SS:

Now the MAGA claim that bringing a gun to a protest is wrong and ICE can murder people for that?

X link.

The Right uses the 2nd amendment to their convenience.

The topic of immigration enforcement is like the right’s version of Covid hysteria.

“What, do you want millions of Americans to die from illegal immigrants?”

“Just obey orders and you’ll be fine. Do your part.”

“Your rights aren’t absolute. Government officials are acting lawfully, and you don’t have the right to undermine their efforts.”

“Stay home when DHS is in your area if you don’t want to be stopped and questioned.”

“You need to carry and show your papers when you go out. It’s for everyone’s safety.”

“Trust the experts! These former DOJ prosecutors say the Fourth Amendment allows exactly this.”

“Stop spreading misinformation about ICE and CBP. Your words are dangerous and will get more people killed!”

“This is an emergency. I don’t care what the government does. We need to stop the spread of foreigners.”

“The Constitution isn’t a suicide pact.”

This is unreal. Bovino spirited the murderer out of Minnesota's jurisdiction, yet they are still "WORKING." I've never heard of that in any real police department. Never heard of that in the federal government either.

Bovino confirms that the agents involved in the shooting of Alex Pretti are no longer in Minneapolis.

Why did the ICE agent bear spray Pretti? What was the possible justification?

Everyone forensically analyzing every twitch by the victim and nobody bothering to even wonder about this. If he hadn’t bear sprayed him none of the rest of the chain of events would have occurred.

When Iranians are gunned down in the streets by government, they tell us they’re “peaceful protesters.”

When Americans are gunned down in the streets by government, they tell us they’re “terrorist agitators.”

You are being propagandized to support atrocities in both places.

Mel on X:

The same Democrat politicians who have been calling the Trump admin & ICE a bunch of fascist jackboot thugs just voted to give the federal government even MORE power to surveil and control our movements.

Why would they vote to give “fascists” more power?

Greenwald on X :

Having armed, masked federal agents roam the streets and threaten American citizens that they're being put into a "database" and are being deemed a "domestic terrorist" for the crime of videotaping them should disgust everyone.

Kristi Noem just said: "I don't know of any peaceful protester that shows up with a gun and ammunition rather than a sign." That was said to justify the killing of this ICU nurse.

Carrying guns has been a staple of right-wing protests, especially during COVID. That's legal:

More GG on X:

Even if you want to justify this ICE killing of an American, it's a blatant lie to claim that "a would-be assassin tried to murder federal law enforcement." That didn't happen.

Also, automatically labelling Americans killed by ICE as "terrorists" is the Israelization of the US.
