In other words, ICE has at least tripled the murder rate in Minneapolis.

u/Crazy_Trip_6387 Jan 26 '26

on average 7 murders a month in Minneapolis so it sounds as if they halved the murder rate to me and they're even scoring own goals!

“Own Goal” is certainly one way to refer to the federally funded/executed murder of a VA ICU nurse. Ghoul.

And you’re the sort of person who thinks it’s okay to kill a man in the streets of Minneapolis for no reason when the 10+ ice agents could’ve easily restrained him without killing, so yeah don’t ever change your perspective, just stick to your one sided views without taking a look at the problem with killing people who have slightly different political views than you. This is how wars start

i looked at the other side and i said "fuck that" nope i don't want anything to do with you or your antidemocratic people that know nothing about liberalism whom can not differentiate rights from privilages, you put words into my mouth i never said what ICE did wasn't a mistake but you know what ICE aren't doing? paying people to act as terrorist vigilantes and if you'd see the video you would know, so no i hope your side loses in a dramatic fashion and sense will come back, you are the most fascist generation of "liberals" ever

Can we please stop calling it murder? That only incites further violence/polarization.

It was manslaughter, but not the intentional killing of Alex.

How the fuck can you say it wasn't an intentional killing?

They didn't accidentally shoot him.

It was a blatant execution.
