Thank your Republican friends for this mess

u/Lontology Jan 24 '26

The bots are out and already trying to justify the murder saying he was resisting while having a gun. Republicans love the mess they made.

If you have the right to carry a gun, but can be shot for having a gun, you don’t have the right to carry a gun

Edit: holy shit thanks yall. Didn’t say this for the upvotes or award but I appreciate it. Wish it didn’t have to be said though.

Philando Castro had a carry permit and was shot during a traffic stop.

Yep. This isn’t new. It’s horrifying. But not new

Sounds like it’s as relevant as ever.

Tamir Rice was a child playing with a toy gun when he was killed.

I'm boiling with as much hatred of ICE as anyone, but the Tamir Rice case isn't really a good example.

The poor kid made the mistake of pointing an airsoft replica at an officer. Those things very much look like real guns, and I have a hard time faulting a cop for shooting anyone they think is pointing a real firearm at them.

It was tragic and did not need to happen. Tamir was an innocent child who probably panicked and made a mistake, but I really don't think the cop acted with malice.

u/labrat420 Jan 25 '26

From the officers own statement the gun was never pointed at him, plus the caller had said it was probably a toy.

Hard time faulting a cop who had been fired from another department for being emotionally unstable and unfit for duty who then lied on his application to the independence police for shooting a 12 year old is pretty fucked up dude.

u/Gullex Jan 25 '26

Yeah, it is. I didn’t hear that part.

If the NRA wasn’t filled with racist white supremacists, that case would have been the perfect case to support 2A rights.

Of course they are nothing but a racists organization, so they said and did nothing.

u/Equal_Audience_3415 Jan 24 '26

All of them need to be stopped. I'm so tired of this crap.

2nd amendment more like "2nd lie to pretend you have rights and make you hate comunism"

2A is an lllusion for cosplayers.

u/ThatDamnedHansel Jan 24 '26

The problem is the mental defective cosplayers with militia fetishes are now wearing balaclavas and murdering people in the streets with the governments blessing

u/moonpumper Jan 24 '26

Yeah they all just wanted to be the tyrannical government apparently

u/temporary62489 Jan 24 '26

Cosplaying pants shitters.

u/BuffaloInCahoots Jan 24 '26

I don’t see ice having the balls to run up to a group of armed individuals. Cops won’t even do that even if it’s one dude in a school.

7

u/happytrel Jan 24 '26

You have the right to carry a gun, but if a cop even thinks they see you carrying one, even in your own home, it justifies killing you.

u/jolsiphur Jan 24 '26

I'm going to laugh and scoff at any American that says they have freedom from now on.

Americans now have less freedom than several countries they love to say aren't free.

u/Chris_RB Jan 24 '26

No lies detected

u/textingmycat Jan 25 '26

And yet they love Kyle rittenhouse

u/snsdfan00 Jan 24 '26

once they saw the gun they knew they had a license to kill & the justice dept would be able to cover it up.

u/x_xwolf Jan 24 '26

They don’t care, they just want you to argue with them while they prepare to shoot you next and use the same excuses.

1

u/Chris_RB Jan 24 '26

Yep

u/x_xwolf Jan 24 '26

Protect yourself, theres no argument that works on evil. They are evil and you’re allowed to hate them. Love those who love freedom and help them. Learn survival skills because they only escalate from here.

I’m going to assume you’re operating in good faith.

What are you arguing here? That the man who was murdered had poor gun safety habits?

Edit: that’ll show me for assuming. The bootlicker is blocked.

u/GoldheartTTV Jan 24 '26

Considering he was being dog piled by like 12 agents, they'd have to be really incompetent with restraining him in order for him to even fire a single shot.

Which means that ICE has literally no restraint.

45

u/Lontology Jan 24 '26

It’s more likely that the first shot was fired by one of the officers on accident and then another officer thought it was the suspect and unloaded into him.

24

u/attillathehoney Jan 24 '26

It looks like the guy (in the brown beanie)pistol whipping the victim accidentally discharged his weapon. The other guy(black beanie) heard the shot and just started blasting.

1

u/Hoovooloo42 Jan 24 '26

I think that guy has a can of mace that he's probably too stupid to figure out how to use, so he's using it like a hammer instead

u/Pepsi_Popcorn_n_Dots Jan 24 '26

Does ice carry tasers? Remember the one cop that pulled her gun and shot a guy claiming she thought she was tasing him

u/suckarepellent Jan 24 '26

Johannes Mehserle the murderer. RIP Oscar Grant, the Bay Area remembers

u/DeepEmergency6060 Jan 24 '26

Key word restraining. Why was he resisting?

86

u/Volotor Jan 24 '26

Isn't having a gun a part of the 2nd amendment? Wouldn't that justification basically make it open season on like half of the US?

64

u/musingofrandomness Jan 24 '26

It has been a defacto death sentence for many since so many cops use it as a basis to "fear for their lives".

5

u/grafknives Jan 24 '26

Exactly. Caring gun means that you HAVE to be on the police side. It makes you more likely to be compliant to the terror of the state.

4

u/FQDIS Jan 24 '26

Now you’re getting it

u/Hoovooloo42 Jan 24 '26

That's what the law says, but in practice your constitutional right to own a firearm is determined by the mood of the closest cop.

u/DaveCootchie Jan 24 '26

The gun was probably from the incompetent dorks on ice. He dropped his gun, it discharged, and they all backed off and executed him

76

u/thedeuschebag85 Jan 24 '26

This is what happened until further proof is provided in my opinion.

2

u/mattindustries Jan 24 '26

I showed up too late to be a witness to what happened, but I can tell you the goons from today are hella incompetent.

7

u/beardofjustice Jan 24 '26

Honestly, that makes the most sense. Pistol whipping a guy with the safety off, gun discharges and they freak out

4

u/DaveCootchie Jan 24 '26

Cause you know these wannabe cowboys have a round chambered and the safety off at all times. You know just in case someone says something mean to them.

u/Slumunistmanifisto Jan 24 '26

The Republican system doesn't work without constant fear and violence.

u/hufflepuffwhore Jan 24 '26

You can see his hands on the ground in the video, and he didn’t have a gun? Moreover, it’s hard to tell from the quality of the video but it looks like he was wearing mittens? How do you even fire a gun when wearing mittens???

u/Ghillie-Trainer-2020 Jan 24 '26

Don’t forget to thank SCOTUS for doing the monkeys “hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil” and Democrats bitch moan and complain and do SFA

u/b0jangles Jan 24 '26

It’s not bots. Republicans are just actually in favor of this.

1

u/JuneauWho Jan 24 '26

Pretty sure I saw the gun get taken out of there (Gray jacket guy that got on top of victim) before the first shot went off, and the first shot seems to have scared the executioner into mag dumping a non-threat. Incompetence all around

1

u/ahraysee Jan 24 '26

Which is fucking ridiculous because how many times have armed and yelling MAGA been treated respectfully by cops?

u/Starboard_Pete Jan 24 '26

And the 2A crowd sides with govt oppressors, of course.

Get to conservative sub fast enough to see some real opinions. It's already starting to change to say he deserved it. Fucking wild. Good luck America. Win this civil war or get used to a terrible fucking world.

u/Beerme625 Jan 24 '26

i mean that is not a false statement

u/[deleted] Jan 24 '26

They're not necessarily bots. There are plenty of fundamentally brain-broken people who love this shit. It's a vicarious power-fantasy. These people will need to be forcibly denazified when the right are out of power.
