shit last.

[Bayard]

8. They're all such smart asses!

No people skills whatsoever. Its a requirement to get hired.

[Arazi]

9. Oh I'd be honored to have history record me on that list

Can’t wait to get added into a government database as a resistance fighter during this era, for eternity

[dickthegrouch]

10. Filing a false police report is a misdemeanor (AFAIR)

Follow the attributions, and sue for defamation.
The current ask for damages is apparently $10B for even the most piffling defamation (Rump vs BBC).

11. I suppose the thugs were sent to Maine

Because it's Trump's easy of getting even with their governor for standing up to him several months ago.

[OldBaldy1701E]

12. "Just as you are now added to the database that will be used in the trials once this crap is over!" (n/t)

[MaineBlueBear]

13. Says the masked domestic terrorist

It's always projection with these bullies.

[orangecrush]

14. (cough cough) GO FUCK YOURSELF

[IronLionZion]

15. There are some domestic terrorists in that video

they are ones wearing masks to hide their identity and won't show any badges or badge numbers.
