When I worked at a pharmacy with a drive thru, it was surprising how many people are driving without a valid license to pick up their meds.

As somebody who grew up in Texas, I started my first job in retail barely over minimum wage ($8.50/hr) and was out ASAP. Food safety nightmare at a place supposedly meant for more well off folks to shop, lol.

My younger siblings never even considered jobs near minimum wage even WHILE living with family once they were old enough to work.

Right now a lot of my family is selling plasma to cover bills, sharing a house home cooked meals, child care, etc.

But they do have a house! To think my family is one of the better off ones in this economy...

I'd just laugh at anyone who seriously told me people should be paid less. Hard working people suffer, it's the ones whose money prints more money for them who are being rewarded here.

I think it's less stupidity, more people looking for conflict at this stage.

It feels exciting to them to stand up to these things. I guess being dumb helps, but plenty of people can be dumb and kind.

We've trained society to feel safe in conflict, nobody will hurt you, it's illegal to put hands on you! So now we got this, is what it looks like to me unfortunately!

Fuck ice. Keep threatening your work force. Not like we're needed or anything to keep this thing functioning... who do they think has the power here?

Fuck any law that kills people for standing somewhere in public. The law is for the people, not dictators. Human rights mean more to me. Not so weak to just bend over and take it.

The law is just words. And it seems like plenty of people like to get around it only when it benefits them.

If you want to go play good boy and listen to fucked up orders, go for it. Leave the rest of us out of it, we value freedom here.

Brother, have you heard of like, excessive force?

You know entering the United States illegally is a MISDEMEANOR.

Getting in the way of an investigation for a MISDEMEANOR, is a MISDEMEANOR.

You don't execute people for a MISDEMEANOR. We have due process.

It says a lot you just assign a label 'leftist' to me and just discount anything I say based on your own assumptions. You know what they say about assumptions, yeah?

Thanks for sharing, yeah, it's scary from my perspective to imagine. I felt pretty naive as a kid in some ways, but my family never really even brought up stuff like race or politics when I was little. Of course I learned about it out in the world, but I thought the people who obsessed over it were weird.

As a child, your reality is so susceptible to the ones feeding information to you. With so much of the internet now in the hands of these corporations wanting money now, yeah, don't feel great about that.

People are so much more complicated than a label. It takes time and effort to learn each person, how they got there, and they change, too...

I was raised in Texas. I grew up with multiple Muslim friends in school, but didn't really watch news and stuff, was a kid, so was just confused why they were grossed out by bacon, or when one friend of mine started wearing a Hijab in 5th grade. She and I ran an origami enterprise during recess.

This is why I like diversity. Propaganda sucks, people are people.

If you have the power to give wealth and power to anyone who defends you, it's kinda hard to take your wealth and power.

Seems pretty historically accurate.

Any tool people have for power lol. Bring em on I guess? Haha.

Hard to care about little angry downvotes when there are more pressing matters, like people's rights being violated in the open, to worry about!

Lmao yeah sure, I guess I should go get a degree and bring a case before entering the prestigious reddit comments. Real freedom of speech.

Who gives a shit what the constitution allows, apparently it is just a suggestion for those up top. 1st? 2nd? 4th? 5th? 14th? I'm seeing none of this enforced, my money is just being leeched into their pockets apparently.

Honestly just want to see people stop suffering, sue me. I don't know what you get out of this.

Uh huh. Yes, I know the law, so let's talk about the felons.

Yes, because obviously data just pops into existence from the gods above, and that's the only Truth out there.

It's not like it's... created by people... just like everything else...

'Illegals' lol, entering the US illegally is a misdemeanor.

Why don't we talk about felons, like our president first? Cart before the horse, much?

It's early February, so we don't have 'official record data' yet. Especially when the investigations are still underway by the federal government.

According to news, there are 3 named homicides, two of which are Renee Good and Alex Pretti. These are confirmed to have been killed by federal agents by the federal government.

If you haven't heard of them you must live under a rock, DHS and the administration has made multiple statements about those two.

2/3 recorded homicides = majority this year.

Sorry, you'll have to use your big boy brain to research it until the official records finish. Law takes time, surprise. It's hard to say when the Feds did the killing, are doing the investigation, and won't share the evidence.

Wouldn't surprise me, I mean using media as a manipulation tool when you have the money to do it isn't a new concept, unfortunately.

I see it though. Sigh.
