Unconfirmed reports of an ICE agent shooting a civilian in South Mpls this morning at Nicollet and East 26th St. Here's a photo of the scene posted on Ice Out.

who could forget the repatriation of our young soldiers to Wooten Bassett!

That is why it is now called Royal Wootton Bassett, since 16th October 2011. Every one of 355 coffins over four-and-a-half years got its recognition from the people who live there, who stood silently in the High Street as the dead were carried past from RAF Lyneham.

(and I still weep. I still weep. Which is absurd, because my DD wasn't even one of them; she came home alive.)

Wrestled to the ground by 7 ICE goons then executed. How are they going to spin this then? I reckon they'll say he was going for their gun or something.

You could not pay me to set foot in American atm. People need to boycott the world cup.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

@AcrossthePond55 I'd imagine both Clinton and Obama are concerned for the safety of their families. I would be.

I searched for "US ICE shooting". Feck, there is LOADS.

Anyway, cutting and pasting from your post:

In the video there is a lady in a pink jacket who is right in there filming everything. Her video needs to be shared.

MAGA scum will say he should not have resisted and he would still be alive. Get on your knees and show your papers 🤮 Most of them will also claim to be Christians.

I have no words.

RIP

They need some more training. The Met only needed 2 to unalive Jean Charles de Menezes.

There is already a narrative being spread that the man allegedly had a gun

No official confirmation yet.

Probably wearing a bulky jacket and backpack and vaulted the car ....

Sadly I think Canada probably would get chewed up in any trade deal with China. Famously they don't have partners in trade deals, only clients

Yup. From Sky News:

"The Department for Homeland Security believes the suspect had a firearm with two magazines and that they are working on gathering more info, Sky News understands. "

Always amazes me. Guns good, guns good, need more guns. lots more guns, oh guns bad here, need more guns, everyone needs a gun, except him.

That is why Carney was looking to build buyers clubs and other more pragmatic flexible options.

People really need to think in terms of live a slave. die a freeman. In a very literal sense. Slavery cannot be far behind where we are now.

Lots of people believe lots of things.

Not all are true.

Seen lots of comments along the lines of he pulled a gun so they had to eliminate the threat. There is one person who will.clear it all up and it's this lady, who filmed the whole thing from a couple of metres away.

Oh for the booooooos that will greet the Donald when he is presented with the FIFA peace prize at the opening ceremony

I see ICE are teargassing again, Such big strong brave men. In their body armour,: PROTESTORS, GAS THEM !

Escalation is all they know. It's a wonder they manage to buy a coffee without kicking off. Are they pumped full of steroids ?

Just turned on MSNow. Reports of 'flash bangs', 'gunshots' which could be tear gas, and the reporter says you can 'feel the irritants in the air' and they are moving away from it. Video shows protesters have made barricades in the street with dumpsters and other items and that some sort of 'spikes' (look like great big sharp 'jacks') are in the street but not saying who/how they were placed.

I have a feeling that this may be the 'crisis' we all thought would come at some point. I'm sure Scrotus is rubbing his hands (or something else tiny) in glee and whispering 'Insurrection Act'.

Minneapolis PD Chief has confirmed that this is a fatality.

Briefing is expected in approximately 40 min.

"One officer mockingly told them “Boo hoo,” as he walked away, while agents elsewhere shoved a yelling protester into a car. "

Sky news.

Oh my GOD! MSNow just showed a graphic video. The man was ON THE GROUND with at least 5-7 ICE-holes on him, one with weapon drawn, when he was shot. There were at least 5 gunshots.

Bullets are expensive. Presumably an allowable expense ?

I hope the agents sue the family for any cleaning bills.
