Give Them The Old Razzle Dazzle by Foxfier

If you’ve been watching Paliwood for a while, this might seem familiar — all those girls are in red. Like the Mandatory Bright Colored Children’s Toys often are, although blue is a distinct second, with other bright colors in the running. The one guy in the crowd who has a on clean coat or hat, in a bright color, is also popular.
If a production has something brightly colored and clearly different, they want you to look there.
Guess what, that applies to protests, as well.
There’s a very good tweet on the “layers” of a protest, here:
https://x.com/LukeTaylorUSA/status/2011147517262774298
We’re looking at Layer 1, from a slightly different angle– these are the folks that they want to have as the face of their movmenent.
If you look at old protests, this is where the cute girls or emotionally packed character sketch stood. Think the cute hippy chick putting a flower in the barrel of a gun, or the “I am totally not trying to look like a parody of Jesus” hippy dudes in similar moves.
Those photos even help drive it home because the folks behind them are usually out of focus– now, the people behind the “pay attention to these ones” are usually in hoods, masks, or both.
Now, if you go to the tweet that Luke was responding to, you’ll find a video that does the unusual thing of not being from the desired perspective.
https://x.com/i/status/2011130745125826859
There’s two attention-grabbers there– the chick with the dyed red braids, and the guy in the clean jean jacket and red-brown glasses.
Well, and the ‘found out’ who is helpfully literally wearing a day-glo jacket, but we don’t see much of him before he’s finished with the f around portion.
For the rest of the group? It’s hard to tell who is law enforcement and who is a protester, and even if it wasn’t winter it’d be hard to tell if some are male or female, which is why they’re not made up to be targets for attention. It’s like all the other camouflaged herds, it’s harder to pick out a target to focus on when they all blend together. You can see a non-evil example of this in that video of the ICE agent that picked up a rose, and handed it to a female colleague, where without him pulling focus on to her it wasn’t obvious there was a woman in the group.
Now, with that in mind… why do I see all this talk about how “all the protesters” are white women? People keep sharing photos of protesters where there’s three or four women right up front, yeah, bright colored in both meanings hair and all, but there’s a dozen often-masked mostly guys who outmass even the landwhales right there.
Even after we have videos of definitely-males doing things like chucking a frozen water bottle at the cops and trying to outrun them (and failing)?
They put the pale, brightly colored examples out front to get your attention.
It’s not just visual, either.
They put women as spokesmen for exactly the same reason that the military uses a female voice for their cockpit AI– it gets attention.
Same way that performative anger or sorrow does.
Quit cooperating with the stupid activist games, please!
Also, when the Good Guys lay hands on the female opposition, it triggers the usual glandular response in threat forces males. Who promptly ape-up and attack.
Which, of course, is why that flaming moron bluehair chick is in your face and flinging poo. Because she is the bait in the ambush.

A couple of nights ago I was talking to the treasurer for the campaign of a local Republican Minnesota State Legislator. He didn’t see that there could be any connection between Alex Pretti and the woman in a white jacket who had been harassing the agents. He saw it as virtuous that Pretti came to her aid when she was finally shoved by one of the officers she had been harassing. He couldn’t even see where in the video Pretti made physical contact with the officer. He could only see where Pretti reached down to help the woman up. What I saw as part of a paramilitary obstruction operation, he saw as an act of gallantry.

Aha. I *knew* there was more to the whole “But he was just helping a woman who’d been shoved/pepper sprayed/attacked by ICE!” nonsense that I’ve seen even some folks on the right spouting. I’ve been too busy to go and look and determine if it was a straight up lie or not (because we know they’ve done that, too), so thanks for the additional context here.
And look, it is entirely possible that he was NOT in fact going for his gun. But you add an idiot showing up armed, getting in agents’ faces, and these very agents have spent days/weeks/months being harassed, screamed at, had potentially lethal objects thrown at them (along with other non-lethal but disgusting ones), had their families threatened, families actually attacked, had their hotels attacked, and they can’t even attend church any more in peace…? These are guys who are exhausted, furious, scared, and basically down to their very last nerve and its fraying…and yeah. They’re gonna be twitchy, and likely overreact. Which is EXACTLY what the left’s purpose in all of this is. It’s the same damn playbook of “push and bully until they push back, and then play the victim” writ large, and now in “actually costing people their lives” flavor. >:(
I know the Trump administration is trying to tread as lightly as they can (and I think that’s wise) but…Bondi needs to get off her damn ass, and Patel and Noem need to stop saying stupid shit like “you shouldn’t ever be armed at a protest, and carrying extra clips is super sus”
(If he had not continued pushing into LEO’s space after being warned, and then violently resisting arrest, him being armed at a protest would not have been in any way an issue, and perfectly acceptable. The issue here is his behavior making it so the fact that he was armed likely cost him his life, instead of spending a few days in jail, but Patel/Noem seem to be making it sound like actually HAVING the gun was a problem. It’s not quite as stupid as Bondi’s remarks a few months back on free speech…but it’s close.)

In the long run, Patel and Noem have been doing a decent job. Doesn’t mean they’re going to be right every time they open their mouths. And in Pretti’s case, having a gun at a protest WAS the problem. It would be one thing for protection against violent pro-ICE anti-protestors, which are pretty damn thin on the ground. If it’s for protection against ICE, then it’s already a criminal act. So, I have to agree with Noem on that one. It wasn’t the full load, but it was the straw that broke the camel’s back.

P320 has several years of complaints of undesired discharges when dropped or struck. Enough that quite a number of government contracts for them were pulled or required correction of the problem. No deaths that I’ve heard of, but several injuries from the unintentional firings.
I’ve fumble finger (really need to put a heater in the garage/shop) dropped my P365 a couple of times, never had it go off; nor have I heard of any accidental firings with it from others. Good, solid, compact 9mm pistol.
P320 is twice as big, still firing a 9mm, although the longer barrel increases muzzle velocity somewhat, and longer-range accuracy. If I was going for an open carry pistol, I’d want one with a 6-inch barrel in .45 cal. for both accuracy and stopping power.

Not an expert, but it is my understanding is there are enough geometry differences in the fiddly guts of the fire control unit between the P320 FCU to the P365 FCU that the latter likely would not experience similar issues to the former, and indeed AFAIK stuff seen in the P320 is not being seen in the P365.

I take this whole incident as being a semi-organized operation on the part of the so called “protesters” and tend to think of them as misguided cannon fodder for the left, what the old Bolsheviks called useful idiots. Also in the mix though are more committed fanatics and overall I consider the whole situation dangerous.

And conversely, the case they trumpet that it was “captured from every angle!” is itself damning, because a camera only sees what it’s already pointed at.

There are anonymous tip lines, which are the real targets of these accusations, but the information in them is not actionable. THAT IS WHY THEY ARE CALLED A TIP LINE. All they do is provide information on where to look, which these days is almost always “hey, this is the publicly posted video of my cousin waving a gun around and saying he wants to kill ICE; I am very sure he is a felon and shouldn’t have this, can you maybe check it out and talk to his parole officer?”

To be fair to the police (at our house that is sheriff or state) are understaffed. The safety initiatives do not seem to equate to on the street police personnel. Even the K9’s they have are acquired through handler grants, not agencies. OTOH, when a handler moves from one agency to another, or even different departments within the same agency, the K9 moves with them.
