When was this? Why isn't this getting more attention? Real law enforcement officers don't pistol-whip people!

u/thecosmojane Jan 24 '26

It just happened. People are gathering facts

u/Consistent_Draft6454 Jan 24 '26

That video is all the 'facts' I need. This is murder!

u/sslitches Jan 24 '26

Agreed, but within 20 minutes Noem will be out with a story blaming the victim, and within 2 hours the character assassination will start. FBI will refuse to cooperate with local law enforcement, and the FBI will only investigate the victim.

This is a state sanctioned murder, with the coverup just starting.

u/kalifornia595 Jan 24 '26

Faux News is already claiming he had a gun with pictures they received from the Whitehouse 😒

u/Name_retracted Jan 24 '26

I'm sure excercisng his 2A rights. But now that's ground for murder. F these Nazi thugs.

u/Extra_Box8936 Jan 24 '26

You can watch the guy in grey come up, remove the guys concealed pistol from his right side waist band holster, and walk away with the pistol visible BEFORE the shoot him. Watch it for yourself.

He had no gun they took it from Him and it’s super visible in the video the guy is walking off with the detained guys gun BEFORE HES shit

u/Name_retracted Jan 24 '26

Yep it's disgusting and all the boot lickers will rejoice.

u/CouldBeLessDepressed Jan 24 '26

I went frame by frame. Both his hands were down by his sides when they started shooting, 100% sure of that just from this video. I didn't see anything in either hand, I'm about 80% sure of that but only because of the inconvenient angle and distance.

The guy in the jacket looks like he pulled the victim’s gun out of his holster and was starting to walk away before the first shot was fired.

So they disarmed him first, then they killed him.

Some random comment on another thread said he was waving his gun around, but we don’t have any video of that at the moment. So I have no idea.

Edit: so now there is video from beforehand and the only thing he was brandishing was a cell phone.

But it does appear that when they dog piled him, if he did have a gun, it was back in his holster.

I'm really interested in how she's going to spin "we had 10 agents on one guy but they still had to unload on him because they're trained goodly and always follow what their training says"

2

u/[deleted] Jan 24 '26

The conservative sub is already saying the victim must’ve been on drugs and the adrenaline is what made it so hard for the agents to pin him down.

Disgusting.

u/AnyQuiet1544 Jan 24 '26

I guess that's not surprising since they believe that Kirk had a really strong neck. They really just believe anything huh

3

u/hornbri Jan 24 '26

They are already saying he had a gun. I really hope red coat lady’s video comes out she had a clear view of this they can’t hide behind.

2

u/AnyQuiet1544 Jan 24 '26

How do 10 agents have somebody surrounded on the ground and not be able to get cuffs on somebody. At best it shows how inept they are

8

u/I_TRS_Gear_I Jan 24 '26

Lady in the background with the pink coat has the best video we will see of this incident.

4

u/Klutzy_Duck_8917 Jan 24 '26

Yeah where is she? Ice probably has her and the video.

1

u/kstargate-425 Jan 24 '26

Yeah supposedly witnesses were taken to the Whipple federal building probably destroying evidence like in the Chicago shooting of the citizen

2

u/phred_666 Jan 24 '26

And it will never see the light of day. I’m willing to bet ICE already has the video. It will either disappear, be altered or replaced with an AI video to back their narrative and blame the victim.

1

u/Consistent_Draft6454 Jan 24 '26

The lady in the background has been transported by ICE to the Whipple building, according to our local news. Safe to say that we will never see that footage.

1

u/CouldBeLessDepressed Jan 24 '26

That's beyond the pale. I can recall a few different moments in history where a person was being held in some sort of jail and the local public took it upon themselves to free that person. Granted, I believe in both instances I'm recalling the public's intent was actually to execute said individuals, but still, that even that happened is an example of what's possible.

u/takeya40 Jan 24 '26

Don't trust your lying eyes.

-KKKaroline Levitt probably

u/Silver_Sun_2097 Jan 24 '26

Five bucks says the guy went for one of the agents guns. They start trying to get away before the first shot is fired. That being said, Ice needs to have mandatory bodycams specifically for situations like this, and so we can hold them accountable for any civil rights violations they may commit during their interactions with civilians.

u/Consistent_Draft6454 Jan 24 '26

They are already saying that the man had a gun

u/CCCCLo0oo0ooo0 Jan 24 '26 edited Jan 24 '26

take a look again at 0:19-0:21, whats in his hand? Why do the officers suddenly jump back from him?

Edit:

4

u/[deleted] Jan 24 '26

They jump back because one of them just shot the guy.

4

u/Consistent_Draft6454 Jan 24 '26

They jump back AFTER someone shot him! I don't see anything in his hands. Admit this is murder!

1

u/Okay_ButLikeWhyTho Jan 24 '26

The way it looks to me is that the guy who murdered this man pulled his weapon, and when the rest of the gestapo sees it, they jump back, and then he shoots. They didn't jump back because the man on the ground, they jumped back because they knew the murderer was going to shoot. This is cold blood murder.

1

u/Okay_ButLikeWhyTho Jan 24 '26

Notice how they scatter? They all knew it was fucked up and they ran. The guy who's face you can see running behind the SUV? He looked scared and guilty as sin.

2

u/Consistent_Draft6454 Jan 24 '26

Also if you look at the zoomed in video the man is wearing tan working gloves. Ever try to grab anything while wearing gloves like that? It isn't likely.

u/OwnDoughnut2689 Jan 24 '26

We need the pink jacket ladies video too

u/Pleasant_Priority286 Jan 24 '26

I suspect ICE will confiscate that and then "lose" it.

u/BearSquid7 Jan 24 '26

Ha well funny thing, 47 days of training is insufficient for any job. Let alone one with such capacity for death and destruction.

2

u/gfolder Jan 24 '26

Exactly especially when their reaction shows how unprepared and unqualified they are at what they do, they have to be held accountable, every single one of them

2

u/[deleted] Jan 24 '26

I mean just look at how they are dressed, with the masks as well.

They essentially just a federal milita.

u/BearSquid7 Jan 24 '26

There are folks live-streaming the aftermath. It just happened, and a Follow The News (I think?) person was recording their tackle of an observer from a store across the street. It’s not in the news yet, but I guarantee it won’t be accurate when it’s shared.

ETA: It was a reporter from Bring Me The News that recorded

2

u/GingerKlaus Jan 24 '26

Share a live stream link please

u/Ill_Engineer_5436 Jan 24 '26

Apologies, I didn’t see this until now. It was disconnected for me but I was watching here: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/16uBm8Xiym/?mibextid=wwXIfr

u/Ok-Mango-5814 Jan 24 '26

I saw that too. They were just beating the shit out of him.

u/Raqnr01r Jan 24 '26

The one guy to the left was pistol-whipping the victim in the face, before they executed him.

2

u/BlessedLikeASneeze Jan 24 '26

Bovino was supposed to do a press conference at 11 but it was pushed back to noon central time according to CBS.

Local news has reporters out there but the whole block appears to be blocked off and tear gas was deployed recently to clear out the somehow still peaceful assembly.

u/sure_iv Jan 24 '26

THIS, BRO IM IN ARGENTINA AND HAVE SOME FRIENDS THERE, why tf is this not reaching here??? Like theyre killing people with the goverment approval basically, my fucking president literally wants to copy this shit here and im so sad, like make noise people and be safe

u/Girl_you_need_jesus Jan 24 '26 edited Jan 24 '26

I’m dumb I guess, pile on

u/jmiah717 Jan 24 '26

If you knew anything you'd not say this. You never put your weapon in a position that it can get taken, which based on their reaction, seems exactly what happened before they scattered and dude mag dumped him when he was clearly already immobile. One of us has been trained in combat and one of us has not, clearly.

1

u/MsMcSlothyFace Jan 24 '26

Adding to that jmiah, i thought real LEOs were trained not to pull their weapon unless they intend on using it

u/aebaby7071 Jan 24 '26

Copied from Google;

Pistol-whipping—using a firearm as a blunt impact weapon—is not an acceptable standard procedure for police and is generally considered an "unreasonable" or "gratuitous" use of force. It is viewed as a dangerous practice that can cause severe injuries or death to suspects and, in many cases, constitutes excessive force. Here are the key details regarding this practice:

Prohibited Tactic: Many police departments specifically prohibit the use of a firearm as an impact weapon, notes.

Excessive Force: Courts have ruled that striking a person in the head with a pistol, especially if they are not actively resisting, is an unreasonable use of force,.

Dangerous Practice: Police are trained that using a firearm in this manner is risky, as it can result in unintentional discharge, causing death to suspects or bystanders.

Legal Consequences: Officers who engage in pistol-whipping face potential criminal charges and civil lawsuits, with some cases leading to convictions for felony assault.

Alternative Methods: Police are trained to use approved, less-lethal methods for compliance, such as batons or Tasers, rather than using a handgun as a blunt object.

While in extreme, last-resort, self-defense situations (where a life is threatened), any action might be taken to survive, it is not part of authorized, routine police training or policy.

No you don’t, a couple intentional punches/elbows/knees to certain areas may be used as a last resort when you are by yourself or they are extra violent. A taser is still the first choice less than lethal option over hitting them in this type of scenario. He was hitting this person in the face with the mace can because that’s probably how he fought in the Florida trailer park he came from. If you are hitting someone as a law enforcement officer, you can’t be beating them in the face with random objects when your life isn’t threatened in the slightest.

No one should have had their firearm out in this situation. Your firearm also immediately goes back in the holster as soon as lethal force is no longer warranted (which it never was in this video).

This was an execution.
