No need to choose. I suspect that many of drich's friends are imaginary liars.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Keep it classy.

how is seizing us sovereign territory a protest? the right to peacefully assemble is a right not over run or over whelm a local police department.

Yeah critics say 

Oh occasionally i fight broke out or there an altrications of some kind . Yeah because that happens anywhere else and considering have tense the situation should be a couple of minor brawls is nothing 

They point to the fact some of them have guns . Funny how that not a problem when right wingers do it 

They point to an altercation with a journalist who CHAZ argues was the one who got aggressive   

They point to a dude ASKING that people give ten dollars as if that intimidating 

They point to them trying to enforce some kind of law .But during protests milita's do that all the time .

And need i point out this is all stuff (yes cops have extorted money from people ) that cops have during the protests .I guess none of this is bad if you have a badge and are agent of the state .

it wont be cops.. they have stand down orders from the mayor. they even tried to go in with tear gas and the mayor pulled the police back. Trump said if the local government will not secure the city he would with the 101st airborne.

Boru

would need tanks just a few truck loads of soldiers who will go systematically building to building clearing and detaining anyone after a lawful order to leave has been issued. I think the only think they are waiting for is to declare these people terrorists so they can strip them of their right and let them cool off a gitmo.

And on the other hand, you have people like Drich who can't wait to take out their guns and start shooting at people. They can't wait for some bloodbath, and Fox news, along with Trump, are feeding them with paranoia to do it. Like in this case they are creating a picture like Chaz is this scenario out of Mad Max.

lets see how long they last after they've been declared terrorists.

Trump has already declared them ‘terrorists’ and they’re still there. 

Nice ‘research’.
