Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.

For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

So ICE have murdered one person, shot another, thrown a flash bang and tear gas into a car full of children who then had to be hospitalized, attacked high schools where they beat staff and gassed students, gassed protestors, gone door to door breaking into houses and dragging out the occupants to be disappeared, pointed guns directly at citizens' heads... and that's just what one Canadian has seen from Minneapolis in the last few days. I have friends in Minneapolis and it pains me to see that great city being terrorized daily by this fascist government.
Don't forget about the person they permanently blinded the other day
He was like only 21 y.o. too.
They murdered way more than that, no one gave a shit about the murders until it happened to a white lady. And really they been murdering for years. They just do the standard shithead “I’m technically within the letter of the rules so you can’t tell on me” shit where they game the system (that they set up).
Case in point: the tactic used by the guy who shot the white lady was not one of the recent hires. He’d been with ice for years and before that with border patrol. So why is he stepping in front of cars, especially when apparently he had an incident stepping behind a car somewhat recently that almost caused him grave injury? Oh and also it’s against DHS policy for agents to stand in front of, behind, or reach into vehicles:
People make mistakes but surely someone went over policy while debriefing the incident where he got dragged by a car or whatever. So why’d he do it again? Oh probably because border patrol does it regularly because if they purposely put themselves in danger it gives them an excuse to use lethal force with plausible deniability and basically never gets looked into because the overwhelming majority of the US populace couldn’t give a single shit about brown people being murdered:
Also note that in this internal review cbp points out what many have pointed out in the aftermath of this: a bullet won’t stop a car, shooting at a car runs a tremendous risk of hitting other people as it’s likely to be in a populated area, and even if you’re successful in incapacitating or killing the driver you’ve basically just created a several thousand pound missile that’s still barreling towards you (and others) with no feasible way to stop safely (which is exactly what happened here. Also note this review finds 15 cases of discharge, several of which resulted in occupants being struck.
This shit has been going on for ages and the apathy towards it in the past is part of what created the conditions for it. It’s escalating, for sure, but it’s not new at all
Lots of people cared, the media just barely touched it so most people didn't know. I do appreciate you spreading the information because more people do need to learn about it.
Abolish DHS/ICE immediately and lock up anyone even remotely related. And probably hang Kristy Gnome.
Every single one of these motherfuckers deserve a violent death.
