The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

We have noticed how often ICE storm troopers can shoot/kill people, apparently without consequences. Do rent-a-cops working for an ICE contractor enjoy the same immunity? We will have a clue if this case is taken away from the local police, to be "investigated" by ICE.

Off-duty employee at Colorado ICE facility arrested for shooting protester

An employee of a company that runs an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Colorado is under arrest after shooting and injuring a woman on Thursday evening.

On the evening of the shooting, the police say protesters had blocked the entrance to the facility. So, Booth and other employees were waiting in their cars until they could get in. The police say the two women "initiated a verbal confrontation" and took photos of the employees' vehicles before walking away.

That's when Booth got his pistol and fired a single shot at the women, striking one. He then drove off, the police said. Booth was arrested and booked on probable cause of attempted second-degree murder, first degree assault, attempted first degree assault, felony menacing and unlawful carrying of a concealed weapon.

The injured woman was transported to the hospital and treated for her injuries, which are believed to be non-life threatening.<?i>

More "enforcement theater" for the pleasure and satisfaction of MAGA.
