Ahh, ABC quoting and legitimizing the "she was attacking us" narrative..

[–] jontree255@lemmy.world 94 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

In the video he’s in front of the car for maybe half a second before she starts to accelerate and continues to fire when he’s clear of the vehicle.

[–] Makeitstop@lemmy.world 77 points 3 weeks ago

She was clearly performing a Y turn to steer around him. You can see him pull his gun out as she's switching from reverse to drive, and he fires the first shot while she's barely moving. She continues to accelerate after getting shot and yet he doesn't get hit, but he does continue firing.

Her intent was obviously to escape, not to inflict harm. His intent was obviously to inflict harm, not to escape.

A lawless shithole full of oppressed people who don't know freedom.

What the media has to learn: just because they say it, doesn't mean it gets to be reprinted or quoted.

[–] Sunforged@lemmy.ml 27 points 3 weeks ago

You still under the impression the media's purpose is to serve the public? In 2026?

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 104 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

If ICE comes up to you, treat it as a life or death scenario and respond accordingly. You can get shot, sent to a torture camp, or deported to a country you've never been in.

Edit: and don't assume you're safe because you're a citizen and/or white, as evidenced here

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 29 points 3 weeks ago

yep. you literally pretty much have to.

this woman was trying to leave and they tried to take her out of her car without reason and then shot her in the face because they felt like it.

[–] Atelopus-zeteki@fedia.io 78 points 3 weeks ago

12:49pm "Frey said he’d seen video of the confrontation and said ICE was “already trying to spin this as an act of self-defense. That is bullshit. This was an agent recklessly using power … that resulted in someone dying, getting killed.”

[–] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 69 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Warning: violence

  • you cannot see any blood, or the driver
  • you can hear the gunshots, and in the second video, can see the ICE agent firing his sidearm into the car
  • ICE’s description of the incident is very clearly an outright, bald-faced lie

Video 1: https://www.threads.com/@amay.a100/post/DTOBTk_DbL4

Video 2: https://www.threads.com/@megtheminipony/post/DTOGTlYiXlu

Fwiw I don’t use Threads at all personally, but that’s where the content lives

If this (and other similar incidents) aren’t examples of a modern Kent State moment, I don’t know what the fuck is.

[–] TipRing@lemmy.world 56 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (2 children)

The vehicle doesn't accelerate until she's already been killed. The vehicle was uncontrolled because ICE murdered its operator and they are trying to spin it like this dead woman was trying to run them down.

Fuck these monsters. The state needs to prosecute every federal agent at the scene for murder and public endangerment.

Edit: I just saw the victims wife was in the car with her. Now I'm angry and crying.

[–] FisherOfSaints@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

You can always rely on this regime to be as ghoulish as possible in their approach to any given situation and this situation is no exception.

Imagine a human being still connected to any ethical framework trying to spin the post-mortem acceleration of the innocent women they murdered as an attack on them.

You can’t do it. You have to surrender your humanity to be capable of this level of callous evil.

No, we can expect that from the conservatives harassing her widow over the next few days though.

[–] Typhoon@lemmy.ca 26 points 3 weeks ago

Not an assassin. He's a thug who murdered a woman in cold blood.

[–] Makhno@lemmy.world 14 points 3 weeks ago

Someone needs to off his ass

[–] drmoose@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago

It's always the ones you most suspect huh

[–] BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago

Murderer! You will not escape justice. No more.

[–] ChunkMcHorkle@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

May this murder be a curse to him who murdered. May his murder come back to him every time he closes his eyes. May he see himself extinguish an innocent life until that is all he ever sees, day in and day out. May he see a vision of the blood he shed everywhere he looks. May his murder rob him of everything he think he has. May his murder suck the ability to feel joy from his life. May his murder eat away at his existence until he feels that he himself has become the walking dead. May his murderous life become a barren moonscape of dull, meaningless motion from this place to that until it all looks, sounds, and feels the same. May his misery be matched only by his inner deadness. May death itself elude him in his cowardice. And may he then understand that this is what he made of himself when he chose to murder an innocent woman on the streets of Minneapolis.

[–] mrmaplebar@fedia.io 56 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

They should all be arrested and tried for murder. They are all accomplices and co-conspirators in a serious crime, and should have the fucking book thrown at them.

Otherwise I see no reason why the US citizens shouldn't take matters into their own hands.

I see you also watched that John Oliver episode.

[–] AbidanYre@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I like John Oliver and all, but some of us are aware of things without learning about them from his show.

[–] MyOpinion@lemmy.myserv.one 43 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

ICE is just gross. I look forward to sending many to jail and defunding them.

[–] IronBird@lemmy.world 20 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

i wish i had your optimism

[–] VieuxQueb@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Dont forget corrupt fascist always end up hurting themselves in the end, a corrupt system always leads to bad output.

[–] ScoffingLizard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 3 weeks ago

Tell that to Kim Jongun. Also, since Palantir exists and Americans are so spread out, how the fuck are we supposed to do anything? I'm scared y'all. This sucks.

[–] deacon@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

They can kill a lot of people and ruin a lot of lives before that stage though.

Sorry for being cynical, but it really was only a question of time until that happened. These goons have been completely out of control for a long time now.

I hope more people are waking up now. I hope they are enough.

edit: and hey, deported people also have died already. This is inhuman and tyrannical.

[–] gAlienLifeform@lemmy.world 25 points 3 weeks ago

I also remember at least one case from LA where ICE chased someone on to a road where they were hit and killed by a vehicle, which ought to be felony murder imo

[–] IchNichtenLichten@lemmy.wtf 37 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

"fatally shoots"

I know the media has its reasons for choosing how it describes events but this was a fucking execution.

[–] whosepoopisonmybuttocks@sh.itjust.works 24 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I think "murders" pretty much sums it up.

[–] SippyCup@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

Murder implies he's committed a crime he could be punished for.

He's a member of a fascist occupying force. He has committed an act of war.

Find a source of Styrofoam peanuts, used motor oil, and empty glass bottles. Let no fascist know a moment of peace.

Trump's Nazi force has killed a US citizen and even when punished Police/ICE don't change their behavior.

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 18 points 3 weeks ago

"fearing for his life, the lives of his fellow law enforcement and the safety of the public, fired defensive shots."

A lot of these diseased twats fear everything. They are cowards. They are the type of cowards that shoot people for pulling in to the wrong drive way or knocking on the wrong door. One on one they are cowering fools. I meet people like them all the time. Give them a gun and group of like minded cowards and you get a savage inhuman animal. That is how I see them all as animals. If anyone doesn't like my dehumanization of them you can pound sand.

[–] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 15 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Get the fuck out of Minneapolis ice. Get the fuck off our streets ice. Fuck off ice.

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

I see someone hates the cold as much as I do.

[–] IronBird@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago

3-4 shots to the fucking head

[–] anon_8675309@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

The one guy was forcibly trying to open the door. She probably didn’t see the shooter, focusing on the guy trying to open the door. She wasn’t trying to run anyone down.
