That deputy sheriff badge looks like a kid's toy.

The sharing of Three Percenters stuff is a bit troubling, though.

Then again, if it's good enough for police officers, then it's probably fine. :)

Well, his badge says deputy sheriff of Orange county, so I'm guessing that he's legit.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

OC is a rich county.  Why are they handing out plastic badges?

Damnit how many weird libertarian militias are out there?

Turns out libertarians aren't so good creating a single tightly centralized organization.

They don't need no stinkin metal badges.

It's the foundation of Trump support.  He inflicts harm on those that conservatives were told to hate.

Only he doesn't really do much to harm me directly (or anybody...well I guess except non-citizens), except to the extent he turned the entire country into a shameful disfunctional wreck which harms everybody not just people conservatives don't like.

You're his target audience as a cis, het white guy. He's not trying to harm you. Women wanting medical help, immigrants wanting human rights, and black people wanting dignity,  however.... they are being directly harmed by Trump.
I like you a lot Meri, but I totally disagree with comments like this.
This is unfortunately a problem with modern day leftist activists.  You can not recognize that white men have their own problems too, just because they're not the same as those women or minorities may experience.

And as long as you all think like that, the likes of Trump will be elected to various positions of power. 

Or you'll get someone like Justin Trudeau who pretends to care while parading in front of the camera but is simply making sure your children and your children's children will be poorer than you are just so he can get elected and admired by those same people who will suffer the most.

Well I guess that is true. Just break shit hoping it will hurt the unfavored people more.

A very dark and nihilistic way to look at things.
It is hard to deny this is what they thought of the current pandemic.  It would disproportionally hurt black&hispanics with less than stellar access to healthcare.  Or poor whites from the cities who vote Democrat.

Time to teach kids about freedom by taking away their freedom :lol:

Scumbags in the UK always moan about bringing back national service too, despite them mostly having avoided it.

I guess involuntary service is a good way to better appreciate freedom. Not sure it would help them love this country though.
