They went to a judge and got a warrant to investigate the scene - a public area, that’s already unusual - and the brownshirts refused.
The level of bullshit went up a lot more just then.
Where is the arrest for obstruction?
Anonymous has investigated the gun …
Trump shared images of the gun that immigration officials said was recovered and said: “What is that all about? Where are the local Police? Why weren’t they allowed to protect ICE Officers?”
Note that these are the same Republicans who have lectured us for decades about people’s right to carry guns legally.
Also, the image they circulated seems to have been on the internet for a while. It’s not this man’s gun:

Apparently that is showing up on the reddit thread because someone posted it there after these events. Unless you can link the specific picture on reddit that is older.
But in any case the video shows ICE agents disarmed the man (by taking the weapon from his waistband) before murdering him, so we do know that they have the gun.
It shows it is older by the date on the 2nd pic … 5 days ago.
That’s the age of the thread, the OP was posted 5 days ago. It doesn’t mean reddit didn’t give Google a picture that was posted later in the thread when Google went looking for the photo. It seems to be a weekly thread (which would be pinned) so it seems likely that people would continue commenting days after its posting.
Someone posts a weekly mega thread that stays up a week, with comments made throughout the week. -> Someone posts this photo after the ICE fucks murder the guy they disarmed in said mega thread -> You ask Google to look for the photo online -> It shows you the mega thread posted 5 days ago, because it now contains the image
Not that I don’t think ICE isn’t that incompetent and willing to lie. But I’d need to see a link to the actual photo on reddit as proof that it’s older.
Not just circulated. DHS posted the photo on their Twitter in a post claiming the victim was a violent assailant and claiming the weapon in the picture was theirs.

It’s already a civil war, the only thing now is to see who the belligerents are.
And people want to have the balls to tell me I’m in the moral wrong for saying we should be fucking blasting on sight by now.
I know it’ll kick off some terrible awful shit; but it’s either rip the bandaid off now and get it started on our terms, or wait until there are far fewer of us because we just keep letting them execute us without cause or consequence.
They should have all been lynched in the protest yesterday
Sabotage is also an option, and can be nasty in winter. Make it untenable for them to stay. Keep them exposed to weather for long enough and they’ll start quitting. Break windows, break heaters, spray water on everything, etc.
Small broken pieces of porcelain are very effective at breaking car window glass when thrown.
Spark plug insulators, anything hardened ceramic, and some types of volcanic gravel all work. Anything harder than glass that comes to a sharp point.
This is the way.
Unorganized and random violence will just justify the insurrection act and martial law.
In minecraft servers what you want to do is target high profile individuals, that has historically been the best way.
You still need to disrupt operations on the ground. Logistical disruption does a lot more damage at the lowest level here. If they can’t get goons together they pose significantly less threat in the first place.
Motor oil balloons on windshields, broken windows, flat tires, tailpipe obstructions, anything to slow down movement and coordination.
Dang! Oh WELL we TRIED!
