Shot from behind by federal agents, seems the key missing element of that title.

If you treat people as a group, they tend to lock together as a group. The police are already getting pissed off with ICE, in many places. That crack needs to be pryed open. Indifferent, pissed off police/FBI etc is a lot better than them standing in lockstep with ICE.

This is really some russia level shit.

[–] toofpic@lemmy.world 80 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Even in Russia, people are not being shot on the streets: detained, beaten up, etc - yes (I'm not saying this is good of course), but not shot. The US quickly took the lead in some of the dystopian stuff.

russia, putin banned gun ownership, he doesnt want a violent uprising of his own. its only matter of time before trump does it. also most of trumps administration are hiding like rats on military bases.

[–] toofpic@lemmy.world 26 points 5 months ago

It's not Putin who banned something, guns were historically harder to own in Russia, and USSR before.
And gun ownership doesn't really help in the US right now. People sit with their guns being quiet.

[–] 0x0@lemmy.zip 13 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Most civilized countries ban or severely limit gun ownership.
As does Russia.
The US has always been the outlier in that regard.

Jimenez pulled up to three immigration officers, two from Border Patrol and another form ICE and “engaged in a verbal altercation,” it states.

It doesn’t even get any better if you just accept their version of what happened. Six agents vs one guy in a “verbal altercation”, and they think it’s ok to just start blasting?

[–] lefthandeddude@lemmy.dbzer0.com 40 points 5 months ago (13 children)

At this point, ICE is just a group of people who harass Latinos based on racist criteria. It doesn't even have to do with immigration.

As a white person, I think of the German people who did nothing when Jewish people were gradually stripped of rights, before the eventual death camps, and I'm not actually sure of what to do. I also am not really convinced that there are no Latinos being sent to death camps right now. If there were, would I know somehow?

My political views are somewhat moderate. I just don't like racism.

Is there anything I can do that will have any meaningful impact on protecting Latinos from this racism? I do not consider protests to be meaningful and I am not asking for any suggestions that are illegal, especially since the government probably trolls these posts. I feel like I'm being a bad person by doing nothing.

Supposedly that’s already happening. Many of the people that were sent to alligator Alcatraz were never seen again. They weren’t traceable. And yet neighboring countries are reportedly finding bodies washing up on their shores. The running theory is that the US has been flying them out into the ocean, dropping them in there to drown to disappear them. It’s horribly evil, and yet it’s plausible.

We’re almost to the end of the end of the poem. I fully expect to hear “and then they came for me“ any day now

I'm German and when I was in elementary school in the 90s we learned about the Nazi regime. An old woman visited our class to talk about what is was like for her as a child under Hitler. I remember that she said some people just disappeared and noone really knew why. There were rumours about prisons or labor camps but noone knew for sure what happened to the people who disappeared. She only learned about the concentration camps after the war was over.

I bet in a decade or so we will learn about all the horrors that are really going on right now.

There are two very obvious peices that show the government side is lieing... 1 - a spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security, said ... 2 - Then the agent “holstered” his fire arm

The main requirement to be a spokesperson for anything in this administration is to lie. And ICE has orders to escalate, not descalate.

This comment section is full of fedposting.

[–] DeathByBigSad@sh.itjust.works 26 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Fr, people need to stop treating the internet as equivalent to IRL discussions. Like literally every comment is "shoot your local cop", I mean like, I'm not saying that I disagree with the sentiment, but like... seriously lol? How is suicide by cop gonna change anything?

Just as with computers, your brain also needs a "firewall".

Real talk. People like to pretend they are the boogie man the right is trying to create. But outside of the superhero frog, most of us are just regular people.

ICE executes a US citizen with a shot in the back of the head in front of children.

Here, I fixed the headline for you.

[–] silence7@slrpnk.net 137 points 5 months ago (15 children)

Per the article:

unnecessarily shot in the back of his right shoulder where a bullet remains lodged

He is still alive

[–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 27 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

ICE attempts to murder a US citizen with a shot in the back of the head in front of children.

Nailed it?

Totally, this headline is not nearly sensationalist and misleading enough for my taste.

I liked the part where the victem is named but none of the ICE agents are identified. "Officer N.J." is all they say.
