Weapons of war. On peaceful protesters, American citizens.

Some people show up on the streets with jingle dresses, red knitted hats, cell phones with cameras, signs, and loud voices, and sometimes swear words.

Other people show up with tear-gas, guns, and battle tanks.

Well, this isn't good. I guess Canada isn't our ally (why would they supply armored vehicles used against the American people?!?). Canadians call for halt to ICE armored vehicle sale after report by The Independent

No one is an ally when it is a private company and money is involved. France was selling buildings for ICE facilities.

But in general we saw it before. Do you remember the police showing up in Flint on tanks? I still remember the photos.

Note: DFL = Democratic Farm Labor, which is what the Dem party is called in Minnesota.

With federal immigration operations still dominating international headlines, DFL state lawmakers plan to introduce legislation later this month that would make it easier for Minnesota residents to sue the federal government over alleged constitutional violations.

Minnesota lawmakers propose giving residents more power to sue federal agents for constitutional violations

Current federal law allows people to sue state or local governments for constitutional violations, but largely shields federal agents such as ICE.

Ochoa is probably the “real” one. He looks like the construction man in the “Village People”. And the photo walking around is the same.

Guttierrez who is 35 usually was presented as a mugshot of an old guy on the heavy side. Periodically I see a young cutie from the Halloween party and marvel at the transformation.

IRL, he looks like the young cutie + 12 years later and the pig-headed mug shot belongs to the deported criminal who he is not.

I suspect that DHS does not care what happens to their agents and people are angry. I believe that the citizens of Minnesota deserve a fair legal trial. I don’t want anyone to be hurt, especially by some vigilantes.

The names are very common. So no one should doxx them.

I suspect the culprits are safe somewhere. The agent who killed Renee Good was a MN resident, and agents went to his house and cleaned it out. I'm assuming that means he moved away.

I'm assuming these agents who killed Alex Pretti were far away before the names were released.

And I wonder if the admin hoped public heat would be placed on the agents and take scrutiny off themselves.

I don't think any sane and normal Minnesotan wants physical revenge on the agents, but justice through the peaceful legal process. My opinion.

I think they should ask expect demand the federal administration conduct an independent investigation with integrity.

I believe both agents are from Texas and likely back there. DHS and ICE project what they would do onto others. MN wouldn't do anything vengeful or violent because they are peaceful people and simply want fairness and for laws to be followed, but DHS and ICE clearly are violent and vengeful. They can't believe anyone is actually loving and good because they aren't. JMO
