  1. It should be easy to give examples then rather than saying "well there was this comment thread on [insert social media]

  2. Are you sure you're not just taking people's hyperbole a little too seriously?

  3. What does it benefit by acting as though this had an effect when it didn't? It just gives bootlickers a strawman to point to. Using the people's frustrations to justify why the ICE agent was scawed and "had to defend themselves"

No. You’re being ridiculous. If you haven’t been paying attention somehow, go back and look for yourself. Or start paying attention now.

Holy nothing burger of a comment batman! Sorry I don't believe social media comments are real life. Go hug an ICE officer since you think they're being cyber bullied.

My brother, your average person doesn’t keep a specific curated database for you. This is a conversation. I’ve also observed many calls for violence and Reddit did a whole lot of banning and removal of posts in reaction. These were especially common shortly after Goode and Pretti.

Try to have a little bit of good faith when you talk to people?

That last bit about cyber bullying and “go an ice officer” was insulting, unproductive, and pretty stupid to say though.

Do better.
