Live updates: Frey, Walz dispute that ICE killed woman in self-defense
www.mprnews.org
ICE officials say the woman was shot and killed Wednesday morning in south Minneapolis after attempting to run over agents with her car. Mayor Jacob Frey called ICE’s version of what happened “garbage.” Gov. Tim Walz also challenged that narrative. He’s expected to speak shortly.

I don’t even know what else to add to this headline. This is so fucked up and tragic scary and infuriating and it will in no way slow the resistance.

      You people are ridiculous. I hope you’re bots and not thinking individuals.

          Does she need to have your back? Was she even part of the dialogue until you whatabouted her into the conversation? She’s a shitty person and a fucking cop who supports bad historical policies that benefit the rich. But I can safely say that she wouldn’t invade a sovereign nation for her own personal gain. She doesn’t have a long history of fucking children and getting away with it. She wouldn’t tank the entire economy, remove people’s right to marry or get health care or endorse a reckless anti-vaxxer whose efforts will be felt for decades (but only by the survivors of outbreaks of what should be long extinct diseases). She would do shitty things to good people. She wouldn’t fix the system. But she wouldn’t be doing gestures around all of this. And maybe you can’t respect the idea of harm reduction. Maybe you don’t know a lot of people hanging on in the fringes or maybe you’ve crossed over it and don’t give a fuck about others anymore. But I still do. I still want my friends to live. I still want a future for the children of today.

            you whatabouted her

            I corrected asafum’s miscalculation. Judging by the downvotes and replies, it is whataboutism with 70% of the population instead of taking down rulers.

            Fixing the system is what all of us need to do together. 70% of the population don’t want to fix the system from the top.

            The only future for our friends and children is to take the rulers down. Right now, 70% of the population don’t want a future.

                  Have you liberated any deathcamps, or are you just gonna be smug about everyone else who hasn’t?

                  Cause it seems like that would take an armed militia, and since you profess to be a member of one, that really raises the question why you haven’t liberated any deathcamps.

                    A deathcamp takes at the least a ten comrades to raid 1. We need lookouts, scouts, radio, medics, infiltration, extraction, and defense. Solitary I can’t do anything unless 9 of you become brave enough.

                    Ideally if 25% of the population gets together, we can take all of them down simultaneously.

                    The second answer to to your question is blatant if you comprehend the mission to recruit above.

                Constitutionally, the militia is the whole body of the people, and We The People are most definitely armed.

                You are a member of an armed militia.

                  Are you forgetting that it goes “a well-ordered militia…”

                  A bunch of scattered people with their own firearms is not the same thing as a well-ordered militia. Winning wars requires organization as much as it requires logistics and personnel.

                  The left is so rife with infighting that they’ll never unite enough to organize militarily behind a common cause. Can you imagine a bunch of wannabe anarchists trying to form a chain of command? It almost seems worthy of a comic.

                  And the armed right actively support this fascist regime, so they won’t be much help either.

                  Yeah, some militia. Really instills confidence and makes one want to go fight and die beside one’s comrades /s

                    “Regulated”, not “ordered”, but I understand your point.

                    The Left and the Right both celebrate Luigi. Our differences are not nearly as significant as our commonalities.

          If you’re a Black Panther then where are you in these neighbourhoods protecting the people?

          All these tough gangstas in the USA but none of them standing up and actually protecting their “turf.”

          I know that “lesser evil” isn’t a good material condition, but exactly how the fuck is this?

          Wow another anarcho-pantherist on Lemmy! Good luck arguing with the liberals over here on Lemmy.world. You’re better off ignoring any news/politics community on this instance and sticking to spaces friendlier to the left than to genocide apologists.

              Yea yea electoral politics is the only thing you care about. I’ve heard it before. Militant opposition to fascism doesnt involve voting for the less fascist party once in a blue moon, but that doesnt mean you can assume who I voted for or that I didnt vote.

              The US has been a violent occupier in my community since long before Trump and nothing about team blue winning in 2024 would have changed that. A so called “actual leftist” would understand the harms of punching left over fucking electoral politics.

            Stop focusing on me, but instead the people who oppress you. Right now, it’s ICE and Trump. They’ve shown you they are willing to kill protest.
            Time to show them what that means.

          You’d be having a bigger effect being angry on Twitter then, instead of (effectively) incentivising infighting in a social media predominantly inhabited by the people who are opposing all of these atrocities

          You’re doing a real good job of making me go “idgaf about Americans” with this non-solidarity, because from what I’m seeing you’re only driving people (with similar interests) away that could join in opposition to trump
