    Sniper shoots unlawfully detained people. Homeland Security sells the story as an attack on ICE.

    So basically you can write anything on the bullet to place blame on the side you want blamed and everyone will automatically believe you? – because someone who would shoot people would definitely not lie or try to make it look like a certain “side” did it, right?

    Or maybe no matter what they write or who they shoot, this regime will blame it on “the left”. (edit to add): The FBI could just as easily have scrawled that “anit-ice” on there before taking the picture. I guess messages on bullets is the new trend now.

    “left-wing extremist” who was “politically motivated to go after people who are enforcing our border.”

    If they keep saying it they’ll be right eventually. “SEE?!? We told you so!!”

    Edit: So I guess ICE is just straight up executing people now?

    Fuck this country.

    Looking at history and how unoriginal HF is. My prediction remains:

    Big ass false flag attack is on the horizon.

    Putin flavored.

    Everything the regime has tried to use to incite “civil war” has failed so far.

      Interesting idea, but what could it possibly be? Americans shrug off gun violence like it’s just a part of life.

        Like I said. Putin Flavored.

        The Moscow apartment bombings. Probably in a blue or at least purple state. Lots of victims. Blames antifa.

          It’ll be the new Hitler’s “Reichstagg Fire” moment. His big one-size-fits-all excuse to snap his mass-murder plan into place.

      Yep.

      Alternatively, it could have been just another right-wing fuckhead who wanted to murder some brown people and the administration is making the best use of it they can to make up for dropping the ball so hard on Kirk’s assassination.

        Could be a mix of the two. Could be an ICE officer who was off duty. We don’t even know who they are hiring or who they are redirecting from what agency. Or it could just be someone who wanted to be ICE or were rejected by them.

        Many of the fuckwits that commit mass shootings kill themselves afterwards to avoid consequences. The guy killing himself afterwards is honestly perfectly normal.

    Shooter appears to have been targeting kidnapped immigrants, not ICE. But sure, the violence against ICE agents has to stop. Violence against brown people, however? Totally fine.

      I’m not sure what the shooter’s motivations were, but he appears to have shot the van they were in multiple times and not have had any visual on his targets, meaning he could have been aiming for the ICE. It’s hard to say for sure.

        he appears to have shot the van they were in

        If that’s the case, the ICE agents would be in the front of the van and the detainees would have been in the back. So how do the detainees get shot but the ICE agents are fine if the shooter was targeting agents?

          Again, we don’t know for sure, but it’s not uncommion for the Agents themselves to ride in the back and all jump out on location to perform a surprise raid.

    So supposedly this was targeted at ICE but he missed and hit 3 immigrants by accident. So, again, both sides will claim the other side is responsible.

    The only thing clear is that there’s more violence coming.

    Three people were shot at the Dallas Immigration and Customs Enforcement field office on Wednesday morning, according to acting ICE Director Todd Lyons.

    The shooter is “down” from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound, Lyons said in an interview on CNN.

    That’s the whole article.

      Updated. 2 dead, 1 wounded. All were detainees. Shots were fired blindly at a building and a van. Detainees were in the van.

      The victims were not immediately clear but Lyons said that “all ICE agents and officers at [the] location are accounted for right now.”

      This is also notable!

      Because I assumed the narrative was that the shooter was targeting ICE agents.

    50-80 years from now real truth will be revealed from some 3 letter agency that put Mr Donald in charge by attempt murder and now continue those “murder” actions to steer American citizens and the global politics on this planet. I see a pattern here. Previously same agency was steering global politics toward sexuality now it’s war and murder.

    Thoughts and prayers…

    But still nowhere near as big of a tragedy as when a school gets shot up. And Charlie Kirk said these are the price of freedom

      Gosh I hate paying the price of freedom so much this time. It hurts so much I’m moaning. And using a back massager made by an industrial machinery company to relieve some if the stress. The stress in my back. Which I’m massaging.
