AOC: "An ICE officer had violently pushed a woman to the ground and he had come over to help get her up and that is what precipitated this incident that very quickly led to an execution in the streets. What we are seeing here is a momentous pivotal moment for the United States."

Audio from both is included
They are both slowed down to ~.5x, zoomed in, and have their colors enhanced

He’s exactly right and the fact you can use ‘Tiananmen Square’ without hyperbole as a point of comparison to event that happened on in an American street is so sober
The pigeon toes. The earnest crossing guard hand. The way his other arm, holding the camera, is tucked into his side. The way he stands before the threat, looking over his shoulder at the wellbeing of another. The brown, the beige, the hat. One humble soul. Here is another Tiananmen Square.
We’re supposed to believe this is a domestic terrorist attacking ICE with a gun

Any one of these stories in the US would a major scandal in normal times with a functioning legacy media. But this is just one day in one city. The cruelty is the point. Overwhelming people with ethics, morals, and empathy is the point, but it can’t work - don’t let the bastards grind you down.

The rank fucking murder of it. From the left to the right. Melt the fucking guns and give those that carry them nothing but sack cloth they may wear into desert or cold, doesn't matter which or where, there to ponder the geometry of their stupid little trigger fingers, the sins they cannot undo.
I've been waiting for this.
Independent autopsy of Renee Good is in. It's strong evidence against Agent Ross, given what it means about the second or third shot through the left-side window.
It's the second and third shots that make the easiest criminal case of a willful killing.
