Remember when the Chinese protests in Tianmen square happened the regime was afraid that sending in local troops to deal with the protestors would run the risk on them joining in or refusing to follow orders because they were familiar with people in the crowds. They instead sent troops from other regions that didn’t have the same issues and we all know how that ended.

If Trump ends up sending the NG from a red state where people think California is some dangerous “third world country” as some representative said not long ago there is a chance it would end up the same as Tianmen. I really hope that doesn’t come to pass, people don’t deserve to be massacred for speaking their minds.

Curious to see how the EU and other European countries will respond. One of the people on board is a EU PM.

Besides Greta the boat had people from many other European countries such as France, Spain, Germany and the Netherlands. There are also a Turk and a Brazilian on board.

I really hope the people on board are safe. They don’t deserve this.

Isn’t boarding and taking over a ship in international waters piracy?

Nah. Discord keeps the messages. Way too much accountability.
