It would be wonderful if this tragedy led to improvements in patient care and safety in Nigeria. Since the author has a voice it might carry more weight.

President Truman and Dwight Eisenhower must be turning over in their graves. NATO was formed to bring together democratic allies to keep the world safe from the threat of aggressor nations, like USSR. Now the US admin is spitting in the face of their allies. What's the purpose of this? Wouldn't...

In my personal opinion, from the viewpoint of someone who worked in the capital markets, I think this is massive debt is one of the reasons that Trump's administration is upset with Jerome Powell (US Central Bank Chairman) and has put him 'under investigation'. Powell has been regularly...

What is the average length of training for ICE agents? Is it as long as city police officers? https://www.npr.org/2026/01/09/nx-s1-5671120/homeland-security-expert-talks-about-ices-truncated-training-after-hiring-blitz...

Officers are trained to kill in all situations??? That's what an officer's training is?? I find that hard to believe. And I hope that all professionally trained LE officers find that hard to believe as well. They are taught to first try to diffuse the situation, aren't they? They aren't taught...

I totally agree. But it seems that ICE agents aren't trained that way. They have signing bonuses, very short training periods, and 'catch goals'. The focus isn't on the well-being of the community. IMO. Meanwhile, local PD have much, much more extensive training and they are more focused on...

I beg to differ. ICE officials ask her to move her vehicle. another gets out of his vehicle, grabbing her car door, demanding she get out, so she decides to comply with the order to move on. She did NOT deserved to be KILLED for this. It was a minor protest that didn't take much to convince her...

Thank you for stating the obvious. The threat was the shooter. MOO.

How was the scene not secure? Were there other 'shooters' running about? Oh, yeah, there weren't ANY shooters and none of the protesters seemed physically aggressive. People weren't bearing weapons; they weren't throwing things. If this is how ICE (who don't wear any distinguishing badges and...

"Letting her leave was not a safe option." I've watched several videos frame by frame as well. Actually, if they let her leave it would have been the safest option. No one would have been hurt or killed. IMO. The interaction between ICE and the victim was very, very short, and then she decided...

Didn't that poster say "JMO"? It's just their opinion. They may or may not be correct but no link should be expected.

Actually, if you listen to the various videos, some ICE were asking her to move out of the way, while another guy was pulling on her door yelling at her to get out. They were uncoordinated and the victim was doomed no matter what she did. Sadly. I guess you're not allowed to protest in the USA...

Trump lies yet again. We can see with our own eyes. No one was hurt other than the woman that they murdered. She was trying to move her vehicle as requested (wheels turned away from the agent), yet he stepped in and shot her. Why? She wasn't a risk and she wasn't under arrest. There isn't...

Oh, and the US Admin recently cancelled funding to US Aid, so I don't believe it's at all about helping humanity.

You and I definitely differ in opinion. Why isn't the US going into Myanmar? Why isn't the US going into Nigeria? Why isn't the US going into North Korea? They didn't attack Venezuela for humanitarian reasons. And they never said they did. They said they did it for 'drug reasons'...
