    He pulled the oldest trick in the book where you purposely escalate and put yourself in danger to justify lethal force. They could have all just kept their distance and nobody would have died.

      He’ll do it regardless. Half of what he’s done was already illegal. More of what he’ll do will be illegal. He doesn’t care as long as nobody stops him.

    The mayor’s response was perfect. “ICE, get the fuck out of Minneapolis.”

    That should be the response everywhere. Get the fuck out, you’re not welcome here.

      I don’t understand how this is considered a good response. They’re just words, the terrorists are still there, and will murder again.

      The correct response by the local or state governments would be to arrest them, and put them on trial, together with the federal government for having sent them (and the state government for allowing it in the case of the city).

      Anything short of that is collaboration.

    Yeah that ICE agent could easily step out of the way. Clear case of just wanted to murder her for trying to flee her own danger

    He wasn’t in any danger. Cold-blooded murder. Anyone without a “badge” would be charged and sent to prison.

    They will be sued, and lose. We (taxpayers who already pay taxes on toilet paper, et al) will be gracious enough to pay for the lawsuit ourselves, of course. No need for them or their pension to pay!

    Also, they need a raise and more tanks, lots of tanks.

    I’m sure the cop will get away with it as the car was going in his direction. But he has SO much time to get out of the way. His first instinct is as to murder her.

      The video shows he murdered her after stepping to the side and out of danger.

      In fact, he put many more people’s lives in danger by shooting.
