The burden and expectation is that ordinary citizens have always been expected to deescalate encounters with law enforcement. This country descended into a fascist police state long ago by refusing to prosecute law enforcement's use of excessive violence.

The message from the White House this morning is that, once again, it falls on ordinary American citizens to remain calm and professional when dealing with the heavily armed agents of the government because they are very emotional and might fly off into a murderous rage at the slightest insult.

This is exactly what I told someone yesterday.
Even if I spot you the first shot (I shouldn’t, but let’s go with that), shots 2 and 3 were inexcusable and this officer will lose his case if it ever goes to court.

DHS and ICE are losing credibility as their lies and lawlessness are creating chaos and tragedies.
Shame on those using these moments to incite terror.

One of Trump’s ICE agents killed a U.S. citizen in Minneapolis.
We need an immediate investigation into the ICE officer, accountability and justice.
My heart goes out to the family and the people of Minnesota.
ICE is clearly not making us safer. This needs to stop.

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.
