@heat_bender Not too late to delete. "I'm sad my competitor is spending money on an event and won't let me show up to poach" is insane

@CathyYoung63 Candidly I don't see what he said that is out-of-bounds enough to refuse to engage. His views might be uncomfortable to engage with, but are representative of much of the country

@justalexoki Dad sent me a forty (!!) minute YouTube video of an AI-generated wise professor type spouting off his preferred political opinions about Venezuela. It’s so over

@antoniogm Preach. I’ve quit a few times (for a month or more) and come back to the loving embrace. Coffee and a Zyn in the morning is unmatched, unfortunately

@J_fassler I think we need 100x more jasmine croketts. Jasmine Crockett clones should 100% populate the party. We need to be Crockettmaxxing to win elections

@JSJdarling Lmaoooo yes, do please keep propping up terrible candidates for the sake of respect and admiration. Please do fill the party with more of her. She has mass appeal, I promise!

@GioJohnson_ It’s so fantastic that dems are going to bully Bowen to the extent that you guys run a generationally bad candidate in Texas lmao

@owenbroadcast Spent a college summer interviewing anarchists and squatters in Berlin for research. I’d imagined them as conscientious objectors to capitalism; mostly they were just angry pricks.

@AstasiaMyers VCs like you are a large part of the problem of the ecosystem. You are speaking in beige platitudes having never built a company. Makes me think less of Felicis seeing this slop

I approach this from a moderate perspective. I am not liberal, I am not conservative, and I am not MAGA.

Whether you disagree or agree with ICE, one thing is indisputably true. ICE was sent there to conduct a legal investigation.

From what I’ve seen, her wife is part of an anti-ICE group that was actively trying for weeks to interfere with and impede their investigations. They didn’t just happen to be there, she knew agents were in the area and decided to insert herself into the situation. She dropped off her wife minutes before to stand outside of the vehicle and record the interaction. If you were simply trying to turn your vehicle around, why would you drop someone off to record it? This leads me to believe they were actively seeking out a conflict.

After inserting herself into the situation and being approached by law enforcement, when a federal agent tells you to get out of your vehicle, you cannot just decide you want to leave and drive away. Any lawyer would advise you to treat them with respect, record the situation, don’t say anything, and fight any wrongdoing in a court of law. This situation was escalated when she decides to put her vehicle in drive to flee the scene striking the officer while doing so.

Whether it was her intent to hit the agent or not, that is what occurred as a result of her choosing to ignore a command from a federal agent and attempt to flee the scene. I find it reasonable that someone standing in-front of the vehicle of a person who is not complying and driving toward them, with enough force to lose traction on ice, would be in fear of their safety and forced to make a split second decision. I don’t personally think I would have shot her and I don’t believe she deserved to die. I do believe she wasn’t just some innocent bystander and purposely created a tense situation where it can be reasonably argued he was acting in self defense.

It’s incredibly sad and ICE agents certainly need better training from other situations I’ve seen. It’s wild how many of us are seeing the same footage and walking away with completely different views on what occurred.

I’ve done my best to approach this objectively. My best advice is if you think they are poorly trained dangerous people then don’t insert yourself into a situation seeking out conflict and comply with law enforcement.

I’m open for discussion and will not judge for your opinion. Do you agree or disagree with me? If you disagree, where am I off base and what am I missing?
