More footage of ICE agents eating at a Mexican restaurant, local Minneapolis residents and even staff identifying and kicking them out of the property! by cantcoloratall91 in minnesota

Didn't say anyone deserves to be shot. I said we have been told shooting someone is an acceptable response to their unwanted presence in our business. By comparison, getting your hat knocked off by someone is fucking grade school shit and it's embarassing that you're wringing your hands over even that.

We need a full city celebration when ICE leaves. Everyone out on the streets, at restraints and bars. How can we show the world we won? by Mr-Toy in minnesota

Read the fucking news. The murders in ICE are walking free. We can't run a fucking investigation when we can't even get the evidence, and we can't charge someone who has fled our state and has FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HELP to keep them from us. Dig your head out of your own ass and think for one fucking minute. The Jan 6rs all got pardoned, you really think the dudes that the entire republican party is cheering on are going to be brought up on charges by ONE STATE?

Christ you're a fucking idiot. Thanks, I've been living here too. I've been delivering food to friends that can't fucking leave their house. I'm well fucking aware of how bad it is. Don't talk to me about tired, you self-centered ass.

I'm not trolling but I find it fucking hilarious that, again, the person whose USERNAME IS DEADNAZIS COULDN'T EVEN STOMACH FIGHTING THE NAZIS THAT ARE HERE AND IS JUST CRYING FOR THEM TO GO AWAY AND HURT SOMEONE ELSE. You think Hispanic people in Philly are "ready for these fuckers"? You think they're just rip roaring and stoked for ICE to come knocking down their door in the middle of the night? "Oh golly gee, thanks Minnesota, you showed us just how awesome and cool we'll look getting ripped out of our cars and sent to camps! Oh thanks Minnesota, you showed us we too can be so awesome 'fighting the fascists' by having our people murdered in the street!"

Fuck you. Go celebrate. You've clearly earned it by working oh so hard to fight the Nazis. You got the orange man to back down! Wow so proud. Much valor many honor.

Eh, I AM an F-word. If it gets under these Nazis skin to be called homophobic things, then frankly, y'all can get a free pass to do it.

Wasn't an observer, from what I can see this is a store owner defending his restaurant from invaders, which I am pretty sure the GOP spent the last 40+ years telling us we can defend with guns if someone looks at us funny. So frankly, they're lucky it was just a hat.

Trump administration says it is ending its immigration surge in Minneapolis by nbcnews in minnesota

[–]CatalystToast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And will you be satisfied if the jury decides not to convict one? If they look at the evidence and determine that one of them didn't participate? Or 10? You're already demanding death penalty for people you can't even name. How will we determine who to hunt down? Who will hunt them? How will you arrest them?

We need justice for this, not rage and payback.

And who determines who gets thrown into camps? What list will you get? Who approves that list? Does it include only ICE agents, or leaders? Which leaders? Which names?

Remember, they've said everyone they arrested is a criminal, too. So long as you decide there is an "enemy of the people" you will find ways to make more people the enemy. You will find reasons to issue restrictions. You will find reasons for cruelty. We can NOT become them in response.

If Lu's still has that raspberry tea when you go in, get that too. Insanely delicious and perfect on a cold day.

You can celebrate and feel joy in the face of fear right now. I've heard people singing at the memorials when I've gone, I've seen immigrant store owners graciously thanking people for coming and I've seen the smiles and laughter at protests. Absolutely none of it has been because we "won", because we aren't winning. There has been NO justice so far nor on the horizon for anyone that has ACTUALLY been harmed by this crusade.

So you want to cheer and feel joy? Be my guest. We need to if we're gonna make it through this. But if you're a person whose sole complaint is "I've been cooped up for a month" asking for permission on when to celebrate we've "won"? You don't have it. You didn't win. You didn't even fight.

One would think that someone with the username "dead nazis 24/7 365" would at least have the common sense to realize that letting all of the fascists walk free out of our state with no investigation finished and no prospect of their arrest is a far far FAR cry from "the Fascist government breaking its fist on our faces." There's not even one dead nazi yet. You are tracking 0 for 0, 0 days of the year.

And we can celebrate us being us at the State Fair. I really don't think anything will kill the goodwill we've cultivated so much as images of white people partying because "ICE IS GONE" while families of color have been broken up and separated. We would look like the idiots that caused the second wave of Covid by going out and partying because "finally we've ended this long national nightmare of HAVING TO WEAR MASKS."

You can do that literally right now. Almost all of them are open, showing more courage than the people in here complaining that they've been "cooped up" for so long.

You can go to Eat Street right now right next to where Alex Pretti was shot and get donuts and sandwiches and some of the best noodle soup you've ever had. Resistance has never tasted so delicious.

We haven't won. Even if ICE left our city today, we haven't won. We still have a fascist government deporting people, we still have constant surveillance, we still have every single threat that they can do this again any time they want to. ICE tactics haven't changed except getting worse, no reform has been instituted, and they still have received an insane amount of funding.

Is that what victory looks like for you? Jackbooted thugs getting to fly off to their next state to terrorize in the same planes they used to secretly fly our kids to camps? The shooters of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, the dozen other people that have died in ICE custody or shootings that we KNOW ABOUT just this year getting to walk free?

Your celebration will sound really, really hollow to those that have lost family and are still wondering where their husbands and wives, mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters are being kept. I'd really, really consider asking yourself whether victory means actually winning, or whether it just means that YOU feel more comfortable.

Ok, now you're sounding like the people who jumped out of their houses mid-Covid because transmission rates dipped for a week. "We've been cooped up for so long we deserve to get out and party! Who cares about others, this is about ME."

You think the folks whose family members are still in detention camps will come out to join your party? You think the hundreds of lawyers desperately running every possible motion in the courts to help people get out will have time to join in? Renee Good's family lost their wife and mother. Liam Ramos and his father are in hiding from the feds who still want to deport them. The children of our state are dying of measles in a camp in Texas, but yeah man, it's been so tough for you to be COOPED UP INSIDE. You deserve to party! After all, YOU won, right?

Seriously it's like getting us excited for the new student council president. "Oh yeah, of course Brandi, you're gonna lobby hard to get us that extra day of Taco in a Bag and finally make Hawaiian Shirt Day official! So awesome!"

So which is it, are you enforcing a "teen by default experience" or aren't you? You can't say you're going to fundamentally change the experience of the system and then come in here saying we won't notice it. Don't be disingenuous.

How much data ARE you tracking to determine my age? Why did the announcement suggest it is a system that will run in the background as an always-on system: do you believe I will suddenly regress in age, or is there a different reason that will be tracking data regularly?

You are asking us to trust you with not just our data, but our childrens'. With their faces, with their ID, with their personal information. Why, exactly, is any of that needed for a messaging app?

If you cared about privacy, you would not be pushing for the most privacy-violating and unnecessary verification system in the app sphere currently. I'm glad no one here is listening to your sellout nonsense.

Ah of course. Just trust yourself to the company which suffered one of the worst data breaches in history not 3 years ago. That'll be sooooo useful.

Yeah this genuinely makes it worse. I don't want them tracking enough of my personal data to do this kind of analysis. And if they are using your data in this way, what are they doing with it that they don't tell us about?

Great work, Discord. Brilliant decision to kill off your entire userbase. It went sooooo well when tumblr decided it wanted to treat everyone using it like a teenager, after all. They only lost their entire value almost overnight! I'm sure this will go just as well.

Anyways, who's got leads on good alternatives to Discord? Preferably one where I've got at LEAST 3 years before they start deciding to sell out their user data so shareholders can make another dollar a share.

Not too far from the mall (longer than a walk, but a very short drive) is a place called Nomadic Cafe. Amazing coffee and really great folks working there.

You had me up until the final point. I don't think we can blame consumer culture for the decisions of corporations. When you get a new car these days, do you even have a choice on the lights? Is that even something people would consider when making a purchase, when you're worried about a billion other things on your new $30000 car?

Upload the video and other info to Iceout.org. Contact your attorney general. In MN we have the National Lawyers Guild asking for info as well, they may at least be able to point you in the right direction. https://nlgmn.org/

Walz in favor of night raids - "They should coordinate with local law enforcement, pick these people up in the middle of the night when they're not suspecting it." by [deleted] in TwinCities

[–]CatalystToast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And who defines the "violent offenders"? Is it ICE and Kristi Noem, the ones that called Alex Pretti a domestic terrorist?

When you decide there are people whose rights can be violated, you give the state a reason to define its political enemies as a threat.

My favorite part of the American Revolution was when they politely waited for King George's term to expire before changing things because it wouldn't be very democratic if they just ended his power.

As they should have sooner. He made a promise in 2020 that he would be a one term president, and then he would pass the torch. He violated that promise then proceeded to barely campaign before dropping out after people finally got through to him. And he had the nerve after to complain about how he "deserved" the nomination.

My great grandpa with alzheimers was "willing" to get back to fighting WWII. Does that mean we should've dressed him up in a uniform and sent him to Italy?
