There’s another shooting in Minneapolis this morning involving ICE.

@huntingdon @inthehands I'm referring both to this shooting and Renee Good's shooting-- her killer had 10 years of experience. The "they need more training" narrative is entirely bullshit
I'm referring to the underlying culture that lets and encourages trained agents to shoot to kill in a civil policing context, with the expectation that there will be no consequences, not even an investigation.
Imagine how that affects everyone, including new ICE agents, who have little training or context, and existing agents, who were hired because they were prone to be racist and violent skinheads.

@huntingdon sure but literally all I'm talking about are the two people who actually committed murders in my city. I have no interest in a deeper discussion at this time

“There remains a vast gulf between Trump’s authoritarian aspirations on the one hand and the realities of a complex modern state and society on the other. Obscuring that distinction is an act of defeatism that only serves the regime.”

That. In the descent into authoritarianism, we are still very much in the “consolidating power” phase — and that phase can still fail. In fact, it looks a lot less successful now than it did 6 months ago.

Despair is an emotion, not an analysis.

(That message says “Twin Cities,” but solidarity from afar is welcome, always)
@inthehands
Is there a donation account so that those who can afford it can at least support you financially? -

Thank you, Alex, for taking care of my father in law in his time of crisis. We remember you. We remember what you did for him, for all of us.
