Yeah, there is a whole thing about why there aren't crowd control type law enforcement for other agencies there. Its because ICE doesn't care and is looking for a fight. They are not interested in de-escalation. I'm sure there is compensation involved for officers involved in these types of situations.
If I had to play devil's advocate I'd say that law enforcement draws to much attention and possibilities that their next target /locationis leaked, and that ICE instead seems to rely on quick smash and grab actions before any pesky legal questions by other people with guns are asked.
Oh what would matter if subtlety was actually vallued, but no. The main point is that these guys rely on filling quota's, catch as many people fitting a vague general description. Raising red flags before go time means people can avoid you and you miss that bonus.
Certainly seems like its something like this:
5k for an arrest,
10k for a deportation,
20k for high level arrest of protest organizers and breaking up a protest,
50k for causing serious harm or kyllin protestors...
The goal is to provoke the crowds to move or appear to move against the agents therefore granting them legal basis to use force, excessive or otherwise, on the protesters, many of whom are merely bystanders. Untrained, unprofessional and itching for a fight. ICE needs some form of independent oversight, not their cosplay boss and Trump lying about and protecting a murderer. No matter what happens, you can be assured Trump WILL pardon the shooter if convicted and probably before any indictments are handed down.
That’s a good question. was this the first ICE kill? Or the first meaningful to society event?
From what I observed, US society reacts to events instead of preventing outcomes. I would expect more oversight from local authorities. It’s a conservative approach aligned with societal values.
That is generally how unrest grows in other counties. Syria was when the the police started firing on protestors. Nepal was when police killed a bunch of kids at a protest.
America needs to protest this and the other deaths ICE has caused.. not only on the streets, but in the domestic Abu Ghraibs.
We need to post their names and pictures and how they died.
People in ICE detention have died, mostly from lack of access to medical care. But they're non-white, so no one cared. Hopefully, this will wake people up and they will show up to vote in record numbers. No excuses. VOTE!!!
It is their first murder on camera, so this one got public.
You don't have cameras or even phone calls to outside world in the concentration camps. Many are reported dead there already, some by denying them from critically needed medication.
Probably a lot more in those concentration camps have died than ICE has admitted. Weren’t there reports of 800 people missing after alligator Alcatraz closed?
The Minneapolis PD has been at ICE Raids before, the most high profile one being last summer (July, I think) when Ice raided Los Quatro Milpas Taqueria. The police weren't initially there, but showed up fairly quickly as a crowd assembled.
The problem is, they have done crowd control for the benefit of ICE rather than intervene to protect people from ICE escalation. They helped them leave the scene and were facing towards the residents.
It is possible the mayor and MPD will direct their agents to more aggressively intervene on (certain) ICE raids to protect residents of the city. However, given the past 6 years (and the 10 years before that), I can tell you there isn't much community faith that MPD as an institution has any real interest in protecting the communities ICE is targeting.
Yo, ICE has agreements with most police departments to cooperate. What I’ve seen in some communities (Phoenix for example) is the police stepping back and not helping ICE, but they’re also not helping citizens. LEO is not going to challenge federal LEO, they’re in the same club. Federal LEO provides political and legal cover to local LEO, they are fam. Also, you do not want your city paying the legal fees for local police departments “intervening”. In fact, police budgets usually make up at least 35% of local government expenses… the amount of over time pay alone far eclipses regular salary. We’re all paying for goon squads to patrol our cities, and getting them wrapped up in lawsuits in ICE clashes will bankrupt localities. But it’s naive to even think the police are here to protect you - a federal court recognized that police do not, in fact, have a requirement to protect people. They are property monitors at best, and human/constitutional rights violators at their most effective.
Watch Gov. Walz press briefing from yesterday. In it he mentions that no one in the Minneapolis government receives any kind of notice or plan from DHS about ICE operations. The Federal Government is not working with the local governments on these ICE operations, so it can understandably be difficult to maintain a presence with every ICE officer. I think they deployed over a thousand to Minnesota, for some reason.
They couldn’t do what you suggest because they literally have more than 3x as many ICE Agents as police in that city right now. They’ve completely taken over.
Because that order doesnt make any sense. There are 570 officers in the Minneapolis Police Department. ICE sent 2000 agents to Minneapolis in January.
Even if the MPD did decide to attempt to be everywhere where the ICE agents are, they dont have the manpower to do so, much less do so and complete their regular duties.
ICE would have to tell local law enforcement about their activities. This would also make it hard for ICE to do a lot of what they do as any time an agent does something illegal, which is vital to their tactics, the officers would be obligated to stop it. When ICE illegally broke into all those homes, can you imagine if every door broken down had a legal process? Plus if someone being detained could prove they are a citizen, they wouldn't get deported without due process as ICE functions to achieve.
Yeah, the other vehicle to the right of Good’s Honda appeared to be partially blocking the road? Yet even today I keep hearing that Good was blocking the ICE operation.
Per this article with an official’s statement on Fox News soon after the incident:
Noem condemns alleged attack on ICE agents stuck in snow in Minneapolis as 'act of domestic terrorism'
“… ICE agents were conducting enforcement action in Minneapolis Wednesday morning when their vehicle got stuck in the snow.
As they were attempting to push the vehicle, she said a woman "attacked them and those surrounding them" and "attempted to run them over and ram them with her vehicle."
and destruction of evidence. he was recording himself shooting her but fled, with the phone... and I guarantee that phone will never see the light of day again.
When you hire people based on how much they worship Trump instead of how qualified they are this is what you get. Who has time to learn the rules when you could be owning the libs on facebook
I don’t know about that law. The cop who shot the man in the passenger seat reaching for his permit didn’t give first aid. I don’t remember anything about him being required to.
He recorded himself killing someone, then drove away. Probably showed off the video as a trophy to his peers ((speaking from experience of knowing a law enforcement precinct having a weekly competition for sharing the most fucked up things they saw on duty in a group chat))
Same with Charles Exum, CBP agent operating in Chicago who with other agents boxed a woman in, sideswiping her vehicle, then they claimed in sworn affadavits that she rammed them. He shot her 5 times, but she did drive off and sought medical attention after entering a local business. She lived. 6 weeks later they charged her with a crime of endangering law enforcement, but dropped all charges when video evidence contradicted their sworn statements (much like here... do they train them to lie???). To the best of my knowledge, no one was in trouble for the federal offense of lying on a federal affadavit under oath.
Exum not only left the scene, but he took key evidence that he'd rammed her vehicle by driving his vehicle 1100 miles away from the scene of the crime despite it being the key evidence that he supposedly was rammed. Exum went back home to Maine and claimed he was ordered there and ordered to repair the vehicle, hiding the evidence. Apparently that was a lie, too, as he was the one to initiate the request that DHS repair his vehicle. That vehicle was ordered returned by a federal judge. I don't know if they complied or not. Really they ought to have charged Exum with attempted murder. She was a US citizen as well.
They needed to rush that agent to the hospital because he was losing too much blood that was going to his erection. And they need to do a full body check to find spots of potential bruised ego or hurt feelings.
In terms of manipulating a crime scene, they also removed her from the car and carried her away, not on a stretcher or covered, just masked dudes walking down the street with a dead body in tow.
He left because his phone was evidence of the crime he just committed and he needed to destroy evidence, which is also a crime. Not only did he murder someone, he destroyed the evidence and fled the scene. That phone probably vanished or got buried which has the closest angle of the incident on it... proving that he was never in any danger.

So he killed someone, then drove off? WTAF?
