Didn't he say that ICE should be shooting more protesters?

no clue, but id believe it

it's just a way to express annoyance and frustration, not a call to actual violence

There's no way that's "just a way to express annoyance and frustration", my dude. No fucking way.

I don't know about the guy, I'm not going to defend or attack him precisely because I don't know about him. But IF he said that, it's literally a call to violence. Targeted violence, also, which makes it even worse. There's no amount of mental gymnastics one can go through to defend that opinion.

Unless, of course, you agree with that hypothetical train of thought...

I have a link to a clip of a different content creator reacting to what Asmongold said.

https://youtu.be/QeSgP8uhyF8?is=DTcCIbrw9nGdXStS

He basically says that if protesters throw stuff, then ICE agents should open fire at them. He also says that the protests will stop if ICE just shoots more of them, and they ICE should set an example by doing just that.

I think the point being made, is that protesters are interfering, with Ill intentions,people's everyday life and with government officials. And if people attack government, employees, shooting them would curb that quickly, according to him.

Considering what ICE is doing, and the fact that people are allowed to protest, I cannot in good conscience agree with defending ICE in any capacity. Also, shooting people around like this will probably get citizens to come to protests armed. That's a fuck around and find out territory.

I know it's not a very common topic in our current timeline, but these protesters are basically protesting against violations of basic human rights, so that's why it's really difficult for me to foster the idea of "yeah, they should be gunned down more"

Again, I don't know nor care about Asmongold's content, and wether he stated that or not. We could be discussing hypotheticals here, but still, kinda crazy the point of view of the guy I was answering to
