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.

I didn't see a pic. All that came up at that link was an @. Did the "ministry of truth" purge it already?

No, you have to click through and close the pop-up, apparently. But the images are all over the web - the below link shows the windshield clearly:

greenwichtime.com - Photos from minneapolis where an ice officer

That bullet could have missed. We don't know how many times the driver was hit. The other two shots appear to have gone through the door window, and the window appears to have been rolled down, as it seems I can see the drivers arm on the window sill.

Sure - the point being that there isn't a bullet hole more centered in the windshield, which means the driver probably wasn't killed by a shot fired from in front of the car. Supporting the idea that the officer was off to the side of the car when the fatal shot was fired, not in front of it.

Or the storm troopers can seize all the evidence, and bury it, to maintain the Secretary's narrative that every one of her storm troopers is perfect in every way.

And, at the end of the day, the woman would not be dead, if the storm troopers were not there.


The same is true of any LEO shooting, even if justified - so it doesn't tell us anything about whether the shooting was justified.

It's deeply unlikely that ICE can "seize all the evidence and bury it." There will have to be an autopsy and ballistics/forensic report, and that can't simply go missing. To say nothing of the various videos that are already on the web, which may be joined by more. This is not the sort of thing that can be made to go away....
