good for you @pbump.com. i know it wasn’t your intention but this was an act of bravery and profound decency. cable news is relentlessly dehumanizing and soul-corroding; we need as many examples as we can to remind ourselves that we are still human beings.

what you clearly see, CLEARLY, is a driver who is spooked by the agents grabbing her door, takes steps to drive away, and is immediately shot as moves her vehicle *away* from the agents.

Right. The point is not “it matters extra because it’s a citizen,” the point is “we either hang together or we will all hang separately.”
i think it is ok to reiterate that the victim as a us citizen. yes, noncitizens are equally entitled to human rights. but also, it's important to illustrate how ice isn't about immigration at all

If Dems aren't throwing fireballs and making this into the biggest story ever, dump all of them. If any piece of shit in office talks about lowering costs instead of "Trump is taking over countries and ice is killing Americans on the street," they're in on it. And let em know if it's your Rep or Sen
Someone who claims to have witnessed the incident says
- car was blocking ice
- they told them to move
- "something happened'
- ICE shot into the car as it was driving away
- passenger got out of the car covered away and said friend was dead
There is video and I have seen it

On the blog, I argue that Trump is a literal law breaker: He does not merely violate the law; he and his administration seek to render it inoperative, broken. Examples: might-makes-right military actions; J6 pardons; censure of Sen Kelly; and firing members of independent agencies w/o cause. 👇
Trump Doesn't Merely Violate the Law. He Aims to Destroy it.
