"died after guards held him down and he stopped breathing"

Fucks sake AP, what's with the passive voice here? Was he holding his fucking breath??

[–] Karjalan@lemmy.world 3 points 6 hours ago

It's unfortunate but usually wording like that is intentional and necessary, I.E if you say "mother fuckers murdered him" you'll get sued.

[–] CrackedLinuxISO@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 18 hours ago

Immigration and Customs Enforcement said the 55-year-old father of four was attempting suicide and the staff tried to save him.

...save him...

for themselves

Too bad nothing will be done about it.

This show ain't over, yet. You got a crystal ball?

[–] underisk@lemmy.ml 22 points 22 hours ago

No but I’ve got several decades of unchecked police criminality and brutality that paint a pretty clear picture of how this will go.

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 32 points 1 day ago

As did Epstein.

MDCGA
Making Death Camps Great Again.

Land of the free, home of the brave.

[–] AdolfSchmitler@lemmy.world 8 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

And those braindead maga fucks cheer it on. "Well he shouldn't have been illegal!" "He should've never come here in the first place!"

As if any of those excuses justify fucking murder.

[–] Paddzr@lemmy.world 3 points 16 hours ago

They're fine to execute civilians because they disobey them.

Judge, jury and executioner.

No other country in the world would accept this.

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 12 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Wow, so they strangle people to death now, too. Great.

[–] Steve@startrek.website 7 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago) (1 children)

Its a waste of manpower honestly. Maybe some sort of gas would be more efficient than individual stranglings.

Tap for spoilerPlease dont tell me this needs the sarcasm tag

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 3 points 21 hours ago

Maybe some kind of laser like in War of the Worlds. Bzzzzrrrreooong

[–] village604@adultswim.fan 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm just waiting for a Grok generated video of another detainee doing it.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 6 hours ago

ms dog annihilator noem, will ssay he was a violent immigrant.

[–] jpreston2005@lemmy.world 3 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

Ice out here murdering people in their concentration camps-

New York court records show Lunas Campos was convicted in 2003 of sexual contact with a person under 11, a felony for which he was sentenced to one year in jail and placed on the state’s sex offender registry.

Actually I'll take a pass, I'll get upset at the next one

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 hour ago

This is the exact shit they want. They probably chose to murder this dude specifically for exactly this reason.

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 20 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

Everyone deserves due process no matter how heinous they are. If someone is denied due process, no one has due process.

Except for the Nazi ringleaders, I'm perfectly ok with denying them due process

[–] treesquid@lemmy.world 6 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Congrats, Trump has just designated you a Nazi ringleader, now you don't get due process. You say it isn't true, but how do you prove it if you aren't given due process? See how this is always fucking stupid? Everyone gets due process or nobody does.

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 3 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

And how is that different than what's happening right now? They've already decided that anyone who's trans or anti capitalist is a."terrorist"

[–] partial_accumen@lemmy.world 4 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Except for the Nazi ringleaders, I’m perfectly ok with denying them due process

Sadly even Nazi ringleaders, otherwise Republicans will simply label those protesting ICE as "Nazi ringleaders" to deny them due process. I'm a big fan of the due process that Nazi's received in Nuremberg and the outcome of those trial against those assholes.

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 5 points 16 hours ago

Nuremberg barely did anything to them sadly. They all fled to Argentina and the US

[–] jim@lemmy.org 3 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

Maybe another protest sign will do the trick

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 2 points 20 hours ago

Has anyone tried sending a sternly written letter suggesting body cameras during state sponsored chokings?

[–] username123@sh.itjust.works 2 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Protest signs are one step up from protest comments, though I agree that the pattern needs progression across the board. 

[–] jim@lemmy.org 1 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Sure but this online, so comments are what we have in this space.

[–] MiddleAgesModem@lemmy.world 1 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

and it's the only space you take any action within

[–] PointlessProtestAgainstTheMachine@lemmy.org 0 points 14 hours ago (1 children)
[–] MiddleAgesModem@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

Way to tell on yourself, I never made the claim you did. If all your doing is commenting, you're doing nothing.

[–] Atelopus-zeteki@fedia.io 3 points 23 hours ago

Died of asphyxiation. grrr. There's a heap of justice waiting to land on somebody. Several somebodies.
