"The best they can do is shoot the guy in the back?"

Posted by sentinel

No, the best they could do was shoot the guy nine times in the back.

The people who did this are thinking about leaving the country.

There's no statute of limitations on murder.

If the man had been a bit taller, he might have kept it.

"NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte insisted Monday that Europe is incapable of defending itself without U.S. military support and would have to more than double current military spending targets to be able to do so"

Something of a contradiction there.

Jesus, ONEIRONAUT.

Trump is as likely to bring the man who killed Alex to trial as he is to fess up about kid didiling.

You are so bad at being self-righteous.

Maybe the sunken MAGA ship can serve as an artificial reef for, I don't know, dogfish?

JOHN SAVAGE---I don't know, that name just sounds gay to me.

How will the Democrats spin this as the Republicans fault?

They will spin it as the fascist's fault.

Take a bow.

ICE needs to be disbanded.

Its leadership and likely hundreds of its ex-members need to be prosecuted.

"But I don't like it when somebody goes into a protest and he's got a very powerful, fully loaded gun with two magazines loaded up with bullets also. That doesn't play good either."

I never like it when some open-carry dude interrupts me and my wife at our restaurant dinner in order to make damned sure that we both know he's armed.

But I know he doesn't deserve to be shot for it.

"Everything"?

Does that include the tapes?

Dems are creating mayhem by getting in the way of Law Enforcement

Posted by Maverick

It's not law enforcement.

ICE is the private paramilitary of Donald Trump.

Someone says "law enforcement" and you salivate like Pavlov's dog.

remember when Dems were always saying "no one is above the law?" funny how that no longer applies

Does it apply to the ICE agent who shot a helpless man four times in the back and killed him?

When will he be identified?

After 250 years of history, protests en masse are anything but peaceful in America.

The protests in Minnesota have been preternaturally peaceful. I am in awe.

There's something wrong with you, HUMTAKE.

Let me know if you want it explained to you.

If there were no illegals, ICE wouldn't be in MN.

There'd be some other fascist paramilitary.

Your president is a dictator, HUMTAKE.

I'm so sick of both sides and their hypocrisy

#8 | Posted by humtake

You have a side, HUMTAKE

"Imprisonment".

Obama knows he's on that List, as do Biden and the Clintons.

But the vindicative Dotard-in-Chief may revoke Obama's security clearance as punishment for speaking out, thus depriving him of the PDB.

There is a List, and Obama's name is on it.

The goal is his arrest and imprisonmen.

It's part of the plan for Trump to escalate violence. He's already signaling what he expects to get from it: specific political concessions from Minnesota.

Even if there were no plan, as Paul Krugman correctly points out, Trump won't back down from recent and future murders because his insane pride is at stake and he fears humiliation.

To the extent that there is anything rational about Trump's foreign policy, whatever he does is intended to cement his position as warlord and dictator.

In other words, the same as his domestic policy.

The surest thing in the world is that Trump will make his move to obliterate American democracy to save himself from the upcoming November elections.

It is true that Donald is a blob of increasingly mindless fat.

It is also true that souless monster Miller is the de facto President of teh United States.

"The party that has spent unlimited resources and energy getting states to pass laws to allow citizens to openly carry loaded weapons anywhere - now believes that exercising this right is permission for law enforcement to murder you"

Trump/MAGA/GOP, by and large, have no fixed values. As has been pointed at more than once, they say and do whatever is needed to grab or keep power.

This is pure Nazis.

I am surprised that the NRA came out for an investigation here. After all, half of MAGA obliterated their own concern about pedophiles as soon as Trump was implicated.

Trump feels the screws being turned on him. And even if there were no turning screws, there's every reason to think his ego basks in the killing. He's not done killing people yet.

Anent to this I sincerely think that Trump murdered Epstein. Trump's history as a "human being" screams it. If we are lucky enough to survive this present mess, I hope the entire world takes another hard look at the case.

Noem says, "this didn't turn violent until we uncovered fraud in Minnepolis."

Kristi Noem's eyes are as dead as those of a fish. A better illustration of the sociopath's predatory stare is hard to find.

Things turned violent, Ms. Noem, because you and Donald Trump are violent people who are overtly doing violence to achieve political and (quite insane) personal ends.

The topic is that Trump wants subjects, not citizens, is willing to to kill to get that, and you're willing to help in your own small way ay.

I just learned that Alex took four shots to the back. The maniacs who did this are still armed and at large.

No one here believes that he will be the last to be officially murdered.
