It's a plain death threat. What I wouldn't give to have all the internal memos that are no doubt cheering on the bloodshed to be leaked.

He's at minimum suggesting that if you're seen as impeding them in any way, bad things will happen to you.

Which is literally the exact attitude that leads to this continuing and continuing to get worse. Fucking horrendous attitude for someone with authority to have. But that field attracts people who hold attitudes like that, and it's why no one should ever trust the police.

I'm not going to dox myself but I had some really horrible shit happen to people in my life due to a cop. He recently tried to "make amends" by acting like it never happened and he admitted his dad was a "dirty cop". Which I took as a sign that he was really talking about himself. He used his power as a LEO to fuck lives up. And I despise him for it. I do not think that's atypical at all.

They're a paramilitary force beholden only to the Donald Trump. They are very literally akin to the SA. No they are not beholden to any laws. They are only beholden to Trump.

ICE has killed much more than one person. The only reason she's getting so much widespread attention is because she's a blonde, white, conventionally attractive citizen.

Not to minimize her death though, everyone is right to be outraged. I just want to point out that their other victims also deserve to be remembered.

Should, yes, but won't.... sadly.

First thing that comes to mind is to host your own jitsi server and record to that. I may just give it a go now.

Well for now until they disable the Internet you could just start live streaming. There is the one app designed for police encounters that connects you to a lawyer but it's a subscription and IDK what they can do about ICE, Attorney Shield.

I use syncthing for this exact purpose. Its p2p, so it requires no hosting experience, and can sync to any number of private or public devices. Just sync your main camera folder to any (ideally always-on) PC, laptop, a secondary phone or your friends/families devices.

mp4 files generally get corrupted if the recording isnt properly ended, so i have my camera app set up so that it starts a new file every minute or so. That way even if my phone is destroyed/snatched, the last clip that makes it to safety is pretty recent.

Stream live to (insert platform here)

There used to be an ACLU app for 16 states that immediately sent the video the yourself and ACLU whenever it stopped recording.

Violent rebellion is almost definitely the only way we escape from this hell

The right has made it extremely clear that they are not in it for actual civility, or creating a coherent society. The right are here because they want to torture and hurt others, they want to rape and murder and torment freely without punishment, because they're deranged, demented sadists.

You CANNOT civilize with that kind of person, no amount of talking is going to convince them to sit down and think about principle.

Not true. That's not how jurisdiction works. They are lying.

Anybody who shoots a Republican or ICE will always have me voting "Not Guilty" as it's a clear case of Self Defense to me. I will hang that jury til I'm removed or they vote my way.

And no I do not care in what circumstances a Republican's or ICE terrorist's life comes to end, even if that means they were sleeping in bed when their home or hotel burned down. Melt 'em.
