Ice agent shoots a woman in the face part 3

Donald Trump has now said its okay to murder a woman. Because they are doing it for people's 'safety'

It is interesting how far humans will let themselves be abused by bad people.

I was watching a documentary about jonestown the cult.

Some people left the cult

They said that the leader beat people, raped people, starved people. He made them do physical labour for many hours a day. He demanded that they give him all of their money.

And yet still hundreds of people followed him.

People seem to keep supporting a person and staying there. Rather than saying "maybe i was wrong and this guy is actually a bad person"

Video clearly shows she drove into him whilst he was investigating the car

Yes, she clipped him because he went and planted himself in the way as she was attempting a three point turn.

He had ample opportunity to stand somewhere else but he chose to stand at the front-side of her car while she was coming forward from a reverse to turn.

Her wife was shouting "drive baby drive" as an instruction to drive away (which is not a shootable offence.)

We have been over this. Nothing indicates she was intentionally trying to hurt him, and it was his responsibility to put himself somewhere safe and not in front of a moving vehicle.

"Yes, she clipped him because he went and planted himself in the way as she was attempting a three point turn."
Well in the UK, careful observation during manoeuvres is expected so you can't just blame the pedestrians for being in the way if you "clip them".

I mean she spoke to him directly so knew he was there - she just didn't care enough to avoid him. Madness.

MN is full of repeated discussions/issues

There's a bit of a knowledge gap here. Probably most of the posters who are so critical of ICE don't know much about the likes of MS-13 and Tren de Aragua and their activities which have caused the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans, especially poor Americans.

Yes, the agent in this case was in the wrong, in my opinion, but ICE are doing important and necessary work.

I'm not saying she was acting in accordance with the law, I'm saying that there was no reason for him to be stood in that precise position, especially given that she was clearly distracted by the other officer moving quickly towards her from another angle, that he easily could have taken a step back and cleared the car, and that he had no reason to shoot her other than he wanted to.

And he changed position several times after she spoke to him. I actually think the second video is even stronger proof that she probably hadn't taken him into consideration. He circles the car, she's looking at the other officer and trying to get away from him, and then the shooter comes round to the front of the car while she's clearly turning the wheel sharply to the right.

No, no it doesn't. Fuck me, we lose one poster repeating this bollocks and gain another.
Sigh.
Are you on shifts or just arrogant enough to not bother to read the multitude of posts discussing the same thing earlier?

NotTerfNorCis · 10/01/2026 21:50

The left focus their argument on emotion and the right focuses its argument on facts

Of course, Donald Trump is well known for his coolly rational approach.

He walked around, swapped his phone from his dominant hand to his non dominant hand so that he could draw his gun, then shot her THROUGH THE SIDE WINDOW. Three fucking times.
In case you didn’t see his own damn recording, he then called her a ‘fucking bitch’ (having just assassinated her), and then strolled off. Clearly NOT injured.
A poor little man that couldn’t handle his big emotions and had to shoot a woman to death to feel better about himself.

As I’ve said before, a scumbag.

Did you check who he is before posting? The murder of Charlie Kirk was abhorrent, and I feel for his children witnessing that. Hopefully they are getting the support they will need but none of that excuses Kirk's views.

Do you really believe one of his supporters would be impartial about the Trump-backed shooting of a lesbian woman?

RufustheFactuaIReindeer · 10/01/2026 21:23

Yes

so ‘she brought it on herself’…

the ‘if not’ bit means that no one has said ‘she deserves it’…just that ‘she bought it on herself’

No that's not the case. Firstly despite several posters saying that the correct decision would have been to get out of the vehicle, this does not mean that she deserved to be shot for failing to get out of the vehicle. Just that given that she was surrounded by armed officers then it was the wrong decision to drive off.

Secondly if the poster is in agreement with me and genuinely meaning that no one has said "she deserved it" then instead of "if not deserved it " she would have written "but no one said she deserved it "

What has Kirk’s views got to do with Renee?

And Kirk fought for women’s rights with one basic question.
what is a woman?

If he shot her three times through the side window, why is there a bullet hole in the front windscreen?

Walkden · 10/01/2026 22:08

" then shot her THROUGH THE SIDE WINDOW. Three fucking times.

The first bullet hole was through the corner of the front windscreen consistent with being clipped by the wing of the car. The next two look to have been through the side screen.

He did call ger a fucking bitch probably because she hit him with her car.

People can do more then walk off when hurt or injured. I once watched an international rugby game where a Welsh player played on for 10 minutes after a clash of heads then had to go off after brain fluid started dripping from. His ear as he had cracked his skull.
Supposedly he went to hospital afterwards although it is not clear he sustained any injuries apart from bruising perhaps.

Having watched the same video Some people choose to believe he called her a bitch because she had defied him. Others believe he was triggered by being hit by a car based on a previous incident.

It's up to the us justice system what happens to him now ..

Vance has, however, the AG of Minnesota has given an interview refuting his right to do this, and said Trump's administration cannot block the state from investigating or bringing charges against the shooter.

However, the FBI is refusing to share evidence with them and has blocked access to crime scenes and forensic evidence. They are asking members of the public who witnessed the event or have video footage to come forward and assist in their own investigation, and he has been clear that if their investigation shows Ross acted outside of the law, they will charge him.

To the posters who are saying he called her a fucking bitch because her car hit him…

I have worked in rehab, prisons, social services, and shelters. I have been pushed, threatened, stalked, followed, abused and other lovely things, like having my children ‘mentioned’ in conversations with clients. I HAVE NEVER called one of them a fucking bitch. I would be fired if I had.

That would be bad enough. But to call her it after having shot her three times.

Do people genuinely think it’s normal for public servants to call members of the public fucking bitches doing the course of their work day? It speaks to a level of misogyny and a lack of professionalism that is otherwise amply evident from him shooting an unarmed woman.

Seriously? Careful observation during manoeuvres is one thing, trying to get yourself out of a scary situation faced with an ICE guy waving a gun at you is a whole different thing. She probably didn't have her seat belt on properly either.

Sworn but not sworn at, correct?

Walkden · 10/01/2026 23:01

I've been sworn at / Insulted / threatened / struck many times - occupational hazard.

Only sworn once. Never at anyone.

But then again I've never felt my life was in danger either.

5MinuteArgument · 10/01/2026 23:02

Not excusing what happened, but ICE deal with the most dangerous gangs on the planet. They are going to be in a state of high alert so should be left to get on with their important work.

Did your work involve dealing with gangs like MS-13?
