A federal immigration officer has shot and killed a man in Minneapolis, drawing hundreds of protesters onto the frigidly cold streets in a city already shaken by another fatal shooting weeks earlier.

    If ICE thugs won’t get punished for the 2nd time, I’d expect a 3rd one

      Im guessing that this is going to escalate until either martial law or ICE leave MN.

        Yeah, ICE ain’t leaving. TACO has no force compelling him to do so.

        I’d bet a fiver on a 3rd killing in the next couple weeks. As soon as the first person fights back it’ll be martial law.

        I really home the general strikes take off, but the movement needs leadership and direction. Fuck.

      What the Fuck is wrong with you (direct at everyone in the US). Welcome to your “freedom” when one of your own citizens is executed by a federal organization in the god damn street. Disgusting and pathetic.

      Edit: Apparently doing a censor was a bigger topic of discussion that the actual event, fixed that.

    Trump shared images of the gun that immigration officials said was recovered and said: “What is that all about? Where are the local Police? Why weren’t they allowed to protect ICE Officers?”

    Note that these are the same Republicans who have lectured us for decades about people’s right to carry guns legally.

    Also, the image they circulated seems to have been on the internet for a while. It’s not this man’s gun:

    EDIT: I have been unable to confirm this last claim, or that the image search results below are real. The source of the search results image is this Threads post.

        It is if you are a conservative, an unactive independent voter or a low information liberal voter. Those groups have a huge crossover of the media ecosystems they use with a lot of it being legacy TV media and FB.

      Its been fascist for over 300 years. Where do you think Hitler got all of his ideas from? Have you read Mein Kampf? The USA has always been fascists, why do you think operation paperclip happened?

      The victim’s name is Alex Pretti

      Alex Pretti was a nurse and researcher who worked for the VA. He was executed for attempting to block Nazi Gestapo from assaulting/kidnapping a woman. 8 Nazis wrestled him to the ground and then shot him 11 times. The first shot appeared to go into his back.

        No one should die because of ice, but there’s an extra level of hurt when it’s a person whose life is about helping others.
