    Also horrific is the administration’s characterization of what occurred. She tried to flee agents who were attempting to open her car door and in doing so, was clearly turning away from the agent who ultimately shot her. Not how it’s being portrayed. 

    There will be mass unrest in Minneapolis.

    Indication that the administration may have new targets in its sights? Wonder if there were weapons of (m)ass destruction involved? 🤭

    Texas A&M removes Plato from undergraduate philosophy course because a foundational philosopher from 2,400 years ago (and ironically founder of one of the first institutions of higher learning) touches on race and gender in his teachings.  You really can’t make this up.  Seriously what loony world has this become?

    You just need to have a different perspective, you see?  Maybe if we’d never taught Plato in the first place, there’s no Benghazi cover up and Demoncrats aren’t trafficking children through a network of Papa Murphy’s.

    so if this nice woman was standing on an iced road and the officer lunged forward and hit her with his car, that would be ok :o

    maybe she should have obeyed the law when she was stopped and got out of the car when told too by law enforcement. maybe thats not how its done in canada?

    You’re confused, as usual.  She wasn’t trying to hit anyone with her car.  In fact, the video makes it clear she had turned the wheel away from the ICE agent.

    As to your second point, I didn’t realize that the punishment for not doing everything an ICE agent tells you to do is to be executed on the spot.  Yes, let’s hope that’s not how it’s done in Canada or most of the civilized world.

    What happened to Republicans/MAGA?  Thought they hated government and restrictions on freedoms?  I guess they don’t mind as long as the only people being killed don’t look like them.

    I bet the ICE agent gets a Medal of Honor for his brave service from the King and probably will be the new DHS head of training and public relations.

    You left off the fraud trial starting in Missouri....wait, we don't talk about red states.  The MN fraud is old news to people in the state who know.  The recent "news" was to get Walz to drop out because he'd win again. 

    If only we had a system of checks and balances for the federal level

    It will be an anonymous medal, which he’ll likely accept while wearing a mask.

    Gotta keep the secret police force secret after all.

    Should the police just have mowed down the crowds at J6? They were clearly disobeying police orders.

    Other angles show that he may have been bumped, but was not in the path of the car and opened fire while not in the path of the car.  Police are trained not to stand in front of a running car and at least in Mpls, police don't shoot into moving vehicles like the guy did. When you have untrained people cosplaying cops as ICE this is the stuff that happens that shouldn't.

    For as much as he loves talking about himself, why is it that he never brings up the "assassination attempts?"  He loves talking about himself.  If he really almost died why wouldn't he talk about it all the time?  Why don't we know more about the "assassin"?  For most folk this is blatantly obvious.

    Driving while female or minority is now an executable offense.  Got it.

    “Agent’s” life was never in danger. He executed her because that is the authority he was given and the “training” he has had.

    Don’t get mad at the dog for biting someone get mad at the owner.

    Another photo from Minnesota today.  It is clear we will never agree on appropriate use of force. We are so far down the slippery slope that we don’t even ask:

    1. Why were they trying to detain her? (Hint: they will claim terrorism or something)
    2. Why 3 agents armed like they are capturing a foreign president? (Hint: intimidation and because it’s cool)
    3. Why they are now using Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis instead of the National Guard (hint: judge ruled National Guard couldn’t patrol US streets in a law enforcement capacity).
    4. Could the agent have gotten out of the way (hint: he wasn’t run over, so yes)
    5. Was she trying to hit him, or save herself (hint: she turned the wheel to the right as far as she could could)

    All we ask is can this officer claim he feared for his life? (Hint: he didn’t, but he will claim it, and if you say otherwise you are lying to yourself)

    I would rather light a candle than curse your darkness.
