She should not have used her vehicle as a weapon against law enforcement. Simple as following the law. Break the law and there are consequences.

Well she didn't, did she? Spreading that disinformation isn't going to wash. We all have eyes.

She did not use her vehicle as a weapon nor did she do anything illegal.

It's very simple to verify your facts simon.

Find the erasure of her truth by writing her off as a domestic terrorist and prejudicing any case against the ICE agent by DT as utterly chilling as the murder itself.

CharlotteRumpling · 08/01/2026 16:05

Apparently she was a mum of 3. 😥

It's so sad. The children are 15, 12 and 6 if my understanding is correct. The older two still have their dad, but the younger one's father apparently died in 2023.

Utterly heartbreaking for her family.

We can’t. We decided to spend all our money on welfare and the NHS, and as such we have not invested in our military, infrastructure, business or the other essentials needed to function independently without relying on the States.

The resulting embarrassing dependency and sycophancy is a problem entirely of our own making.

Some of us did say 🤷‍♀️

We have world class universities, we have the London Stock Exchange. Our military is significant for our size and our intelligence is strong. We like being special friends with the US because it makes us feel big, but we can absolutely survive without them.

Universities mean naff all and our economy has been stagnating for years now. Britain is finished - we spent far too long ploughing money into bottomless pits which produce no notable return benefits, and the public have adjusted to that.

Not a nice outcome in any way, but wasn't she an antifa bod, helping to stir up trouble for the peacekeepers ? An 'urban terrorist' according to many respected authorities ?

Alexandra2001 · 08/01/2026 16:16

Going to be tricky to actually take it up to 3 or 4% of GDP, it'll mean a further tax rise.

We also need to start getting the yanks out of our bases, there is no point trying to appease them, they wouldn't come to our aid, so there is no reason to have them here.

Trump has made his feelings on NATO and Europe in general very clear, his sympathies lay with Putin.

No.

Bruisername · 08/01/2026 16:16

I struggle with the idea that breaking the law or being antifa means it’s ok for you to be killed.

I'm glad that in this country any killing by police is investigated and the police understand the weight on their shoulders. It should never be seen as ‘just one of those things’

aphroditeflighty · 08/01/2026 16:17

Trump's doubled down on his defence of the ICE shooting, but then why would he do otherwise.

Nope, which "respected" authorities has said this?

Just cnuts trying to justify her killing.

Judging by your other posts, another right winger who supports her murder.

To the posters who responded to me on the previous thread, I agree - I do not believe the car struck the officer. He was trigger happy and murdered a woman.

At what point are they justified then?

What level of thinking does it take to drive an SUV in the direction of an armed officer, after you've been told to get out of your vehicle?

Also, people.seem to be judging the actions of the agent on the laws here in the UK. Things are very different in the US. You absolute 💯 cannot do anything that endangers an officer in any way. You might disagree with the law, but that's how it is. And driving a two ton SUV in their general direction, with contempt, is a terrible idea.

What would you advise your child to do if they were in a similar situation?

Comply with the officers directions, or drive towards them?

This was a tragedy. But ICE aren't known for their tolerant demeanour.

I think it telling people defending this are lying about footage we can all see and trying to smear the victim.

Unfortunately in the poltically divided states with it's partisan media coverage it will probably work or get ignored by most of the population like all the previous concerning stuff.

More like because the already massively overpopulated UK couldn’t cope with another influx of tens of millions of people?!

Honestly the lack of common sense around immigration and this strange utopian view that our country will magically expand as people arrive is very worrying

Fucksake a) the UK is way down the list of countries that take in immigrants and b) if you want to stop immigration then improve living conditions in poorer countries and get a grip on climate change.

People felt similarly about Charlie Kirk - they ‘didn’t believe in violence’ etc but were absolutely radiant when he was shot. Or they ‘don’t justify it, but can see why…’ etc

Fuck off. Even if true that does not make extrajudicial killings ok

There is not a single thing right with him. Nothing.
