Just a reminder that Kyle Rittenhouse, who the Proud Boys lionize as a hero, killed someone for allegedly damaging property.

It’s a bit more complicated than that.

Does the little P in their image mean they were one of the people foolish enough to verify their identity with a driver’s license?

I’d be really curious how many requests for information various law enforcement agencies have already made at this point.

Apparently so:

For those of us who aren’t ā€œverified influencers,ā€ Parler is more like watching conversations play out from behind a screen, rather than participating in them. Posts from people with small followings get drowned out by Parler’s celebrities. I tried to send a direct message to Matze on the platform and found that I couldn’t because I did not have a ā€œverified real personā€ badge on Parler, which requires sending a photo of identification, like a driver’s license, to the platform. In a twist of fate, Parler had left me silenced—not so much a public square or even a social network, but a place where only the pundits get to speak.

I do enjoy the part where Trump’s campaign team is immune to the ā€œno spamā€ policy.

Seems like it’d be pretty trivial to just send them a fake id.

Based on the user posted above, it looks like any believable picture will do, as that doesn’t look like a DL pic. I’d guess it gets put through some sort of database to look for fakes, so Doomguy or Ayn Rand portraits won’t cut it, but you could probably get away with posting some rando’s pic.

The profile pic isn’t the pic you send in

What’s the official antifa uniform? I’m assuming a hoodie of some sort. Bandanas? There should be bandanas.



The one thing I love is that when a Proud Boys news bit makes it to the reddit front page, I can count on reddit for some nickname laughs:

Gravy Seals
Meal Team Six
Vanilla ISIS
Talibama
Methamphetamarines
Ya’ll Qa’ida
Cosplaytraitots
Q Kucks Klan
Wal-martyrs
The Green Buffets
Delta Forks
The Insulin Resistance
Yee-Hawdists
Chicken Wing-Fidels
MAGA-hideen
Yokel Haram

… and on they go. I can think of nothing better suited to those idiots than the entire rest of the nation making absolute fun of them. Social ostracizing at its finest.

It was just very fine people.

I hope that neither is arrested.

Until after January 20th.

Sounds like a knife collector with only enough ammo to last for a year or two of range practice shooting. Nothing sensational, except the threat.

Ammo hoarding I get, but what’s up with the knives? I’m imagining a trench coat full of knives but that doesn’t get anywhere near 75. All hidden around the house so there is always one within reach?
