    A fluorescent orange vest would help with target acquisition/identification in a crowded Environment

    Wait. Suggestions from the viewpoint of which side.

    Either way go with the orange target errrr vest.

    One half-decent four man fireteam would clean that place out in about 4 hours. Those little soy boys would not know what hit them.

    That it hasn't happened yet amazes me. Declaring a new nation in downtown Seattle is sedition. Where the hell is General Sherman when you need him?

    Not worth the blowback and same as in Buffalo a response is their desire.

    Let it fall of its own weight.

    Only lasting impression of Occupy Boston is that a beautiful little girl was conceived there but two years later her piece of shit parents killed her and tossed her in Boston Harbor.

    This is the shit that comprises these movements.

    I don’t think anyone is all that interested In Putting in the effort to “liberate” Seattle..... just to hand it right back over to the Commie fucks that invited ANTIFA in in the first place.

    If this happened anywhere other than a commie run shithole...guys would be stacking bodies...

    I'm pretty sure the guy in the second picture doesnt have any plates in that carrier.

    Lab goggles are hot.

    I'm going to guess these guys are part of their new 'security force' that basically now keep the other communists in line and wear this shit whole going around and extorting local businesses.

    They're in a defined static location with a soft perimeter that wouldn't allow much in the ways of recon patrols. That means they're basically stuck where they are and can't control or disrupt anything outside of the controlled area.

    Let's assume that it wasn't in Seattle, where the politicians are totally ok with this and anyone fighting them would get in more trouble than being a communist squatter would. Additionally, they would have needed to have done something to allow for a ROE where direct action was authorized and not hindered as well as have lost any popular support.

    If that was all true, you wouldn't send in a squad(s) initially. Their weakness is that they all want to be communist gangsters until its time to do communist gangster stuff. Since they have a soft perimeter, gathering intel on their numbers via both watching who does what with who and finding their social media accounts online, interactions and the 'flow' of how their day to day operations work as well as any fracturing/conflicting interests within the group would be the initial step. Additionally, having friendly forces do a bit of COIN with the businesses/inhabitants just outside the soft permieter at this time is key to prevent any symphathetic resupply or chance of expansion.

    After finding out who the 'leaders' and key members who are seen as in charge are, their role and how it relates to keeping everything glued together as well as if someone/who would fill in that role if that leader was to not be there any more, decisions would be made to either capture or eliminate them specifically. This would begin rifts in the leadership structure as well as cause dissent/defection from the 'regular' folks which starts a slow trickle process that very rarely reverses itself, thus causing a snowball of issues over time. The main aspect you need to defeat here is their resolve and belief in their 'movement'; as soon as that begins to decay, tribalism and fracturing into groups begins and the defection and infighting become more common.

    When your observation (and through interrogation of defectors) tells you that you are near the peak of defections and that the fragmenting inside has settled, your intel gathering that has never stopped since the beginning again runs the same who/what/why analysis and a determination of select elimation, or direct action into the area is made.

    Sure, me and 3-4 guys with NV can go in and run n gun these guys, but why take any chances? Let them destroy themselves first, demoralize them and then destroy whats left.
     
    I don’t know about the rest of you guys, but when I’m on patrol in my AO, I always, ALWAYS make sure my sights are folded down. That way they don’t tangle in my purple bandana. Or my feather boa on Saturday nights! 🤣
     
    How about WE build a wall around THEIR perimeter? Make sure there is only one opening.

    Go ahead and let them have electricity and water, but shut off the food except what can be air lifted by drones. Let that go on for a while and then knock every fifth drone out of the air and just wait. As Hannibal Lector said, "when we run out of food, we still have each other."

    I have dibs on the popcorn concession.

    I'll be standing by for your team with some real medic stuff just in case. I got you.

    My neck really won't allow me to run and gun just yet.
