"We cannot expect people to have respect for law and order until we teach respect to those we have entrusted to enforce those laws" Hunter S. Thompson

This is a critical examination of authority and the belief that the legitimacy of legal systems depends entirely on the integrity of those in power.

ICE is now systematically targeting and attacking Native Americans, apparently because they are not white enough.
Looks like ICE is now cracking down on … Native Americans.

This letter was just posted by the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North/South Dakota:

“Our Nation is a sovereign government and our members are not immigrants. We are not subject to immigration enforcement on our own lands.”

Federally recognized tribes have their own elected governments and a degree of self-governance, allowing them to create their own laws and manage their lands. This includes jurisdiction over certain legal matters and the ability to ban individuals from their territory.

Historically, treaties were created to keep white settlers out of Native American lands, though these were frequently violated. In the present day, there are no fences keeping non-Natives out, but tribal lands are considered sovereign territory. The majority of reservation land is tribal trust land.

I think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.

If the officer has to COME TO YOU to threaten you, then THEY ARE NOT BEING HINDERED from doing their job. You are not interfering, impeding or assaulting them if they come to you AWAY FROM THEIR vehicle.
They don't like being followed and they get pissed because they have "anger management" issues.

Trump told NYT that his power as commander in chief is constrained only by his "own morality" — brushing aside international law and other legitimate checks on his abilities.

"My own morality. My own mind. It's the only thing that can stop me."

"I don't need international law."

Critics and analysts must characterize these statements by Trump as an "evocative encapsulation" of a "brutish" mindset that rejects the authority of Congress, the Constitution, and the United Nations. Not what the Founding Fathers and the post-war international consensus prior to Trump had in mind.

Once again an attempt to manipulate public emotions for self-elevation, seeking this as a path to despotism. Mechanisms now in place. Factions, demagogues, and threats to public liberty. A betrayal of everything that America stands for.

If you beat up and injure a cop at the Capitol the Trump admin will pardon you.

If you drive away from an ICE agent they will kill you.

If you’re scared of a Honda Pilot driving less than 5 miles an hour, with its wheels pointing away from you, you should not be working in law-enforcement…

You shouldn’t have a gun. You shouldn’t have a badge. You should find a new line of work.

No, JD Vance. I have seen the footage a few times to observe the situation closely. This would most definitely seem to be a case of an actionable criminal homicide by an ICE officer.

JD Vance supports murdering American citizens. He's made that perfectly clear today. If he's willing to defend the murder of Renee Good, he would defend your murder, too.
