ICE Kills Woman, Minneapolis Protesters 'Urge' Restraint
In news that would be darkly comedic if it weren't so tragic, Bloomberg notes that Minneapolis protesters are now 'urging' a judge to curb ICE's use of force, specifically after a federal agent shot and killed a woman in her car. One might wonder if 'don't kill citizens without cause' is a novel concept for federal agencies, or if the training materials just haven't been updated since the 19th
century. Is 'use of force' only defined by official policy, while actual bullets are just... 'oopsies'? This isn't an isolated incident. ICE, an agency with a history of controversy, including documented abuses and deaths in custody, appears to operate under a unique definition of accountability. While protesters are left begging judges for basic human rights protections, the federal agent
involved likely faces an 'internal review' before being reassigned. It seems a court order is required to remind some government agents that pulling a trigger has consequences beyond a mere 'incident report.'
