re: #52 A Mom Anon

Does anyone have a clue as to who has been taken into custody, where they are and if they have been released? Are they actually in a jail or a damned camp or what? As a woman, I’d be scared to death of being raped by these goons. How long before they kill someone? Or have they and we just don’t know yet?

I know that’s the point, but this is terrifying.

Another thought…what if the protesters just stayed home for a night? And instead, find a way to follow these fucking militia fucks to where they are staying and try to ID them. I know protests are important right now, but there has to be a way to counter this and keep people alive. JFC, how can this be stopped? Is that even possible? What good are laws when no one is enforcing them? That’s been a problem with the federal government since trump took office.

We know who they are, and where they go, etc. It’s not militia fucks, they are Border Patrol BORTAC units shipped in from San Diego. They take the people they are grabbing to the Federal courthouse in downtown Portland. *Attempt* to interrogate them (try get them to admit to a crime probably), the second anyone asks for a lawyer get they released. As far as anyone can tell, no one has actually disappeared, been arraigned or charged with anything, or seriously injured or killed. It’s BAD, but it’s not that bad. It’s concerning bad, something needs to be done bad, but not sheer panic bad yet.

One good thing. The people running this, and the people involved with it are fucking idiots.
