Targeting the families of those who use the drones and machine guns? Seems like a really dumb idea to target the people whose bases you just moved onto so as to hide from the people.

    What the ACTUAL fuck?

    Are they TRYING to be as stupid as they possibly can be??

    This isn't just shooting themselves in the foot. This is planting a live grenade in their own underwear while stepping barefoot on Lego and shouting abuse about a serial killer's mother to his face while covered in meat within an enclosure full of starving lions!

    Remember fascist have always been fucking braindead, due to how their political cults tend to work they are far more interested in grand standing than getting effective results even within their own so called ideological framework. For example the Confederates had to start losing the war before they started using slave labor for things like logistics, which the abhorancy of slavery aside I thought that was one of the reasons to keep slaver, ya know to do the work noone can or wants to do.

    The slaves were already working for their owners.

    Even if that was the case you'd think they'd give a tax break for those who "volunteered" their slave or even have the state aquire their own. Regardless my point was moreso that they didn't do so for ideological reasons since they did do it eventually but we're resistant to doing so due to ideology and pride.

    I have known a few Marines. They will not appreciate this initiative.

    This is not a wise course of action.

    Ice has virtually unlimited money and complete intelligence, which is to say informational intelligence, not actual intelligence obviously. A few disparate Marines on their own do not stand a chance without organization behind them.

    Ice is already around $170 billion, which is roughly three times the budget of the Marine corps.

    Most people can't understand just how much money that is. $40 billion of that is going to building new detention centers and various kinds of concentration camps. That's about $7m per ICE employee every year.
