The driver was murdered. Trying to escape an armed gang threatening violence and was murdered. I feel for her family and friends.

She wasn't even trying to escape, she was trying to turn around because they were screaming at her to turn around, so she did that and the officer went out of his way to shoot her in the face five times.

Masked man tries to enter woman's vehicle; she drives away, other masked man not in any danger of the departing vehicle shoots the driver. No officers ever present in front of the vehicle, yet they claim risk to officers. 

Surprise, you live in a police state.

He didn’t need to have his gun drawn and you’re not going to convince me he didn’t already have it out with how fast he started shooting. None of the other “officers” felt they needed to have their weapons out.

Also when she starts to accelerate you can see the shooter’s feet between the legs of the one grabbing the door, not in front of the car. He’s in front of the car for maybe half a second when she starts to move forward, starts shooting, then continues to shoot after he’s clear.

At best he’s getting a broken foot or leg if he actually got run over at that speed from that angle.

There's a bunch of videos from different angles but:

He wasn't just standing in front of her.

He was walking past the front of the car, about when the guy touches the door handle he stops walking just barely still in front of her.

With everything going on the driver likely never even saw him.

The gun was drawn when the car barely moves forward a few inches, then he begins to shoot almost immediately as soon as it moves again.he could have taken a single step to his right and let the vehicle drive by. Instead he played matador and shot multiple times while doing so. Him firing the gun only made it more likely he'd be injured.

Yeah I don’t think she saw him at all, probably afraid of the dude trying to rip open her door.

You’ll note I say he’s in front of the car for about half a second when she starts to move forward. You can see this in another video from the front angle where he rolls off the front left of the vehicle then starts shooting. He continues to fire as she goes past him and he’s clear of the car.

The reality is that the shooter is a trigger happy dumbass approaching a car in drive from the front or manipulated the situation so he could shoot her and claim he felt he was in danger at worst.

But this is America, you can kill a black person over stealing a bag of skittles if they make you scared.

We literally made being a scared pussy legal with Zimmerman.

But two of the three shots are from the side when the car has already passed.

Cops is not just a synonym for "police".

A "copper" is anyone who seizes something.

People used it for police because they seized goods and people.

They were literally copping people, so people called them cops.

So ice are 100% "cops" even if you never knew what a cop was.

The lady does not floor it you imbecile, she's fucking dead and her foot crushes the gas pedal, as what happens when someone's brain is destroyed. Unless you live here, shut the fuck up.

He didn't got out of the way before because he was busy fucking shooting the woman in the face.

US immigration officer fatally shoots woman in Minneapolis https://share.google/Rec8ewVBhqKXvIrwG

Watch the video, as she was backing up to move, an agent jumped in front of the vehicle gun drawn. Another agent, who killed her, already had his gun drawn. Either way they were going to kill her.

And you assholes still won't admit you live in a police state. Being a white male won't save you.

Yo fuck ice and we do live in a police state. I'm just pointing out basic facts - when she shifts to forward drive the ice agent was in front of her. She swerved to the right as he jumped to the left and she still hit him.

As ugly as watching the death of an innocent person is, I think honestly the comments on that video under that link are more fucking heinous. So many people just gaslighting, pretending the officer was in danger, like we can't clearly see that's bullshit. A giant "I STAND WITH ICE" picture. People saying she deserves to die for not getting out of the car when ordered. Fuck it man. I know it's not everyone or anything, but Jesus. America is so fucking lost right now.

He shot her and then fled the scene, what a fucking coward. Hope he gets a bullet to the face.

So are we crowdfunding bounties on these degenerates' heads or are we still in the "we can vote our way out of this" phase?

Not sure. Maybe just personal pledges that go into a community fund?

2

The American people get the payment in the form of services and relief paid out of the community fund. I can't think of a way to keep the identity of the patriots icing ICE safe.

1

No, this is America, everyone has guns, the Second Amendment, etc., for the right to bear arms against an oppressive government....or was it really all about being scared of black people?

You can see it on BBC.

I guess Bluesky is officially enshittified in less than 3 years. No surprise.

I'm not in love with Bluesky, but they're not censoring the video. I was able to watch it on the link above, I just had to click passed a graphic warning content.

He followed her and kept shooting.

A small minded man on a power trip who never should have been there in the first place.

I also can't see it. Is says moderation labeled it as graphic, but there is no video option. Must you have an account?

I just made one to find out and it's still the same. Guess it got removed.

2

No, I'm logged in and don't see any video, as well. Either I just don't know how to navigate Bluesky, or it was removed.

I always have issues opening these links up. Currently have Verizon and use multiple browsers including the Boost app.

Anyone else have this issue?

Just u-turning on a slow road, some unidentified people in black masks pop out of a car with guns drawn and tell me to get out of the car, I’m driving the fuck off as well. Murdered for no reason whatsoever by psychopaths.

Just curious, how do you get a video out of this? I go to the link and all I get is a single static image in a follow-up comment. Does the moderation warning mean that they actually took down the video? Is that how Blue sky works?

2

I've added a mirror to my comment, seems like the status of the video in my original link was changed.

1

This doesn’t seem to work for me. Maybe because I don’t have a blue sky account? I don’t see any video

"You did a murder ... for what?!" Shit makes me tear up.

Everyone that is comfortable with it should. But some training to go with it is just as important, if not more.

19

why just one? buy two. don't forget ammo.

I recommend 9mm. common round, can be bought anywhere.

It's a bit expensive, but a Glock 19 is a good first handgun.

stay away from Sig, especially the p320. it's standard issue for police but has a record of just "going off" while holstered.

don't forget to get a cleaning kit and holster. also helps to take safety training and at least 12 hours at a shooting range.

ranges may require you to buy their ammo since there's specific range ammo as well as some cheaper ammo you buy online can be dangerous.

good luck.

Dude. You shoot someone and after you’re dead, Trump declares marshal law because you gave him the excuse he is looking for.

"It's weird of you to use your eyeballs to see a publicly visible comment in your inbox I made accusing you of some random shit while I was having a stroke. I'm gonna blame you for a fight I started"

Actual dumbfuck behavior. If you come at me with baseless accusations because you're mad at me for calling out fascists defending murder, I will out and shame you. Deal with it.

Buddy it wasnt meant for you which is why I deleted it. We're on the same side, fuck ICE fuck the police death to Amerikkka. Stop harrassing me

If you don't think it's time for an armed populace already, you need to at least consider how available firearms will be once things are bad enough it crosses your personal line.

It seems naive to expect things to just magically start de-escalating.

And when a crowd has rifles, cowards are slow to shoot at the crowd. Because regardless of what's legal, there's an immediate and likely response to shooting at an armed group.

This is fucking bullshit! There needs to be retribution for this heinous act. She was clearly steering away from that thug.
