They are struggling to control L.A.
How are they going to control 350 million people across 50 states?

Trump&Enablers are running things on the basis of Catch Me if You Can, and Just Try to Stop Me. Also what Muskrat said: Move Fast & Break Things. They dont give a damn about the law any law at all.

(19,483 posts)The myth that Trump is omnipotent, and the states and the people are powerless.
Indeed, this administration has committed heinous acts with impunity, but with the exception of the Garcia case, have not defied any court rulings or orders.
Lets see what this week brings.

(38,204 posts)Trump said recently that he plans on doing this in all states/cities/all of America. That is probably what his "birthday" military plans are; to usher in martial law anyhow.
It doesn't matter what protesters do. He plans on doing it anyway.
Don't let MAGA win the PsyOps war.
You are right. They cannot control all 350 million people. This is the end of democracy if we don't find a way to win. Protest loudly while we still can.
protest loudly we still have our voices.

(11,573 posts)When the protesters immediately sit down at the first hint of police violence, it exposes the perpetrators. They're the only ones standing, so it's pretty clear who is creating the situation.
When you stand and hold big protest signs, it obscures the crimes being committed.
The problem is that sitting requires a lot of discipline. Not sure if people can follow through with that.

(39,480 posts)If you have folks coming in from all directions to join the protest, many may not be aware of these tactics. Legitimate protestors could be mistakenly fingered as perpetrators.

(68,429 posts)those who will be doing our duty to assemble please be careful. And stick to the precautions. There have been multiple threads here today with how to conduct ourselves during a protest.
One thing was to sit down with your signs and let those who are conducting violent acts be seen by the police.
Remember during the George Floyd protests there were many outside agitators who WERE committing violent acts.
Please be safe and do not let them stop you.

I don't think the actions or reactions of protestors in the here and now will affect any measurable changes to a script written and signed off on months ago.
