      I’d say ‘unbelievable’ but it’s very believable. They just fucking executed that guy.

        And they maced him before that. This dude was virtually incapable of posing a threat. The DHS narrative is insane. He was fucking trying to help two women being shoved around by ice lol. Who can watch this and not see the diabolical lies?

      Yeah that’s cold blooded murder alright. This group of fat fucks couldn’t even take one guy and so they killed him out of spite. It’s going downhill with the USA at an accelerating pace.

          When I see police shootings like this, I always wonder how unarmed British cops would handle such a situation. I’m against defunding the police in general, but defunding their gun budget I think would go a long, long way.

            I think removing their union protections (I’m a union member and I don’t think they should be afforded the same types of protections since they’re not labor, they’re the armed section of government who are the only ones allowed to use force on the citizens) and making them carry insurance would be a start. Then, moving their budget to do something about the fact that so many of their calls are to deal with mental health crises which they’re not trained for. Plus, for as large as their budgets are, I’d expect better results in solving crimes. Lots of police departments average something like 25% solve rate which includes things like when people turn themselves in.

      In that moment, they learned this is real life. They all clearly aren’t trained. If they were to be attacked by someone else with a real weapon, they would literally piss themselves. They should not be in the position they are in, where that is a real potential outcome in their line of work.

      They’re also all going to have that memory seared into their minds for the rest of the years, whether they face real consequences or not. I hope the trauma ends their lives early as well, if I were then I’d be thinking about turning the gun on myself after doing that to an innocent man. But then again, I’m a human being

    The fascists wouldn’t behave this way if they thought there was any chance of repercussions.

    I guarantee they will be outside polling places wherever the constituents have IQs above room temperature.

      Seems like they need to fear repercussions.

      Since I’m in Canada and safe from the five eyes bullshit now…

      Do ICE agents have radio systems? What happens if you manage to separate a couple of them?

      Do they go outside to smoke when they’re at their hotels? Getting shot at on a smoke break seems pretty scary.

          I actually agreed with this sentiment until fairly recently, but it turns out these guys are so fucking stupid that everyone is in danger just by having them around.

          They might start shooting people in the face or the back. Do not resist ICE or they could knock down doors and drag people away without warrants.

          yeah, I’m aware… I’m also aware that we’re decoupling from sharing intel with the US, and that Canada’s not going to extradite me to this administration.

      Don’t worry about. The second amendment crowd is about to stop them. I have been assured by decades of talk that they all needed to keep there guns and use the second amendment to protect and defend the Constitution.

    So far what’s been identified is the murder victim was a 37-year-old white male, a resident of Minneapolis, with no criminal past beyond traffic tickets and a legal gun owner.

    They claim he had a gun, obviously. From the video it’s impossible to tell if he did.

    To be precise, they claim ‘they were approach by a man with a gun’ and that ‘officers tried to disarm the man but ended up shooting him dead.’ which is obviously a lie. They attacked him and tried to arrest him for protesting. By the time they might have noticed a gun (if he had one) 5 guys were already trying to pin him down. Cold blooded murder.

    So I wonder what the hypocrites in the NRA will also be handling this now that a law abiding gun owner was murdered by the Republican government.
