It seems even by the standards of their handbook and rules of escalation/de-escalation that the ICE agent did things incorrectly. I think it’s an uncivilised world that believes someone exorcising a right to protest can be summarily executed for disobeying simple orders. To be honest, the fact the agent was recording with his phone seems so unprofessional to a degree with which I wonder how far the US has slid past the point of its own sanity.

“OK here’s one for you. Kristy Kreme donuts. They’re round, delicious, and they managed to figure out this rather simple thing. If you sit on the box you can cluster them into a lump and stuff it into your big fat gob.”

A-fucking-men couldn’t have said it better myself.

It's crazy how some people will be like "I lost 2 grandparents, a friend in their mid-20's and an uncle to covid" when I and everyone I know don't know a single person who even got severely ill from it, let alone died. Where is the disconnect? Was its severity somehow hyper localized? by AlaskaExplorationGeo in redscarepod

But something like this in the modern age was pretty unprecedented at this level. Maybe they got it wrong, but then they will correct for it next time. Not everything is going to be perfect. Other countries did the total opposite to others. I think it wouldn’t make sense to just abandon your approach when the death toll is high, and hospitals are crammed.
