Shot from behind by federal agents, seems the key missing element of that title.
If you treat people as a group, they tend to lock together as a group. The police are already getting pissed off with ICE, in many places. That crack needs to be pryed open. Indifferent, pissed off police/FBI etc is a lot better than them standing in lockstep with ICE.
Yah we can do more good leveraging the fact that most of these ICE agents are illegitimate and just poorly trained ticks riding on Trump's political narratives and not real federal agents.
We can make the cops hate them and support the narrative that these ICE goons are trying to usurp local authority.
Then when the tide turns and ICE is pushed back into the sea or wherever the fuck they came from, we can go back to hating on the cops. We gotta take the stairs one step at a time.
It's worth noting, that the police issue in America is very solvable. Most of the Western world's police use a "police by consent" default. America's "police by overwhelming force" is the outlier. It leads to a lot of your issues over there. While they are far from perfect, the UK police are far better than America police.
It's worth looking for the opportunity to reform the police in the process, not just hate on them (ineffectively).

This is really some russia level shit.
Even in Russia, people are not being shot on the streets: detained, beaten up, etc - yes (I'm not saying this is good of course), but not shot. The US quickly took the lead in some of the dystopian stuff.
russia, putin banned gun ownership, he doesnt want a violent uprising of his own. its only matter of time before trump does it. also most of trumps administration are hiding like rats on military bases.
It's not Putin who banned something, guns were historically harder to own in Russia, and USSR before.
And gun ownership doesn't really help in the US right now. People sit with their guns being quiet.
Most civilized countries ban or severely limit gun ownership.
As does Russia.
The US has always been the outlier in that regard.

Jimenez pulled up to three immigration officers, two from Border Patrol and another form ICE and “engaged in a verbal altercation,” it states.
It doesn’t even get any better if you just accept their version of what happened. Six agents vs one guy in a “verbal altercation”, and they think it’s ok to just start blasting?
At this point, ICE is just a group of people who harass Latinos based on racist criteria. It doesn't even have to do with immigration.
As a white person, I think of the German people who did nothing when Jewish people were gradually stripped of rights, before the eventual death camps, and I'm not actually sure of what to do. I also am not really convinced that there are no Latinos being sent to death camps right now. If there were, would I know somehow?
My political views are somewhat moderate. I just don't like racism.
Is there anything I can do that will have any meaningful impact on protecting Latinos from this racism? I do not consider protests to be meaningful and I am not asking for any suggestions that are illegal, especially since the government probably trolls these posts. I feel like I'm being a bad person by doing nothing.
Supposedly that’s already happening. Many of the people that were sent to alligator Alcatraz were never seen again. They weren’t traceable. And yet neighboring countries are reportedly finding bodies washing up on their shores. The running theory is that the US has been flying them out into the ocean, dropping them in there to drown to disappear them. It’s horribly evil, and yet it’s plausible.
We’re almost to the end of the end of the poem. I fully expect to hear “and then they came for me“ any day now

There are two very obvious peices that show the government side is lieing... 1 - a spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security, said ... 2 - Then the agent “holstered” his fire arm
The main requirement to be a spokesperson for anything in this administration is to lie. And ICE has orders to escalate, not descalate.
This comment section is full of fedposting.
Fr, people need to stop treating the internet as equivalent to IRL discussions. Like literally every comment is "shoot your local cop", I mean like, I'm not saying that I disagree with the sentiment, but like... seriously lol? How is suicide by cop gonna change anything?
Just as with computers, your brain also needs a "firewall".
Real talk. People like to pretend they are the boogie man the right is trying to create. But outside of the superhero frog, most of us are just regular people.

What is fedposting?
People trying to get you to do or say something which could earn you a visit from the police. Open calls for violence or to break the law in some specific manner. E.g. "shoot your local ICE agent".
I'm not going to say that violence is never justified, but anyone loudly advocating it in leftist spaces online should be viewed with a very suspect eye. The online is very real and your posts here very much can be connected to your identity.

ICE executes a US citizen with a shot in the back of the head in front of children.
Here, I fixed the headline for you.
Per the article:
unnecessarily shot in the back of his right shoulder where a bullet remains lodged
He is still alive
ICE attempts to murder a US citizen with a shot in the back of the head in front of children.
Nailed it?

He's alive
Totally, this headline is not nearly sensationalist and misleading enough for my taste.

I liked the part where the victem is named but none of the ICE agents are identified. "Officer N.J." is all they say.
