I don't keep up with current events so I've no idea what's being discussed here. As a point of order, however:

He was an ICU nurse at a VA hospital, watch the video of him recently eulogizing one of his longtime patients.

Emotional manipulation is literally the first tactic to which both progressives and mainstream media outlets (but I repeat myself) resort when they're spinning a bullshit narrative. They did it with "Maryland man," Covid, St. George of Our Lady of Fentanyl and countless others besides. This video did a pretty good job of covering the issue.

The fact this guy was apparently an ICU nurse who delivered a touching eulogy for a patient means literally nothing in the context of the shooting being discussed, particularly if he was actively engaged in subversion and/or obstruction of ICE agents performing their legal duties.

To be clear, I'm not saying that's what happened.

Again, I don't know anything about the event being discussed and, frankly, I don't care. I simply felt it pertinent to draw attention to the rampant (ab)use of pathos by bad faith actors who are fully cognizant of the fact most progressives wear their hearts on their sleeves and are easily distracted and misled by a well-crafted sob story.

@Stigma As before, I've watched frame by frame from every available angle before assuming much less concluding anything. This time, ICE/ Border patrol officers pumped about 10 rounds into the back of a guy who was on the ground and had already been relieved of his legal concealed carry firearm. At NO point did he threaten the officers. His last act was to attempt to help up a woman who the officers knocked to the icy ground. He had only a phone in one hand and never reached for much less brandished his weapon. I watched a parade of administration spokespeople attack his character and describe him as aggressively attacking the officers when video clearly shows the opposite. He was an ICU nurse at a VA hospital, watch the video of him recently eulogizing one of his longtime patients. It positively breaks my brain watching the 2A, Jan 6 apologist, Don't tread on me, Government overreach crowd ALL rushing to support this murder and the Feds who committed it, and blame and vilify the victim. Note that the scope has crept to murdering straight white men with impunity in the name of "protecting America from worst of the worst violent criminal illegal immigrants." How far will each Trump supporter stay firmly committed to ride or die on this crazy train???
