Photo du Jour

There is so much wrong with this pic. Hard to know where to start.

Demilitarize EVERYONE.

We are not each other’s enemies. But there are powerful, unscrupulous people who want us to feel like we are. The chaos and instability lets them go unaccountable.

  1. Imagine if they had also passed a couple of counterfeit 20s.

  2. What is that thing on a chain around the neck of the man on the left? At first i thought it was a roll of TP. So this is an “unregulated militia,” how nice. Yes, gun control needs to be on the agenda along with institutional racism, police brutality and inequality under the law.

  3. That TP roll looks like a homemade weapon – looks pretty lethal, although the guy donning it may be at risk of hitting himself in the face. What a bunch of jerks.

    • RD, I took them for SWAT not street cops, but if all four were standing, at a glance, i would not be able to distinguish good guys from bad guys, assuming i ever could….

      I have to say that in my life the police always instilled fear not confidence or relief that help was on the scene and i am an old white woman. It was always the stern face, OMG i did something wrong, the fire arm, and the swagger.

      • Sorry, lililam, added this in the wrong place. Yes, they are jerks, but scary ones. Who exactly do they think they are?

      • Go look up pics of us army combat tactical uniforms and you’ll see that these “swat” cops don’t look a whole lot different.

        • RD the more closely I looked at the two standing commandos, the more puzzled I got; they have different insignia and gear. I googled Albuquerque police uniforms, neither tactical outfit came up. Their unis were not in camo. So who the hell are they? The caption implies that they are city police.

  4. I’m surprised that no one commented at the way the police look. Do they look like cops to you??

  5. The cops remind me of Hitler’s SS/brownshirts polifice force who terraized the people during his rise to power. It appears history is repeating itself, in all places, here in America. If you read about Hitler’s personality characteristics, they are parallel with trumps.

    • I draw comfort from the apparent fact that the military brass do NOT support Benedict Donald; perhaps they know an asset for an enemy nation (Russia) when they see one.

  6. Ivory Bill,

    The next time trump requests the military defy the Constitution and follow his illegal orders and they refuse to do so, THEN I will believe that the military recognizes trump for the dictator/putin puppet he truly is.

    Time will tell if they will have the “brass” to defy trump and stand with the American people they have pledged to serve.
