---> ICE is shooting peaceful protestors who are exercising their 1st Amendment rights. That is what I see.

That's exactly what I see, too.

They are recruiting thugs with guns at this very moment. Who would sign up for an unarmed thug force? It just doesn't have that juicy thug appeal, even with the money being offered.

You make a good and logical argument. Unfortunately, in thug circles, logic does not lead. Just another opportunity for Males Behaving Badly.

When a state starts justifying violence as “order,” it stops being accountable to the people it claims to protect.

Once obedience replaces responsibility, the machinery of power runs without brakes.

Rage Against the Machine saw that dynamic clearly in the ’90s, and addressed the issue in their song ‘Killing in the Name’:

Thank you, Carl...this is an interesting perspective and one that might affect a few Republicans.

It sounds "moderate," and not dismissive of the idea that there MAY BE dangerous people immigrating in order to do harm. But right now, it's ICE, the rabid extension of Trump and Miller's paranoid, hate-filled minds that is doing all the purposeful and sadistic damage.

If ICE vanished tomorrow, your rent, groceries, health care, and wages wouldn’t improve. That should tell you something about what’s real—and what’s performative.

WHAT EXACTLY IS YOUR POINT?

The point is, too many people are laser focused on issues that will never hit their doorstep, only their screens.

The media is doing this on purpose, radicalizing people with otherwise normal lives, driving them to the streets to get injured or killed, then they disappear after taking their profits.

Thanks. It’s very difficult to get people on board with this concept.

People think I’m supporting or defending one side or another, but that’s not the case.

I’m attacking the very system that is enslaving them, which is a system of media narratives, designed to steer behaviors.

In the end, people wind up defending that very same system enslaving them.

It’s like Stockholm Syndrome or something.

They are murderers released on the public by the most sadistic administration we have ever seen!

Finally found full testimony of the dramatic victim statements before Congress. Please SHARE with folks who are seeing the light on horrific ICE brutality.
