I guess we're ignoring the fact that they've kidnapped US citizens because they were brown.

"Don't be a minority" is a rule so deeply ingrained in their ethos they think it's universally understood already.

Renee Good did none of those things.

[–] ThePantser@sh.itjust.works 38 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Well she did obey them but they gave conflicting instructions and shot her anyways.

[–] Phil_in_here@lemmy.ca 32 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Important to note for clarity, disobeying an officer's instructions is NOT the same as disobeying the law.

[–] scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech 27 points 2 months ago

And neither are supposed to be punishable by death.

[–] PizzaLamp25@lemmy.world 44 points 2 months ago

Step 1, everyone is illegal except for the people that were already here if you wanna get technical.

Step 2, maybe ICE shouldn't attack us, it's self defense from the very beginning

Step 3, oh boy. Maybe ICE and supporters should do a better job at following those laws and not take orders from a guy with 37+ felonies.

Food for thought unless you're to dumb to eat

i have a white supremacist translating device, here goes:

  1. be white, or else
  2. stop resisting! 🐽
  3. don't leave your house if you're not white
[–] Hawk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Rule 1 and 3 don't even apply anymore

[–] 18107@aussie.zone 3 points 2 months ago

Rule 2 doesn't help because they will deliberately give conflicting instructions and shoot anyway.

How to avoid ICE:

  • Dont be a US citizen
  • Dont be pulling out of your driveway
  • Dont leave room and wave them by in traffic
  • Dont be friendly and tell them "I'm not mad at you"
[–] 18107@aussie.zone 9 points 2 months ago

Don't sleep in your own bed in your own home either.

These don't work. "Be white" used to apply for a while but even that doesn't anymore. I think now it is "be white and suck up to fascists"

[–] SharkAttak@kbin.melroy.org 19 points 2 months ago

"In today's news, another us citizen of non-pale complexion was arrested by ICE, despite being married and working here for 20+ years."

"Sounds like my friends and I can show up at your door in fake ICE outfits and make your gargle on our balls. And if you refuse, we'll beat your ass, and you won't do anything about it."

  3. Turn on the tv and tune into the American news and have #Popcorn 🍿 ready to enjoy the shitshow

¹Unfortunately I'm not privilaged enough for this :/

[–] logicbomb@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

"How to avoid I.C.E." Notice how it doesn't say, "How to safely get through an encounter with I.C.E."

It's always interesting how much people's specific choice of words betrays their true feelings. The only reasonable goal with ICE is to avoid them, because once you encounter them, your safety cannot be guaranteed, no matter the circumstances.

Also, it's quite a laugh for a Trump supporter to suggest that people should "Obey federal and state laws." Trump doesn't even think he should have to follow the Constitution, which is the basis upon which all of those state and federal laws can be enforced.

They're complaining about other people accidentally breaking a building's windows while they're intentionally destroying its foundation.

Could you move your mouse?

i couldn't figure out what was going on. first time the cursor got in the screenshot and i couldn't get it out

[–] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

How to avoid being deported by ICE:

  • Be white and join ICE
[–] 18107@aussie.zone 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Not guaranteed to work. What if you're off duty and they don't believe you when you say you work with them?

They already ignore passports, birth certificates, driver's licences and social security cards.

[–] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago

Be on crystal meth and work 24/7, problem solved.

i dunno, the screenshot says it's not him. might be doctored

Whoever he is, he writes ok.

[–] kayohtie@pawb.social 7 points 2 months ago

Love how this most basic image of text still looks like it has the fucking piss filter on it.

Guess licking that boot made them too stupid for mspaint even.

"White Christians accepted only."

Sundely they became “please thread on me”

Even after ICE detains or even deports (or murders) US citizens and legal residents, they still have the nerve to say this.

[–] Taldan@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

ICE is so clearly operating outside the bounds of the law. They do not have any jurisdiction to enforce state laws, yet we're being told encounters with ICE are justified if we don't obey state laws?

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 months ago

ICE Barbie has her army of dogs, and you know what she wants done to dogs

Sassafrass84 doing another bang-up job of demonstrating why persons strapping their heads to a running buzzsaw sometimes leaves them completely unchanged

[–] HollowNaught@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

This also has the AI text, no?

[–] kali_fornication@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

seriously? dude it's just text

[–] HollowNaught@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (3 children)

It's hard to describe, but text in AI generated images tends to have the same font and colour pallet

(The image shared by the oop, not the one you posted to be clear)

[–] Tyber_Zann@feddit.nl 3 points 2 months ago

Yup, it definitely is. Like you said, it’s hard to explain but you can just tell after seeing a couple of them.

[–] bbboi@feddit.uk 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

AI explicitly generates images based on what it was trained on. If nobody used this color scheme then AI wouldn't have generated it because it couldn't have been trained on it.

The background color evokes paper, especially older paper. It's a common motif.

I dropped the bomb that ICE according to their stats is one of the only agencies that doesnt make mistakes, and my distrust the goverment familey thought i was giving them genuine praise. Like the idea that they could even have faults is beyond the pale for some. Its insane

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 3 points 2 months ago

So this person must agree that when you do all those things and ICE still gets you, there should be hell to pay for those officers, correct?
