It was a straight up murder by a trigger happy cop who was told they are immune to any prosecution by the president of the united states.
ICE is going to start murdering thousands of us and none of them will be held accountable. It's terrifying that ICE is a bunch of proud boys and fascists with a thirst for blood. We are all in trouble and all of us risk dying just going out to the store if you are in the wrong place at the wrong time.
If you want them held accountable then it's time to take matters into our own hands. It really is time for us to start shooting ICE on sight if we want to keep our communities safe. What other choice have they left us?
Heller said she heard ICE agents telling the driver, a woman, to “get out of here.”“She was trying to turn around, and the ICE agent was in front of her car, and he pulled out a gun and put it right in — like, his midriff was on her bumper — and he reached across the hood of the car and shot her in the face like three, four times,” Heller said.
Heller said it appeared the woman accelerated, and traveled about 100 feet before striking a utility pole and some other vehicles, and could be seen slumped over inside her car.
Horrifying
ICE is almost forcing citizens to carry guns wherever they go. Civil war could be back in play.
It's almost like the president is a Russian asset installed to split the country
Psh if you believe that just because they wrote it in a book and have been caught doing it multiple times then you're just an unfortunate victim of western propaganda.
/s if that wasn't obvious
Fuck this hurts. Probably because it's so true. I really don't want it to come to it, but I'm gradually realizing I may have to protect myself from people I know and love.
What is it about giving permission for violence that draws people? Like I'm an ex boxer, and even I avoid street fights at all cost!
The media is painting her as a criminal.
This is the beginning. Mass shooting of protesters will be next.
When will centrists realize that this isn't a both sides thing?
I am disgusted and scared, fuck the center of this country that ignored these problems until they tore it apart.
If a "centrist" can't tell the difference between Nazi gestapo and people who just want to live their lives, they are indistinguishable from Nazis themselves and should be treated as such
Abolishing ICE is the moderate position. Anyone who doesn’t think that organization needs to be completely dismantled at minimum either needs to wake the fuck up or is a fascist.
after seeing this video, I am now of the position that every ICE agent should be attacked on sight
this is indefensible
This is fascism.
People are dying. People will continue to die. I'm saddened and scared by what is happening
While speaking at an unrelated press conference in Brownsville, Texas, Kristi Noem said today’s shooting in Minneapolis was provoked by an “act of domestic terrorism”.
The homeland security went on to say that the immigration agents on the scene were “attempting to push out their vehicle” due to the snow in the city. “The woman attacked them and those surrounding them and attempted to run them over and ram them with her vehicle. An officer of ours acted quickly and defensively shot to protect himself and the people around him,” Noem said.
This dumb bitch seems to think outright lying - when video shows a completely different story - is the way to go.
Russia's authoritarian playbook (which the current GOP administration is using) isn't about lying in an articulate way. It's about flooding the zone with excuses and lies such that the average person will choose to tune it out rather than to engage.
Meanwhile trump posted this, disgusting. How deep the USA has sank, my god
That mother fucker WALKED over to the victims car, while putting his gun away! "Scared for his life"? "In the hospital recovering"?
This stupid fucking "president" of ours has lost his fucking mind if he believes the shit coming from his mouth!
He fucking knows that the stupid fuckers that follow him will eat this shit up and believe anything he says.
GET THIS FUCKER OUT OF OFFICE!
FUCK trump! FUCK ice! FUCK nazis!
fuck.....
Edit: Bot?! Look at my profile, dickhead!
Make fun of how I talk all you want. It was still murder.
I'm glad I'm not American. The US is a failed country right now. Zero respect for human life. I never intended to visit it as a tourist, and now I know I won't.
Ice shot citizen for exercising constitutionally protected right
Police surround your car and they are trying to get in and you want to leave?
American police are allowed to kill you.
You surround a police car and you make them feel unsafe and they want to leave?
American police are allowed to kill you.
She was given conflicting commands, one to move the car and one to get out of the car. She was literally complying with their commands.
I'm literally shaking right now. This is my state. The video is horrible.
God the fucking comments on that video saying she was trying to run him over and “she wasn’t obeying an LEO”.
You can see the shooters feet not in front of the vehicle between the legs of the guy grabbing the door as she starts to turn. He was not about to be run over.
The shooter had his gun drawn approaching the front of the car to be able to shoot her that fast. No one else had their gun out. Why? That fuckhead is trigger happy and ready to kill.
How do we know she wasn’t trying to get out of the way and we can’t hear if she was saying anything like “let me move first”.
Didn't deserve to be shot in the face. She was unarmed. Also looks really fucking guilty when the shooter covers their face and flees the scene.
I wonder if they will be "unable to find him" because of the mask. If they can "Identify" Luigi by his eyebrows they should have no trouble prosecuting this human trash.
The governor and local officials dispute the federal government's version.
That's great. Now arrest the ICE agent for murder.
Hunt him down and hang him In front of city hall. Any Nazis in blue try to stop you, add them to the gallows.
These animals need to be put down, immediately.
The murderer will definitely get away with it. There will be more ICE agents doing the same thing, emboldened by this incident and the lack of consequences. After the hundredth murder, people are definitely going to start shooting ICE agents on sight. The only way out now is for the administration to punish these agents, but like I said, this will definitely not happen.
After a while, it won't even be about immigration any more. ICE will have become a symbol of Trump and his power.
That was straight up murder.
“Today, that recklessness cost someone their life,” he said, adding that it was "predictable and avoidable.”
That was not "recklessness". Drinking milk after five vodka shots is recklessness. It was murder. You don't accidentally murder someone.
I wrote and deleted a comment multiple times. I am convinced that violence is the only ethical option left to us. Every member of ICE and every Republican is a mass murderer and must be treated as such. No more amnesty for murderers, despots, fascists, or their supporters. They must be held accountable for their horrors and we cannot afford to wait. The world cannot afford to wait.
The video evidence disputes the federal government's version, I'm sure they'll just say AI, and continue as if nothing happened
It's abhorrent, but nothing will come from this.
This is what we were afraid of. And it happened.
It happened in Minnesota of all places.
Vive la révoution
With all the people that keep trying to run ICE agents over with their cars it's amazing that none of them have actually been hit yet.
If I thought I was going to die, my instinct would not be to whip out a pistol–it would be to get out of the way of the vehicle. In no world was this reaction justifiable, especially not by people in charge of serving and protecting. It's bullshit that this will be spun and forgotten by Saturday. You'll see MAGA celebrate like they did with Rittenhouse for the sane stupid things.
Meanwhile the administration only talks annexation of greenland (a USA ally). And no talks about revising or stop ICE untill this case has been solved, nothing. Just trump Saying his sorry.
This is not tragic, it is outrageous. At least, it would be in any other country that considers itself a constitutional state. This is nothing less than murder on behalf of the state - there is no other way to put it.
I cannot understand how US citizens can still believe that they live in a constitutional state despite all this. Every day there are reports like this that undoubtedly refute this naive assumption.
I have been noticing the increased anger with people's posts online, myself included. I just said yesterday that it feels like a tipping point and it's not gonna take much to start the riots. This event feels like a heavy hand on the scale pushing everyone over the edge. I hope it's not and we can continue the peaceful protests. But I don't blame anyone for taking a stand.
But I don't blame anyone for taking a stand.
I've said it before and I'll say it again.
If I'm the jury for someone accused of doing anything to an ICE agent, you will not be found guilty.
Okay now stop saying it so you can actually make it through jury selection.
Literal gestapo. If you're stopped by ICE, treat it like a life or death scenario and respond accordingly. They will either shoot you in the face, put you in a torture camp, or deport you to a country you have no connection to.
ICE says the woman, later identified as Renee Good, was shot in her car after attempting to run over agents.
Can we get the name of the SS officer who murdered her?
