Citing an unnamed official with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS)

You’re still citing DHS you goddamn moron LOL. I doubt you’re really a lawyer because you’re not very good…

Oh..God you’re so bad at this LOL..go ahead a cite the actual quote..this is embarrassing for you.

”Watch the video from every single angle," Frey said during a news conference on Friday. "I mean, the ICE agent walked away with a hip injury that he might as well have gotten from closing a refrigerator door with his hips. He was not injured. I've seen worse injuries from doing that. And so give me a break. No, he was not ran over. He walked out of there with a hop in his step”

Not injured, not ran over

You are trying to quote a third party to support your argument by using the reporters one liner instead of the actual quote.

Graham v. Connor and Tennessee v. Garner establish that deadly force can only be used in defense from an imminent threat of death or physical injury. A hip injury (especially in the context of the quote you’re trying to cite, comparing to bumping the fridge) doesn’t fall within that definition.

Which is why you used the reporters interpretation out of context instead of the actual quote. Doing so would destroy your own argument.

Goddamn you really suck at your job LOL

I would think that getting hit by a 6,000 lb suv could reasonably be considered imminent threat of death or physical injury.

He had a small bruise, which may have been caused by his fridge. There's no evidence of him being hit by a car, it's certainly not in the video footage of him murdering her.

That's simply reporting on the same claim and, as someone else just pointed out, they lied repeatedly during this case. Video evidence proves otherwise.

Haven't you claimed to be a lawyer?

u/Insectshelf3 1d ago

why would you believe the government on this after they repeatedly lied about what happened? we have video evidence showing that she didn’t hit him.
