fear the reaper, or the governmental agent sent in as the reaper.

Until the reaper fears the reaped this will continue, be that through limited immunity revocation active resistance or direct retaliation. It is up to them, (.gov officials) to determine where the line stops.

That's because "red-flag" raids need "red-flag" calls.

Someone has to drop a dime to get po-po to respond. No call, no "red-flag" raid.

A soccer-mom is happy to drop a dime on her neighbor who was running his lawnmower a little too early for her taste last weekend, but a gangbanger has too much honor to call po-po on even his most hated rival. He might take opposing gangbanger down himself, but he won't call a "red-flag" on him.

Lot easier to start with the neighborhoods full of people with soft hands and soft bellies and plenty to lose.
