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

Edited

Yes agree - also the healthcare ceo

i just can’t understand how anyone can justify killing someone in any of those circumstances

if we no longer value life then what does that make us

What's wrong with Trump?

He's a deranged, narcissistic, and racist psychopath.

EmeraldShamrock000 · 08/01/2026 16:25

Shocking. I would be terrified if my family and I lived in America with trigger happy law enforcers.
Incidents are clearly covered up whenever it is possible and lies are told to justify it when caught on camera.

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 ?

Hi. Could you please link to the evidence from these repected authorities? Thank you.

The difference between criminals and ICE is ICE can kidnap and shoot people in the street with impunity. They act outside the law and have no legal consequences.

The criminal faces criminal and possibly civil penalties.

The US is no longer a nation ruled by law.

What's the death count so far Illegals or Ice?

Has anyone remember Jean Charles de Menezes yet ?

The UK is just as good as the US in murdering innocent civilians.

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, we need cuts, specifically to the welfare state. We spend more on PIP than we do the military. It’s absolute madness.

All very well wanting to have influence and ‘stand alone against tyrants’, but you can’t then skimp on the protections required to do this because you want to throw the money at bottomless pits and ‘the vulnerable’

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

The rule of law has to be upheld, however unpalatable.

The flashing lights and siren of the vehicle the officers got out of before approaching her vehicle might have been a bit of a give away.

People have stolen police cars and imitated cops before

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.

What level of thinking does it take to drive an SUV in the direction of an armed officer,

That. Isn't. What. Happened. Watch the video analysis posted upthread.

DuncinToffee · 08/01/2026 16:29

Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her.

Here's the Washington Post investigation:

Have you seen or read The Hate U Give? You can comply all you like and someone still might get shot and killed.

So you think the ICE officer should have a free and fair trial then? That would be most welcome.

Im not sure the need to focus so much in which part of the body was shot but I don’t think she drove at the officers either. I just don’t understand why she was driving away full stop or why people are dismissing that. Obviously the fact she tried to drive away before they opened fire led to the tragic outcome. If armed officers tell you to get out of your vehicle and you carry on driving, you get shot. It has happened in the UK too. Unfortunately what you do next in the moments anfter armed officers tell you to get out of your vehicle matters. Trying to drive away matters.

She drove away because she was ordered to move out of the way.

earlier in the clip you can see her wave the ice vehicles past, then one stopped and tried to open her door.

they were yelling different commands. Some telling her to move, some to stop. She likely thought moving away from the conflict was the best option, even if the Adrenalin and panic allowed her to think.

this sums it up for me: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNRrx2Hyq/

brilliant poem about the murder of a poet.

Other legal accounts are saying similar

The wheels of her car were on full lock, turning AWAY from the shooter.

Apologies if this has already been posted - but here is a very thorough video analysis analysis by the New York Times. https://www.nytimes.com/video/us/100000010631041/minneapolis-ice-shooting-video.html?smid=url-share

I posted the transcript of this on the last thread because I couldn't bear to see the video again.

The fact that this exists and that people are either choosing not to watch it (or read the transcript) or, are watching it and still arguing that it was a justified shooting/she deserved it, or whatever, just completely boggles my mind. It proves the lengths people will go to in order hold onto their pre-conceived notions.

I posted it on the previous thread but think it needs to be posted and reposted as many times as possible to counteract the straight up lies being told by Trump.

There is a twitter one also that shows the ICE lot clapping each other on their backs just after the shooting. I've only got to this post so far but hope someone also posts that because it's unspeakable.

It's descriptive. That's what happened and it makes it clear that the intent was to kill. The shooter went for the head shot.

Why do you lot always have to choose horrible things like this? I know, I know, it gets reactions and it's easier and you don't care because you're well cool and edgy, but in days of internet yore, there were talented people who could get the wind up on things that didn't matter, and that was respected more because it showed far more skill, intelligence and refinement. Any idiot can upset people using a horrible shooting like this, it's easy, but the real talents could get everyone wound up about a packet of crisps or gardening tools. That was so superior, and you could keep your humanity too in case you ever outgrew the edgy crap and needed it.

Is killed her at point-blank range unemotive enough for you?

Playingvideogames · 08/01/2026 16:36

I also think we need to decide our stance on intervention.

On one hand the left wing routinely scream about us leaving other countries alone, minding our own business, not feeling entitled to meddle in international or overseas affairs.

On the other hand they’re insistent we do interfere when it’s against Trump or similar, and call us weak for not doing enough.

So - which is it?
