I am angry tonight. Because tonight ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car. ICE makes this city less safe. We want them out. Now.

Except for the tiny little problem that the large majority of the cops are on the side of the fucking Nazi murderers. And that's true ALL ACROSS this sewer of a country. Unless we can fix policing (which yeah, will mean basically wiping them out and starting from scratch), this country is *doomed.*

And, should these law enforcement personnel all lose their jobs en masse...they are still gun owners with a grievance. I agree with the general concept here, but would suggest that an armed, independent collection of corruptable, untethered fascist malcontents would be equally dangerous to society.

Spare us the childish tantrum. Mohran knows NYC restrictions on cooperation with immigration authorities force ICE officers to conduct arrests in potentially dangerous circumstances. After patching up the criminal, send him back to DR and let’s go catch some more.

The movie Onslaught is an interesting grindhouse parable I think aimed at DHS and ICE, metaphorically. It ends with the Battle Hymn of the Republic playing while the protagonist says it’s time for them to move. Pretty clear reference to getting out of Germany 1935 before it got worse IMO.

NYPD didn’t feel like they were keeping the peace. The commissioner should also reconsider how she shared the victim’s record, bc that sounded like some mild justification for what happened to him and that child today.

I get that you can’t tell them how to do they’re job, but she seemed disconnected and NYPD won’t even try to jail and agent, even if it’s a temporary hold, for clear and evident crimes. Instead, they escort them to safety & fight people demanding answers. The people feel along w/ NYPD agains them

Ok.. nothing you said here makes any sense. National Guard cannot be used as law enforcement against federal forces, for the simple fact federal law is supreme, federal LEO have local immunity and the National Guard can be federalized by the Commander in Chief at any time.

Also, "convict them for war crimes against immigrants"? So, you are implying illegal immigrants are an invading military force? Because war crimes only exist in the context of a.. war? I mean, that's a helluva way to frame it. And who would prosecute these supposed war crime violations? The UN? xD

Swordfish
@tipofthesword.bsky.social

The best way for NYPD to help is to stick with rendering aid to everyone but ICE agents. If they see an agent having a hard time, just look away or leave the scene and let the new yorkers that vastly outnumber the agents take care of the pests.

Geoff Johnson
@geoffthejohnson.bsky.social

NYPD seemed to directly facilitate ICE leaving the hospital. That is completely unsurprising but also completely unacceptable. Mamdani definitely wants ICE out of NYC, but that seems unlikely when the NYPD army is controlling protesters for the feds. It’s not “derailing” anything to say this!

Maybe condemning them just as much for terrorizing the protestors and actively helping ICE. I understand historically the NYC mayor is typically afraid of their own police force but this is something in his control on some level. Even lip service would be better

ECP
@ecppdx.bsky.social

I get it and I do wish he were more condemning of them, but I also think he's trying not to piss off the police because they are basically a military occupation of his city and they can disappear/murder anyone they want and almost literally no one can stop them.

just gonna say what everyone's about to post, but you'll have to sincerely look into whether tisch should stay as commissioner, especially as NYPD throughout the night coordinated with ICE after the shooting occurred (not during/before). this is your opportunity, do not waste it.

PlayfulPiano (he/him)
@playfulpiano.bsky.social

also while you might have had a long term strategy for later in this term or the next, things have changed, and it will now take the political courage to make the case to nyc residents on why tisch has to go now. or if she does stay, there has to be drastic, visible changes to the NYPD.

PlayfulPiano (he/him)
@playfulpiano.bsky.social

separately if the fears are about police supporting ice or not responding to mayoral command, pew research did just have a poll where only 2/3rds of republicans + leaners support trump, which is just abysmal. this is genuinely your best opportunity here, otherwise it could become a inflection point.

Send SWAT after them. Force them to ID themselves and if they don't arrest them. No civilized country would EVER tolerate masked men patrolling its streets would guns and no ID rounding up and gunning people down in the streets. Treat them as what they are: hostile invaders.

IDs, no verbal vouching from a Gruppenführer. ID check that verifies they are a citizen. And all checks from a secure location, not in the field, because fuck tying up patrol apparatus for these terrorists. Blotter to state their full name and occupation.

Undercaffeinated Eel
@caffeinatedeel.bsky.social

Nah, the field round-ups are the POINT: make them goddamned know the consequences for their actions. Take their IDs, disappear them into the system for a while, them dump them at a gas station with no phone, wallet, anything. Let them fucking know they're not wanted and make sure its filmed.

As usual with Trump, an accusation of anyone else is effectively a confession of his own actual or intended crime – in this case, the very "American carnage" he imputed to the Obama administration in his 2017 inaugural blather.

Kimi Wei@kimiwei.bsky.social

Well, this is only PART of the reason ICE is murdering folks. Other reasons: 1/ To see how much murder and mayhem they can cause without provoking meaningful pushback. 2/ To normalize government violence. 3/ In preparation for violently blocking ppl from voting in elections.

gimmesumrealheroes.bsky.social
@gimmesumrealheroes.bsky.social

Mr. Mayor, I genuinely love what your administration has done so far for NYC. But this, ICE, is something you can directly handle by mobilizing your city's police force to rid your streets of those masked goons and calling your governor for national guard support. Not doing so is complicity.

T Antony 🏳‍🌈
@t-antony.bsky.social

Start prosecuting ICE agents; this ends. Every state AG should have been prosecuting ICE agents in early 2025, all 50 AGs should be prosecuted for ignoring their oaths to the people and the Constitution. The feds can do nothing about a state prosecution.

smpl62.bsky.social
@smpl62.bsky.social

They are trying but the government refuses to hand over evidence and the names of the ICE agents. I think only one has been able to be charged. His charges were second degree assault and falsely reporting a crime by a local county attorney in Minneapolis.

T Antony 🏳‍🌈
@t-antony.bsky.social

That is a fucking cop-out by gutless wonder AGs. The Nicole Good and Alex Pretti shootings, they had videos and citizen witnesses. AGs prosecute crimes every day without video and dozens of witnesses. Good was unarmed, Pretti was no threat in any way.

smpl62.bsky.social
@smpl62.bsky.social

I don’t disagree that to us normal people what we witnessed should be proof enough of murder. But a lot goes into investigations in order to get a conviction. The last I read, Hennepin Co. just received a trove of evidence from the Good murder, including her vehicle, body cam footage etc in 7/26.

One major thing Trump’s regime and its supporters may seek is to use ICE to instigate civil unrest before the midterms. They want the optics of chaos and minorities tearing up the streets so they can cast themselves as the “good white law-and-order” side. Be wary and don't get used by the regime.
