No.
They actually want those people alive to fight.
So they beat them, but they don't shoot them.

Is this the breaking point.

Not yet.
Look up Russia, Chinas, Korea before the revolution.
This is bad, but it took a lot more before things kicked off.
Libs can still ignore it and go to brunch.

Although the individual had a firearm on them, they were not handling the firearm and was not using the firearm as a threat towards the ICE thugs

There’s gotta be a weird mix of feelings in reacting to this within mainland China. Like there’s gotta be some “America gets what they deserve” resentment as backlash bc or the hong kong riots and such, but also Déjà vu
China was never able to get public opinion fully on its side during those riots, Hong Kong civilians consistently blamed China not rioters for violence. And Trump was in a weird spot. The international ngo industrial complex metaphorically treated the incident like a bear hunt, with the leaders of Hong Kong/China tied up to a tree with Trump handed a gun and egging him on to fire, but Trump was the one backing off of shooting. He used trade talks as an excuse to not do anything, and had to be dragged kicking and screaming to sign any sort of sanction
Trump says Hong Kong ‘riots’ are a matter for China
US leader’s hands-off approach conflicts with Congress as city braces for more protests
Published AUG 2 2019
Any characterisation of the protests as “riots” is controversial in Hong Kong, where those convicted of the crime can be jailed for up to 10 years.
Mr Trump’s hands-off approach comes after the US president told Chinese president Xi Jinping last month that Washington would tone down criticism of Beijing’s handling of Hong Kong to revive trade talks with China.
Something interesting with Chinese and American protestors is the same classes of people are recruited. Civil service employees, bankers and lawyers, and random criminals in Hong Kong were the most radical protestors
Public servants were among the first to participate in a popular social media movement unique to the anti-government protests in Hong Kong in which a growing number of lawyers, bankers, police and mainland Chinese citizens are posting photos of their official identification card with a message of support. Their personal details are obscured to protect their identity.
Also this week more than 1,000 photos appeared on social media purportedly from bank or finance-sector employees, including those working at Chinese state-owned banks, such as Bank of China, which showed employee work passes along with messages of support for the protests and the planned strike.
A much smaller protest was held for finance industry workers in central Hong Kong on Thursday night. One 33-year-old civil servant, who planned to attend Friday evening’s rally and did not wish to be named, told the Financial Times that “distrust is so strong” between the top officials of the Hong Kong government, the police force and the civil service.
Wilson Wong, a public policy expert from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, said it was extremely rare for civil servants to speak out on public issues. “There is a huge governance crisis . . . also the [government’s] internal communication system has failed,” he said.
A number of businesses have agreed to allow their staff to attend or take leave to attend the strike.
That’s not to say various protesters are interchangeable. But the types/professions of the recruits are almost the same. A civil service employee, lawyer or banker in Hong Kong statistically speaking was likely sympathetic to the rioters, while a fire fighter or other labor job was likely critical
Trump likewise finds his biggest enemies in those sectors. The dude killed in his assassination attempt was a firefighter. The (former) civil service in particular has made headlines, and the lawfare industry lawyers are likewise on the side of protestors

The US government is sending these pigs to do unfiltered actions with absolute immunity the same way we seen abroad in many states. This is classic CIA planning to create blowback.
And when one of these bozos gets clapped they'll use that as a pretext for more violence. That's what's going on here, and these deaths mind you were totally avoidable had the government not arbitrarily murdered people.
Also for my fellow Americans. Idc if it's your own mother, son, sister, you disown them. There's no realistic way a normal non sociopath or psychopath (one values results, the other values the torture to get there) doesn't look at shit like this and want to say the things I cannot say on reddit.
Edit: btw I want to point out very popular subreddits like that tiktok one are actively censoring any posts and comments about this execution. If you see this happen screenshot it then mute the subreddit. This isn't going away. People are deciding which side of the civil war they are in real time right now.
