      Unnecessary I.C.E. raids in California led to a protest that was unnecessarily escalated by police and then apparently the president deployed national guard troops there against the governors wishes. Which is abnormal for US procedures as governors tend to handle that. I have yet to see if the guard troops had any involvement before it got worse though.

      Saw a video of a journalist who got shot by police rubber bullets.

    Can’t imagine why they’re starting this shit in liberal, gun restricting states. Why would they do that?!

      There’s plenty of guns out there homie. A couple hundred million are grandfathered in and it’s not like it’s impossible to get guns.

      While California technically has a gun buyback program, it seems like no large-scale and popular buyback has occurred within the state.

        The buybacks are always bankrupted by guys showing up with 3d printed guns. What SHOULD be done is if it is 3d printed, they offer them the cost of the filament by weight and tell them the buyback is for people who aren’t trying to intentionally be pieces of shit and waste the money.

          Immigration protests in Cali, they don’t want ICE doing raids in their communities so they’re protesting and the police are throwing their might here to oppress the protestors.
