son says

There is video of them punching him multiple times in the head after taking him down to the ground. Acting like we only have the son's word for the fact that this was a violent arrest injuries is crazy journalistic cowardice.

Where are the lawsuits over all this kind of thing? Is this America or not?

You need money for lawsuits, and Democrats are too busy funding septuagenarians running for office to pay for this shit

Don't lawyers advertise "We don't get paid unless you do"? You'd think they'd jump at open and shut cases like these.

That's only for personal injury cases, where they mainly go after insurance companies. They don't go after cops (or even "cops" like these ICE fellas) that have qualified immunity and government resources backing them up. This case isn't as open-and-shut as it should be.

You don't even know who to sue thanks to the masks, they will charge him with assault afterwards and Tricia McLaughlin will lie again about as soon as she opens her mouth

Seems to me you've got a name right there.

Was America…but it seems it isn’t what it said it was.

“Resisting arrest places those being arrested, the agents, and the community at risk.”

But masked men who don’t identify themselves properly aren’t arresting you, they’re kidnapping you until they prove otherwise.

What?

... bot screwing up its post and responding to the wrong place? No idea, doesn't seem to be responding to either the article or any comment in here. There is a slim chance it's some weird artifact of the federation process.

Oh, sorry. Voyager had saved a reply I was working on, but I didn't realize it responded to the wrong article.
