"It's like Call of Duty. Pretty cool huh?"- "One officer responded mockingly as he walked away, telling them: "Boo hoo"

I am watching what is happening in Minneapolis on Ali Velshi and one of the ICE officers (off camera) literally says, “It’s like Call of Duty. Pretty cool huh?” as they shoot whatever it is they are shooting. Agents walking around, guns unholstered for no reason. This is insanity

“Boo hoo”

They’re not just killing people, they’re taunting the public they’re terrorizing after they do it.

They have no conscience and are wholly incapable of feeling empathy, compassion or remorse.

They are dangerous!

This has to end. These malformed idiots are acting out their violent fantasies and we are paying for it. With our treasure and with our blood.

THIS HAS TO END.

well before the shooting. Agents isolated him and kept him engaged as reinforcements arrived, then they surrounded him and on cue beat him down to the ground. One agent took his gun when he was incapacitated while the others crowded around to obscure what was happening and another agent pulls a gun and starts shooting. It wouldn’t surprise me if the guy who took the gun yelled “clear” once he got it.

It looks to me like an elaborate setup, like with Renee Good.
