I fully agree, but.. this ain't no shit post.

[–] [email protected] 54 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You're right. Looks like we were the shit post all along.

[–] [email protected] 34 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The real shitpost was the friends we made along the way 😌

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The real post is the shits we took along the way.

The real shits we posted yesterday

Cross posted shits, every day

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

And saved the rest of the shits for another day.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

A wonderwall of shit, if you will

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago

It is because ice agents are fucking piece of shits. Not even worthy of being called shits more like the stain left over.

Yeah…that would be cool but…this country isn’t big on accountability.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yep, the lesser Bush and Trump I shows that Democrats are not interested in punishing crimes committed by Republicans.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

That's because US politics is so unhealthy that political persecution is only a step away. They rather let one "no longer relevant asshole" go than risk pocking that hornets nest.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

It's more about randomly robbing and murdering people for having the wrong skin tone.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

I mean the voters are the accountability. Seems like the right show up with weapons and plan A, B, and C that they have organised for the past year.

The left show up with knowledge of how to get arrested. And it's getting frustrating to watch. We need to start asking ourselves why they do things at can't muster half the strength for

Please promise to yourself right now that we will not let them be forgiven. We will not let whatever centrist Democrats convince us to "move forward" and "let us heal". These officers need to be given Nuremberg Trials. If we get control of this government, EVERY one of these ICE agents who raided or abducted even one person, get sent to prison. I hope for life.

I don't care if they have kids, lovers, parents, friends, grandkids. After these years there will be people dead, permanently traumatized, and permanently disabled.

Be it Constitutional or vigilante, justice will be served.

If history is any precedent I think ICE agents will pivot to claiming anti-communism as a defense and be just fine.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago

The leaders will get nice cushy jobs in Israel as consultants.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 week ago (4 children)

I'm sorry. does anyone really believe that?

"in the interest of not causing division we will offer an amnesty to all personnel who assumed orders they got were lawful"

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago

No one said that we were relying on the government to carry out justice.

The agents that abused their authority need to be punished, but I would be more interested in punishing the people in power that enabled this mess or ignored what was going on.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago

Please both.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

We should carve maga on their foreheads

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago (4 children)

I'd settle for fair prosecution using the body of US law that existed up to the inauguration of Trump47.

If we survive this, I absolutely plan to shame them into non-existence.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

How can you shame that which is shameless?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

"That is not ashamed which can eternally lie,
And with strange aeons even shame may die"

I’m guessing whoever made this doesn’t know much about Operation Paperclip.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Pretty sure the fascists in ICE aren't the intellectual types who have anything to offer for scientific programs.

Mouth-breathing thugs aren't exactly scientific geniuses though.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

I hope they learn it before this is all over.

WALLS are being chosen

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Why not, it helped for many nazis after the second world war. Many got convicted, but also many didn't.

Thought they had qualified immunity?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 week ago (5 children)

Qualified immunity specifically does not apply in cases where someone's clearly established civil rights were violated, though the criteria for that is specific. Further, it applies only to civil cases, not criminal cases. It may certainly help them in some instances, but it's not going to be a blanket shield.

1 Was a constitutional right violated?

2 Was the right clearly established at the time of the alleged violation?

https://www.justia.com/civil-rights/government-violations-of-civil-rights/qualified-immunity/

Under this doctrine, government agents—including but not limited to police officers—can never be sued for violating someone’s civil rights, unless they violated “clearly established law.” While this is an amorphous, malleable standard, it generally requires civil rights plaintiffs to show not just a clear legal rule, but a prior case with functionally identical facts.

In other words, it is entirely possible—and quite common—for courts to hold that government agents did violate someone’s rights, but that the victim has no legal remedy, simply because that precise sort of misconduct had not occurred in past cases.

https://www.americanbar.org/groups/public_education/publications/insights-on-law-and-society/volume-21/issue-1/qualified-immunity/

While yes, IANAL, I'm exceptionally doubtful that clearly established constitutional rights aren't being violated by the behaviors of ICE under Trump, in many, many circumstances.

This is one of those things that can never be forgiven. There were so many instances of abuse of power.

Too many to not notice
