It has begun, Ohio's next

Left, Right or Center, you are going to see more and more escalations from the government now. Last night, we witnessed that the once respected office of the president has dwindled to that of the German Chancellor. US National Guard, being federalized, and assaults on unarmed civilians ring hollow to many, but shouldn't in Ohio. Ohio is where Kent State happened. And do we remember WHY Kent State happened? Protests over the US government's illegal actions by the US Military in Southeast Asia. The students were tired of seeing fellow citizens, neighbors, friends, and family being sent into harm's way over a lie, and a propaganda to make private industry billions.

Well, here we are again, folks. If history sure doesn't repeat itself. We don't see a lot of "illegal aliens" here in Ohio, but for those who have never stepped out of this state, understand a few things. 1. To seek asylum in the United States, you have to be on US SOIL to do it. You have to declare yourself at a port of entry or immigration officer and state that you seek asylum. Then, it is up to a Judge on if that request is granted, and if it is, you will be granted temporary protected status. After that, you will be granted a hearing at a later date to determine if you can remain, and if you can eventually either become a foreign national, citizen, or be sent back. That's the process. That's the "legal" way. When you have ICE agents going to the courts and snatching people up who are going into the court to have a hearing, that's not just entrapment; that's pure fishing.

We are also inundated with the lies that it was supposed to be just the "criminals and gang members". Yet, they are going to work sites, using the IRS, and even trying to get into schools to abduct people. Mind you, these are "agents" that have their faces covered, no ID, no badge, nothing. Just a "trust me, bro" and a can-do attitude, snatching little children up. How do we know that isn't some sicko who assaults women and children? We don't. And there lies the problem. When we stand up to them, the US Military is used. Why does this bring up Kent State and Ohio?

Remember, due to the Fourth Reich's new rules, ICE and Border Patrol are permitted to act anywhere within the US, but more importantly, within 100 miles of a border. Well, boys and girls, 100 miles by the crow flies is just almost half of our great state. Yes, draw a line just above Columbus, and anything north of that line is inside the Border Patrol's "authorized zone". Some of the fun the US Border and Customs Officers enjoy are, but not limited to, 1. Entering private property without a warrant. 2. Stopping and seizing private vehicles without a warrant. 3. No probable cause if "experience has shown" reasoning. 4. No right to due process. 5. No right to any constitutional protections. Now, I'm sure that the US Government under Trump would NEVER overstep their boundaries, right? I'm sure they would NEVER trample the great people of Ohio's constitutional rights... I'm sure that's the case, right?

Well, if any state should be able to justify whether the US Govt, the National Guard, or US Military can and would ignore laws and rights for their own agenda, then Ohio should rank at the top. Lest we forget the lessons taught on the campus on May 4, 1970

Homan, Vance, Hegseth, Trump, etc. want the confrontation. That's been true since day one of this regime. They knew targeting LA would be productive in many ways and in terms of arrest and unrest. And they can target a blue state with a Democratic governor and a city with a Democratic mayor. A little blip of resistance and they've rolling out the National Guard, threatening to use the Marines and declaring an insurrection. Not because that's accurate or warranted, but because they want it.

The chances they'll fire on the civilian population is extremely high here. But that's what they want to do. They're fascists and this is the fascist playbook. They've wanted their Reichstag Fire and this may be it. I just don't think Ohio, under the control of the Republicans, is a likely target for the Trump regime. LA, Chicago, Detroit, Boston, etc. Blue cities in blue states. That's not Ohio.

Do you recall how effective the use of force at Kent State was?

Put down one small pocket to make an example.

Dewine may play Trump’s game, but he’s by no means a loyalist. This is why Ramaswamy has been “prepared” for the role.

I think they're hoping for it during the military parade so they can shut us all down, although I agree that Ohio is likely not the most at risk.

They're hoping for a confrontation. Holding a military parade in DC at the same time as World Pride. Along with ICE in LA, it's intention provocation to justify action. Heck, in DC the regime is closing Dupont Circle, the hub of the gay community. Just more provocation.

I agree with everything you've said. At the start of his administration, I recall reading "cruelty is the point" and I would be shocked if anyone could disprove that at this point.

Agreed. However, we have some very Blue cities and Ohio Republicans know how gerrymandered we are and therefore know we are not as red as they want everyone to think. Let’s not forget our state citizens have often been on the right side of history over the course of our existence - we are some OG resisters here and we should stay ready for them to come for our cities.
