The booke of love ys long & boringe
No folk kan lyft the damned thinge
Crammid ful of charters & lore & rubrics
And ynstructiouns for daunsing -
But Ich? Ich love it whan thou readest to me;
And thee, thou kanst reade me eny thinge.

Four Oglala detainees located, three still in ICE custody - ICT The four Lakota detainees were reportedly sent to a former concentration camp used during the Dakota Wars

This is surreal. 4 Oglala Lakota men kidnapped by ICE in Minneapolis have finally been located. One of them was released but the other 3 are being held at Fort Snelling, a former concentration camp used to imprison Native people incl. the Dakota 38 during Dakota Wars.

Anne Arundel County Police dispute ICE’s account of Glen Burnie shooting A deadly shooting by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Minneapolis on Wednesday renewed scrutiny of a violent Christmas Eve incident involving ICE agents in Glen Burnie, with Anne Arundel County ...

After Minneapolis, now the ICE shooting on Christmas Eve in Maryland is getting some scrutiny from local police: “…county police confirmed The Banner’s reporting that the second person injured in the encounter was already in ICE custody, in one of the agency’s vehicles, when he was hurt.”

A 35 year old letter to the editor, written by a very ballsy 15 year old, about the Rodney King verdict.

Remembering today that having your heart broken is a necessary step on the path to becoming fully human. Whichever heartbreak is your first, it’s probably critical that a state break your heart so that you can develop a political imagination. If this is your first, I’m sorry and also welcome.

When I tell you I have no distance from this Minneapolis story.

I can't muster composure. I did human rights observing in N. Ireland for 10 yrs. In the U.S., I video'd cop violence.

2008, St. Paul cops kicked in the door pointing guns at me and my crew. Days later a battering ram was at my office.

For real! Thank you Teen Vogue for the history lesson!

side discussion but anyone saying the real issue with ICE is a lack of proper training is subtly arguing for increased funding and should probably be ignored going forward regarding all substantive matters

No backing down and being soft like we did. We saw where that got us. It got us here. Can't make that mistake again.

I just grate up a fresh Fuji apple for mine but I guess applesauce would do in a pinch

Distraught woman says ICE killed her wife in video after deadly Minneapolis shooting "They killed my wife," the distraught woman says, adding, "They shot her in the head." An ICE agent shot and killed a 37-year-old woman who was driving an SUV in Minneapolis on Wednesday. / Screenshot/@Breaking911

"They killed my wife. I don't know what to do," the woman says through sobs in the footage, with a damaged SUV visible in the distance behind her. "We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head," the woman cries. "We have a six-year-old at school," she says, almost unable to breathe, as a chaotic scene in which federal officers prevented at least one doctor who was on the scene from assisting the shot victim unfolds. "We're new here," the distraught woman says in despair.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.

This could be you.

I wanna see some pedestrian bridges over the busier roads, like Broad Street and over by Semmes/ Cowardin since the street lights are practically non-existent over there.

Okay thanks for clearing that up 🤘🏻 I was thinking about it like that but then I was like wait, am I reading correctly? 🤣 I can't wait for sleep tonight

Wait were you saying I was to the state, or that you were to me by suggesting that other site, or that the candidates are on that site in a derogatory way, or? I'm ND so I need a little bit more context, it's late and I've been at work since 6am.

That's great, I'm not on the AI pr0n app, I'm on this one.

Finally after about 20 minutes of digging around, I found out where we vote in person tomorrow for the special election in RVA. The city and state websites could make it a heck of a lot easier to find for the future, put a giant banner on each webpage, I know y'all can do it.

We will remember the traitors who sold out the American people. I hope they never know a moment of peace for this.

Bunch of times this happens to pop up in the news it usually ends up being a hoax. I'll hold off on celebrating this until we can learn more.

The issue isn’t that there are revolting deranged bigots in America. The issue isn’t even that they have their own following. The issue is that they are prominent advisors and friends to the President of the United States and his team.

If you are too young to remember the Iraq War, you'll hear "no one protested" and "no one knew they were lying." Millions of people knew they were lying and protested. The press not only did not want a record of mass dissent; they did not want a record of mass knowledge of lies.

They believe they're Christian, at least the assassin probably does. I'm pretty sure Richard Ramirez also believed he was a Satanist. Whatever delusional thing they're operating under doesn't mean I'm not going to not trust them and not want a thing to do with them, TF are you on?

No why would I buy that guy who's been a liar and racist since well before I was born would ever say anything truthful in his life?

Probably bc the only folks who have ever asked that question to me in that way have only ever been ones to be Christians who are trying to pretend like trump and his ilk (including the assassin) as not real Christians.

Extremism in religion is still part of the religion even if you don't like it

I trust trump and the rest of his shit government lackeys as far as I can throw them. They've been known and shown to be shit humans from the get go so no I don't trust a damn thing out their mouths. Why would you ask a silly question like that?

When people tell me who they are, I tend to trust their word. It makes it easier to know if I should avoid them or stay around them. Seems to work since I don't hang around those types. Maybe you could do the work since it's your religion they're exploiting, not mine.

I do not know but I know that I will go against it every single time they try that ish

She inhaled trace amounts of empathy and her body went into anaphylactic shock.

So glad to have done my part and so did several of my coworkers 🖤

We had to show up and let him know we didn't want anymore of his ridiculousness. Proud of us

"I'm happy to report I'm just fine. I lost a button. But I'm gonna sleep in my bed tonight, safe, with my family... At that elevator, I was separated from someone named Edgardo... Edgardo is in ICE detention and he's not going to sleep in his bed tonight."
