    Warning: violence

    • you cannot see any blood, or the driver
    • you can hear the gunshots, and in the second video, can see the ICE agent firing his sidearm into the car
    • ICE’s description of the incident is very clearly an outright, bald-faced lie

    Video 1: https://www.threads.com/@amay.a100/post/DTOBTk_DbL4

    Video 2: https://www.threads.com/@megtheminipony/post/DTOGTlYiXlu

    Fwiw I don’t use Threads at all personally, but that’s where the content lives

    If this (and other similar incidents) aren’t examples of a modern Kent State moment, I don’t know what the fuck is.

      The vehicle doesn’t accelerate until she’s already been killed. The vehicle was uncontrolled because ICE murdered its operator and they are trying to spin it like this dead woman was trying to run them down.

      Fuck these monsters. The state needs to prosecute every federal agent at the scene for murder and public endangerment.

      Edit: I just saw the victims wife was in the car with her. Now I’m angry and crying.

        You can always rely on this regime to be as ghoulish as possible in their approach to any given situation and this situation is no exception.

        Imagine a human being still connected to any ethical framework trying to spin the post-mortem acceleration of the innocent women they murdered as an attack on them.

        You can’t do it. You have to surrender your humanity to be capable of this level of callous evil.

          No, we can expect that from the conservatives harassing her widow over the next few days though.
