Gonna enjoy a Big Mac that day in solidarity

Oof!

I’m no political genius, and am admittedly slightly drunk right now, but doesn’t hurting as many people as possible on the way out significantly increase the likelihood of angry people coming after you, and the truckloads of money you just stole, once you are out?

The plan doesn’t seem great.

Meanwhile, the church that 3/4 of the Declaration of Independence’s signers were members of has this to say:

I think they are stupid and lazy and that they think the State’s monopoly on violence is inherently absolute and therefore an “I win” button that they control. As Brett has written, they don’t seem to understand that once the norms are gone they won’t be protected by them either.

Good news! Your doc strings can now be annotated with ASCII art prepubescent boobs in Confederate flag bikinis!

I do not doubt that for a second.

He’s from Minnesota. I’m surprised he isn’t wearing shorts.

This new video 100% reinforces your point. I watched it and am like “Clearly this wasn’t an intentional ramming.” Then I read the comments on the original X post and their take is completely opposite. I second guessed myself and had to watch it several more times but still can’t see a ramming.

I’m not happy about this path either, but it’s really hard for me to see any off-ramps as long as DHS is more interested in antagonization than deescalation.

Maybe I need to go watch Gandhi tonight.

I count maybe half a dozen ICE guys. One of them draws his sidearm and shoots another person, or the wrong person watches their friend get a pepper ball to the face, and half of these agents don’t leave this street under their own power.

Yeah, and I think that decision point is probably crossed in a fraction of a second.

It’s not clear to me how soon after the Good shooting this video was recorded, but it can’t be more than a few hours and the locals clearly haven’t been intimidated. They’re just more pissed off.

I legit fucking love the people of MSP.

Also ICE doesn’t have enough goons.

Protesters making as much noise as possible in front of the Hilton Canopy where ICE agents are staying in Minneapolis.
