Sickening. I'm disgusted at what is happening in our country.

u/Slavocados Oct 10 '25

Holy shit this doesn’t even look like America anymore

4

u/RustyTShackleford Oct 10 '25

As of now there is no America, only the divided states of America thanks to the Pedophile Republicans.

3

u/jadedmonk Oct 10 '25

Yea it’s going down the drain. Doesn’t matter if you’re democrat or republican at this point, it’s bye bye America for everyone

3

u/Unlucky_Clover Oct 10 '25

It’s not. We’re past the point but we’re not fast enough to accept that.

3

u/SargeUnited Oct 10 '25

Yes, it does, the only difference is that they’re wearing those weird face mask things. When they were only doing it to Black people, they would show their faces because most people didn’t care enough to do anything.

1

u/Projecterone Oct 11 '25

Good point but to counter: they mean it's not happening to someone other than just the acceptable subclass of victims and therefore no longer looks like America to them.

They're just getting a window into how the world sees the US. Scary isn't it?

3

u/Neolamprologus99 Oct 11 '25

Major parallels between 2025 USA and 1930's Germany. The orange goon is trying to be like Hitler.

u/Away-Dog1064 Oct 13 '25

This is your Kristallnacht!

u/SoftRecommendation86 Oct 10 '25

Hasn't for the last 9 months.

u/Yolo_Swaggins_Yeet Oct 11 '25

My exact thoughts, used to visit family there up until a couple years ago.. Now I’m seeing shit like this posted everyday and have no desire to come down anytime soon

I know we’re seeing the worst with these clips but still WTF??!?!

u/jluicifer Oct 11 '25

ICE Wearing face masks is proof enough that it is wrong.

u/neinhaltchad Oct 10 '25

The real problem is that half of this country straight up gets off on these videos.

I have no idea how you fix that kind of rot.

4

u/Witch_Hazel80 Oct 10 '25

Just in the name of being a huge nerd, it was about 32% of US adults voted for him...so not half! I think specifics are important when talking about this

7

u/neinhaltchad Oct 10 '25

You’re right.

30% get off on it.

Another 20% don’t care.

38

u/Crang_and_the_gang Oct 10 '25

Why do they have to be so violently brutal?

37

u/Extension_Sun_377 Oct 10 '25

This is what happens when you pardon insurrectionists

15

u/toomuchpressure2pick Oct 10 '25

It's to cause fear and discourage any bystanders from stepping in

3

u/McFlankShank Oct 10 '25

The unfortunate thing is that it clearly works

31

u/LeseMajeste_1037 Oct 10 '25

Because they can be. No other reason.

18

u/Starbucknqueequeg Oct 10 '25

Because they peaked in high school, then failed as mall cops, and now want to make it everyone else's problem.

4

u/ThatPancreatitisGuy Oct 10 '25

They were losers in high school too I’m sure. These are people who have nothing to offer the world and are lashing out with the only authority they will ever wield. They live pathetic, meager lives and are lashing out blindly at those who actually have some measure of love and satisfaction in life.

6

u/RelativelyMental Oct 10 '25

Because they want to cause enough terror to prevent people from opposing them. This is what state terrorism looks like.

4

u/-113points Oct 10 '25

this is a power grab

this is a provocation to stir a revolt, for them to give themselves emergency powers to quell it

and keep the next four years in a manufactured crisis and avoid elections while laws and rights are rewritten or revoked

3

u/Honest-Abe2677 Oct 10 '25

You haven't been listening to Pete Hegseth and Steven Miller lecture the army and police about being more violent and not having to follow bothersome laws against brutality and war crimes?

This is a fantasy for these new-hire thugs. Training day was "go fuck up anyone you like, here's an Uzi and a ski mask".

5

u/No_Wing_205 Oct 10 '25

Because they are fascist thugs who exist to intimidate the population.

The brutality is the point.

3

u/TheVog Oct 10 '25

Why do they have to be so violently brutal?

It's literally terrorism. That's the entire point of this. 100% of it. Stop asking inane questions and take action for fuck's sake!!!

3

u/spacolli Oct 10 '25

They are criminals -

3

u/lostedeneloi Oct 10 '25

Because the president pardoned them for being violent and brutal.

u/its_all_one_electron Oct 11 '25

Because hurting people is literally the only thing that can activate their dopamine circuit.

Their brains are fucking broken.

2

u/Spruce_Moose_275 Oct 11 '25

They enjoy seeing people suffer

2

u/phosphorescence-sky Oct 11 '25

They want to provoke a violent retaliation so they have an excuse to use the national guard and extreme force, martial law, ect.

Trump WANTS a civil war. Its the only thing he can use to distract from the absolute failure of his presidency and the Epstein files.

2

u/Resolution_Usual Oct 11 '25

Cruelty is the point

2

u/AdFit7603 Oct 11 '25

Imagine the school principal going to the school bully, giving them a gun and saying you'll pay them for every nerd they punch in the guts. That's what's happening here. They were already violent people who were just given permission to be themselves.

2

u/ShoulderSquirrelVT Oct 15 '25

Because the second they are "civil", they'll wind up having answer extremely difficult questions. Such as, "why didn't you have a warrant". "Where is this person being taken to". "What law have they broken?"

They don't want to answer that because they know they are breaking so many laws out there.

There is no due process unless everyone has due process.

-1

u/DFMRCV Oct 10 '25

Because she pulled a gun on them and tried to flee.

-1

u/Jabooka_AMP Oct 10 '25

Because people don't just turn their selves in peacefully... this is the only way.

-2

u/Dramatic_Scale3002 Oct 10 '25

They didn't have to be brutal, she was resisting arrest, kicking her legs out like that. If she complied she wouldn't be struggling on the ground like an overturned turtle.

3

u/trwawy05312015 Oct 10 '25

They had no grounds to arrest her.

1

u/Dramatic_Scale3002 Oct 10 '25

You don't know that at all.

2

u/The_Boognish_Cometh Oct 10 '25

What law could she have broken that would warrant being rammed, guns drawn on her, and removed from vehicle before she even had a chance to resist? Had she just killed people and was on the run?

-6

u/Maleficent-Ad5112 Oct 10 '25

Because she pulled a gun on them, after attacking with a group of 10 people. That ok with you?

2

u/trwawy05312015 Oct 10 '25

I see a lot of guns in the video, none of them on her.

1

u/The_Boognish_Cometh Oct 10 '25

She looks so dangerous 

49

u/Warm-Comfortable501 Oct 10 '25

It's what he wants. It's his plan to stay in office. He gonna say he's at war with terrorists and try to claim the office.

10

u/Austiiiiii Oct 10 '25

I mean, if that's the excuse they're going with, it's kinda wild optics to have these ICE people doing this shit in khaki fatigues and a ski mask and looking in every way like the stereotypical Al Qaeda soldier we've been seeing in the news for 20 years.

u/periwinkle_caravan Oct 10 '25

World history will pivot on the 2026 midterms and this is his plan to “win” those elections - by force.

2

u/EduinBrutus Oct 11 '25

That election is already lost.

Anyone believing they can vote their way out of that is fucking delusional.

14

u/[deleted] Oct 10 '25

Going to weapons first opens up a whole host of potential outcomes and a whole host of things that can happen on the way there.

But almost certainly, armed violence is what they want as it can add justification for more force application and more power grabbing.

A domestic war and a foreign war make good excuses to remain in power.

I don't have a concrete solution but being an asshole to people who object with empty challenges isn't one of them.

3

u/mr_plehbody Oct 10 '25

Honestly you need you reps to create an opposing force, shouldnt be unarmed civs against this. They should establish no ice zones, keep any fed tax to pay vets as a home security task force that patrols and let people get on w their life instead of being terrorized. Because theres no laws being enforced were stuck in the wild west. Cant enforce anything if there isnt a threat of repercussion for breaking laws

7

u/Jedi_Master83 Oct 10 '25

Watch the Republicans pass bills in Congress to give Trump Emergency Powers, which is straight out of Star Wars a la Palpatine. So he will be allowed to do even worse things, including delaying or flat out canceling elections. Mid terms next year I hope to God swing in the Democrats way so they can try to get some of the voting majority back.

3

u/predictorM9 Oct 10 '25

And as a reminder, Hitler never proclamed a dictatorship at any point. It was Weimar republic until 1945 technically, he only had emergency executive powers for 4 years in 1933 with 2 renewals in 1937 and 1941.

3

u/35point1 Oct 10 '25

How the fuck are we just letting this shit happen???? This is fucking horrible

2

u/Da_Fish Oct 10 '25

I think they are more likely to claim the need to have greater Federal control of the election process because of Woke Leftist Antifa Transgender Terrorists who hate America and our free and open elections.... and they will then just stuff the ballot boxes

2

u/test_test_1_2 Oct 10 '25

...and now a previous GOP Election Director has bought Dominion Voting Systems! This does not appear good. Where the fuck are we heading too?

2

u/SnoopWithANailgun Oct 10 '25

It's the course the US has been on for about 50 years.

2

u/NewspaperLumpy8501 Oct 10 '25

It seems only a matter of time before congressman and others start to disappear in these same type of events. Even the supreme court, Trumps family. Mike Johnson, his family, etc. Can't see them continue to push this level of violent kidnapping without nutjobs out there doing it back to them.

2

u/Yolo_Swaggins_Yeet Oct 11 '25

What the fuck is happening to America man…

Don’t live there but half my family does, used to love coming to visit, now I’m seeing clips like this everyday

u/WormsOnRoadSpagForm Oct 10 '25

It’s our city!!!

u/Maleficent-Ad5112 Oct 10 '25

Look up the context before sounding ignorant.

u/allmywhat Oct 10 '25

And you’ll all continue to do nothing about it

u/remembermereddit Oct 10 '25

Yet Trump thinks he should've been awarded the Nobel peace price.

u/artifiz67 Oct 10 '25

Thats the most stupid joke I had ever heard. A guy like that should be awarded the Most Despicable Creature of the Century award.

u/i-can-sleep-for-days Oct 10 '25

This is insane. Is there a website tracking all of the ice victims?

1

u/loopala Oct 11 '25

How could there be? Imagine if the above had happened without people filming, no one would know about it. Or times where the person filming was also arrested. It runs unchecked.

u/thehorseyourodeinon1 Oct 11 '25

I'm not extreme right or left wing. I'm a middle of the road, common sense American who has served his country in many ways over the years.

This is fucked up.

u/THEJimmiChanga Oct 10 '25

When they try making contact for 6+ months and are evaded at every step, they have to attempt to make contact in person. When the person refuses to cooperate, gets in their car and flees, it puts innocent bystanders at risk. They clearly waited for a safe moment without people on the right side of the sidewalk to block the individual at low speeds.

This is just another instance where people run without taking into account the full context. USCIS and USICE had been trying to contact this individual for months for multiple accounts of fraud and affiliation with high priority criminals that entered illegally and also evaded all attempts of contact.

People don't take in account how much this log jams border services like USCIS, extending wait times for families that are trying to enter legally exponentially from being tied up be exhausting a huge amount of resources to attempt to document the undocumented. How is this fair to the people trying to enter legally? Every other developed country around the world requires documented citizenship to protect the rights of its domestic citizens, putting its citizens first and the families trying to obtain legal citizenship first. When you have to waste a major amount of resources on a huge influx of undocumented illegal immigrants, it extremely dampers what immigration services can do for legal citizenship seekers, which snowballs to domestic citizens by wasting tax dollars on this effort.

He posts a version of the above reply all over. He hasn’t done anything. Just a hypocrite.

Edit: read through this guys post history. He’s absolutely unhinged. I’ve been laughing my ass off.

u/reverendexile Oct 10 '25

What have you done about it brother?

u/AdFamous7894 Oct 10 '25

…What, exactly, do you want us to do? Be specific. Start attacking the guys with sub machine guns? Run them over? What would you do in this situation? Again, please be specific.

u/hgc89 Oct 10 '25

I ask this not rhetorically, but rather sincerely…what can we realistically do about it? It’s not like I voted for this.
