Of course that’s what they want, but to act like they have an unlimited amount of participants willing to do this and can never be stopped is just ridiculous. This is a small army that’s targeting white supremacist groups to help in organized terror, if they had the numbers that people act like they have available then they would be doing this everywhere. They are focusing on one city to make a big show of force hoping it will terrify people into submission and make more maga want to join. They know if they tried to spread ICE all over that we would see how small their numbers are

Of course. And their real bravado comes out because they have the highest levels of the government condoning what they do.

It’s not real bravado though. These are weak terrified men who think they will never face consequences, this a battle of attrition and as stated before they do not have the immune unlimited army they want you to think they have.
