Cool...

This one goes out to all the small government, privacy loving, Republicans out there, supposedly hating invasive big brother tactics and representing the values of the American heartland.

Would be much appreciated if you could have a word with your people about this.

Follow Hong Kong tactics and use umbrellas to shield from above.

What's wrong is that officers of the law are allowed to lie like that, yet still want to be respected.

Yeah, it's frustrating. We need to end Qualified Immunity pronto.

Green lasers. Everybody should have one.

Check comment above. This is a terrible idea. You'll go from 2 stars to 5.

But they won't have copters to track you down and green lasers take out CCDs like nothing else. If they wanted to fly they shouldn't have weaponized the sky and flight.

They have sonic weapons. They run over people with horses and armored vehicles.

What about walkie talkies? Short wave radios? Older tech comms devices?

[–] interdimensionalmeme@lemmy.ml 6 points 6 days ago

What about open source open hardware anti-air missiles?

Threatened? So they didn't ID them.
