*dumb, ignorant nonsense*
This is false equivalence dressed up as tough guy cosplay. Protesting cops is legal. Obstructing an arrest is a specific charge that requires proportional force and due process, which ICE routinely ignores. Comparing immigration enforcement to taxes is brain dead, because crossing a border is a civil violation, not a felony. And the IRS Gestapo fantasy is just paranoid fan fiction. You are defending state violence while pretending you care about the law, when what you actually care about is punishing people you dislike. That makes you not principled, just a bootlicking moron.

On the contrary, she was doing her best to do a hard right turn to get away from the agents, as is clear from the position of her front wheels, which you can see clearly in the New York Times video material.
Wow! What an ignorant statement.

The agent that shot her was in front of the car, he couldn't see the wheels, you idiot! Doesn't matter what you see from a side view, what matters is what he saw, and from the front of the car he saw a vehicle/weapon coming towards him. This is really simple to understand. It amazes me how stupid progressives are, and that they believe the American people are stupid enough to believe their childish bullsxxt.

You do realize Trump is the President and the Republicans are in charge of the house and the senate? It's because you idiot progressives are so ignorant, and so determine to "get" Trump, the American people are willing to vote for Trump over your insane stupidity!

If you are still there, Dr Shades, may I ask if you have reviewed the material in this thread, and if so what do you think?
From the video, it’s clear that she was indeed driving toward him. He was able to get out of the way, but he did indeed fire after the imminent danger had passed.
The idiot progressives on this thread that are condemning the shooting, are the same people that said Lt. Michael Byrd, a FEDERAL OFFICER, was justified in shooting an unarmed woman for crawling through a window at the Capitol on January 6th.

Not only did the democrats say he was justified shooting her, a unarmed woman, the Biden administration gave the shooter the Department of Justice "Valor Award" :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

So yeah, they are hypocrites! Because now that a FEDERAL AGENT shoots a woman for hitting him with a car, they say it wasn't justified.

Pure stupidity on their part! All they are doing is allowing the Republicans to strengthen their numbers in the upcoming 2026 elections. The American people are going to punish them for acting like a bunch of insane lunatics.

I don’t read the HoH’s posts because he’s on Ignore, but let’s be real, the latest GOP talking point is to justify this murder. MAGA cowards like the HoH, who hasn’t actually done anything brave in his broken life, shoot innocent women because they’re scared of their own shadows. They then pat themselves on the back like it’s bravery.

The HoH is obese, lazy, and terrified of working for a living, sponging off the government, yet he lectures the internet about patriotism and lazy people while hiding behind his keyboard.

Internet tough guys, smdh.

For patriotic Americans who care about the law, they had no right to try to detain her in the first place. They definitely didn't have the right to summarily execute her because they were actively violating her rights, and violating the law by attempting to exercise police powers that they don't have.
They totally had the right to detain her and arrest her.
What specific law within the INA, or U.S.C. 8 or U.S.C. 18 was the driver in violation of that gave the ICE agents legal authority to detain her?

I'll give you hint: There isn't one.

Again, they had absolutely no legal authority to detain her. The legal powers of ICE are clearly defined. Detaining an American citizen committing a traffic violation isn't within those powers. I get it, you hate that American citizens have rights, and that federal agents have to operate within the law. Might I suggest moving to Venezuela or Russia, where how the government can act towards citizens is more in line with your preferences?

Seriously though, this is why normal and competent administrations of the past have coordinated with local law enforcement when conducting ICE operations. Now, we have recruits where 50% of them fail the written test (that's OPEN BOOK!!!), dropping in like an invading foreign force, violating states' and constitution rights (kind of weird how the so-called "states' rights" crowd is acting). Federal agents get to use the authority granted to them under the law to carry out their mission, and local officers get to use the authority granted them under the law to assist in carrying out that mission. That's how non-idiot administrations have handled it. Obama managed to deport more people than Trump, and never had to shoot any American citizens in the process. Silly woke Marxists, and their belief in competence and American citizens having rights.

I’m always amused at how disingenuous and ignorant MAGA is willing to paint itself as they attempt to agitate people with their dumb non-equivalences.

I love this. I need to get some of these as stickers.

Here is a rather neat fact-check on the attempt to paint the victim of the Minneapolis shooting as a crazed world be murderer of ICE agents:

Trump administration unleashes torrent of untruths after woman shot dead by ICE
Victim-blaming began almost as soon as Renee Nicole Good was killed – we examine the claims and the reality


The Guardian, Friday
The Guardian explored some of the main allegations made by administration figures:

The claim

“ … rioters began blocking ICE officers and one of these violent rioters weaponized her vehicle, attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them – an act of domestic terrorism” – post on X by the Department of Homeland Security.

The reality

There is simply no evidence that Good was “a violent rioter” or “domestic terrorist”. No riot was taking place before her encounter with the ICE agents, and the department could not yet have been certain of her identity at 12.43pm, the time the message was posted. There is no evidence that Good – a poet and mother – was a terrorist.

The claim

“ … the woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting, who then violently, willfully, and viciously ran over the ICE Officer” – post on Truth Social by Donald Trump.

The reality

Video of the incident shows that Good was not “disorderly”, and had reversed her car and allowed at least one ICE vehicle to pass before other agents confronted her. A separate video shows clearly that the officer who fired the fatal shots walked up to the front of Good’s car, which was turning away from him as it began to move forward, and he remained on his feet as the vehicle passed him.

The claim


“She behaved horribly. And then she ran him over. She didn’t try to run him over. She ran him over” – Trump to New York Times reporters on Wednesday night.

“It is hard to believe he is alive, but [he] is now recovering in the hospital” – Trump’s Truth Social post.

The reality

The video of the incident Trump shared online, and then screened for reporters in the Oval Office, which he called proof that Good “ran over” the officer, was footage recorded from a distance which had been slowed down by a rightwing influencer. Slow-motion video inevitably distorts reality. Viewed at normal speed, the same video shows that the officer was so slightly brushed by the slowly moving car that he had no trouble retaining his balance and firing multiple shots at the driver. The same clip also appears to show that the vehicle only accelerated after the driver had been fatally shot. Trump ignored two recordings made by witnesses close to the vehicle, which offer more evidence that the officer was in no danger from the vehicle when he opened fire.

Video of the aftermath of the incident also shows the officer holstering his weapon immediately, and then walking calmly away from Good’s crashed car, with no apparent injuries and showing no sign of distress. Brian O’Hara, the Minneapolis police chief, told CNN, and during a press conference on Wednesday, that when he arrived at the scene he was told “only the woman” was injured.

The claim

“An ICE officer, fearing for his life, the lives of his fellow law enforcement and the safety of the public, fired defensive shots … the ICE officers who were hurt are expected to make full recoveries” – Tricia McLaughlin, deputy homeland security secretary, in a post on X.

The reality

The officer who killed Good was not in the pathway of her car when he began firing, analysis of the video shows. Two other officers were beside it, and no members of the public were seen to be in harm’s way. There is no evidence that any ICE officer was injured.

Political commentator Andrew Egger wrote in column for Bulwark that much of what McLaughlin had to say was “pure invention”.

“I sometimes struggle to grasp the behavior of administration mouthpieces like McLaughlin in moments like this. How do these people live with themselves? How is it possible that no part of them is ashamed to put on these miserable, utterly immoral performances in the national spotlight? Have they no conscience?” he wrote.

“But there’s no question that the performance has the desired effect. You’d think it might backfire, telling such obvious, outrageous, immediately debunkable lies. But McLaughlin and her ilk have learned how to manipulate the social media environment in which these stories filter down to the American people.”

Walz, in his Thursday press briefing, said the full truth of the incident, and about Macklin Good, would emerge in time.

“I will let those that want to push out false narratives to slander, to defame,” he said. “Renee Good, Minnesotans will tell her life story. Minnesotans will be there to defend her honor and and see this as a human being, not a moment in time, or the callous casualness that I’ve watched some people on TV gloss over what they saw.”

OK, we're learning a lot about the woman who was shot by an ICE agent. She was part of a radical progressive group called "Ice Watch" and apparently this group provided her with "training" on how to follow ICE agents, and how to cause as much chaos as possible to interrupt their lawful duties.

Here's what's going to be interesting to find out. Why was her wife filming when the poor woman got shot? Obviously they didn't plan on her getting shot, but did they plan on creating chaos, is that why the wife was filming?

Why did the wife feel like she was at fault for the woman's death? Was it because they both were out on the streets to cause as much chaos as possible?

Is it true that this poor woman had a child enrolled in a charter school that is so progressive, they teach children "social justice education?" If so, it's going to tell us a lot about her radicalized mindset. Apparently the charter school prioritizes social justice, involving kids in political and social activism. They also integrate social justice into every grade level.

If we find out that this woman is a radical progressive, no different than the poor white men that post here, like Can'tpakes, DrCamnPP, Bishop Schmo, then we will know why she thought it was a good idea to drive a weapon/vehicle towards an armed man.

Great video discussing just how woke this woman was. Also discusses the woke progressive school her child goes to.
