    Without further evidence there’s no reason ever to believe ICE’s account of how it went down.

        This was a murder, you should never believe what the killer says.

    They’re all humans being shot, arrested, and denied their right to habeas corpus. Even if he were a bad person, he still deserves respect and rights.

    I’m going to assume the piggies didn’t identify themselves before trying to kidnap this guy, since that’s their MO.

    Also:

    With the agents fearing Parias could hit them with his Camry or dislodge it from between their vehicles, one opened fire, prosecutors said. Parias was struck in the elbow, and a deputy marshal was hit in the hand, according to prosecutors.

    Fuckin’ idiot shot another cop. These morons shouldn’t have guns. And nice passive voice in the article there, too.

      You misunderstand why these idiots have guns. They want another Boston massacre moment. They want to be able to say the rabble mob assaulted them and they had no choice but to defend themselves. A massacre might be enough to make the average citizen begin to actively fight back, which then gives them justification for U.S. Civil War 2.

        And if that justification never comes, they will have won the civil war.

        Oh I understand why they have guns, which is a big part of why I said they shouldn’t have them.

        Agreed though that they’re looking to escalate as hard as possible. That’s what police riots are all about.
