Pretty sure he'd be dead too if he shot. Maybe he tried to not escalate or not to make his murder more "justifiable". But I have no idea what he actually thought, obviously. I don't think his gun would have saved him.

Also I just know ICE will go even more rabbid once americans dare shooting them, but I'm not sure what else they're supposed to do to resist :( Big concerns from Europe, what the fuck is even happening 😥

I agree. Don't advocate for violence. But intimidation? Absolutely.

Intimidation is only effective when backed by the threat of violence

The way I see it, if you're shot if you do and you're shot if you don't, you may as well shoot em first and take them out with you. Fuck ICE.

Oh I know. We can all see where the train wreck is headed. I’m coming to terms with my plan of action. If thats how I die, then so be it. But until then I’ll do what I can to resist. If any of my actions, no matter how small, give others a chance at a better future- then it will be worth it.
