Getting pretty serious now. Might see a change in who’s in power!

Iran protests: Medics describe overwhelmed hospitals as demonstrations enter second week - BBC News

There were signs authorities were intensifying their crackdown as protests entered their second week.

Sounds like they might be using bird shot to control the protesters. Eye wounds and head injuries.

Perhaps they are trying to avoid Trump making good of his threat to intervene if they use lethal force like they probably would like to do.

I ususally post political memes in the Political Humor forum but this one pretty much explains the root cause of the late woman's demise...

I think that’s because we live in the GREATEST COUNTRY EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So we tend to run our mouths!!!!

I think there's a simple explanation.

Because we are advanced and wealthy, the World expects us to help the rest of the developing countries. The problem is, Americans become tired of giving their hard earned tax dollars to craphole countries that continue doing the same things that made them beg for American help in the first place.

Been quite a few warnings in the different news reports I have read , saying that when the Internet is taken down the government forces go into violence/kill mode....how it's been in previous protests.....

Watched an interview last night they mentioned that star link is helping sidestep some of this.

I will now only refer to OH as Dr. OH just as we were required to refer to Jill potatoe head as Dr. Jill potato head. I offer sincere apologies for my past transgressions of not realizing the vast wisdom and knowledge of the esteemed Dr.

Such gaslighting from desperate, lying, seditious POS Dems. Both the idiot mayor and Tampon Tim doubling down on telling us what we see in the shooting video is not really what we see in the shooting video.

If it were only that bad.

This Somali daycare, medical facilities, Medicare, Medicaid scandal is the typical Democrat kickback and vote buying scheme.

Similar to the world wide USAID, NGO scam.

Democrats fund a non existent or loosely existent NGO always with untouchable names as starving or uneducated children. (It’s usually “for the children”).

A portion is kicked backed to dark campaign finances or politicians indirectly. The person running the scheme for the politicians gets rich, the politician gets that groups vote and a tidy percentage is kicked backed to, in Minnesota’s case the Minneapolis local and state politicians.

Billions of federal tax subsidies have been sent to Somali “businesses” and there is evidence that the business was a shell corp for Democrats.

This shooting takes the public limelight off the scam but luckily the hounds are already loose on the trail of scammers. Some Somali fall guys will go to jail. No Democrat will be harmed financially or by the justice system. And zero of the billions bilked will be returned.

In all fairness, they are saying the same thing. It just depends on the video one is looking at. Add to that the AI generated/modified ones from both sides that are circulating no one knows what is real and goes with their biases.

Every time I get pissed about our 2 Party system (it is definitely flawed), I remind myself that the parliamentary system found in most of Europe and in Canada sucks just as bad... and that none of us seem very happy with our governments..

Sadly I dont know what the solution is..

The only thing worse than the US Senate would be not having it.

I don’t really like getting into this sort of thing on the internet but the Supreme Court has ruled that an officer cannot put himself in front of a vehicle and then claim self defense when the vehicle starts to move towards him. On several occasions. In slow motion, all three shots were fired after the agent was to the side of the vehicle. He seemed to lean his chest over the vehicle as a way to intentionally make his body cam look like he was in more danger than he was, and the wheels were turned away from him.

In the full video you can see her making a U turn, one ICE vehicle cuts her off and she waves the next one on, but instead of ICE driving past her, they get out and move towards her rapidly and tell her (whom they have no arrest jurisdiction over) that she’s detained. She, in fear, tries to run.

Police officers are supposed to be trained not to stand in front of vehicles, and that they cannot shoot at someone attempting to run away. In the video you can see the agent was not harmed at all and Trump lied out of his face saying that he was in the hospital claiming he got run over. The jerk who murdered her can be seen in some footage having what seems to be a congratulatory celebration with the other agents a couple minutes later, like they were all happy they got to kill someone.

There’s no defending it if you know anything about law. If a regular police officer did that they would be in jail.

I have seen no evidence whatsoever that she was “following ICE around”, I HAVE seen evidence that she lives in that neighborhood. But even if she was following ICE around, that doesn’t make it legally acceptable to shoot her. It doesn’t even make it legally acceptable to detain her. ICE is not police. They cannot legally detain US citizens for simply making a god damned U turn, or even for following them around.

I am disgusted by that officer, and he deserves heavy prison time.

I’m not a democrat, I just have my eyes open when I watch the videos.

It’s easy to watch a video and decide what should have been done by the officer and by the agitator.

I’m sure they both wish they had made different decisions that day.


Similar to watching a quarterback throw to the wrong receiver on video. Unless you’re the one standing there and seeing 7 foot giants coming your way it’s not the same decision-making process.

Unfortunately the legacy media, social media and many greasy politicians are the ones who should be taking the blame for that shooting. Ratcheting up the rhetoric. Getting mentally unhinged people to put themselves in harms way for their political causes. Pitting people against each other purposely.

Go back to the root cause of why those two people met that day. Politicians flood the country to skew the future census to gain seats in Congress and voters. Local communities are overwhelmed in the medical, welfare and education systems.
Law-enforcement tries to remove the illegal aliens and politicians give people with no purpose and mental issues a cause.

So once again the people who should be bearing the blame slip out the back door and a $70k per year front line law-enforcement officer and a mentally disturbed woman’s lives are ruined and or taken.

It’s easy to watch a video and say what an agent should have done because it’s an easy decision. Civilians are expected to behave erratically. Officers, agents, and military, are supposed to be trained to handle those situations. Officers are TRAINED to not purposefully put themselves in front of vehicles as a way to prevent someone from leaving. Because civilians fight or flight can kick in at any moment.

The woman did absolutely nothing deserving death, the agent made all of the wrong decisions here. The full 5 minute video clearly shows she was not doing anything wrong, made a U turn, and a vehicle drove right past her. She was not blocking the road in the slightest. She had not broken any laws. She was in fear for her life, but even still turned the wheels of the vehicle to make sure not to hit any officer.

I’m sorry but there’s no decision she made that could be justified as a bad decision that lead to her even being arrested, nonetheless murdered in cold blood on the street.

She lived in that neighborhood, they met because ICE was gathering there and abusing power they do not constitutionally have by attempting to arrest a US citizen for charges they have no right to arrest over.

100%.. And I am disgusted that some here are making fun about this.. The ICEhole comitted murder.

This is from an article:

Trump said Renee Nicole Good “viciously ran over” the officer before he shot in Minneapolis this week. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem argued Good had “weaponized” her car and that the officer had been struck and required a trip to the hospital.


Videos from the shooting show that Good did not knock down the officer, whose legs were to the side of the SUV as it moved by him while he fired. He walked away from the scene unassisted.

I saw multiple videos of the shooter walking unassisted as well.

As long as the administration lies or exaggerates about the event, people are not going to believe anything they say.
