American citizen. No criminal record. Shot to death in his car by #ICE.

Anyone believe the official version?

Only a fool would believe the official version. ICE/DHS lies as often as #pResidentPiggy

@gleick Never trust anything from #ICE or #DHS

@gleick "The ICE documents state that Homeland Security Investigation agents from Harlingen, Texas, were helping the South Padre Island Police Department control traffic near a car accident..."
It would be interesting to know why HSI, based 150+ miles away from Padre Island, was helping local police with traffic control.

Dissent is the tying knot here, and in the other two.

Regardless of the truth, we are being taught that dissent is death.

But isn't dissent what brought us to this all anyways?

Funny how they are always at risk of being harmed by a vehicle that suddenly accelerates sideways at them.

@BruceMirken @gleick yeah, any person or organization caught outright lying multiple times, everything has to be distrusted until proven otherwise.
