The government can't be allowed to kill people without cause and say it was, um, terrorism later.
It happened to the Venezuelan fisherman.
It happened to Renee Good.
It happened to Alex Pretti.
It is a lie.

Left hand on the ground trying not to hit the pavement; right hand still holding a cell phone. ICE person standing with a one handed grip pointing his gun right at the manβs head.
There is nothing about this that we should accept. We all must reject this. This is our government, & they want this
A DHS statement claimed βan individual approached US Border Patrol officersβ with βa handgunβ in the Alex Pretti shooting incident. A Bellingcat analysis of the footage appears to show that a gun was taken away from where Pretti was situated by an agent just before the first shot was fired.

Hi folks, I'm seeing a lot of "Eyes on Minneapolis" & "We support Minnesota" sentiment. Here's a tangible way you can help:
Trump just suspended federal funding for SNAP benefits to Minnesota. Second Harvest Heartland is an MN-based hunger-relief org.
Please donate what you can.
www.2harvest.org
βAfter a sweeping, Republican-led review of more than 2 million voter registrations, Utah election officials identified just one apparent noncitizen in their voter rolls β who never voted.β
But that wont stop Trump from lying about βvoter fraud.β Ignore him. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
It is -9 degrees without windchill. I have retreated to the Skyway. But the streets are full and they keep coming. There have been larger protests but I canβt think of thatβs been more hazardous to bare skin.

Again, ICE DETAINED PEOPLE WHILE WAITING IN LINE AT A FOOD PANTRY.
Seems as if this works β if employers start firing people for standing up for their neighbors and fellow humans β than a remedy is publicizing the identity of those employers.

They donβt seek attention. They donβt ask for power. They walk only when the world is out of balance. If you see them, offer food and water.
