There is ample video to be found of ice shooting a man long past when he's on the ground. There is also photos of them taking away his holstered weapon before that, which they are now trying to use as justification.

50501dc is proud to partner with FUN and our other partner organizations on The People's Pantry. E Pluribus Unum, Out of Many One. It is at times like this that the American Spirit shines through the darkness. We are the people and we shall overcome!
Join us in DC Thursday @ USDA building from 3-5 PM, rally @ 3:30. As the Trump Administration blocks emergency SNAP funds & dismantles public services, federal workers are living their oath to serve — by feeding the families & neighbors that have been abandoned. #savefederalservices #WeTookAnOath
