The woman shot and killed by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer in Minneapolis on Wednesday was Renee Nicole Macklin Good, a 37-year-old mother of three who had recently moved to Minnesota.

She was a U.S. citizen born in Colorado and appears to never have been charged with anything involving law enforcement beyond a traffic ticket.

In social media accounts, Macklin Good described herself as a “poet and writer and wife and mom.” She said she was currently “experiencing Minneapolis,” displaying a pride flag emoji on her Instagram account. A profile picture posted to Pinterest shows her smiling and holding a young child against her cheek, along with posts about tattoos, hairstyles and home decorating.

Ugh. Watch the video and make up your own mind. The ice agent took a shot to maim and kill the driver, not to incapicate the vehicle. Noem called her a terrorist and accused her of 'weaponizing her vehicle'. Fuck every one of them, and everyone that allowed the orange rapist into office.

    The Republicans were just the larval stage that finally transformed into their final form: MAGA. They are all the same, no matter how much they deny it. That includes conservatives. They're all MAGA.

    Everything about the State's attempt to rewrite the entire narrative is a lie. The worst you could say is she was being a nuisance to ICE agents. Last I checked, that didn't carry a death sentence.

    This needs to be a wake up call to all of you (US citizens living in the US).

    Yup. Super clear from the video that she was turning the vehicle away from the agents. Also, the guy had more than enough time to step out of the way, making use of deadly force literally illegal.

    With how incompetent they behaved, I was extremely surprised when I learned the victim was white.

    Shooting the driver of a vehicle doesn't stop the vehicle. There is literally never a reason to kill a driver, especially in a populated area where the vehicle becomes a deadly projectile.

    Puppy Killer took the time to point out instances of people blocking ICE cars, and it was clearly pissing her off. They want to end that practice, because it works, and gives targets a chance to escape.

    So I wouldn't be surprised that they were ordered that if anyone blocks an ICE vehicle, to leap in front of it, and kill the driver, and send a message. So that guy got out of his car, drawing his weapon, and as she looked at him, he put two bullets in her face.

    Minnesota should arrest the ICE Jackal for First Degree murder, all the rest as accessories, and everyone in the chain of command who created the order, and passed it down, for murder as well.

    I do. I've joined a collective of armed leftists. I was legit surprised that they existed.

    If you own a gun, and you conceal carry, consider finding your local group and get involved.

    You guys need more of you. I know many of the left are armed down there and not showing off their "stashes" but the great majority I have seen do not seem left leaning (red hats, snake flags, etc, seem to often be present in the pictures). Hoping you guys get this under control

    I've said this in other comments but bares repeating: we have a lot of people willing to fight for democracy, but very few people willing to die for it.

    I won't share anything specific on what the group does (or doesn't do) but the biggest thing that anyone within the US can do right now is to get politically involved, especially if you are white and cis.

    • Find immigration attorneys and volunteer your time and talents with them
    • Find LGBT+ groups and be their ally
    • Volunteer at local homeless shelters, legal aid centers, etc.

    You can do all of those things anonymously if you fear for your own safety. But get involved. I've done all of those things I listed above and I can tell you that the needs are huge. The more you make yourself known, the more people will trust you and you will be come part of the resistance.

    And stay quiet. They all think that only they have the guns, and they think we're all going to just get on our knees, and politely take the bullet in the brain. And frankly, a lot will.

    But a lot of us are also going to fight back, and that will be a big surprise to them. An even bigger surprise is that when it kicks off, they will discover that the lefty shooters are MUCH better shots than MAGAs, who only own guns to convince others that they don't have a micropenis.

    They think that's what they're doing. They are feral ignorant morons, driven by their most base instincts, and they've never even heard of the concept of Critical Thinking Skills. That makes them remarkably susceptible to the most stupid sort of flat-earth level propaganda.

    ICE is a bunch of rabid dogs. They should be put down, it’s the humane thing to do. I hope that this specific agent burns alive ☺️👍🏻

    It seems like your choices when confronted by ICE are:

    1. Try to run away. You may get get murdered during your attempt.
    2. Identify yourself, possibly be incorrectly identified as "not a citizen," possibly die in a concentration camp.
    3. Exercise the second amendment. Get shot and die.

    A life snapped in a moment by someone that had no right. She was executed while trying to run away from a terrifying situation, and now her kids also have to endure the way they're talking of their mother and try to process that.

    Don't let it be in vain.

    The other day I was in the car and I remembered that gruesome video where a brick flies out of the back of a truck and instantly kills a mother in the following car's passenger seat...

    My palms got kinda sweaty, and I started thinking about how I would react if that happened to my loved ones.

    Then I remembered that I have much more immediate concerns to be worrying about, like getting stopped by ICE for being non-white (despite my citizenship) and getting shot in the face by someone with zero training.

    What’s wild is rightoids, by and large, love this shit. They’re literally celebrating it and unironically being like “THATS FOR KIRK!” So much of their political philosophy is “look what you made me do to you!”

    They're going to claim that people are trying to kill them anyway. Might as well stop them from lying and create some real consequences for these Nazis. I've seen so many videos of them surrounded by crowds, it wouldn't take much.

    You should direct your anger at media organizations that didn't cover those other cases adequately or at all. You're pissed at an imaginary group of people right now: those who would care about such a murder, but only conditional to white people.

    Not to mention this is Minnesota, we've been prepared for this kind of thing for awhile. Any kind of incident here was going to be recorded and broadcast everywhere because we've learned what happens with George Floyd.

    Remember the whole BLM protest thing over George Floyd? Was that not enough outrage for you? Or are you just looking for some made up racism here where it doesn’t exist?

    This was the pinnacle of wrongness. There was no probable cause. Zero. No threat - other than the one the officer deliberately created by placing himself in front of the car. No history, no weapon, no altercation, no dispatch to a suspected threat, nothing. The protesters in Portland did far more inflammatory things and nobody got a (non-rubber) lethal bullet to the head.

    The ICE shooter went from zero to murder in seconds.
