An ICE Agent has just been shown on video murdering an unarmed woman as she attempted to drive away from them, shooting her at just a couple of metres away. Not surprisingly, Noem has claimed the agent acted in self defence. That is utter BS. If you watch the video closely, the woman in the car has her wheels turned full lock to the right and starts to slowly turn away from the agent, for which she is then shot dead. I also saw reports that a doctor who saw it happen was denied access to render medical care and that when paramedics attended about 15 minutes later, they were blocked by ICE Agent vehicles, with agents instead carrying her lifeless body to the paramedics. This is utterly appalling and I hope the Agent who shot this woman is immediately placed on administrative leave while the investigation takes place. Given this is the Trump administration, I seriously doubt that will happen.
I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often.
You have ICE agents operating with no visible identification, frequently in plain clothes, faces concealed, producing no warrants, yet issuing orders as though mere assertion substitutes for lawful authority. That is not policing, it's intimidation theatre.
A state that normalises masked men conducting warrantless seizures should not be shocked when citizens question whether those men are legitimate agents of law, or something far darker. They're lucky that they're cowards and only targeting law abiding people, not those willing to 2nd Amendment them.
Now we have a US citizen dead for the act of observing, exercising a well-established constitutional right, and standing up for the legal protections of others. Instead of accountability, we're offered the usual smear, recast posthumously as a "domestic terrorist", because Trump Derangement Syndrome has become the all-purpose excuse for excusing state violence, and the MAGA faithful will dutifully nod along.
I hope this agent eventually has his day in court, once the Trump administration is removed and the rule of law is no longer treated as optional. Actions taken without legal authority are not heroic, they are criminal.
Until then, public scrutiny is not persecution. His actions were not warranted, and I hope he never again experiences a moment of peace and is always looking over his shoulder now that I've seen his name reported around the internet.
bugger ICE.
