And people who ARE doing it the right way are being detained when they show up for immigration hearings at courthouses. They are legally waiting for their green cards or asylum requests to go through the system, and are legally allowed to wait IN COUNTRY while this process occurs, as long as they show up to their hearings. But they are being detained and deported when they show up to their meetings. If they DON'T show up to their meetings, they are deportable, and somehow in this twisted world, they are deportable when they DO show up for their meetings. So saying they need to do it "the right way" and ending the conversation does not do justice to the reality of this year.

Sources:
That was the argument at first, wasn't it - "we're not against immigration, just do it the right way".

Yes, how many times now have we seen ICE waiting outside hearing rooms for the immigrants who are doing it the "right way" to walk out?

This isn't about criminals or legal vs illegal - it's about immigrants.

Couple of reasons off the top of my head would be that putting your car in a position to block the road is a safety hazard for everyone, ICE and other motorists.

Second as I said before I don't think any Law Enforcement will just drive by a car that is sideways in the street and keep on truckin'. Of course under any circumstances they will stop and see if the person needs assistance or why their car is positioned in that manner in the street.

In this case it was obvious they didn't need any assistance and were simply trying to block the road to impede their operation.
If you watch the tapes, the road was not blocked - cars were going by.

ICE stopped to intimidate and was very agressive ( you will see it in the tapes)
There was no situation, there were no illegal immigrants, she did not try to run the shooter over.
It's all in the tapes

I understand they want to make it illegal for citizens to tape ICE.
Say what ?
I guess that way when this gov't decides to set a narrative that is fraudulent, its easier since ther is no evidence to contradict them.

It truly is eye opening

100%

The vast majority of undocumented people detained by ICE have no criminal record.

New Data: 73% of ICE Detainees Have No Criminal Record

Immigrants with no criminal record now largest group in Ice detention

Less than 10% of immigrants taken into ICE custody since October had serious criminal convictions, internal data shows

this o
Car is weapon.
The officer purposely put himself in front of her car. And he was not center front, but off to the driver side headlight front. He hopped out of the way easily as he was popping off the first shot.
Gun in one hand - phone in the other.
He was the only officer to pull his gun at all the whole time. Seemed like at least ten officer's mulling around - he was the only one to unholster his gun.

The first shot went thru the drivers side of the windshield just to the left of the driver. It probablly missed imo.
He then fired two more shots thru the driver side window - while in no danger standing on the driver's side of the car. So even if you think the car was weaponized, he shot TWO more times - likely the shots that killed her when he was totally safe.

Hard to dispute facts

All this is right there on tape -

100% accurate. I hope his conscience is eating him up. He knows in his heart he has made the worst decision of his life. No matter how anyone else tries to spin it, he knows. Video does not lie. Our government has been operating like a terrorist operation, and it's out of control. Instead of watching the piggybank closer, they are busy rousting and harassing the populace like wolves after sheep. We already see that they are standing behind their man, and demonizing the victim. Just nauseating. MOO.

This is not the same country I was raised in. I have found myself wondering what fresh misery the administration will visit on us next. I am learning what it's like to fear my government. It's a horrible feeling.
I assure you, HE HAS NO CONSCIENCE. Nothing is eating him up. Listen to what his father said. He's such a kind and wonderful person. He wouldn't harm a fly without justification. Ashli Babbit's mom said the same. If Ashli were alive, she would also say she was doing nothing wrong. Don't kid yourself that anything is going through his mind beyond he did what was called for.

And I am done with this country. I want and hope to leave, once my mother passes. I cannot abide the half of the population who holds beliefs I think are completely corrupt and immoral. It was not how I was brought up. I wake up every single day EMBARRASSED that I am an American. I see no way forward for this country, and hope to God I am not here when things completely fall apart, although I fear I am already too late.

She was instructed to get out of the car! When you back up and hit an officer while not following direct orders from an officer bad things happen!
He was NEVER hit
Please watch the tape
Maybe screenshot the moment of impact from the tape, if you actually believe he was hit.
I have not seen any credible sources saying he was hit

I’m actively looking for ways to get out. My mother is British so I’m trying to find a way to get joint citizenship and get me and my family to Scotland or Wales. My family from around the globe regularly ask me what the hell is wrong with America.

How can he see that she is a US citizen? Because she is white and speaking English with no accent? That really doesn't mean much. Skin color, language spoken or accent have nothing to do with legal citizenship. But then it didn't seem like anyone was disputing her citizenship. She was blocking the road, obstructing a law enforcement operation. That's why they approached and instructed her to exit her vehicle.
Well said.

Of course she didn't deserve to be shot. I think it was an overreaction from the ICE agents and I'm sure if this was a regular traffic stop that didn't involve ICE this would be a much more cut and dry issue.

The question i will always have is why put yourself in the middle of a situation like that. Protest from a distance. Observe from a distance.

I don't know if people think that by getting in the agent's faces filming, heckling them and blocking roads is going to make them cease operations, but if so that is delusional. These are law enforcement actions that have been sanctioned by the US Government to occur. Nobody is going to stop what is happening by being an agitator.
👍

Oh I'm sorry. I thought based on the fact their car is perpendicular to the lane of travel and other vehicles are having to drive in the wrong lane
Isn't that a one way street?
 
  • #2,076
To add to this… the whistles and horns are sort of like an alert system. Communities around the country have been using them for weeks to alert people when ICE shows up so vulnerable residents know agents are in the area and can take cover or be aware of what’s happening.

Because it raises questions as to how Officer Ross sees himself. Does he see himself as a politically neutral law enforcement officer, or does he see himself as one of Mr Trump's stormtroopers?

Y'all are saying when it suits it that she told to exit her vehicle and when it suits it that she was told to leave. Both things are true.
And he could have asked for her identification. He already took a video of her license plate.

I, respectfully, disagree. His ONLY job is immigration enforcement. In this particular case, that is not what he was doing. IMHO.
