Oh crikey Trump

Bellingcat have done an analysis of the video and other aspects of what happened in Minneapolis.

I imagine lawyers are already working to fight this . So the shooter needs to put himself in harms way to get a good video. This monstrous spectacle is hopefully going to persuade more voters to render Dump impotent in the mid-terms.
Three children wake up this morning - their mother murdered by wannabee wild west hero Dump agent.

The ICE agent had been in a very similar incident six months ago and was quite badly injured, clearly he was not mentally fit for duty.

Putting himself in harm’s way is the one thing that may work against him. You can’t cause the problem and then try to shoot your way out of it.

Might the woman have survived if the bystander who identified himself as a physician, and tried repeatedly to reach the victim slumped in her car but was prevented by ICE?

Fast medical response is critical. Why did ICE on scene actively prevent that?

You can in America.

At risk of sounding like a conspiracy theorist, I wonder what she had seen that they did not want told to others.

Rather a stupid thing to invent knowing his behaviour unlike ‘Project Fear’ which was rather clever and sadly very effective.

Yes on a video an ICE officer said they have their own physicians. Where - in another state?

So that they could agree on a cover up ?

Head shot or upper body involving a major blood vessel presumably given how quickly she collapsed/died - bystander CPR, even by a qualified medic, would most likely have been useless.

Do we even know how long she lived? She may have at least died being comforted by the lady doctor.

No idea but she lost control of the car within a couple of seconds

  • The UK has roughly 225 nuclear warheads, with about 120 deployed on Vanguard-class submarines. These missiles possess the range
  • 12,000 km to reach any target in the USA.
    While the UK can technically fire its Trident missiles without explicit, real-time US permission, the system is heavily integrated with US support, with missiles swapped and maintained at US facilities.
    Logistical Dependence:** The missiles are held in a common pool with the US Navy in Georgia, meaning the UK relies on the US for maintaining its arsenal.

Doesn’t mean she died then though it’s likely

No it doesn’t but considering the most likely site for the GSW will have been head or upper body, which means - given that she did collapse very quickly - that something important was hit.

While the UK has operational independence, I wouldn’t be at all surprised if there were technical constraints that prevent targeting the US.

Though given that the second last test firing started heading towards Florida, perhaps not.

That was the inherent gist of my post.

Which now sound like they were wrong and she was just a local resident.

Didn’t catch that at all. All I saw was stockpile sizes and logistics. There’s a lot of public confusion over just how independent the deterrent is, with some really fanciful notions out there.
