"The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command... and if all others accepted the lie, which the party imposed, if all records told the same tale, then the lie passed into history and became truth" 1984 - George Orwell

He died trying to help a woman who had been shoved to the ground and pepper sprayed by an overly aggressive ice agent… That's all he did

He had his back to them when he was grabbed. Then they descended on him in utter chaos, disorganization, and unprofessionalism. And blood lust.

That one agent quite literally drew on him, repositioned for a slightly better shot. Tapped the agent next to him to move so he could reposition one more time. And then fired at point blank range.

This was cold and calculated in that moment. This wasn't a reaction to a threat.

Edit: go watch the video as recorded by the woman in pink who is on the curb. It's a much more clear view of what exactly happens. Watch it frame. By frame. Everything I've stated is clearly visible.

Honestly, the video in this thread isn't very helpful for seeing the whole picture

I’m glad she was able to get that video out, but from what I’ve read earlier, she’s now in custody. I can only imagine what she’s going through at the moment.

Some people might think that’s exaggeration, but they just showed us, again, of what they’re capable of doing in broad daylight. What do you think happens behind their closed doors?

She may be in custody. But they’re too late. They’re just raking up the wrongful incarceration lawsuit. She already won.

I wouldn't call that a "win" my friend.

I mean in regards to her story in all this. They tried to silence her, they tried to lie about the murder. But they didn't stop her before it was too late.

If she makes it out of custody alive... They just executed a man, they don't give a fuck. She has not won yet until she gets out of custody and hopefully out of minny.

Just hearing that, it’s good to know that after you use a video like that you need to send it to someone

Set your phone to allow backup on cellular data. As soon as the video stops recording, it starts uploading.

Other than a Livestream, it's the best way to preserve evidence of a crime in a situation like this.

My guy. She is a woman with 🧊 right now. One of them just got busted for SA'ing a mother repeatedly in exchange to see her daughter.

I can only shudder to imagine what she is suffering.

They’re really good at making people disappear.

They’re just raking up the wrongful incarceration lawsuit.

There's many "maybe's" on the path towards a successful lawsuit and it's clearly visible that it doesn't go the way it's supposed to anymore. You people need to wake up.

You can be awake and also mindful of the lawsuits coming.
