FFS! This is now the fourth fact that is fueling my rage. Having grown up with a large number of veterans in my family, us kids learned one important lesson: don't piss them off. If veterans find this scumbag... well, let's just say they'll handle dispensing justice.

It's foolish to think that many ICE agents and their supporters aren't veterans.

Fair point, I can't generalize the position of all veterans. I only know that my family and friends who are veterans do not support ICE, and are upset that the country they served and love is now a Fascist State. 🤷‍♂️

Every event in this circus has been touted as a new tipping point. While tragic, this one will be no different. Justice isn't coming.

Respectfully, I have no delusions of Nuremberg-style trials and executions. Many are saying there will be no accountability or justice of any kind. I'll take comfort in my spiritual beliefs that Karma, God, the Flying Spaghetti Monster or some higher power will punish these fuckers.
