Yup.

6 ICE officers with one citizen on the ground that is TOTALLY RESTRAINED..
No mob. No rocks being thrown. No molotov cocktails being tossed.
No evidence of him being a criminal or engaging in a crime.

And people here continue to post and imply that the cops firing 10 bullets into him was legit.
Because he wasn't standing on the sidewalk?

Oh please.

He absolutely was not "totally restrained." They did not have his hands behind his back and he was not cuffed. And the reason is that he was resisting.

let me blow a bunch of whistles and honk a bunch of horns while federal agents are trying to operate

this will definitely lead to good outcomes

I suspected this to be a possibility as well. "Easy enough to check". …..this assumes that the evidence is preserved and an investigation is undertaken. Was it and is it?
You'd think it would be important so as to learn a thing or two how to handle these situations without bloodshed

---

The Minneapolis Police Chief has already stated that the "scene" has been contaminated.

Interestingly enough, the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension was refused access to investigate the scene by the Feds and the FBI isn't involved. The latter is highly bizarre for a case like this.

Let's assume for a moment that what you just said is true.
Are we to assume that 6 ICE officers were unable to properly restrain a single suspect and cuff them?

Sure sounds like these people weren't trained properly.
Or are you continuing to claim that they were?

I've had 2 former high ranking FBI agents here in the Bay Area tell me as much along with a recently retired police lieutenant at a local East Bay police department.

🚨🇺🇸 BREAKING: Protesters in Los Angeles just projected an anti-ICE video onto a building.

And it wasn’t just any building.

It was Twin Towers, an ICE-linked detention facility where LASD actively collaborates with ICE for deportation screening.

The liberal strategy on this, I guess, is since not enough people care about brown people being arrested and abused for being brown people, let's get as many dumbass white liberals to start physical confrontations with ICE agents that will always end in ICE 7, Confrontational Liberal 0. And that's not to say that the ICE agent is always right or is ever right even once in the situation for shooting the other person, but that the angry white liberal is never ever ever going to come out the winner in that situation.

If you think that's a cause worth throwing your life away for, by all means let's thin the herd of these dumbass white liberals who think they can confront armed feds and come out the winner. Less future idiots who will vote for vapid idiots like Gavin Newsom, Jasmine Crockett, Kamala Harris, et al.

Better smarter strategy is to protest non-violently with your voice and your words and your signs, and your stupid chants and stop threatening armed feds who are looking for any excuse to shoot you.

---

I agree that it makes no sense to confront people with guns who a) are not local and b) ready to use them. It's more like US soldiers in Iraq than police who are under the auspices of government

Where we disagree is that this part of an organized "liberal" protest at the behest of Dem pols. It's not and not like the bull$hot " No Kings" which is.

What is going on in Minnesota is surveillance of ICE through local signal groups. Local groups know where they are at any moment and are often there minutes after they are. The people that are missing are local police and that creates a flash point between the occupiers and would be resisters ( who if smarter would take the tactics of either non violence or the IRA). Instead everything is treated as a recording

There is a lot else happening which is less reported. There are food drives and material drives for immigrants. There was an organized strike, where businesses voluntarily closed. There have been protests against airlines flying deportees out and boycotts of businesses. Minneapolis is not businesss as usual

The Democratic Party is against all of this because it disturbs the status quo. Their approach is to have Gavin Newsom tweet that Kristi Noem should resign.

So let the protests continue but with better tactics.

Perhaps, but let's be honest: most of the public would likely not know how abusive ICE is being without some of these "dumba*s white liberals" forcing the confrontations. These incidents captured on video are quickly turning public opinion and forcing the politicians to react.

It also seems to me, based on the videos, that it's largely ICE being confrontational here. Protestors are there being generally annoying but ICE chooses to engage people they could otherwise just leave alone.

I don't believe I said anything about the Democratic Party organizing this. Certainly, they've been happy to turn up the temperature with their rhetoric, but they're not gonna get their hands dirty in something like this.

Privately behind the scenes though, they're thrilled that someone else is martyring for them so that they can gain a few points in the polls.

Within the first 4 seconds of the video. He moved toward the officer - covered between 2-4 steps or shuffles, got between the officer and the woman and put his hand on the officer. He moved quickly and purposefully. "Rushed" is an acceptable description, IMO.

And again, he did that while being a CCP with a firearm who presumably has not announced that he's carrying to the officers. If that proves true this is off the charts irresponsible, stupid and dangerous.
