In the interest of maintaining some standard of evidence-based information, here is a source with more journalistic integrity than a bluesky screen cap:

Well the post body does include an abc7 video report. But thanks for additional sources.

In Annecy, Frnace, there's a plaque on one of the elementary schools where Jewish kids were forcibly removed from class by the ss and taken away. Same shit's starting to happen in America now.

Kill the fascists, disrupt their plans. Fuck them.

Remember everyone. Due processes is there to determine if the activity is criminal. You are not a criminal until you have been convicted.

Saying anyone does not deserve due process bc they are a criminal is factually wrong

Can't help wondering how many stone cold rapists and paedophiles are out there pretending to be ICE and kidnapping people.

[–] douglasg14b@lemmy.world 50 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Perfect opportunity for them. Even worse are organized hate groups like KKK and friends

[–] Saleh@feddit.org 24 points 4 days ago

So, the ICE and Police?

What is most disturbing is that most of those are chaotic, disorganized impersonators who therefore got caught.

There are probably calm, professional-looking adults doing this and flying under the radar.

Ted Bundy pretended to be a detective to try to lure at least one girl, but thankfully she escaped. How many others weren't that lucky?

We might see a brief resurgence in serial killers if they start to realize this is a valid tactic, and this shit will get ICE agents shot because many people carry guns specifically for over the top scenarios like these.

I sure as hell would start shooting. In Canada, if someone was actually trying to kidnap someone like that and the victim fired back, their shooting would be justified. They would still go to jail for years for illegally carrying a gun but the actual shooting would be justified. There is precedent for this in Canadian law.

You know what can turn a normal parent into a "dOMestIC tERroRIst"?... fucking with their kids

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 176 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (9 children)

IIRC, that happened a few months ago, not now. A lot of schools are out for the summer already anyway. School staff did a great job of making the feds fuck off.

[–] LandedGentry@lemmy.zip 88 points 5 days ago (8 children)

If my kids’ school ever handed them over to the feds I’d burn the fucker down myself.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 94 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Now imagine how the parents of Uvalde felt. Police showed up, and not only did nothing, but actively prevented OTHER parents, who were showing up to storm the grounds to shoot the shooter themselves. But the police protected the shooter, causing the deaths of more kids. If memory serves me right, 12 kids had died before parents showed up. And something like 37 died by days end.

Meaning, even if the police did nothing, and allowed the parents to go through, parents would have shot the shooter and saved 25 more kids.

Imagine knowing your kid is dead because police were afraid.

That conservative town that reelected the police chief?

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 38 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Yes, the chief that ran uncontested for 15 years until the most recent vote wherein there were three write-in challengers, won with 45% of the votes.

There's gonna be videos of ice shooting children by the time this is all over

[–] P1nkman@lemmy.world 35 points 4 days ago (2 children)

They'll run into a classroom where kids are drawing, and claim they feared for their lives, because the pens could be used to harm them.

Then they'll get 2-6 weeks paid leave, and be promoted when they get back.

This would make me go nuclear.

Kidnapping our kids?

You want a primal reaction? This will fast track it.

[–] Tronn4@lemmy.world 36 points 4 days ago (6 children)

They do want that reaction. They're provoking normal people into violence to allow them to show an emergency and thus bring in the entire army

"Test run"? When the fuck do people get that this is real?

[–] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 40 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Is this what "saving the children" look like?

America is completely and utterly fucked. There’s obviously no way Trump will run for president for a third term, but under the new fascist state, there isn’t a constitution to contest for said third term. He’ll be leader until death.

But hey, thank your stupid god that you believe in so firecely that you’ve got that second amendment in your constitution you so adamantly demanded you need for times just like this to have your guns to use and overthrow your tyrannical government. Oh wait. Right; you’re all fucking bark and no bite.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 38 points 5 days ago (2 children)

No, it was always a bad-faith argument so they could hold onto tools for killing brown people.

You're UNAMERICAN if you DONT want Random Strangers KIDNAPPING 1st graders! And if you TRY to VOICE your Opinion AGAINST Kidnapping First Graders our Dear Leader Trump will send US MARINES TO GET YOU!

[–] clonedhuman@lemmy.world 45 points 5 days ago (3 children)

It's getting to that point.

Our only option is going to be killing them.

Does anyone have a source for this?

[–] Psythik@lemm.ee 35 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Nobody's asking the real question: Why are first graders driving unmarked cars to begin with?
