Using "undercover" as if he's concealing his employer in order to take on the mob rather than attendants at a carwash.

Anyone pissed that for once the cop doesn’t shoot first?

Maybe the I.C.E agent was white. hard to tell from the photo

I seriously doubt they even hire people who aren't white

They do. For now.

Laws don't apply to MAGAs.

Local police need to start arresting ice

Unlikely to happen, because it means they'd be vulnerable to accountability too.

I have a feeling they're in bed together.
And those uneducated highschool dropout bloodthirsty ICE agents seem to have been granted complete lawless freedom to run amok fucking up everyone everywhere they go.

I can think of at least 5 road rage incidents within a few miles of my house over the last decade, in which people were murdered by a road rager with a gun. Some of them have never been caught, and never will be.
If I'm a cop, and I see a guy exit his vehicle and point his gun at the driver in the car behind him, I'm going to shoot that guy immediately.
Even if I'm not a cop, my state has very strong Stand Your Ground Laws, and if a citizen were to kill a road rager who was pointing a gun at another driver, they'd certainly get away with it.
The dead guy being an ICE agent might complicate it a bit, but it shouldn't.

Yea but the guy pointing the gun was white. If it was an unarmed black or brown guy. He would have been shot before he got out of the car.

Fascists think they're immune to being humiliated, beaten down or suffering. He's going to learn the hard way that he's only human.

Oh? Nothing's happened to them so far...
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today · 5 pts · 289d
So far...

How much farther? They've gone about as far as they can go without implementing gas chambers and still people are fretting over anything violent happening to them.
GaryGhost@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 277d
Well I listen to my governor pritzker and I can't help anyone if I'm in prison. He doesn't want any violent reaction to ice because it would be used as an excuse to bring in military force. It can go farther.

For fucks sake, actual brownshirts...

And she'd have been well within her rights to shoot him first.
AbidanYre@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 289d
Or run his ass over.
sem@lemmy.ml · 20 pts · 289d
If the ICE agent would be not white, I'm sure cop would just shot him without questions.
AA5B@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 288d
The guy should have been arrested anyway. Even the supposed infraction, “she was following me!”, is not something you should be pulling a gun for

As opposed to the 'official uniform' all the others are wearing?

Oh my god, I'm over here incredibly blue-balled for blue-on-(sort of)blue violence.
HubertManne@piefed.social · 5 pts · 289d
surprised it took so long for something like this to happen.
Quexotic@infosec.pub · 7 pts · 289d
I would be really shocked if it hasn't already happened and we just haven't heard about it yet.

“Yes.”

They posted the wrong video.
