RE: ICE-involved shooting in Minneapolis
I don't know where people thinking they have a "right" to block traffic, ignore police officer's instructions, throw things at police officers, etc. began and why the media perpetuates it.
I think it is sad that this woman died but she shouldn't have put herself in that position in the first place. From reports she and her partner spent the day causing trouble, blocking traffic, and protesting illegally (obviously not legally).
Next, she was told to get out of the car and ignored the officer, then accelerated. If she had done what they told her to do she would be alive today.
People certainly have a right to protest. But they don't have a right to break the law to do it.

Libs - “cutting hiring standards for ICE is bad”
Also libs - “cutting hiring standard for DEI purposes is good”
Yet another hypocritical flip flop

Started with Obama and law enforcement. Now the hard core Dems have sided with the illegals because American citizens are leaving their bogus America hating political party.

RE: ICE-involved shooting in Minneapolis
I think it is a testament to how great the US has become, that people feel emboldened to use the pen in front of the sword, to hold a camera phone in front of a gun. I also think it is stupid to obstruct federal agents doing their job, if your only intent is to record them behaving badly. I think there is reasonable evidence that the agent feared for his life when he fired the first shot. It can't be an easy job.

RE: ICE-involved shooting in Minneapolis
In 2014 the border patrol studied their shootings and suspected that agents were intentionally putting themselves in front of vehicles to justify shooting. Apparently they still are.
"We initiated both internal and external use of force reviews to improve ourselves and our responsibility to the public and to use force only when necessary," Kerlikowske said in a statement. "This release and, most importantly, the policy and training changes they represent are the beginning of a continuous review of our responsibility to only use force when it is necessary to protect people."
As we've reported, the panel found that in many cases Border Patrol officers were discharging their weapons out of frustration, rather than to guard their safety. It also suggested that officers were purposely placing themselves in front of moving vehicles, and then shooting at them.
From the PERF report, here's an excerpt that addresses moving vehicles:”

This is starting to look more like a huge tragic mistake. It's quite possible (probable?) that the events unfolded as follows:
- The spouse recording the incident hatched the plan to interfere with ICE
- She directed the woman on what to do while she recorded for her social media purposes - maybe an influencer or wanted to become one?
- Probably ahead of the incident, the videographer coached the deceased on how to deal with ICE trying to get at her...maybe assuring the deceased that "they can't hurt you" because you're not an illegal immigrant or something like that
Maybe the deceased was a simply naive and trusted her partner regarding the actions they were taking.
Maybe the couple were paid to do this stuff. Maybe the surviving spouse listened to the Progressive leftists fiery rhetoric to impede ICE any way they can think of and this inspired her or the both of them to get to it.
Social media dulls the logic and reasoning skills of many people. Sadly I think social media combined with the Democrats rhetoric demonizing ICE for doing their jobs resulted in the tragedy - an even that the Democrats are happy to see since it could help draw attention away from the fraud scandals in MN and other states that are being uncovered.
This is not a tragic accident. This is clearly murder.
Filming law enforcement is not illegal. Being against Ice activities of violating the constitution and terrorizing communities isn’t illegal.
Shooting people who are not threatening you is illegal.
This is the direct result of the Trump administration who have weaponized racist goons with little to no training and placed them in communities with the express reason to cause chaos. What happened yesterday falls squarely on republicans and I’m sure no one will face justice
You are a clown masquerading as a normal person.
“Little to no training”?
You really believe that nonsense?
Go look it up, kindly report what training these (mostly) guys go through.
Then kindly report back what you’ve discovered. Should be fascinating.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Y’all figured this out yet?
Suckers
Ice cut their training from 6 months to 6 weeks, and lowered their testing standards, in order to go from 10k to 22k in less than a year.
A Minneapolis patrol officer, in contrast, would go through 16 weeks at the police academy and 6 months field training with a TO.
So yeah, when they have 15% of the training of a patrol cop they have little to no training.
And Minneapolis officers are commanded to not assist the feds, too bad huh.
....and btw, a good bit of the agents are retired / ex police officers

ICE-involved shooting in Minneapolis
Just imagine if there werent blue shithole sanctuary cities and states
Then imagine if 20 million illegals weren't allowed into the country.
Then imagine all of these paid protesters had legitimate jobs / careers.

So do you think the quotes from the DHS and the image from the actual report aren’t accurate because of the website they are posted on? Like it didn’t actually happen and they made it up?
The cult has some stupid beliefs, but that’s a doozy.
