@SrRochardBunson Wow! Quite apart from the great things he is saying - what a natural orator. Terrified, but not backing down and still able to move me and hopefully persuade those he was addressing with his eloquence and obvious passion.

@MatthewNewell @SrRochardBunson all of
That yes but also, that’s just a regular guy from
The neighborhood using his voice. Keep in mind he’s speaking to 18-30 year old natl gaurd troops (children), who’ve been brain washed into defending the cult and *hite supremacy.

Ice is unconstitutional, illegal, and a rogue agency.

@SrRochardBunson

That was very powerful ✊
It reminded me of the protests in the 60's and 70's we went to.

@maddad @SrRochardBunson What boggles me - as a GenXer about all this tyranny and oppression bullshit is where is the flower power generation that spend the 60s and 70s fighting "the man" and fighting for goodness.

Are they not like in charge now?

@tezoatlipoca @SrRochardBunson

A lot of us are too old to fight...
The fight we started in the 60's and 70's never ended...
We've been fighting all this time but no one noticed. Now it may be too late.

@tezoatlipoca @maddad @SrRochardBunson my mom is in her 70s. She protested the Vietnam War. She's not to my knowledge wading into the thick of things, but she's been to a few protests this year.

Her generation was relentlessly propagandized to convince them that only nonviolent resistance is good...

@SrRochardBunson

The irony of it being at the VA building when support for veterans is being slashed.

@SrRochardBunson I do too!!! They've been doing it here also!  #FuckICE

@SrRochardBunson I feel like the most effective group to go talk to these kiddy feds like this would be high school football coaches. Hey kid, this what you signed up for?

These are people who peaked in high school. Send someone with experience with them.

@mossyfoot @SrRochardBunson This is a harsh and dismissive take on the #NationalGuard servicemen and servicewomen. One of the reasons this speaker is so effective is the respect with which he addresses them.
@emilyh @SrRochardBunson I will show them respect when they earn it with their behavior, just like anyone else.
@mossyfoot @SrRochardBunson Insulting people is your default position. Got it.
Well said. I need to work on being eloquent when angry. I think if I were confronting them I’d just be screaming obscenities and insults, which doesn’t help.
@SrRochardBunson Bro doesn’t need a bullhorn; he is a bullhorn.
@SrRochardBunson
This is feckin beautiful! I hope he got one or two of them to think.

@SrRochardBunson
We need somebody to print up something like “red cards”

But for law enforcement/military people.

One side should be the oath with “support and defend the constitution of the United States” in BOLD.

Then on the reverse side?
Something like:
You do not have to carry out illegal orders (or orders that contradict your oath -whatever) and then have the support and assistance number/url that’s been floating around on the internet the past few days.

Print them on business cards - something small so they can be discreetly passed around or placed on vehicles.

@SrRochardBunson
Think about the people in the NG- many probably young, many looking for a way to get money for college or gain job skills

They probably aren’t even sure what their rights are *especially* in regards to questionable orders.

(Now I’m wondering if the military still does that “path to citizenship” thing. Ugh…)

@MsMerope @SrRochardBunson I'm starting a movement. I have a shirt that clearly says "I will not take the mark of the beast"

@SrRochardBunson "They're attacking us with words!"
"CALL THE NATIONAL GUARD!"

Fascists are such cowards.

#ICEProtests #USPOL #Fascists

@SrRochardBunson Sadly they probably have wireless earbuds in . They are probably listening to death metal and cannot hear a word he says.

@SrRochardBunson

It's a start! What a guy!

Tianamen Square....

@SrRochardBunson

The guy is a genuine hero!
This is what America needs!
Righteous and honest people standing for their community.

@SrRochardBunson Fools they are indeed

They are choosing for this, instead of standing up

Resist! 💪

@SrRochardBunson oh hes yelling at the national guard isnt he? at first i thought it was just the lapd which has never ever worked, they have no humanity to appeal to i still have tiiiiny hopes for the national guard!

@SrRochardBunson That's Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn's son Wyatt.

Wyatt Russell - Wikipedia

@ildiavolorosso @SrRochardBunson source for this claim? He looks vaguely like him but other than that I'm not sure
@SrRochardBunson Is he running for office??? He should.
@SrRochardBunson
What a brave man!
THIS (!) IS AMERICA!
@SrRochardBunson Goldie Hawn & Kurt Russell’s kid apparently.
@SrRochardBunson For those who heard this awesome protestor was Wyatt Russell, according to this Rolling Stone article, it is not Wyatt Russell. Image is a screenshot from the article. Full article here.

@cfmccarthy That makes sense; his dad is a vocal libertarian.

@SrRochardBunson

For those “Just following orders” … (note not exactly Trump Tower accomodation.)

@SrRochardBunson This man is a spokesperson for courage and honour in the face of a totalitarian US govt heading towards dictatorship.
@SrRochardBunson the problem is that yes, they do feel good about this.
@SrRochardBunson He's a good speaker, but it still feels a bit too nationalistic for my liking.
