It is clear to anyone with a brain that someone in an inflatable frog costume cannot pose the requisite threat required for an official to deploy a chemical agent into the costume's air intake fan. This is excessive force and fascism.

So painful understanding law at all this era. The business of and the power and reasons of law at all never farther apart nor shall the two much touch at all.

A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Everett after an interaction with members of the Everett Police Department and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia, according to his mother and immigration lawyer Andrew Lattarulo.

The boy’s mother, Josiele Berto, was called to pick her son up from the Everett Police Department on Thursday, the day he was arrested. After waiting for about an hour and a half, she was told her son was taken by ICE, Berto told the Globe in a phone interview.

“My world collapsed,” Berto said in Portuguese.

From the police department, the boy was taken to ICE’s holding facility in Burlington on Thursday evening, where he spent a night before being transferred by car to the Northwestern Regional Juvenile Detention Center in Winchester, Va., on Friday morning, his mother said. The juvenile facility is more than 500 miles away from Everett.

The boy is a 7th-grader at Albert N. Parlin School in Everett, his mother said. The teen and his family, who are Brazilian nationals, have a pending asylum case and are authorized to work legally in the United States, Lattarulo said.

AI doesn’t need Terminators or nuclear bombs to destroy us. It only needs to degrade our ability to discern reality to the point where critical decisions are made on false information. So … congrats AI edgelords. Just what you wanted.

Also, Epstein files are key to that controlling by other means. Are not just a record of pedophilia and sexual abuse by most powerful but record of a business model through which control of our electeds is maintained—by persons both foreign and domestic.
