@thereconning@shuffolution@Cristia82104533@ianmiles I don’t know why it’s so hard to just say he should not have been killed w/out qualifying it. No unbiased person will look at that video and come to the conclusion that, “yep, anyone who does that should be shot and killed.”
@Ryan97340270537@shuffolution@Cristia82104533@ianmiles What does that have to do with him being killed. He never drew the firearm from his waistband. It’s ok to admit that the shooting was unjustified. You can still be a Republican.
@Happyli912832@Cristia82104533@ianmiles If that were your brother would you dismiss him being shot as, “oh well, that’s the dog of war?” I doubt it b/c your partisan politics won’t allow you split from the party line.
@Snapp3rH3ad@Cristia82104533@ianmiles So in the U.S. if you break a taillight of a federal law enforcement vehicle and spit on a federal agent they get to kill you? Sounds a bit harsh to me.
@Ryan97340270537@shuffolution@Cristia82104533@ianmiles What seems short is the ability to separate an ill-advised act with the misuse of deadly force. Him having a firearm in his waistband doesn’t mean agents get to shoot and kill him.
@Ryan97340270537@shuffolution@Cristia82104533@ianmiles Ok he brought the firearm. I agree that it was a bad idea. He never took it from his waistband. He didn’t brandish it. Do you think he deserved to be shot and killed because he had a firearm on his person?
@SWC121272@Cristia82104533@ianmiles It’s typical that @SWC121272 blocked me when he could no longer come up with an argument to justify his nonsense. At some point ppl have to understand that’s it’s ok to think for themselves. You don’t always have to toe the party line.
@SWC121272@Cristia82104533@ianmiles So at what point in your description of events was deadly force authorized? Don’t get so wrapped up in partisan politics. It’s ok to say his slaying was not justified. You can have your own opinion that’s not influenced by political affiliation.
@shuffolution@Cristia82104533@ianmiles So you think having a gun in your waistband & resisting arrest means automatic death penalty? Had he been your brother you would have a different opinion, unless you’re so wrapped up in partisan politics that you would justify the death of your own brother in those circumstances.
@SWC121272@Cristia82104533@ianmiles Your definition of a “true” conservative is someone who toes the party line & ignores the truth. I’m conservative but I’m also honest & have integrity. Shooting an unarmed man who was not attacking anyone is wrong. You know it but your party affiliation won’t allow you to say it.
@Cristia82104533@ianmiles I’m a conservative and I’m curious. When you watch the video do you actually see him attack ICE? We all lose credibility when we gaslight the other side by making statements that aren’t true for the sake of winning an argument. If that were your brother wouldn’t that bother you?
