Knowing that an ICE gulag of abuse, malnutrition, and miserable conditions awaited him, followed by possible deportation to Africa, Silverio Villegas-Gonzalez attempted to escape his persecutors and was killed. For this poor man, ICE was a Death Squad.

Let's see how many more deaths ICE will cause in 2026: www.ice.gov

I'm pretty sure if you use your vehicle as a weapon, you're going to get shot.

Leaving/avoiding is not a felony, or is it a capital offense.
The use of the vehicle as a weapon will need to be determined in a court of law.

My favorite line in the article sums up ICE and Trump's brainless morons perfectly:
'DHS said that ICE was targeting "a criminal illegal alien with a history of reckless driving" who "entered the country at an unknown date and time."'

Immediately they call him a criminal and illegal. Then they set up a traffic stop for someone they say they are looking for because he's apparently such a notable "reckless driver" they just have to get him off the roads, now!. Oh, and yeah - we have no idea when he entered the US, none at all. But really - we know who he is and that he's a terrible driver.

Maybe they should have considered all that before setting up a TRAFFIC STOP for an infamously known reckless driver?

You didnt watch the video.

Agent was not dragged

Agent was next to car as it backed up

Agent pulled gun and shot at a fleeing car 50-100 feet away that posed zero danger to anyone

ICE lied

The guy used his car as a weapon to hit and drag (DHS words -not mine)an agent, and got shot. The court does not determine if a government agent can defend themselves or not.

I don't care what DHS says. Cops lie all the time. DHS is not the least bit trustworthy. Noem is a lying walking talking shtshow.
The court does decide if the force was justified, if the car was used, intentionally, as a weapon.
If there is a lawsuit that's when we find things out.
Until then your opinion (which looks pretty stupid if you watch the video) is only your opinion.

No she wasn't. The investigation included videos and eye witnesses that showed her climbing through a window, empty handed, when she was shot and killed.

Was the father Charlie Kirk?

Because otherwise, it doesn't seem to matter when people are gunned down.

Weird, it's almost as if Trump needed Charlie Kirk to die to distract from the Epstein files and push his attack on the Democratic Party.

I'm going on record as saying that breaking into the capital to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power and breaking through a barrier with armed people on the other side then trying to climb through is peak stupidity and a clear "don't do this" to anyone but an idiot like Ashli -------.

People have been shot by cops for far less and tool bags like you have shrugged it off as "they should have complied."

So STFU you piece of s(*&.

Turds is a racist piece of shht.

He would regularly post racist tirades directed at me when the nooner was active.

So no, he doesn't care if Black or Brown people are killed, regardless of the facts surrounding their death.

But, 1 white woman ignoring secret service telling them to stay back, crawling through a window to get around a barricade, getting shot, is more than he can handle.

One shot for Ashli Babbitt!

#23 | Posted by lfthndthrds

In many states you are allowed to kill an invader who is illegally climbing into the window of your home. In this case, she broke the window to make such an illegal entrance. How was this any different?

Poor, stupid Ashli Babbitt.

She got caught up in Trump's big lie and was incited into joining an insurrection.

It's a shame none of those men around her helped lead the way, rather than encouraging her to cross a barricade and catch a bullet.

One shot for Ashli Babbitt!

She had a knife and broke through a barricade to let the crowd get to our elected officials.

Suicide by cop.

Hey by the way South Koreans are now reporting they were put in chains and treated like animals for 7 days after ICE raided the multi-billion dollar plant they were setting up for the benefit of 8500 high paying American jobs.

They had valid visas.

They were here legally.

They did everything right.

Trump still treated them like animals.

It was NEVER about "legal" immigration. It was always about banning non-white immigration.

Had Trump simply conceded the 2020 election, just like every other losing POTUS candidate in history, Ashli Babbitt would still be alive.

You MAGAt scum have nobody else to blame but your cult leader Trump for her death.

The DC Police should have dusted anybody that was attempting to enter the Capitol that day. If it was BLM or Anti that is exactly what white wingers would had said. These Nazees always align with Shitler aka TRump, the lying conniving, grifting, daughter lusting traitor and 34 x felon when it comes to protests especially when it is a large formation of their own fat entitled Trumpanzees then, for some bizarro reason they should get a pass or pardon when they are attempting to stop the count of a national election and kill those representatives they do not like. I was happy that they blasted that treasonous bitch and she got what she deserved when she climbed through that door frame. FAFO! It's not like she and and her fellow Trumpanzees were chanting "Hang Pence, Hang Nancy Pelosi and hang Schumer." What was the police supposed to do let them hang our representatives?
