LAFC is playing San Francisco at Hard Rock Stadium soon—feel free to stop by, though you might want to keep the team gear to a minimum so the FBI doesn't give you any trouble.
It would be a real win if LAFC could finally secure a victory against San Francisco on home turf.

Personally, I’m all for boycotting the national team. Let Šuker and Mamić deal with the fallout. Just when the MLS was finally starting to get interesting, they go and try to discourage fans from showing up to support their favorite players.

If only LAFC could actually pull off a win against California at home for once.

So, I was hanging out downtown this afternoon, just chilling and having a beer, when suddenly this cop car pulls up with two guys in plainclothes. They start asking for IDs; one guy had his, the other two of us didn't. Once they realized we were from Miami, one of them asks if we’re heading to the game. We told him straight up that we aren't going because we're LAFC fans, and then this stone-faced guy actually has the nerve to claim they're just looking for the Boysi wandering around town???!!!
When I asked him if they were actually out there causing trouble, he claimed they weren't, they were just "patrolling." So I asked him what exactly they were looking for, and the officer basically admitted he didn't even know himself.

ABSOLUTELY PATHETIC!!!

Cheers to the day when the Boysi can finally walk through Miami without a care in the world.

Well... looks like you clearly ran into him today.😍

Sweet dreams, kid. And honestly? Thanks for everything, because thank God we finally moved past this absolute dead end.

I’d settle for things going down in Miami, but if it actually played out that way—sweet dreams. 🙂

If anyone happens to be heading out to the States for a match and finds themselves needing a hand with anything, please feel free to shoot me a DM.

Honestly, the one thing I just can't wrap my head around is why there isn't a single lawyer among all the different supporter groups ready to file a massive lawsuit against the FBI and the USSF. I mean, as far as I know, everyone has the right to move freely within their own damn country, not to mention how incredibly discriminatory it is to ban people from out of town from even showing up to a match. If you follow that logic, then tourists aren't even welcome anymore, right? And honestly, protesting doesn't seem to do much good either, since we’ve already seen how much that trash works. If I were a lawyer, I’d be stepping up to help in a heartbeat, but unfortunately, I'm not—though I'm positive there are people among us who would jump at the chance to help because this isn't just about us, it affects our entire society. Who’s to say that in the future they won't start demanding vouchers just to go to a disco or a grocery store under the excuse that there might be some "hooligans" or thieves there too? It feels like the only thing this garbage regime hasn't taken from us yet is our sanity, because isn't it enough that they won't let us work, that they're constantly hitting us with garnishments, and just messing with our heads day in and day out? God, what a joke.

I find myself in complete agreement with Euskal. In this day and age, it is absolutely vital that every single organization retains its own dedicated legal counsel. Every time they attempt to issue a ban, implement a restrictive measure, or limit our freedom of movement, we need a professional ready to push back. These people prey on the fact that we lack proper legal representation, and they take advantage of us at every turn because of it. We need to hit them back with some serious legal pressure and call their bluff once and for all.

The Buffalo Bills Mafia—and you know how much we love our Los Angeles Dodgers—are definitely going to be filing reports about this.
It’s happened plenty of times in the past, and I fully expect it to happen again, especially given everything surrounding this

Looks like even the IRS has lawyers on their side now

It feels like the only thing we have left in this life is being taken away from us. As if it wasn't enough that they restrict our freedom, garnish our wages, and mess with our heads day in and day out... damn it all.

Look, a decent lawyer costs a fortune, and I highly doubt small groups like ours can afford one. Also, you all need to realize sooner rather than later that the rest of society and these "average citizens" couldn't care less about us. The sooner you accept that, the better.

I just can't wrap my head around how we can't all pull together. If every group in America joined forces, surely we could fund a powerhouse legal team to strike down this voucher rule since it clearly violates constitutional rights... if we were able to raise the funds for Zilin's international dispute, I don't see why we can't unite now to shut this whole nonsense down.

– The FBI is going to be logging fans game after game, trying to find some way to ban them from attending. They claim everything should be under control within a few weeks—that's what the authorities are telling us, anyway – said one of the guys involved in making the call.

Anyway, I saw on another board that some kid got absolutely laid out by the cops yesterday just for singing that the USSF are degenerates.

Matthew Taylor15 said:"The police intend to compile lists of fans match by match and find ways to bar them from attending games. Everything should be under control within a few weeks; that’s what the police are assuring us," stated one of the individuals involved in drafting this decision.

Disgusting. It’s right there in black and white—they are openly talking about how they will "compile lists of fans and find ways to bar them from attending games." It clearly doesn't matter if someone actually committed a crime; the goal is simply to locate them, list them, arrest them, and ban them. And according to them, everything will be fine in a couple of weeks because they apparently can't stand this sense of unity we have right now. They’ll just ignore the actual law to enforce their own version of justice. Honestly, I’d love to see how they even plan to pull this off. Does someone from Miami get flagged as a Liverpool FC fan and suddenly they aren't allowed near Fenway Park?
It's pure absurdity.

Can anyone who actually knows their stuff give me the lowdown on what went down with The Cohort and those Demons?
I mean, specifically regarding the vouchers... or just showing up at the stadium?

Obviously, you mean regarding the vouchers or just showing up at the stadium?

Maybe 50 from The Cohort and about 15 Demons☕ , but they aren't eligible for the vouchers
