  2. It's fine, I've said what I wanted on the matter
  3. And just for some added context, this is another example of the kind of behaviour ICE is resorting to in Minneapolis (tl;dw: 17-year old yells "fuck you" at ICE officer, who proceeds to slam him to the ground and apprehend him; DHS claims the kid was guilty of "assault" even though he was never charged with anything and was just thrown out of an ICE van a few blocks down the road) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dnn8JxICAEM There have been multiple reports of brown-skinned people getting arbitrarily arrested and abused by ICE in Minneapolis only to be released bruised and bloodied a couple of minutes later. ICE's detention camps have faced claims of sexual abuse and mistreatment since 2010 and 32 people died in the camps in 2025 alone. The people of Minneapolis have been harrassed and bullied and their community has been thrown into chaos and lawlessness, and the president who has spurred it all on is only escalating matters further with inflammatory rhetoric about insurrection acts and lighting cities on fire, and I'm supposed to act surprised and indignant when people are hesitant to comply with ICE agents?
  4. @BTGBullseye I'll concede the point regarding medical assistance after the shooting, but a lot of that video wastes time on irrelevancies (of course Renee Good wasn't complying with the officer; last I checked that's not punishable by death. Also the only thing that the excuse of a past event involving the killer getting dragged along by a vehicle tells me is that he shouldn't have been on duty if that was clouding his judgment in such a horrible way) and on speculation about what a court of law might do, which is a moot point so long as the killer doesn't face justice. Wouldn't you agree that based on the available information there's enough ground to put this man on trial, so that his culpability can be determined in an impartial manner? Why isn't the evidence of the case being shared with the state justice department, and why did the president and DHS secretary immediately call the victim a terrorist and professional agitator without proof? Why did the vice president lie about no bullets being fired through the side window? A citizen was shot and killed by a government agent; don't you think it sets a bad precedent if the circumstances regarding this event aren't brought to light and if the killer is treated with as much protection by the federal government as he has been? Would you be as forgiving if this had happened during the Biden presidency and the victim was a Trump supporter?
  5. @BTGBullseye You're right, it's not comparable at all: Charlie Kirk was murdered by some random lunatic who was later arrested and will be brought to justice, whereas Renee Good was murdered by a federal agent whom the government has taken under its protection while the only charges are now being made against the victim's family. If the truth is so obviously in the killer's favour, why isn't evidence being shared with Minnesota's state justice department and why do government officials and their aligned media feel the need to smear the victim with baseless claims as much as they have? Why did ICE keep people who wanted to apply medical help to the victim away from the crash site? How did Good "attack" the killer when every video of the event clearly shows that she was steering away from him? Why did the killer ignore basic law enforcement guidelines that forbid shooting at a moving vehicle, and how is it self-defence to shoot through the side window of a car? You can see in the video that the impact knocked the killer to the side, so if as you say the first shot was fired afterwards, he should no longer have been in danger by that point, so with what intent did he fire his weapon then?
  6. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FyStPztM7eo Can we expect a similar level of outrage from Republicans over the summary execution of a US citizen by a federal stormtrooper and the government's attempts to hide the evidence of that fact, or are we to take it that murder is a virtue to the ruling party so long as it happens to its political opponents on the ground?
  7. Maybe he'll find a different outlet once David Ellison fulfils his greatest wish and orders the next Star Trek show to be about how the Terran Empire were the misunderstood good guys all along
  8. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-GMkeFI8rQ Adelita Grijalva (D) won a special election for Arizona's 7th congressional district on September 23. Up until now, the procedure followed by the 119th US Congress has been to formally install new House representatives the day after their respective special elections, regardless of whether or not the House is in session, but as of October 14 Grijalva has still not been sworn in, with House speaker Mike Johnson having repeatedly postponed Grijalva's inauguration. Johnson's first excuse, claiming without precedent that he needed to wait until the election results were formally certified (despite the results not being in dispute and her opponent having already conceded the race), pushed the swearing in date past the start of a House recess which Johnson himself has continuously extended and which he has since used as an (equally unprecedented) excuse to prevent Grijalva from taking her rightful place as an elected official. Normally I'd say that any suspected motive is immaterial when it comes to the Speaker of the House, representing the party controlling all branches of government, refusing to seat a democratically elected representative and sabotaging the democratic process in such a brazen, shameless manner, especially considering the precedent it would set if the Republicans are allowed to get away with this. However, considering the topic of this thread and how much the late great Charlie Kirk cared about unveiling the truth about Jeffrey Epstein and his clients (at least until his political allies instructed him to drop the case like a hot turd, after which it required a massive audience backlash for him to backpedal on his claim of being done talking about Epstein), I think it's prudent to bring up the fact that if sworn in, Grijalva's signature would be the last needed to pass a discharge petition, forcing a vote in Congress on the release of the Epstein files. She has pledged to sign it but Mike Johnson, the trusted Guardian Of Pedophiles, won't let her. I can't believe Republicans would tarnish the legacy of Charlie Kirk like this.
  9. When will I be determined to be a foreign terrorist organization...
  10. Nobody is. Ironically, other people have already begun pointing to Israel as a supposed culprit of the Kirk assassination because I guess the right couldn't be content using this as an excuse to persecute just one minority group. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6W5PItOQFQ
  11. I appreciate the concern but I doubt I'll be too broken up about the fate of my account on this website when I'm decomposing in a mass grave ten years from now
  12. @BTGBullseye Hey! What is your opinion on the CFPB being gutted by the new US administration so that companies can keep getting away with the shit described in the OP?
  13. Elon Musk's vision for America: (which I suppose is still more rosy than Donald Trump's vision for Europe, but uh yeah this man is not your friend)
