To wonder if past trauma was a factor in the Renee Nicole Good murder and that, while not absolving agent, it shows ICE should select agents more carefully?

[Carla786]

Reading this from the BBC, I wonder if the agent was suffering from previous trauma. They had earlier been in the Iraq War and then had huge number of stitches after being dragged by a car while arresting apparently a 'child sex offender' illicit migrant last March.

Thus I wonder if, because Renee Good clipped them with the car earlier(as The Times indicates), shooting at her car as she drove past was less a rational decision borne from evil and more an instinctive reaction from recent trauma with cars on the job?

This is NOT an excuse. But I wonder if it also shows that ICE are selecting traumatised agents who are too dangerous, due to this, to be in that position?

At least you are not trying to defend ICE this time, or are you?

If you think this is worth supporting

-"forcibly entered homes without a judge’s warrant"
-"interrogated people because of their ethnicity or accents"
-"broke windows and dragged occupants from their cars"
-"used force on people who were already restrained"

Of course they are following any targets because the world has seen the abuse

Given they are supporting ICE tactics, I think we can make an assumption here…

It doesn't prove what you wanted it to prove though, does it?

Nosebleeds that don’t stop after 20-30 minutes can be dangerous. I assume these parents must’ve been quite worried to seek medical treatment. Especially in the current climate.

Thank god, we do have people documenting these events. I hope one day they can be used to prosecute ICE agents. Though I suspect with the damage that Trump‘s doing it will be a very long time.

Those with work permits also pay tax. You forgot that bit.

Unconfirmed at the moment

There is video circulating on social media of a group of ICE agents beating a man near 26th and Nicollet in south Minneapolis, then one of the ICE agents shoots the man while he's on the ground numerous times. A witness can be heard yelling that the victim is dead.

Why is it that any comment that supports any human rights, shows compassion to other humans or says ice should follow the law is automatically branded as leftist? Dont right wing followers believe in the law, compassion or human rights?

Nazi? Agitator?

Trump has designs on Venezuela, Canada, Greenland and quite possibly Iceland (which he has mentioned too often for it to be a slip of the tongue): The place where I live was occupied by Nazi Germany during WW11. There are reminders everywhere, concrete bunkers, towers etc and my family endured the occupation, so excuse me for seeing parallels with the 1930s.

America needs to wake up and see what the rest of the world sees when it looks at Trump and his henchmen.

I dont let people push me I stand up to them why are you confused by what was said?

It’s a tactic, they use specific phrases like ‘crazed leftists.’

It’s usually busted out when we’re talking about shooting women and detaining children.

I take it as a compliment these days, it means you’re saying something factual they want to refute.

The two people here don’t need to wake up. They know and are fully in support.

They’ve asked us to stop using the term, Nazi, and I think they’re right. We’ve been using it to warn of where this regime could end up and to illustrate the dangers in the parallels of how ICE behave. But we’re already there, ICE have shown us they’re willing to kill people, to abduct families and children, to attack with chemicals. Who needs the term Nazi when now you can just say ICE.

I've Just seen it.

I have no words

RiP

Me too

Horrendous

Haven't you already said this? I know there's a lot of repetition but this seems word for word.

Anyway. They aren't nazis we've been through this. They are armed law enforcement officers. Not the same thing.

In the US there are no "left wing" parties of significance. There's a centre-right party and a far-right one. The Greens aren't a major player. Otherwise you just have decent individuals like Bernie Sanders who would be considered "centrists" in many European countries.

There is no limit to what they feel entitled to do.

Jon Favreau on Instagram has just posted about what they’re doing and where we are now. It’s fucking terrifying.

So were the SS.

And the Gestapo

Oh the SS were law enforcement officers, who knew. I thought they were mass murderers.

They were enforcing the law. The fact that the law was one that would never exist in a civilised country is neither here nor there, apparently.

Enforcing the law by mass murders? No it is not the same thing.
