I’m seeing evidence of relationships everywhere fracturing over this ICE shooting. And good. Because your relationships should fracture if you’re friends and family with ppl who support hate and state violence.
It should have happened years ago.
It’s monstrous that it’s taken you this long.

Alex Pretti’s last words were “are you ok?” said the woman next to him who ICE also pepper sprayed in the face.

I cannot emphasize enough that I do not give a shit who does and does not have immigration status here in the USA. Just absolutely not a useful descriptor of a person to me.

It has never been more clear that community and solidarity are what keep people safe, and ICE as an institution is an obstacle to public safety.

JUST IN: ICE agents in Minnesota arrested an employee at the St. Louis Park Homewood Suites — where they were staying to help carry out Operation Metro Surge.
A federal judge just ordered the man's release.

I can't put into words the feeling of watching our government, a hive of evil antisocial filth, the absolute worst humanity has to offer, colliding with the best. Ordinary people trying to help each other, risking everything to stand up for what's plainly, unambiguously fair and right. It's unreal

Imagine what’s happening in the camps.
Imagine how much they’d be lying about what happened without all the videos showing it from multiple angles.

Our initial analysis is up.
The video footage appears to show that the gun was taken away from the man before he was shot.
He was UNARMED before any of the shots were fired.

Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...

the angle from the lady in the pink coat is out and it is worse and you don’t need to make yourself watch it but it makes it absolutely stone cold clear that this was a summary execution for no reason

Democrats can and must make it clear there will be trials and anyone even somewhat associated with ICE will face them. Maybe give a quit-your-job deadline on appeasement and give people 72 hours. I don't know. But currently the plan is to let them murder us in the street and get away with it.

I have spent my entire adult life being lectured by Republican politicians and conservative legal movement types about how important it is to preserve the sacred constitutional right to self-defense of *specifically this person* and then secret police murdered him in the street
Minneapolis police chief Brian O'Hara says that the victim was a 37-year-old white man and US citizen with no criminal record and that he was a legally permitted gun owner.

"Just stay cool and don't make trouble until the midterms" is not going to cut it as an opposition response to a murderous regime whose masked thugs are killing people in the streets and then attempting to round up witnesses and destroy evidence.

Genuinely surprised to see this.
It has gotten so bad that the @nytimes.com has stopped using the passive voice to describe the violence.

Watching this in particular. The effort to take witnesses to Whipple, as well as the police refusing to leave the scene, are key.
Per this report ICE has detained several witnesses
ICE attempted to order local police from the scene of the Minneapolis shooting, but the police chief refused and instructed his officers to preserve the crime scene.

the video of another person being murdered by the state on the streets of minneapolis shows exactly what people are saying it shows. make your own choices but don’t feel like you are obligated to bear witness to it. reading a description is enough.

ICE is a paramilitary force deployed in a campaign of state domestic terrorism.
If the primary focus were immigration enforcement, they’d be raiding agricultural and hospitality industry settings.
Instead, they’re going into residential neighborhoods, schools, and courthouses.
Terror is the goal.
