part of the “Domestic Civil Disturbance Quick Reaction Force,” troops would be equipped with weapons and riot gear
So let's see, a sort of protection squadron with weapons... Hmm, I wonder what we could call it...
How about we use fancy German?
"Schutzstaffel" sounds spiffy. And "Waffen" for the weapons.
We could even shorten it to the even spiffier "Waffen SS".
We could also give them a cool insignia, maybe a skull so you know they mean business.
How about a nice Kermit the Frog?

Trump Rapes Kids. Release the Epstein Files.
No chance Trump just arranged for Maxwell to get out on “work Release”
She's going to be named Secretary of Education.
Trump is also going to commute the last 5 years of Jared Fogle's sentence, and name him press secretary.
I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that this stuff always seems to “need” to be done when he’s in power.
Wait until the $200 billion they put into ICE starts paying off. This shit is just testing the waters. By the midterms, they’ll be talking about “illegals” voting in elections and turning the ICE-enforced police state loose on the polls to intimidate voters.
In Nazi Germany, the “legal” enforcers stood over you while you either checked voting for the Nazi party or not. Russia’s elections are similar. America’s elections have had problems over the centuries, but they’ve never been that. Not on a national level across the board. It’s the KKK burning crosses everywhere all at once.
Trump begins forming a unit of loyal soldiers who are willing to kill US citizens.
Handmaid's Tale level of dystopia incoming....
So if ICE is modern day Gestapo this squad will be... SA? Aka Brownshirts?
Hmm, this sounds a lot like dictatorship, but maybe I'm wrong...
Yes it certainly seems that way
Brown shirt bootlickers
Civil war when?
Civil war now.
Let's convince all those supporters of his who are 2A supporters that this is bad, and sit back with some popcorn
Yeah it’s funny how the military always gets weaponized on civilian populations when their savior is in charge, but they swear they need their guns to defend freedom from democrats.
Most 2Aers will happily become his SS.
Not really, a lot of them are pissed at Trump.
Most of them couldn't make it through basic training without having a massive coronary.
At this point I think it's pretty clear that none of them care about government overreach.
Kill occupiers and oppressors.
Do we call the Christian Nationalist task force that answers directly to the president the Pray-torian guard?
Release the trump/Epstein files
How much would 600 bullets cost?
There's a lot of variables there...
This is kind of like asking "How much for 600 sandwiches?"
How much does the average .50 round cost? I figure we ought to give them something good.
Edit : Apparently it’s four dollars a round
.50bmg is about $5-$10 a round, on the low end, but depending on how tight spacing is, you probably wouldn't need 600
I think they should be individually used, very slowly
It's more cost efficient to use the whole bullet.
Cave Johnson here, why do we not use the whole bullet? Sure you fire a bit of lead but imagine what you could do if you fired the brass and powder as well? So I got the boys down in the lab working on it, they created something called a coilgun. Don't really know or care what that means but you should care, because we are going to give you one to fight the ever growing army of mantis men! Don't worry they don't eat people.
More than a guillotine.
That’s probably true. I think the most expensive part would be the blade, but you can keep sharpening that – unlike a bullet. I think either would be acceptable, but certainly the guillotine would be more entertaining
The point of the guillotine was to give all citizens an equal, dignified and relatively painless death. Too good for those fucks.
Dignified? Really?
Yeah. Before the French Revolution execution via beheading was reserved for nobles, and it was done manually using a weapon rather than via a machine. Meanwhile commoners got to have all the wonderful medieval execution methods like breaking on the wheel and burning at the stake. In the interest of Enlightenment ideals, abandoning medieval barbarism and equality between citizens the Legislative Assembly voted to do away with this system and made it so all French citizens got a execution via beheading like the nobility. However, executioners said that if the lines got too long they might have to rush their work, and a sloppy job would cause undue suffering to the condemned, defeating the point of the whole affair. This is where the clean and efficient guillotine came in. The guillotine as a tool was meant to bring the masses up, not bring the nobility down. That's not what it's associated with nowadays, but it's plenty dignified compared to being hanged, drawn and quartered.
Stop resisting to the civil unrest that I’m causing! 🫲🍊🫱
a crack team of over-accessorized paunchy masked cowards to set all our neighbors straight, no doubt
Oh god. The National Goons. Also, what about those Epstein files ( particularly photos and videos)?
