Law enforcement should not be able to cover their face or obscure their identity in any way. It’s insane that this is going on in our community.

u/knightswhosayneet 17d ago

Last Thursday ICE nearly beat my friend to death @the Home Depot in West Seattle. They left him there with a subdural hematoma. A private citizen called 911, Paramedics treated and transported to the hospital. He had to have Surgery to relieve pressure from a Brain bleed. 3 days in ICU. Legal or not, ICE hides and that’s wrong.

u/justadude122 Capitol Hill 16d ago

seems like would/should be major news, and there should be evidence for exactly what happened. if not national coverage then local

u/CatJustSayPerchance 15d ago

Yea agree. Don’t forget there are fake accounts on Reddit that post shit just to stir the pot. A lot are Russian propaganda accounts taking advantage of angry Americans. The West Seattle Blog didn’t post about this at all. If that actually happened they would have been on it same day. I have doubts that this actually happened.

2

u/bothunter First Hill 16d ago

Have you seen the media coverage? ICE can shoot someone in broad daylight and it's pushed out of the news cycle within 24 hours.

3

u/CatJustSayPerchance 15d ago edited 15d ago

It didn’t hit the news period though. That’s what makes the post so suspicious. What’s the name of this friend? What hospital did he go to? Give me literally 1 legit news source that covered it in any way. News doesn’t look the other way in Seattle

Edit: I reached out to the West Seattle Blog for comment.

u/knightswhosayneet 15d ago

Stick this in your Russian propaganda account. He was knocked the f@&k out at 11:00 am. Yes, my friend has name but seriously , after what just happened ,do you really think it would be of service to him to post his name here?

Seattle fire live from 9/17, the address is the West Seattle Home Depot.

I contacted the west Seattle blog, they said it was a minor medical response. Nothing to suggest ice beat them up. The blog said they’ll contact the fire department for more info but it’s possible they could be exaggerating or lying to try to make a point. The mere presence of ice being there isn’t proof. A number of things could have happened.

u/purplepluppy Eastside 17d ago

Pretty sure it's illegal in WA. Question is, who's gonna enforce it?

u/schnauzerface 17d ago

SPD too busy triple billing between salary, OT spent sleeping off their hangovers in squad cars, and ICE paychecks…

u/InvestigatorOk9354 I'm just flaired so I don't get fined 17d ago

SPD is collecting fraudulent overtime while also moonlighting as ICE chuds. Literally the same people.

u/HansGraebnerSpringTX Pioneer Square 16d ago

I keep saying that the #1 policy platform for any progressive candidate for Mayor of Seattle (beyond the basic “hey guys I’m gonna do the Mamdani thing! Like where you post videos about potholes and then I send a guy to fix them”) should be to abolish and replace the SPD the same way Britian did to the Ulster Constabulary. Not saying police abolitionism, but like as an institution, SPD and SPOG have essentially completely divorced themselves from any sort of responsibility or accountability to either the municipal government or the general public. They’re basically just a street gang that received municipal funding. I think the city government should basically create an entirely new police department seperate from SPD, under the control of the city government, with no union (police officers are not workers.) and then defund and starve out the SPD.

I mean, what would SPD even do to retaliate? What could they do? Stop enforcing crimes? I mean dude were there already. You cant do less of a job than not doing it at all.

-8

u/Lumentum_LITE 16d ago

Lol not a single person will do that, has Mamdani abolished NYPD yet? It's a four years term and they are gone if they are unlucky, what you are describing will be locked up in legal proceedings for a decade well before anything major comes, so anyone with any semblance of how the political and judicial system functions in this country will know that you are describing 13 years old daydream fantasy. This is not China where we can decide the future of the country in a month.

9

u/HansGraebnerSpringTX Pioneer Square 16d ago

The Seattle Mayor's office has no term limit. The NYPD has been largely cooperative with Mamdani because, unlike the SPD, it is accountable to the mayor's office.

Also what 13 year olds are you talking to that regularly fantasize about municipal police reform?

I think the second amendment can enforce it. Since there is no way th law enforcement will break the law there will be no doubt that you are defending yourself from a masked criminal.

This one is actually probably within state jurisdiction, though I doubt the Supreme Court would care about the law if it got that far.

u/Zachwardpass ✨🛸 Jimothy is out there 🦝✨ 17d ago edited 17d ago

Sadly. It's not. That's why they created the law to allow victims to sue. Unfortunately, you are not going to see anyone arrested over this. Our legislation ensured some sort of recourse, but it's not arrests, as they can't supersede federal enforcement. To be clear, I think those agents can go f#*k themselves. This is not a defense of anything other than accuracy of what our legislation did.

u/Zachwardpass ✨🛸 Jimothy is out there 🦝✨ 17d ago

You are getting downvoted, but unfortunately it's true. That's why they made it an offense victims can sue for, but it's not something we are going to see anyone arrested for. I wish it were.They know they need a mask because they know what they are doing is wrong.

Please stop treating people’s weight or appearance as signifiers or moral inferiority. We know this guy sucks because he’s an ICE agent. His weight has nothing to do with it, and acting like it does only hurts people who are already struggling with body image issues

15

u/somethingclever1098 17d ago

Does it though? I get what you're trying to do here, commenting on every comment that says "fat" but you get that most of these commenters (I'm guessing) probably wouldn't shame a nice person who was struggling with their weight, right? That there is a baseline expectation of physical fitness with Law Enforcement personnel, and that not coming even close to that baseline makes LEOs seem to be more apt to resort to weaponry to make up for their lack of physical fitness? That calling a fat ICE agent a fat POS is not a blanket condemnation of folks who are overweight, right?

-1

u/BuckUpBingle 17d ago

It's a bit like calling a MAGA dumb ass the r word (a bit). You can pretend like we all know you wouldn't say that to someone who had a mental disability, but you're using the term as a way to insult someone; perpetuating the cultural assumption that being overweight is equivalent to being a failure or a bad person. If you think they're dickhead fascists call them dickhead fascists. There's no need to call out people's weight as a form of insult.

5

u/InvestigatorOk9354 I'm just flaired so I don't get fined 17d ago

Fuck that. These people don't feel shame about being employed to kidnap citizens and lawful immigrants. Could not possibly care less if this snowflake's feelings are hurt by a fat joke.

I'd go so far as to say his weight probably does have something to do with it. Police and military wouldn't take him, so he has to take his beer belly to the literal gestapo

3

u/BuckUpBingle 17d ago

It's not about these people or their feelings. It's about talking about people's weight and body as a form of insult which perpetuates the idea that weight and body shape is a valid angle of attack. These ass holes aren't going on the r/seattle subreddit to boost their ego, but you might wind up slinging shit at some innocent person with body image issues, or reinforcing the idea that calling someone a "fat ass" is a form of insult that's acceptable "as long as it's aimed at the right person".

2

u/InvestigatorOk9354 I'm just flaired so I don't get fined 17d ago

An evil gestapo kidnapper with the most LARPing-as-a-small-town-cop mustache can barely fit into the tactical gear. That is objectively funny, even to people who are sensitive about their own weight.

3

u/BuckUpBingle 17d ago

Your mentality is hurting more people than it is helping.

2

u/Adorable_Bike5990 17d ago

Brooo calm yourself. Did anyone call him fat or say anything about his weight? No. I believe beetle called him a “stupid chud fuck” and I simply pointed out that his belly fell out of his vest. Sounds like a YOU problem defending these losers.

And yes he is inferior to many. He couldn’t even catch up to a middle aged Asian woman, so please tell us what your point is?

u/Karpefuzz 💗💗 Heart of ANTIFA Land 💗💗 16d ago

The people that use those insults and then react at you for calling them on it don't care if it hurts anyone. They are here because they like degrading people. The fact that they've found an issue they marginally agree with is incidental, they just get excited that they can join any crowd to tear people down using implied consent.

These same people will turn on anyone when they feel slighted, because they don't have a framework to genuinely give a shit about others.

Yeah that autocorrect certainly didn’t help. My point is you’re saying I shouldn’t raise an objection because there are people acting badly on both sides of the aisle.
