NSFL (CW: Murder): This is the video where the driver was trying to drive away and they shot and killed her trying to escape, she was acting as a legal observer. https://bsky.app/profile/danielsuitor.com/post/3mbtzlfajm227

ICE is already trying to set the narrative that she was trying to run them over, this is false, this video is proof of that. Don’t let them lie.

    See, that’s the funny thing. These “know-it-all” Americans always tell people who live in peripheral areas of the world to “overthrow their leaders,” but if you tell Americans to use their weapons for anything but gunning down shopping malls and schools, they will tell you to shut up because you’re “fedposting.” Pretty damn easy to tell others to commit acts of violence against their governments when living in the US, I want to see you guys do the same. But no, they won’t.

    They have the second amendment to “defend themselves against tyranny,” but when there’s a paramilitary group terrorizing civilians, these people do absolutely nothing.

    • Getting shot by a federal agent or cop means you might live with a 0.1% chance

      Shooting back at a federal agent or a cop means you are 1000000% dead. Even if you live, you live in prison.

      Its not hard to see why nobody actually wants to fight back

      It’s to protect myself against the tyranny of this fantasy I have of some person of color walking into my house uninvited
