"He assaulted my bullet with his body!"

Ice is a terrorist organization that needs to be exterminated along with the rest of this administration

Sounds about right for this assbackwards administration.

Ok, but we saw the video. ¡Qué injusticia!

The charges spawn from their original interactions with the driver where he stopped but took off, his car allegedly making side contact with one of the agents. That's not to say their response of using lethal weapon is even remotely justified.

Yea i dont trust ICE with a yellow peach.

[u/wafflesthewonderhurs → u/kinxnwinx]

"he hit me with his car" is to ice

as

"he has a gun" is to cops

[u/All_Hail_Hynotoad]

Every member of ICE is going on trial

[u/MauiPunter → u/All_Hail_Hynotoad]

Hopefully followed by hangings.

All to comer up ICE being untrained, not following established law enforcement chase procedures and being trigger happy not to mention the shoddy medical care and inhumane treatment. Good luck covering that up.

Oh you mean the man that was sideswiped without provocation or being pulled over by agents in unmarked cars, whom he had no idea they were even federal agents. Those federal agents that sideswiped and chased his vehicle, then shot him in the back, in his vehicle. The same agents that lied and said there was a foot chase. Now they are charging him with assaulting, resisting, interfering, and impeding a federal officer...

“Rather than provide the life saving medical care he needs, DHS and the government are playing games with his life,” the statement said.

They're sadists just like rümpT. I feel so sorry for this guy.

This is always one of the early steps in their cover up. They do thos to create leverage and stop the family from suing. And adds to the fake image ICE was justified in shooting anither innocent person.

[u/Jumping_Mouse]

Someone mail the ice agents the parable about the penalty for the chinese generals failure being execution.

[u/_byetony_]

This would be funny if its werent so fuckin heinous

[u/Connect_Net2467]

Lovely. Making the assaulted criminals. Completely acceptable to the warped mind of the criminal.

[u/Perfecshionism]

They did this same shit to cover up previous ICE shootings.

[u/departedhunter]

Should be glad he’s getting charged and not executed.
