With all the attacks on officers in the last week, what will the appropriate response be if the situation continues to escalate? A lot of people criticize Obama for saying and doing nothing. Be careful what you wish for.

I'm not saying it's all happening by design, but where is this going to lead?

You are worried about the govt. enacting more government, when the current leader refuses to show any sign about caring about the loss of the govt. agents lives?

Yep.. not going to happen under him. He is to busy trying to nationalize the policing industry. The killings are in direct contradiction that the police are the ones doing the killings of innocent people.

I'm not sure Obama cares as much about controlling the population as much as he does dividing and punishing it. Might not get so lucky with the next person.

Another one today in Chicago area. I am about ready to say let the anarchy begin. I am armed, my family is armed, the majority of my friends are armed,my neighbors are armed. Let the FOP take a much needed 3 month vacation and let the bad guys do what they do unrestricted and maybe the lily livered liberal crowd might possibly get the picture.
I know this isn't the answer, but I am not exactly sure what the answer is.

THIS

Maybe not by design, but "Never let a crisis go to waste" might come into play and Zeros minions might push him into such an act.  Martial law plus gun bans if not gun confiscation would probably not out of the question.

Which, if that happens begs to ask, "Will it be FO time?"

In the broad sense there is not a lot of people getting killed -- but there is a 24 hours news cycle that needs to keep attention on itself.

In the narrow sense if I was a cop I would fear more for my safety.

Unfortunately this is a fucking text book example of what happens when you (figuratively and literally) don't discipline your kids!  They get emboldened to act out in ever increasing bad ways.  So we've hamstrung the police who now smile and wave and now "the children" keep pushing boundaries and think they can get away with murder -- and (from my understanding) random killings committed by people with the sense to keep their mouths shut are very hard to solve.

I think this is going to come to a head like little else has in the recent past.  OWS was a bunch of well-to-do bored and unemployed 'tards   This is different, this is violently anti social.

One of the primary goals of terrorism is to cause the target government to over react thus causing its population to rebel against it.
Another goal is to demonstrate to the population that its government is unable or unwilling to protect its citizens causing a loss of confidence in the government..

Fact:

We have been under a "police state" for a while now....

300,000+ laws plus hundreds of thousands of regulatory guidelines.

And each department from State to Federal has armed officers to back them up at any time.

Even the Department of Education has a SWAT TEAM.

I can only guess that GG had in mind the 2011 "student loan" raid in CA when he posted this particular comment. It certainly is the first thought I had when I read "Dept of Ed" and "SWAT" in the same sentence.

OIG, which is the law enforcement arm of US Dept of Education, certainly does have armed officers with full arrest powers. Whether they comprise a "SWAT" team or not is a semantical exercise IMO.

To OP's question: no, I don't believe that we're looking at the beginning of a situation where the White House seizes control over local LE operation and suspends BoR. I do, however, believe that most of the shootings of uniformed police officers that have transpired this summer are the result of the BLM shit that WH wholly encourages.

No, we do not live in a police state.

But, I do have concerns regarding in increasing regulatory burden and the increasing surveillance of everyday citizens.

So, while I disagree with GG's first statement, the next two do seem to be correct.

You have no clue, do you?

Serving a warrant has been done for some time. I am guessing you knew that, since we discuss the Constitution. The mere serving of a warrant does not make one a "SWAT" team. The article you are hanging your hat was proven to be false, as was the claim it was over student loans.

I have served 6 warrants this last week. Never drew a gun. Never used a flashbang. Never used a Bearcat. Never even wore a vest or helmet. Left the Mp-5 in the car. No handcuffs. And didn't shoot a dog. But, since these could be viewed as "raids", I am a SWAT team. Cool.

No Police State will happen from this. All that will happen is LE will further continue down the road of being less proactive.

as far as Obama is concerned his role is to do nothing.

the best outcome for the left is for lots more cops to be murdered, then extreme measures will have to be taken. then slowly the powers will expand till all the cops are under the federal umbrella.

the government will never get smaller if the job they were created for goes away they just come up with some make work and keep growing the budget.

There is a war on the police, because the police have essentially declared war on people.



This really isn't that hard to figure out, but apparently the police are having a hard time.  They're the ones always going on about 'show me respect, I show you respect' bullshit.  The problem is that when you're a cop, and you go out of your way to treat everyone that you contact like a fucking criminal, of course they're going to hate your guts.  Of course they're going to despise you.



This is, frankly, the exact result that the police should have expected.  This is what happens when you raid 'pot shops' and eat the fucking merchandise and than claim that you should be immune from prosecution because you have a badge.  This is what happens when you setup seatbelt checkpoints and inconvenience people for no reason other than revenue generation.  This is what happens when you have a rifle stolen from a cop car and demand to search every car leaving the same parking lot, as happened in my town recently.  



When you basically spend years going out of your damn way to make people hate you, it shouldn't be an earth shattering revelation that they eventually end up hating you.  



Everyone that I've ever met hates being micro-managed, but that seems to be the M.O. of most police departments right now.  There are too many police trying to micro-manage too many things.  Reduce the number of police and let whomever is left concentrate on solving the ACTUAL crime happening in the community.  



This isn't anti-cop or anything of the sort - it's just fact that the harder you push to make everyone a common criminal, the more fed up people that don't trust you you're going to have.

That's great that you say that, but at the same time you have to admit that police are having a public perception problem right now.



Nobody sees you out there doing your job without tasering the shit out of everyone, they only see the one guy who did taser the shit out of someone, and they react to visuals like that very negatively.

The police state started with the war on drugs.  



Or was it the Whiskey Rebellion? Or maybe the Alien and Sedition Acts.

Fact:



We have been under a "police state" for a while now....



300,000+ laws plus hundreds of thousands of regulatory guidelines.



And each department from State to Federal has armed officers to back them up at any time.



Even the Department of Education has a SWAT TEAM.





Of course I mean no disrespect to our law enforcement personnel. Simply pointing out facts.

You are worried about the govt. enacting more government, when the current leader refuses to show any sign about caring about the loss of the govt. agents lives?

Yep.. not going to happen under him. He is to busy trying to nationalize the policing industry. The killings are in direct contradiction that the police are the ones doing the killings of innocent people.

They're pawns in a large game for him.

He doesn't care about their lives, he cares about using their lives to fit his agenda.  Just like everything else.

With all the attacks on officers in the last week, what will the appropriate response be if the situation continues to escalate? A lot of people criticize Obama for saying and doing nothing. Be careful what you wish for.

I'm not saying it's all happening by design, but where is this going to lead?
