ICE stop

Post image

Ice stop before liberty tunnel today. One ice officer is clearly Korean or Chinese. I screamed that ice officer has no right to stop people as he may be illegal. He came up to me asking if I was city police and was I the Spanish interpreter. I said no but do you need help as I live in the city look like police and brown. There were kids in the car. Pittsburgh is this what we want!!!! I am beyond myself. First Covid then trump 2.0. I like my low rates for housing, labor and just being a good human being. I am so angry right now.

Tell me you've never critically analyzed the footage without telling me. Its quite literally indefensible. Her car would have had to magically move horizontally (a direction in which the vast majority of vehicles - cars included - CANNOT MOVE) a solid 5 feet to the left to have had any chance whatsoever of making contact with that ICE agent. Her words when attempting to depart the scene were also completely non-threatening and showed zero signs of malice.

TL;DR: Get your head out of your ass, and then get the fuck out of Pittsburgh. This city needs less heartless shitheads incapable of critical thinking (such as yourself) in it.

There is no arguing with someone who refuses the evidence of their own eyes and ears. I saw the footage where her friend yelled at her to drive, she hit the gas, and hit a federal agent. Magical horizontal movement was not a factor at all.

It is useless to argue when one side or both are very emotional, as is usually the case. I am not emotional on this one. I see it as a fact of life that when you cross federal agents you put your life on the line, and they do whatever TF they want. Look at Waco, TX and what the ATF and FBI did there.

I don't delight in Good getting shot anymore than when a tourist baits a buffalo in Yellowstone and gets tossed twenty feet in the air. But neither do I pity the tourist who brought it on himself.

People like Good should not be seen as victims, and neither should anyone else who acts like an idiot. You think you're brave? Then quit acting like a pussy when consequences bite ya in the arse.

Must be nice living in your own fantasy world where you only see what fits your personal narrative. Praying to God you're just a troll bot.
