Just say it as it is, they executed a US citizen.

Executed yet _another_ US citizen.

This is going to keep happening.

Over, and over, and over again, until ICE is disbanded and those involved are held accountable. When that happens (and how high the casualty number gets) is up to the American people.

Regarding just the headline, at this point it's not really about immigration, this has evolved into a soft civil conflict being waged for political reasons. The two people who have been killed so far were themselves citizens and at best were political dissidents. They were not themselves subject to detainment due to immigration status.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

1. The are not going to investigate it. Totally legit right? 2. This regime likes to post deepfakes (even president himself). Why do you have urge to defend these pedophiles?

I feel like open armed conflict between anti-fascist groups and these federal goons is inevitable at this point. When it happens it will be used as pretext for a wider more brutal occupation and will be used as extenuating circumstances to 'bend the rules' come election time.

The winning move here is continued nonviolent opposition, but it only takes one spark to start a fire then who knows what happens

On the flip side: where did the idea that it’s illegal to obstruct a belligerent person who does not clearly identify themselves as a law enforcement officer come from?

Sounds like ICE's official word right now is that the guy had a gun. But the video clearly indicates that they all tackled him to the ground and were wrestling him maybe 4 vs 1, before they all shot him together. I'm not quite sure how a gun can have come out of this. Maybe the guy while struggling on the ground happened to reach in the direction of someone's gun while getting curbstomped, I dunno. What I'm most worr…

It's always been strange to me that Americans are allowed to exercise their 2nd Amendment rights...until they get killed by police. Then they should've known not to exercise their 2nd Amendment rights.

The group of Americans who are the loudest at cheering for the 2nd Amendment rights are cheering for ICE these days. To them, "the security of a free State" means that it has a caste system with the "good guys" at the top, and when ICE goons execute Minnesotans, they see brave armed citizens fighting back against the tyranny of wokeness.
