  • look at the situations of all of these ICE related shootings. Notice anything consistent in their claims that have zero veracity?

    One of the things that stands out is how many more of the shooting are by CBP than by ICE.  Why are more people protesting ICE than they are CBP?

  • what I was (poorly) attempting to point out was how many of the agents claimed that the victim had attempted to ram them with the vehicle while fleeing, but then charges were dropped or never filed against the victim.

    Reading through this, I thought the same thing. It's as though they are simply using that as their go-to excuse.

    Ah, good point.

    I'm till curious as to why we protest ICE more than CBP when it is CBP that has done greater amounts of harm? Maybe it just a linguistic thing- ICE is easier to say? I know this all sounds trivial, but the how many people realize that one organization has been more dangerous than the one most talked about?

    just skimming through the link again, a lot of the CBP shootings looked, dare I say, legit? Like the suspect opened fire first? they also weren't sent en masse from the president under false pretenses because of election grievances.

    good points.  I wonder also if most of the CBP have been better trained and comprise fewer of the loose canon, "Yeah I'll take that 50 grand and do some Rambo target practice on protesters" thugs.

  • I would imagine so. It seems like ICE ballooned out of nowhere and the vetting was near zero.

    Makes sense.
    Another good reason to say, "Fuck ICE."

    they gave the worst people you know six figures and 47 days of training, and this is what happens.

    THIS right here has been my biggest fear. Someone in some way killing a federal agent. Then that fire 🔥 is set  for them to do whatever it is they want. INSTEAD, the very opposite has happened and they don't know what to do. Just blame each other at the moment. 

    Their worst nightmare has come to light. I just hope the people and politicians don't let, NEVER let up.

    Democrats should be imploring from the roof tops that message do not engage with violence that’s exactly what fuckface wants so he can cancel the election! But we can’t trust him at all he might just start a war to cancel elections.

    The first part is true. They want a federal agent hurt or killed so they can go “see see the left is the unhinged group here”. They are fine with anyone dying. 


    They aren’t gonna cancel an election. They can barely pull this off.

    Now, try to depress voter turnout. Absolutely. But the election will happen. The mechanizations of how elections are done are too great for anyone man to stop.

    I wish I shared your opinion but we’ve heard it all before! He/they can’t and low and behold it happens, I’ll believe it once I’m walking out of voting station having cast my vote next November
