Everyone should dispute ANY law enforcement account of an incident (murder) because they lie a lot if not all the time.

Burn ICE to the fucking ground.

When they promise to do harm, they generally tell the truth.

And whatever they say the victim did is often what THEY did.

Or they say they don't know anything about that.

  1. Stand in front of car

  2. Shoot driver when they try to drive away

  3. “Violent extremist attempts to murder federal agent!”

Rinse to establish fascist government. Repeat until media can no longer refute lies.

Step 0 is to hire the dumbest motherfuckers alive who couldn't even make the cut for regular law enforcement, and appear unable to grasp how one would move out of the way of a vehicle.
