In addition to pursuing the death penalty where possible, the Attorney General shall, where consistent with applicable law, pursue Federal jurisdiction and seek the death penalty regardless of other factors for every federal capital crime involving:
(i) The murder of a law-enforcement officer; or
(ii) A capital crime committed by an alien illegally present in this country.
The Attorney General shall encourage State attorneys general and district attorneys to bring State capital charges for all capital crimes with special attention to the crimes described in Subsections (i) and (ii), regardless of whether the federal trial results in a capital sentence.
So the implication, not letter, of the 2nd ammendment gives US citizens the right to shoot cops if they are acting as an extension of a tyrannical state. I wonder if there is a case to be made that this executive order infringes on the constitution.
Of course, I don’t expect any 2A stans to care.That second line is the first bit of result after over a year of both parties fearmongering about “the immigrant crisis”. Deeply racist and violent country I hate this shit so much.
pursue Federal jurisdiction and seek the death penalty regardless of other factors
That’s terrifying but seems badly written from a practical standpoint. If the AG is compelled to always go for death regardless of other factors it may sway juries to not convict in more cases where the death penalty really isn’t deserved, and let free somebody who might have otherwise spent a reasonable (note: I say reasonable by the standards of our sick and twisted justice system) amount of time in prison.
That’s actually a really good point! This rule could backfire for maga. We the people should just nullify every trial.
So this means if you shoot a cop, don’t stop after the first, right?
Seriously, WTF
Actually that’s how I read this. So you’re already going to die. Might as well take out as many of them as possible.
In Minecraft.
What if a cop kills another cop?
Is that like dividing by zero?
They receive the worst possible punishment for cop: paid leave for 3 months, and then forced to apply at a different police district a town over.
So, by this decree, the maga ass hats that killed the cops on J6 should be put to death, right? Right???
Unfortunately none of the families of cops that died from Jan 6 trauma were able to have it classified as “line of duty,” as far as I’m aware.
And just like that, law-enforcement is now officially SS.
So what if you kite one of them around until its attacks hit another cop?
This is terrifying. Please read this. Spread the word and be safe out there. They want to kill you.
I fear any time a cop dies, they’re going to look for someone to blame and have them executed.
They already do that.
Mr. 4D Chess has gone straight to trading pawns.
Bad trade when the other side has a lot more pawns available…
The chussmasta
Unless Trump disagrees with it then Trump will pardon them.
Why not just make every crime a federal crime. And then king Trump can decide all by himself what crime is ok and what crime is not.
Yeah didn’t he just pardon 1,500 of them? I realize that not all of them actually got the chance to kill a cop that day, but some did and most seemed to be trying real hard to.
They’re all at least accessories to murder.

Every single one of those shit bags.
Weren’t some of them cops themselves?
He’s trying to prevent an uprising. Just don’t get caught.
How pro-life of them
It will be selectively enforced. Oath Keepers and Proud Boys who beat cops using their “patriotic” flagpoles will be allowed to go free. Those less white will be executed in the street for masking a cop feel uncomfortable. Those who attempt to defend themselves from fascists trying to send their families to concentration camps will be executed in the camps.
I thought the word “alien” was just some sarcastic paraphrasing.
It isn’t. They really used the word alien.
Nah, it’s a legal term. I would guess it’s where we get aliens in the outer space concept as the word existed well before. Yeah 13th to 14the century. The spaceman version is from the 1950s (edit: per etymonline)
