    That ICE officer endangered other people firing into the car like that. Crazy.

    yours is the silly comment. I think we all know that.
    I am simply commenting why a national broadcaster is not providing its public with all the info available? It’s not unique to RTE, lots of broadcasters worldwide show slanted versions of controversial issues.

    Ahahahahaha, what an absolute pathetic human being.

    He didn't get the award. Now he will take a second hand one!

    How humiliating to have this utter clown as your leader.

    Deeply deeply broken. He thinks like a child.

    Speaking of children, where the f**k are the Epstein files?

    Elect a clown... Expect a circus

    ICE the federal agency is excusing the extra recruitment of armed agents being less trained and used more in urban areas than before to enforce immigration laws. Is a lie the 50k bagman leading this chaos is being directed by sick nazi loving Miller

    For America to restore some truth and decency this sub human needs to be removed immediately so whats in the way?

    My first guess is those in the epstein files...

    Seems like the shooter is a 10 year ICE vet, so the untrained new hire thing maybe isn't an excuse at all.

    Plus, per the Guardian article, he was dragged by a car a bit ago and injured. I'd say maybe he shouldn't be back out on the street since, but I doubt ICE thinks that hard.

    Vance said on live tv that ICE the agent who murdered that woman was conducting Federal business and had "absolute immunity".

    So... There's the message to the remaining ICE agents... Murder away! There will be no ramifications

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,156 ✭✭✭✭salmocab


    never going to be ramifications, the cost of life is too cheap. Everything can be explained or rationaled away. Even people who aren’t Trump supporters like MM here will always find the rationale to explain something away.
    The rule of FAFO is now used to excuse any aul crap.

    you do know numerous votes over the years in Greenland are in support of independence ?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,877 ✭✭✭paddyisreal


    yes Israel should most definitely **** off out of Palestine. you are taking my previous comment out of context.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,877 ✭✭✭paddyisreal


    really so in a country who are in favour of independence you want Denmark to fully annex it ..... no different to trump then. the hypocrisy in here knows no bounds.

    hes severely traumatised by his childhood experiences, so a part of his mind is still stuck there, as he hasnt worked on these traumas throughout adulthood, hes effectively still a very broken child, so behaves as such, this is the ultimately the wrong person you d want in a position of such power, as they tend to be severely unstable, this situation will continue to deteriorate

    It’s official- we’re now living in a world governed by Donald Trumps “own morality”- his words folks. He’s not even interested in justifying things these days- he’s above the law.

    Well that’s very clear- he’s no longer just POTUS- he’s a global dictator .

    I think we can now officially say that America has a rogue president - so Democrats, and right thinking republicans, you need to fcking wake up!

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15447917/Trump-land-strikes-Mexico-power.html


    “The president earlier boasted of his massive foreign policy powers when asked what the limits were on what the US military could do in the region. 

    'My own morality. My own mind. It’s the only thing that can stop me,' he told The New York Times. ”

    No, he's just vile. I wish you'd stop defending horrible people with this excuse.

    The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the LORD your God.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,421 ✭✭✭✭Wanderer78


    defending? where? yes severely dysfunctional people tend to be vile, or what we d more commonly call 'arseholes'! wheres the defending occurring in my opinion?

    this is where his 'horribleness' is coming from, this is where current human understanding of such behaviors is known to come from, as we d say, dont shoot the messenger

    A post worth quoting regularly- and not at all hysterics either- given my post above where Trump has stated it’s only his own morality that will govern what America does or doesn’t do militarily, we have OFFICIALLY arrived in the American Nazi era- there’s absolutely no question about it



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,617 ✭✭✭CelticRambler


    Perhaps its because not all "information" is equally valid. It's impossible for any of us here to explain why RTE published what they did, but maybe you could explain why you're re-posting a version of the event that has since been conclusively proven false. And you've even backed up your misinformation with an adulterated video.

    If that's what the BBC are promoting (and I know Sky have been using it, even crediting Trump as their source) does it not bother you that you're being fed a dishonest interpretation of the incident?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,356 ✭✭✭✭Leroy42


    He said the quiet part out loud. But it alighs perfectly with their thinking. POTUS must be immune, anyone working on his orders therefore are immune.

    Noem started off by making up lies about what happened. When that was very obviously proved wrong they sent out the dual message that everyone needs to wait for a full investigation before jumping to conclusions while simultaneously being certain that the woman was completely to blame and in fact was part of a vast, nationwide, left wing group.

    That clearly wasn't working so Vance simply cut through the BS and said what they really believed. They aren't interested in any of that. They want ICE to create fear as that by itself will stop illegal immigrants. That fear requires public display and sometimes that will lead to incidents like this.

    But it collateral damage. Unfortunate for the person effected (if it is a US citizen) but acceptable to achieve the overall goal.

    And the positive from this is that most people will think twice about going anywhere near ICE. So they get to do more stuff without being held to account.

    While it is an uncomfortable few days for the administration it is perfect for their long term ambitions and they know this will be forgotten about by next week.

    Ok. Let's see some evidence for Trump's case then.

    From a Greenland perspective , I expect that if Greenland became part of The US eg state no 51 the Greenlanders would be in the FRONTLINE and bombed/nuked out of it if war broke out between the US and China or Russia.
    Also if the US ‘owned’ it more than it does now - with it’s military base there then there is also the possibility of a proxy war being carried out there.

    I’d say that your typical Greenlander need only ‘ look over the boarder into the US to see what life would be like under Trump , et al to make a decision as to what way to go

    I found a Victoria Cross in a pile of old army medals in a junk shop, so now I can call myself looksee VC. Sounds good!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 4,231 ✭✭✭Field east


    What about Channel 4? I find it a bit more out there , a bit more independant than the BBCs’. Re not being ‘told’ all the news . Are all/ most news outlets prone to giving a slant to all news and also choose what they do not want to report? - especially decisions in these areas are dependant on government , ownership and source of income



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,668 ✭✭✭Patrick2010


    I watch bodycam videos on on youtube and the regular US are held to a high standard. The rules are never stand in front of a car at a traffic stop. If it takes off follow without endangering traffic. Any cop who immediately shot the driver would be facing suspension and ultimate dismissal while the police force would be sued for millions. Meanwhile Trumps goons have unlimited immunity no matter who they kill. Are these all proud boys?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,375 ✭✭✭✭ancapailldorcha


    I doubt that, honestly. I very much doubt that.

    Apparently, half the morons who go through the ICE recruitment process fail an open book exam, something which ought to be impossible.

    The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the LORD your God.

    The US is definitely building up to some further chaos. Friend in Ohio sent me this. A former professional baseball player is going around to childcare facilities owned by Somalians and asking if the entrance is bullet proof. This is as a result of both Trump and an influencer called Nick Shirley who was pushing conspiracies that such creches were empty and a welfare scam. Honestly feels like the US is about to face some horrific events when you've got an armed population harassing creches because of conspiracy theories.

    I'm sure we'll have somebody in justifying these scenarios next.

    his behaviors are the exact evidence you re looking for, this is exactly how severely traumatised people behave, again, all this understanding, all comes from the social sciences, the tend to project, lie, manipulate etc etc etc

    So no evidence then. Just the same line over and over again.
