I understand why this killing resonates, but...

she is not the first innocent person Ice has killed.

And also the 32 people who have died in Ice custody.

We are losing this country to fascism.

2. Recruiting

The administration has intentionally recruited anybody willing to be an extension of their reign of terror. I'm thinking ex - proud boys, pardoned Jan 6'ers, and any low IQ racist assholes that would apply to partake in this atrocity. Give them a gun and a badge and immunity from prosecution very little trying and turn them loose on the brown people and anyone else they feel is in the way of their aggression.

But I didn't for some reason. I was going to attach link this guardian article that echoes what you said.

7. There will be more as JD wants ice to go door to door

It’s so much harder to lie now that everyone is taking videos. Does Trump not realize that??? Reality has never mattered to him. We expect him to blatantly lie but now JD is topping him in the lies.


“After ICE shot a mom three times in the face, JD Vance says ICE operations are going to ramp up and agents are going to start going door to door.”

8. There is always a 'moment in time'. And Ms. 'Good" (you couldn't make this up) was that moment.

12. I understand and I agree.

This one has so much video, however, that the act of murder cannot be denied.

I hope none of us wish to diminish the other lives lost. I don't think we do.

Dying in custody is one thing.
Being shot execution style is TOTALLY DIFFERENT
