Federal authorities descended on a park where children were playing in California on Monday to conduct enforcement operations.

Dozens of federal agents in tactical gear, heavily armed and dressed in military-style uniforms, staged what seemed to be an immigration enforcement action, drawing swift condemnation from Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, who rushed to the scene in response.

    I’m scared somebody is gonna shoot one of these airsoft warrior looking wannabes and they’ll use that as an excuse to start shooting civilians.

      Pretty sure that’s exactly what they want. It’ll eventually happen as they continue to provoke the populace.

        Theu are going to ramp up their provocations regardless. Maybe people will think twice before joining the secret police if they start to become targets

    It was an empty park they literally formed a line of probably 30 people and horses and swept through like what you see during a prison yard search.

    The intent is clear, you’re already in prison your term and treatment are just indeterminate until they touch you like a fascist version of flag football.
