I cannot believe I am posting that another civilian was shot to death this morning in Minneapolis by Border Patrol or ICE. Details are scant at this time and I reject the official DHS account because they have been so willing to lie and manipulate the truth about so many things in the past 18 months.
The current credible account is that the person had a 9mm with two loaded magazines. We do not know if he was acting violently towards anyone or not. We have conceal-carry laws in our city (with permit) — it is not known if he had that permit. DHS officials claim they were conducting a “targeted arrest”, but did not disclose if this person was the subject. In the past, those words have been described to account for detailing and arresting racially profiled people and an excuse for demanding citizenship papers.
It sounds like this might have been around a residual protest carrying over from yesterday where thousands walked the downtown streets in -16°F weather. It was not a protest where permits had been sought (or it evolved into an protest lacking a permit after the shooting this morning).
The white man was 37 years old [and revealed to be a US citizen as I wrote this post]. The not-very-credible Federal government is saying he did not carry any ID. I’ll wait for someone else to tell me that, thank you. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Accounts indicate that he was pinned to the ground [and disarmed by new accounts] and being pepper-sprayed when he was shot multiple times. I have yet to see those videos [I’ve seen one (WARNING: may be upsetting to watch), and it looks fucking damning to me] but, if so… As far as I know, resisting arrest is not punishable by death [especially if six people are kicking and punching you]. If you are pinned and pepper-sprayed, it is hard to believe you are quite enough danger to those holding you down to be murdered for it.
In the past three weeks, we’ve seen multiple atrocities in our city:
- Using children under 6 years of age as bait. Twice. And then keeping them in “protective custody” afterwards instead of releasing them to their families not part of their current “targeted list”. In most places, we call that kidnapping.
- A woman shot 3 times because she pissed off someone by trying to drive away after being ordered to drive away by another agent. “Fucking bitch” was what he said immediately after murdering her.
- A baby almost dying because a family of six happened to drive in the same neighborhood as a flashpoint of ICE activity; an agent tossing flashbangs under the care and tear gas around underage children. The baby quit breathing and needed CPR.
- A man shot through his door because he saw masked men tussling with someone living with him. They accused him of trying to assault the officer with a snow shovel as justification. The injured person and witnesses deny that account. There were children in that home that could have been killed by a stray bullet aimed at the man who had left the altercation.
- A man who has been a legal resident since early 1970s had his home invaded by ICE, who refused to let him put on pants and refused to let him get identification, and made him go to their detention facilities in his underwear in near-zero weather. Hours later, he was released when it was determined he was not the rapist they claimed him to be. No one within 2 miles of the home is on any sex-offender registries, and ICE refuses to say who they were targeting.
- We have these thugs demanding people show proof of citizenship to people because they aren’t white. This includes off-duty police officers of color.
I can go on. This is just a small sample. They are all verified stories via journalists. I don’t use social media anymore, so these are not just sensationalism and rumors.
And the occupiers have the audacity to blame the victims in each and every case.
Welcome to AMERIKA.
I can’t believe my city, known for “Minnesota Nice”, is the target of the infant-in-chief’s retribution tour.
Governor Walz, please activate the National Guard to protect our citizens from these state-sponsored terrorists calling themselves ICE.
