Border Patrol Agent Aiming 40mm Launcher At My Head - ICE Protest 1/31
Picture from Saturday’s protest at the Portland ICE facility. An agent fixed his 40mm launcher at my head twice, despite me very obviously being a photographer.
Don’t catch you slippin now
'Murica sure does love it some war. War over here, war over there. War all over and everywhere. War on brown people. War on drugs. War on civility. War on guns. War is hell? Nah, not for 'murica, War is opportunity for 'murica prosperity.
As a brown I fully agree, but also look back at history and think… don’t all dominant empires pull the same shit?
Yes they do, but people are just mad at America specifically right now so they just pretend we’re the only country that has ever done anything evil
No one pretends that the US is the only country doing anything bad… Arguably China and Russia for instance are still a lot worse when it comes to human right violations.
But it is a lot more pressing that USA is turning to fascism/authoritarianism since it will then be two global anti-democratic Superpowers not only one.
And before any .ml users jump the gun. Idgaf about how you think China is so great, keep it to yourselves.
Don’t worry. Israel is being a real piece of shit too, in collaboration with the ole pedophile.
You’re right, but America is funding the genocide so we’re still getting the shit for it. And don’t get me wrong, we deserve it when we deserve it, but there’s accounts out there unironically asserting that America is the root of all evil in the world and that it’s only America that is bad
Well said. Everyone wants to shit on the USA but no one wants to help.
The US needs to fix its own shit.
I’m certain this won’t become a global issue at all.
Good thing that wasn’t the attitude towards Germany in WWII.
It WAS the attitude until it started invading its neighbours.
And what has the US, the country with the most powerful military in the world, been threatening to do lately?
People don’t realize most of the world turned a blind eye to hitlers atrocities and viewpoints (some even embraced them) it’s only when Hitler became aggressively expansive on their territories when the world decided to step in…
The US didn’t join WW2 for 2.5 YEARS after it began, and Germany had to declare war on the US first. The US only declared war on Japan.
Yes, but the US wasn’t the only country fighting against them.
I can’t do much about the Roman Empire, crusades, Conquistadors, Putin or Winnie Pooh. I can criticise them, just as well as Israel’s crimes and the US’. The US is what I have the most contact with and what you’ll hear me complaining about most, but not the only thing.
Nah, don’t worry dude. America is just on the same level as China, Russia, North Korea and others now: not an enemy, not an ally. A potential threat, with a dictator at its head.
This is hardly true. What bullshit, loser, victim mentality.
This sounds like one of those raps that absolutely anyone from a channel 5 video spits unprompted
Don’t forget the war on Christmas.
Be careful. Cameras are apparently guns now according to dhs
Oooo shots fired! No, for real… murderous agents fired shots.
The resistance and pressure as well as non-compliance Minneapolis has been doing is very good. The only addition is I’d add that they need to regularly guard their neighborhoods, armed. That they have contact with others in multiple ways to warn of ICE in the area. Maybe not armed but when a task force of ICE is found, they have a task force of citizens there to document, resist, and just be general interference. Far too many people talk about resisting and violence against ICE to mean lone wolf shooting. That’s not what we’re calling for.
Same as it ever was. Same as it ever was.
Don’t catch you slippin’ now
Look what I’m whippin’ now
This is America (woo)
The dissonance is amazing. There are ads for murcan tourism playing on tv here ( Australia ). The ads depict national parks, playing children, scenes of beauty. Then you see the real murca in these photos. The scenes from ‘Fallout’ are closer to reality than the tv ads. Makes you wonder who they think they’re fooling with the ads. We laugh at them ( the ads, not the murcans) the same way you laugh at old popeye cartoons.
I mean, both are true. That’s why some people are saying not to worry about the water on this sinking ship. They think that only if everything is terrible for every single part of the country for everyone will it count, and then say “well it’s not that bad”
Yeah, the Kremlin is having a great time being continually entertained by the slow death of a country. Yeah, they love to show the dissonance, the hypocrisy, and to say the end of the West is coming according to Aleksandr Dugin.
It’s crazy how much, even now, American liberals still can’t admit fault without resorting to Judeo-Bolshevick style conspiracy theories.
And just so you know, most of the world is happy to see the evil empire collapsing, not just those dang ruskies.
And the Canadian government STILL hasn’t put out a travel warning to the US.
We laugh at them ( the ads, not the murcans)
Nah, laugh at the Seppos, they voted for this.
This is a cool photo. Did you submit it to anything? I don’t mean cool as in “oh look a military man, go USA”. I mean it’s cool as in look at warzone trump turned it into.
looks straight out of call of duty 33
Oh it will turn into one if they turn back soon.
Not my photo, original photo came from the linked reddit post
fat, pickup truck drivers have been dying to cosplay without going to the middle east. getting some domestic play time in just makes sense, no harm, no foul, boys will be boys etc
also some “im one of the good ones” poc that joined ice. alex’s murderers were both hispanic people.
that shit is endlessly mad to me that these people end up taking these positions and can’t see their own reflection
im not surprised though, since alot of them are christian conservatives
This should definitely make it into a history book, if we still have them.
America isn’t the only source of history books.
Childish Gambino was pulling his punches.
Modern equipment, same old brownshirts.

We’re going to have to brand the text of the 1st, 2nd, and 4th amendments on them
3rd, 5th, 8th, 10th, 14th, likely the 22nd…
Don’t forget the 6th
Just put the entire human rights charter on there

someone in arkansas or oklahoma is reading this thinking “this will never happen in my state because we’re white and racist”
and they would be right.
For now
How about ohio?
A Gallup poll taken the day after the shootings reportedly showed that 58 percent of respondents blamed the students, 11 percent blamed the National Guard, and 31 percent expressed no opinion.
An interaction I had on a documentary about the massacre yesterday:
So if the person you were interacting with gets pulled over for speeding, for instance, I’m sure they’ll totally understand the cop immediately shooting them in the face. They were breaking the law after all and we can’t tolerate that.
Rural Nevada says the same thing too.
No, this is P
