    Make court justice unreliable and folks will simply resort to street justice.

      Hey that is what the KKK did … vigilantism.

      And of course the X-Men … another popular vigilante group

        Sort of. It’s kind of like the “cult” vs “sect” vs “religion” distinction; it’s just a question of scale.

        So when it’s only a couple inbred, racist fuckwits, it’s “vigilantism”. When it’s half the population of the country, it’s “civil unrest”.

        The fucking downvotes on this. Lmao. That’s exactly what the KKK did.

        And not only them, obviously. White supremacist vigilantism has been a problem for a very long time.

        They even brought out a noose during January 6th to reference their favorite how-to book! The Turner Diaries. “Day of the rope” and all.

        I love how the fediverse pretends they’re smarter than other social media and you can’t help yourselves with the petty downvotes. Reddit leaks.

      I think she’s trying to chant “one of us gobble gobble” like the rest of the circus freaks.

        It was just printed on her podium. Doesnt matter where it comes from. Nasty shit coming from the head of a powerful institution. Maybe it was a bad move leaving those laying around.

            No it doesnt, not verbatim. It may capture Nazi ethos and actions but it is not a direct quote from what I can dig up. A similar spanish quote was apparently used by Spanish fascists in the 1930s, “Uno de los nuestros vale por todos los vuestros”, which is pretty much the same thing. But the factoid everyone seems to be passing around about an SS Officer being killed is incorrect.

              Well shit. Color me surprised, the internet lied to me.

              That’s said, if that’s how they feel, I will agree. We will do the same. Every fascist must be removed from the earth.

                It may be hard to believe but fascists do have a place in the world. Its at the bottom of the Mariana Trench with no equipment.

                Here’s a historical analysis of the question I thought was interesting. Even though the idea that the Nazis coined the specific phrase is baseless, they did threaten and practice that sort of retaliation.

    What about a civil suit?

    Maybe her family could make him and his family poor for life.

    It doesn’t substitute for Ms. Good’s life in any way, but it does a mote of justice.

    The state will have to file if the attorneys want to be re elected.

    They talk about investigating, there is nothing to investigate we have multiple videos. The only thing to investigate is the law and how it plays out with the federal agent in a state.

      Never mind reelection; they need to file if they want to continue to exist in society at all. That point needs to be impressed upon them, emphatically.

    And this sets precedent and sends a message to all ICE that they can just shoot innocent civilians in the face with no consequences.

    Welcome to the new FSA - Fascist States of America!

    All hail the land of the pedophile fascists! 🫡

    Maybe Americans should do another protest march, that will surely make Trump think twice… whether he should make an AI vid of him pissing or shitting on all of the Americans.

    Also make sure to dress up as inflatable Pokémons, because that really portrays how unsatisfied and serious you all are.
