The only people who are saying we're terrorists are the actual terrorists that want to genocide the world, their words mean nothing to me.

If you're not a dyed in the wool MAGAt, if you have a functioning pre-frontal cortex, and empathy, you already are a domestic terrorist.

It's already clear that to this DOJ, this FBI, everyone who is not a Trump enthusiast IS a domestic terrorist. Those who are beating people up in the street, shooting them, tasering them, lying about them...are heroes deserving praise. To this Administration. Not to We, the People.

I grew up with “domestic terrorism”; the IRA & UDA.

First person I saw killed in front of my face-at the age of 14-was due to sectarian violence.

The heads of Govt depts & even POTUS declaring a Honda driving mom a “domestic terrorist” is 1984 level fuckwittery.

USA is a fascist state.

The most enlightening and disappointing thing to come out of this ICE shooting is that the right legitimately does not give a fuck about human life if it harms their political narrative.

Watching people malign a 37 year old mother for being murdered by her country is insane.

I've seen people say that the officer who murdered Nicole Good should be charged with murder, and to that I add that every officer who kept medics from arriving, who barred doctors from helping should also be charged under conspiracy doctrine.

One of the less obvious, but still extremely dangerous things that the Trump regime is doing, is casting doubt upon the legitimately of government agencies for people of all political leanings. Now *nobody* trusts anything

After viewing the clip of the event which took place in Minneapolis, Minnesota- he then proceeds to lie about EVERYTHING in it, aside from the fact that it is, indeed, "a horrible thing to watch."

I appreciate the impulse to provide analysis of the evidence, but you really shouldn't have to take Noem and Dear Leader's monstrous bullshit seriously enough to warrant the effort. They are filthy, lying fascists, anything and everything they say is utterly inexcusable.

leaning into the car. That's not what someone does when their life is threatened by a vehicle.

Clear video of the SHOOTER/MURDERER walking up to the crashed car with the victim that he shot in it, fail to render aid and walk back to his vehicle signalling to his posse to wrap it up.

Then drives away from a crime scene, taking the murder weapon with him.

NO injuries to him

And this photo, a frame from another angle when the first shot was fired (see smoke) shows both his legs clearly to the left of the vehicle. This is the point in the first animated set of frames where he had both his legs stepped back and was leaning on the car (with one hand).

And when the car moves forward, his body is next to it not in front of it. i.e. the car obstructs the view of the shooter. This is not being hit. He was in contact with the car because he leaned against it with his hand. He safely moved his legs and body out of the way.

These (non-consecutive) frames grabbed from an ABC video shows the shooter approach the car, then back his legs up and lean on the fender as the car begins to move forward. In other words, he was not hit, he moved his legs back out of the way in response to the car changing direction.
