> Of course, ICE doesn’t just end up targeting, surveilling, harassing, assaulting, detaining, and torturing people who are undocumented immigrants.

Unfortunate timing of this article going live... Some of that seems quaint now.

For those lacking context, ICE shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis today. An agent standing beside a car shot a driver through a car window, killing her and causing the car to lose control and crash into other parked cars.

Allegedly, the agent shot in self defense, but the shot was taken after the car started moving away from the agent.

The woman was identified as a 37 year old US citizen. She was not part of any ICE protest groups.

On the contrary — the timing is perfect. Yesterday, that statement could've been described as hyperbole or a far-fetched hypothetical. Today, it's a different story.

Right, have to add strait up shooting US citizens to the list :/

What witnesses are desribing in Minniapolis is a public exicution, by ordering a woman to drive away, but there was no room to turn around, and he ran up to the car and shot her 3 times in the face as she was trying to manouver and follow orders. The authorities are trying to call him a hero. On topic, for the life of me I realy cant imagine ICE possesing the capability for surveillance no matter what they buy, and it is clear that government and media company are providing direction ,or sometimes specific actions, other than just go fuck some people up in this area code.

There's nothing wrong with that if it's justified.

It was not.
