I asserted you were wrong and listed why I said that to you.
You begin the ad hominem attack by telling me to study more history without providing any reasoning behind your claim.
You could have said “oh just look at the Tulsa Massacre, CIA Activities, government toppling, agent orange, My Lai Massacre, the treatment of minority groups throughout our countries history, slavery, systemic racism and injustice, rampant corporatism, resource guarding, Kent State Massacre, political assassinations of civil rights leaders, mkultra, fbi congress bribing scandals, the Tuskegee experiment, and etc”
you deliberately ignored the nuance of the first half of my message to respond with the same tired message of “America Bad”.
We are both allowed to express our opinions, and mine is that even if my first point is wrong, we can do better.
9/11 is really where the modern world was birthed in terms of American politics.
Sure it’s been terrible in the past, but it hasn’t always been this terrible and for about 30 years or so it has been restrained (Rodney king protests). It went Cold War during this time and most adults 40 and below have known relative peace in the U.S. in conjunction with government sanctioned violence towards our own people.
Don’t twist these ideas with a flawed concept of we “always have done it this way ” as if human society hasn’t progressed whatsoever. With this outlook we would have been living in caves and fields all the way up to now. It’s like oppressive defeatism, and it’s just utterly pointless.
Just because things have been one way doesn’t mean it can’t be changed.
The world is not binary and we can always push forward for positive changes.
Th issue isn’t that other people do what they are told or ever have, it’s that the Judiciary had an enforcement arm that would get these people and round them up.
Thats what stopped happening, the enforcement arm became the oppressors an dissenters themselves.
Yeah, that’s because it’s more like having a felony when you are dishonorably discharged, but who knows given the context of your story what happened. Was he enlisted or an officer? Which branch was he in?
Like different things could happen depending on the situation:
United States > Military > Army > Active Duty Army
United States > Military > Air Force > Air Force National Guard
These are both the military and being defective would be awol. Sure they are all under the UCMJ legal system, but that can be applied differently in each case.
There are different types of discharges from the military a depends on how that army unit wants to report that particular solider.
It’s just more of spectrum of thins that can happen.
This is a bitch ass view point and only stifles momentum for these protests and the exposure that they bring.
This puts it in the face of the daily regular person that passes by and the average person is aware of these protests. Most importantly it allows people to talk and coordinate both ideas and opportunities for future involvement. It’s the foundation for more effective groups that will come later.
8th amendment concerns protecting you from cruel and unusual punishment. Trump and DHS are actively lying to the American people.
The punishment for violation of the law isn’t immediate death, no matter how much these people and their supporters suggest. You shouldn’t be killed for disobeying ICE.
I’ve seen multiple angles of the video, ICE murdered a woman committing a Y turn to leave a situation. Even if he was in danger of the vehicle running him over, he for one put himself in that position, and then two decided to immediately fire into the face of an unarmed person driving a vehicle. Then they prevented any and all medical aid being rendered.
There is no justification, this was an execution as punishment.
