Yea, a lot of keyboard warriors talk a big game. Simply filming an officer is still fucking heroing, you are documenting brutality because the cops definitely won’t. I was toe to toe with the CPD in 2020, and it was fucking terrifying. I don’t blame anyone who doesn’t want to kill themselves for not jumping into the fray. Most of us stock shelves for christ sake, and I teach music to 10 year olds- we don’t know how to fight. Even if we did, knowing how to fight and ACTUALLY fighting are VERY different.
I was in Eastern Oregon for my cousin’s bachelor party, and we went to play volleyball at the park. In the court next to us, there was a beefcake skinhead tatted up with swastikas and all of his friends. At this point “punch a Nazi” kinda goes out the door when my 6’2" and 150 lb bean pole ass goes up against the MOST RIPPED NAZI I HAVE EVER SEEN. I just asked the guys to maybe go slackline in the forest instead.
Depends what you mean by intervention. “All necessary force” could mean a maximum year long prison sentence, assuming the current administration doesn’t push for a terrorism charge.
And? You’re gonna let your neighbors be kidnapped and shipped off to god knows where, or worse, because you’re afraid the Nazis will turn on you?
You’re exactly the fucking coward Martin Niemoller wrote about. Just stay out of these conversations. You’re not a part of this. Stay home with your head in the sand.
Yep, that why we need to organize.
Even if some people may act bravely, it will not enough.
We need to create the conditions of those action: spreading info on demo, teach ourselves our to react collectively, our to defend our fellow in front of justice, making solidarity funds, …
Talk is cheap, especially when you’re talking about what I’m sure they’ll describe as “assaulting a federal officer”.

Can you show me which code section in the law says officers can commit crimes without intervention?

Whatever you say tough guy.
You’re not wanted here, and you have nothing to contribute. Go away.
Says the person arguing for cowardice.
“I don’t have the courage to put myself at risk for a righteous cause, so I’ll project insincerity onto those who do.”
