Minneapolis Public Schools has canceled classes and activities following the fatal shooting of a woman by an immigration officer and ensuing protests.
The school district, which has an enrolment of about 29,000 students, said in a statement on Wednesday that there will be no school, sports and activities on Thursday and Friday “due to safety concerns related to today’s incidents around the city.”
The 37-year-old woman, identified as Renee Nicole Good, was fatally shot in a residential neighbourhood south of downtown Minneapolis during the Trump administration’s latest immigration crackdown in a major city.
Her killing after 9:30 a.m. was recorded on video by witnesses.
They need to start deploying police to where ICE is. And detaining them.
The time for half measures is over, arrest every ICE agent and charge them with criminal conspiracy to violate the rights of citizens. Charge everyone as an accessory to murder if they don’t testify against the organization.
Otherwise it’s death from a thousand cuts as trump just continually crosses each new line.
I doubt any state has the balls, so if you can’t trust the feds to protect you, you cant trust state/local cops, why the fuck aren’t you carrying your own gun by now?
I’ve never seen a cop pull shit like this when the protestors have guns. They only make unarmed people panic then escalate to violence, if even a few people in the crowd are visibly armed, suddenly both sides are interested in de-escalation.
Cops stick together.
Some of those that work forces, etc.
I think Minneapolis police should indeed be ordered to do this.
but it’s extremely unlikely that they would. ACAB.
There was a Minnesota Fraternal Order of Police statement of support for the ICE murderer. Pigs protect pigs.
Also this is the same police force that murdered George Floyd. And fuck all has been done about them since, Frey talks big but can’t or won’t accomplish anything.
Deploy police? So they can argue over which unarmed taxpayer they can shoot? Any municipal police that confronts ICE will be killed.
But seriously maybe they’ll take a few with them or even more likely that ICE will just run away in the face of actual resistance.
“911? Yes, there’s a man with a gun outside a school…”
The police are probably better shots. Definitely better at tactics too
Training, go figure
Ehh, I wouldn’t be so sure. I’m pretty sure ICE has a decent bit more training than your average municipal cop. A lot of them are ex military as well, such as Jonathon Ross, hence his itchy trigger finger.
They’re literally recruited from white supremacist groups and handed a gun that they may or may not know how to use already
I, unfortunately, have had the pleasure of knowing a couple of ICE agents before all of this and can tell you that their training, at least historically, was more involved than that of your typical police force. They have dedicated training facilities that all members are sent to for several months.
To be fair though, yeah, I’m sure that’s all gone out the window in their current phase rapid hiring any piece of shit that wants to shoot brown people, so the point is moot anyway… nevermind.
Fair, I’m sure they used to do real training back when we were a real country
