Fixed that for you.
The light that once I thought compassion still casting shadows in your action
The words you shared were cold transactions that bring me to curse what you've done
When you're up there absorbed in greatness with such success you've grown complacent
I hope you scorch your many faces when you fly too close to the sun
So the White House lied and said Paw Patrol was cancelled . . .
. . . and the Mayor of Portland was gassed by Federal agents/thugs.
How is this normal or OK? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-53538204
The cops are rioting:

Low-IQ thugs with no impulse-control.
"One day, we shall die. All the other days, we shall live."
Legal question: since they're going beyond just "protecting federal property" (by patrolling other blocks and throwing protesters into unmarked cars, etc.).... can those federal agents be *prosecuted* for following illegal or unconstitutional orders given by their superiors? If so, how far up the chain-of-command can that go?
Cops are bastards and these uniformed thugs deserve to be thrown in jail, or at least fired and relieved of all their money.

Potentially yes. But only in federal courts, so the only entity which can do the prosecuting is the Justice Dept. Care to take a guess what the Attorney-General's stance is on such prosecutions?Legal question: since they're going beyond just "protecting federal property" (by patrolling other blocks and throwing protesters into unmarked cars, etc.).... can those federal agents be *prosecuted* for following illegal or unconstitutional orders given by their superiors?

Last night as I lay in bed, looking up at the stars, I thought, “Where the hell is my ceiling?"

Another dangerous lunatic off the street. He's going to have a good ole time in prison.
That's weird, I thought you'd be happier about a gun-owner trying to defend innocent people against a terrorist attack with a deadly weapon.
"One day, we shall die. All the other days, we shall live."
I'd agree with the idea that shooting at a moving vehicle is reckless, but then I don't go around bigging up people who shoot.
Odd how the Police are saying that shooting at a moving vehicle attempting to run over hundreds of people is reckless but not saying that about driving at hundreds of people. Funny that.
In fairness, the shooter actually hit and injured two protestors and the driver of the car did not.

Nothing unreasonable about charging the shooter for reckless behavior, but, by Lewk's standards, the driver should have been charged for both the attempted murders and the inadvertent injuries that were caused in the attempt to prevent the murders. Damn' good thing other drivers managed to stop the jeep by ramming the fucking groypers.
"One day, we shall die. All the other days, we shall live."
Yeah. AG Barr thinks the feds should DOMINATE the states. Acting DHS Secretary Wolf thinks the feds should dominate THE BATTLE GROUND. They can't prosecute graffiti or trash fires, so they misuse laws created to deal with *terrorism by foreign actors*.
But if Trump loses re-election, and a new AG is appointed....can those federal agents be prosecuted? Or is there some kind of statute of limitations or blanket immunity?
Driver made every effort to avoid hitting people. It is easy to hit people if he wanted to, he did not. All he wanted to do was get out of the area.
Our resident "teacher troll" is crime-trolling again.
Yes, there will be statutes of limitations. It's most commonly five years in federal law for felonies though factors and circumstances can raise or lower it even if it's not in one of those crime categories with a different limitation codified in the law. There is no general immunity. The qualfied immunity doctrine is about liability, it offers no protection against criminal prosecution, and it doesn't apply if your conduct was criminal anyway. Could and would are still two very different things, and even if they did charge people who is to say whether they would get anywhere in trying to do so? It depends on precisely who you are trying to charge, and precisely what charges you're making.

The amount of people who don't understand this hurts my brain.
In other words, those federal agents could/might (and probably will) continue to hide behind fuzzy interpretations of federal law, and not be held accountable for treating citizen protestors like *terrorists*?
I'll reiterate my opinion that the DHS has too many "missions", and the executive branch has too many "powers". It's a shame that our AG acts more like Trump's personal attorney, but it's a real tragedy that he hasn't been impeached -- because our impeachment process has failed. That's on congress. They could have restructured the DHS, and taken back their authority of oversight, but they didn't.
So much for draining the swamp and Making America Great Again, huh.
Qualified immunity is garbage and needs to be done away with. Cops (and other government officials) should not be protected from civil claims just because their actions were technically lawful. Civil liability is a mix of how best to apportion blame for things which go wrong (not the same as unlawful) and responsibility for remedying whatever went wrong. Something being lawful doesn't mean it was right, nor does it mean you can't or shouldn't bear a measure of the responsibility for fixing it.

I'm going with LittleFuzzy. Lewk's brain seems to be fuzzy.
Anecdote: I visited Portland several years ago, and it was clear the city had a history of protests (including anarchists). That seemed to be part of the city's fabric, and no big deal. They had even created a public square where protesters and activists could "do their thing", alongside coffee shops and bistros -- it was a beautiful mix of architecture where "form meets function". I remember sitting on tiered steps, with a water fountain nearby, like an ampitheater where people could listen to the drum beats and music of 'protesters', watching all kinds of folks express themselves, and eat lunch. Graffiti was present, but it looked more like mural art. The streets were cleaned every night (compared to Philly that's a monumental task). It had a really good vibe, I never felt unsafe, and I thoroughly enjoyed my experience.
I can see why Portlanders found federal agents an "occupying force" that wasn't really there to do anything but stoke division, and inflame things for a Trump campaign photo-op.
None of that can be inferred from any available evidence, and witness reports suggest the exact opposite. I understand your desire to come to the defense of your creepy incel groyper brother, but you don't have a leg to stand on.
"One day, we shall die. All the other days, we shall live."
Setting aside whether that's true or not, as long as the shooter thought the car was a threat, isn't that enough reason for you to applaud him opening fire?
Keep on keepin' the beat alive!
"One day, we shall die. All the other days, we shall live."
This video proves nothing and of course the vehicle will start accelerating after being struck by another vehicle and *after gun fire.* If the goal was mass murder why didn't the jeep swerve into the protesters? From the absolute get go the voice over is peddling a false narrative.
Here's a wonderful idea. Stay out of the road.

And of course people who intend to murder folks always pull over to the side of the road after getting clear and call 911.
Because playing in traffic can you get you killed.

Now the guy may have been high on something, we'll have to find out but there seems no intent to wake up that morning and kill someone. Play in the streets you might get killed. Protest if you will but don't block traffic (vehicle or pedestrian). Your right to throw your fist ends at my nose, your right to protest and assembly ends at blocking other's rights to freely move about their business.

Surrounding a vehicle and threatening the occupants is a good way to get killed. Try not to do that.
In this case the driver was nearly killed. The automatic assumption anyone should have if their vehicle is surrounded by an angry savage mob is that their life is in imminent danger and to act accordingly.

Another example of a driver almost killed.

You're such a ridiculous fucking bootlicker.
