    If they are close enough to me to film as close as I’ve seen, I feel like they’re close enough for face shots?

      You might get the one in front of you but the ones behind them will light you up and not only kill you but everyone in the house because they will empty those AR mags. Being a MP in the Army I trained urban warfare a lot and these guys most likely have only trained once. They will freak out and just hose the whole house with no regard for children or anyone else. This is being done to get a response so elections can be postponed. I don’t know the answer anymore.

        If something doesn’t happen before the elections, something will be orchestrated.

        True but I think that ICE will stop going into houses very quickly if a few point guys get smoked. They’re willing to kill but are they willing to die? I don’t think they are.

          Fuck direct confrontations. These small-dick losers are babies with axes to grind. If we can learn the intended target, boobytrap that shit. Do some Home Alone shit, for real. Cover them in Nickelodeon slime and feathers. Better yet, borrow a page from Mark Robert and make sure they can never use their equipment without sparkling like the special little boys they are when you unload glitter bombs all over them.

          Perhaps, perhaps they will fucking bomb them instead, or simply find more meatheads, some arrogant enough to attack anyways.

          An organized effort by the state will not be stopped by random acts of heroism. There must some kind of organized resistance. Perhaps actions that would be classified as terrorism and I 'd rather not get more into it or I 'll probably get banned from .world.

          Are you willing to get you and your family killed? What you are asking is for one family to sacrifice for us to make ICE scared. I don’t think anyone wants their family to get smoked.

            Calm down. I live by myself and have no kids and no one is asking you to make your 10-year old hide in a corner with a rifle pointed a door.

            ICE running into another Micah Xavier Johnson is matter of when not if.

      While getting fired upon in return (which you presumably will be, immediately, if you’re telling them to fuck off or be shot and they’re not fucking off)?

      Heads are small targets and hard to hit if they’re moving, and they move a lot even when the body they’re attached to is not actively trying to dodge gunfire. If you want to take out more than just the one you surprise, I would strongly recommend something that can punch holes in body armor – if you’re gonna go down this route, go down with >1 KDR.

      If they are close enough to shoot you in the face three times, they are close enough to be shot in the face three times.
