    All these ghouls in this sub defending the murderer need to do some serious soul searching, if they even have a shred of a soul left.

    Edit I’m not engaging with these trolls and bad faith actors. There are a thousand differences between this case and Kirk. Kirk was killed by a random person, Good was killed by a federal agent. Trump, Vance, Noem and others came out instantly and blatantly lied about what happened. Kirk was a professional troll known for vitriolic rhetoric, Good was some random mom who was standing up for her neighbors. Most liberals didn’t celebrate Kirk’s death, they were mostly just accurately quoting the awful shit he said and got smeared for doing so, while Conservatives are straight up gleeful about Good’s murder. This is such an evil and moronic comparison to make, it’s shameful and disgusting and if you think this is a fair point to make you’re a fucking ghoul and a monster.

    Didnt happen.

    who was killed

    Even if there was a crime committed there was no lawful justified use of force, just unlawful and unjustified use of force, and now someone is dead.

    Ironically enough one of your own is dead, she was a christian mom of 3 white woman. You can try and other her all you want, doesnt change the fact you twist yourself into pretzels to justify state sanctioned murder of US citizens, which ironically is more domestic terrorism than what Renee Good did.

    Same here. I worked at Good Neighbors then one day Yemi called a meeting to drop our wages 25%, increase the price of menu items, and bring back the tipping model. I expressed concern for this, along with three other coworkers. He fired the three of us the next day.

    13 points ExplanationUnique84

    I think I would've been there around that time. He started holding these "we're family" meetings when he did show up, disappear for a month, and there was a rush hire of people pretty much overnight. We called him the "invisible owner". But yeah, there was something about him that never seemed right. He'd bring local business owners in for dinner and when he'd step into the kitchen his face would totally change. I have worked tipped wage before and managed to make ends meet but at Good Neighbors I was working 40+ hours and had to choose what bills to pay. When I brought up the discrepancy they halved my hours and the management made my work life hell.

    If you'd like to reach out to me please feel free to! Between Good Neighbors and Wild Goose it was a mess and yemi talked his way out of any of us getting what we should've been paid or anything.

    Completely glosses over the fact the she did accelerate directly at him.

    parent root
    4 points Happymuffn

    It does. She seemed to me so distracted by his buddy, that I'd be surprised if she even saw him before hitting the gas. It wasn't as though she had any training about how to safely be accosted by masked thugs, whereas the officer very likely had training about how to safely approach a vehicle, that he did not choose to use.

    Regardless he had successfully removed himself from possible harm before repeatedly shooting to kill, rather than shooting to immobilize the vehicle. Shooting at the driver actually makes the vehicle more dangerous rather than less, as you might note in the way that the SUV careened into the parked car down the street afterward. How fortunate that he was out of danger or he would have killed himself as well.

    If you believe that Criminal Negligence and maybe Obstruction of a Peace Officer ought to carry the Death Penalty, and also that the Officer in question ought to be empowered to unilaterally make that judgement, and not an actual Judge or a Jury of her Peers; and then Execute that judgement, and also her, then all well and good. (That is rhetorical, that is not good at all).

    But if you think that rule of law should be respected, as you seem to, then you should, like us, be calling for an investigation and criminal indictment so that the officer's actions can be judged in a court of law. Various lawyers I've heard seem to think that he would not have a very good Self-Defense case for her killing.

    Or, put less precisely, "They (we) are protesting ICE murdering someone." And then getting away with it.

    Sure, then they should be going after the employers right? But we're not seeing ICE hitting Tyson meat packing plants are we? Nope. So it really is NOT about dealing with the problem.

    If they truly wanted to curb illegal immigration they would make the penalty for hiring them so severe nobody would do it. But they're not, that's not even in the discussion. So what gives?

    Also lets point out the fact the US has systematically suppressed the countries south of us from developing, including but not limited to installing dictators in various countries.

    So, the facts are:

    1. We've created the problems that a lot of the countries south of us have.

    2. We're not going after the employers and businesses that hire these people.

    Doesn't seem like a genuine effort to actual deal with the problem does it?

    parent root
    -8 points Drew1231

    They should be going after the employers and employees.

    If they did that, you’d accuse them of starving immigrants. They should do it. This has been a common criticism against Trump from the right as well.

    The USA also took a dictator out, which I’m sure we can agree is a phenomenal thing.

    I agree with you to an extent, and I’m not even that opposed to a reasonable level of immigration from South America. I’d even support a mild amnesty program for some workers without criminal records.

    Moderate solutions are not on the table at all unfortunately.

    Culturally isolated communities that do not share basic western values, are net negatives on the system, and engage in barbaric practices like FGM need to go back entirely.

    7 points ImDukeCaboom

    If they did that, you’d accuse them of starving immigrants.

    Don't even pretend to know what I would say in a hypothetical situation. That's just a nonsense argument that immediately undermines any point you are trying to make.

    The US taking out the 1 guy doesn't even fucking come close to the damage we have caused south of us. You need to go read some history. But let's play that game - Trump also pardoned the Honduras president, one of the biggest drug traffickers in modern times. So tit for tat, that already was canceled out.

    Also FGM is very rare and isolated to pretty much only indigenous tribes in South America. It doesn't really exist outside those very specific isolated communities, and those aren't the people trying to immigrate, so that's a nonstarter.

    A lot of the world considers circumcision to be genital mutilation and that's widely practiced in the US. Ooopsy on that argument.

    The fact ICE isn't hitting major employers of illegals demonstrates it really doesn't have to do with dealing with the problem.
