What does he mean by "liberals" have ruined our country? Does he mean Democrats? What about Independents? Is Pritzker a Liberal? Is Bill Kristol? For that matter, Trump was a Democrat. If they are going to carry guns and drag people of the street, they should be better educated.

This hasn't gotten a lot of reporting. There's been numerous instances of men, usually white men, dressing up in this MAGA paramilitary get up and abducting and raping hispanic and asian women. Goggle ICE Impersonators target women

I bet if you went like a MAGA person, with a hat perhaps, say you want to record what a good job they're doing. Record them smiling they are roughing innocent people. How would you deceminate something like that so the world could see. Get them to talk. How did they get the job. How were they trained, etc.

And, in other Trump-related news, the administration has still not released the Epstein files.

Does anybody know what happened immediately prior to this video? I heard they attacked him because he ran, but what did he do that made them target him in the first place? Did they have some kind of information or report ("illegal detected across from the cafe?" by some weird AI algorithm?)? Who is he? And where he is now?

What happens if you call 911 to report violence by persons impersonating the police?

You might be charged with "SWATTING" -- in other words, I don't recommend it.

(I also understand your sarcasm.)

Classic case of the unlawful use of force. This behavior would be referred to the internal affairs division in a normal law enforcement agency. This person was obviously not armed but was resisting arrest by fleeing. The level of force used was unjustified as it is clear both of those agents were not in danger. Tasers are a mechanical level of force just under the use of deadly force.
