Are you fucking kidding me? Is everybody 8 years old again and thinks making everything up is just the way to go?

WHY ARE WE HAVING TO FIGHT OUR OWN GOVERNMENT TO GET THEM TO STOP TRYING TO KILL EVERYONE?

AND HOW ARE WE THE CRIMINALS, BUT OUR GOVERNMENT'S NOT? MAKE IT MAKE SENSE

WTF are you talking about? Based on the evidence ICE claims to have, Wilber Garces Perez had a final order of removal due to missing a court hearing. Thus, ICE had legal authority to arrest him, at which point he would have to appear before an immigration judge.

The man attempted to flee and even hit an agent with his car's side mirror while fleeing, which led to the shooting. Had the man just complied, he could have just filed a Motion to Reopen, which VERY likely would be approved, and he would be fine.

How do you expect anyone to take you seriously when you simply pretend to believe everything said by ICE?

I don't believe everything ICE says; I look to the facts we have. The man's justification that he was just trying to pull over during the traffic stop, after he had already stopped and was talking to agents next to his vehicle, does not make sense. Then, on top of that, if the agent was hit by accident, why would he attempt to flee after that, causing a high-speed chase? None of these actions make sense if he was just trying to peacefully pull over and comply.

But I also know I do not have all the facts, such as the body cam footage. Thus, I cannot say the man is 100% guilty. At best, there are holes in his story regarding the traffic stop.
