"...different from normal police brutality.." Wtf about police brutality is "normal?" Black people are targeted by police daily. There have been over 500 police involved murders of Black people in 2006. ICE & police are from the same system. To minimize either situation is an injustice in itself.

The fact that there is normal police brutality should be unnerving. This recent rash of racial profiling, apprehension, detainment and lack of due process seems to be sanctioned from the top.

THIS IS MURDER BY REPUBLICAN! BOYCOTT THE TRUMP PIG. BOYCOTT RED STATES AND REPUBLICANS. IT IS TIME TO ADMIT THAT THE FUCKING REPUBLICANS ARE THE REAL PROBLEM. THEY COULD END THESE MURDERS.

How do you think Hitler began his reign of terror against the Jewish people? He targeted them over and over again with hate speeches. Trump is doing the same thing towards America's immigrants and people of color.

ICE could go out dressed in a typical law enforcement uniform, no vest, no 10 magazines of ammo, no masks, and present people with papers to take them into custody. This is standing intimidation to dehumanize a large group of people.

In the 1930s, the NAACP hung the “A man was lynched yesterday” flag outside its NYC offices to alert the public of these heinous crimes. Their landlord eventually made the NAACP stop this practice. I doubt a flag would make many waves in today’s world. But we need more anger over these ICE murders

What should keep people up at night is that while they're targeting immigrants today, tomorrow it could easily be anyone who disagrees with the president. Imagine them hunting down "communists" from local communities next.

I'm a political refugee in Costa Rica, because my wife is a brown-skinned, non-citizen, and I was/am a Democratic activist (and undoubtedly on an FBI watchlist). We left when Trump was elected, because it no longer felt safe in the US, and everything that happened since then only proved my point.

There have been many targeted police campaigns: against Fred Hampton and leftwing groups like the Black Panthers and Catholic Workers. Everything unfolding now is the result of the militarized police state that many of your loyal readers have advocated for decades.

The reality is Jim Crow Amerikkkan Death squads never ended for Black/Melanated Americans or Immigrants. Millions of us murdered in cold blood yearly by white people who deem us deserving of inhumane treatment. Enslaving, terrorizing, everlasting torment at thier hands. In Jesus name of course.

Exactly If more ppl, WHITE FOLX, would read and learn and grow they wld know that our system of policing, in the US, was founded on trapping and returning, for a price, runaway slaves.

"2A patriot snipers need to be manning the rooftops and protecting their neighbors from unidentified kidnappers... liberal and progressives there are not ALL gun-shy, y'all are armed to the teeth, is it time to stop the brown shirts/SS" is what i might write in a fictional novel about Nazi Murica..

"Arm Up!! time to take the rooftops and strategic firing positions.. silent, vigilant protecting your neighbors vote without fear.. Thugs may need to be zeroed to protect innocents from their tyranny." Is something you might read/write in a journal during the downfall of Western civilization ;)

ICE are a modern day Sturmabteilung I knew there’d be jackbooted thugs terrorising the populace the moment Trump told the Proud Boys to “stand back and stand by” It was never about immigration

bsky.app/profile/hill... I used to wonder how 1930s Germany happened; I haven’t in 10 yrs+ 2 lines that haunted me : “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing The appalling silence of the good-MLK Silence isn’t an option, they’re killing ppl

ICE and CBP remind me of the Stanford Prison Guard Experiment led this time by Stephen Miller while recruiting masked white supremacists, Jan 6 domestic terrorists, & sociopaths The murder & constitutional violations dont stop in the streets, the concentration camps are rampant w abuse & deaths👇

Would I find irritating is that a lot of people on the talk shows today keep saying that these ICE agents aren’t trained. Which is true. But the more important point is that they’ve hired a bunch of White Nationalists and told them it’s open season on brown people. And Donald Trump has their back.

"we have become inured to incidents in which law enforcement kills civilians. The idea that LEOs can use deadly force at the drop of a hat is accepted by the general public." Anyone who calls themselves a journalist and manages to write this without an ounce of self-reflection is a dangerous moron

Consider that you occupy one of modern society's most siloed perspectives: a yammering opinionist with no subject matter expertise, wholly ignorant of how narrow your window on the world is and the forces that shape it and yet you confidently have a platform

Bill Kristol was part of republican administrations who brought theocratic fascist Heritage Foundation Christian Coalition into the Oval Office. He has monetized both sides of the fascism he helped cause. Signed Gray haired ex Citizen Action Staff Trainer who opposed Kristol

Unadulterated murder of brown people, and white people that stand up against the regime to support them. Murder with no consequences for the murderers; no justice for the murdered.

Maybe because they’re too chicken to actually go after ‘the worst of the worst’ because that person might actually have a gun and defend themselves with it??? I can’t believe with all the gun violence in our society, that not one ICE agent has been shot (at) with their aggressive tactics!

At least you admit in part the problem which, as you correctly point out, isn't new to American history. But you fail to mention the racial component that's undeniable. A much more honest & constructive observation is to begin with this history, Jim Crow being one & Indigenous people killed another.
