    And imagine having to wear those various shades of not-so-attractive-green in a skirt and blouse, with cute little tie as well. LOL.

    Yes--I'm not Biden's biggest fan, but he provides a refreshing contrast to what we're currently stuck with.
    I think we should be clear that no military personnel are involved in the Portland frolics.

    Local government seems outraged that after investing a couple of months in the surrender-appease-pander (SAP) strategy, the feds always are ruining everything with more active measures.

    People seem really upset over the federal costumery. Personally I see them as too imitative of Antifa’s fashion statement. Talk about your non-consensual co-platforming.

    I also find it refreshing that Biden is signaling a return to well-phrased counterfactuality I expect nothing less from a man claiming the degrees, academic honors and superior IQ that he possesses.

    From what I understand, these are not military personnel but federal agents. There is a major difference. These goons are not trained in this type of action. I agree this is a total disgrace.

    I'm not Biden's biggest fan either but he is totally better than the dictator-wannabe.

    Are the local police trained in this type of action?

    haha... trump's says he is a genius and refuses to show his college transcripts, not to mention his tax statements. Biden is much more qualified in all respects.

    I was complimenting the uniforms, they're very functional and made for rough duty. Much better for this operation than the slacks and button down shirts and ties these officers usually wear.

    I do not have police background but would think they would be trained in protest rallies and riot procedures. LDAHL, I believe, was police and could shed light on this subject???

    These officers are not usually in this type of situation. They are federal agents.

    I have never been involved in law enforcement. Unless you count processing their payroll and paying their invoices. I am not nearly a good enough person to be a cop.
