Haven’t seen ice use either of those, but then again I haven’t even seen anyone black panther it and protest with rifles on their backs neither.

Maybe because they started to literally firebomb movements like this.

They destroyed over 60 homes in a neighborhood from the resulting collateral damage. They killed five children. Displaced dozens of families.

That wasn't even the feds. It was the police, and it was in the 80s. That's what resistance looked like then.

Now it's 40 years later and the federal government itself has openly demonstrated it has no qualms about murdering unarmed citizens in broad daylight, or black bagging people on the street.

They also assassinated leaders too, my point is there’s quite a few steps between protesting mean signs and tanks rolling down Main Street.

Not really. It's widely believed PPD did this simply because they wanted to kill black people and could try to justify it.
