Why are they allowed to wear face masks?

u/M_Buske 9h ago

And I guarantee he was one of the people during COVID yelling from the rooftops saying wearing a mask infringed his rights and he couldn't even breathe in it

u/mmob18 7h ago

same reason why online forums get crazier the more anonymous they get (think of a scale from FB to 4chan).

it's because people are much more likely to do inhumane shit when they're wearing a mask. confidence goes through the roof when you know you can't be identified.

u/uberfission 8h ago

So they can take it off when they go home without getting lynched.

u/SlamperDamper 4h ago

The claim is that the radical terrors in the streets are doxing them and endangering them if they identify them so they need to hide their identities for their safety.

Ouroboros continues

u/Aldoxpy 2h ago

Cuz they don't want to suffer the consequences of being a gestapo

-21

u/KatInThighHighs 6h ago

Because people keep doxing them and sending them death threats. They uh... don't exactly want an ICE agent and his family die after their house gets set alight.

Should have reached in there, locked the doors, and shut the door.

u/aggresivepanda 8h ago

Then the agent would think heā€™s stealing his car and shoot him 17 times

u/AMB07 7h ago

For self-defence.

u/DotJata 23m ago

Don't know about Dodge but most cars disable the operation of the driver door lock while the driver door is open so it's harder to accidentally lock yourself out. You'd need to reach in from another open door.

-21

u/int0xic 8h ago

They have keyless entry. Cop would just need to press the button on the door.

u/M0ebius_1 8h ago

There are no cops in this video

-51

u/Canadian_Kartoffel 8h ago

Oh yes, this guy is a cop. Ain't no real difference between local police or ICE.

Neither of them is on the side of the people.

u/Yuzumi_ 3h ago

Imagine being so confidently uneducated that you mistake two different law enforcement agencies with different jurisdictions, legal authorities, and responsibilities as being legally identical, then proudly announce it in public.

You can dislike both ICE and local police all you want, but that doesn't magically erase the legal distinctions between them. One primarily enforces federal immigration law, while the other primarily enforces state and local law.

Criticizing institutions is fine. Advertising that you don't understand how they work while acting intellectually superior is a whole different level of embarrassing.

1

u/excidium_1221 26m ago

But... there was no mention of legal distinction, or responsiblties, in the comment you're replying too. Maybe they've made other comments on the topic that I haven't dug into, but you this one can be read as a comparison of how the agencies treat people, which some could argue, is the same.

0

u/Yuzumi_ 23m ago

Then they should've specified that. ā€œThere's no real differenceā€ is a blanket statement, not a specific criticism of how they treat people. If they meant their conduct is similar, that's debatable. But you can't assume that's what they meant and act like every other interpretation is invalid.

-2

u/bman86 2h ago

My friend, his vest says police on it. He, without a doubt, calls himself a cop. If they're making arrests, other leos would call him by rank, and then specify ice. They support each other and work with each other, regardless of legal distinction.

The second sentence is their opinion.

And the third sentence is the truth.

2

u/Yuzumi_ 2h ago

My guy, nobody is arguing that ICE agents aren't law enforcement officers or that they don't cooperate with local police. You're arguing against a point nobody made.

The claim was that there's no real difference between local police and ICE. There absolutely is a legal difference. They operate under different jurisdictions, enforce different laws, and have different statutory powers. Wearing a vest that says ā€œPOLICEā€ doesn't magically make those distinctions disappear loll.

And pointing out that law enforcement agencies cooperate with each other doesn't prove they're legally interchangeable. The FBI works with local police, too. Does that mean there's no real difference between an FBI agent and a municipal cop?

You can criticize both institutions without pretending their legal differences don't exist. Those two things aren't mutually exclusive.

-2

u/bman86 2h ago

Are we reading the same chain of comments? Nobody is arguing anything except whether or not this guy is a cop or not.

Conditions that matter to this point in the thread: Could he lock the door with his cop mandated keyless entry? No cause he's not a cop.

Other dude: Yes he is.

You from the top rope: nope because federal distinction.

Nah man, they're doing the same thing as cops, dress like cops, equipped like cops, with the same attitude as cops, with slightly different suspects - and they both have keyless fobs.

3

u/Yuzumi_ 1h ago

Then maybe read what I'm actually saying instead of arguing with a point I never made.

If you're using ā€œcopā€ colloquially to mean a law enforcement officer, then yes, an ICE agent can reasonably be called a cop. But that doesn't make ICE and local police legally interchangeable. They operate under different jurisdictions and have different statutory powers.

And the keyless-entry argument is a separate issue. Having a badge, uniform, or law enforcement job doesn't automatically establish that someone has access to a particular building.

You're arguing terminology; I'm distinguishing legal authority. Those are two different arguments.

u/Accomplished-Idea358 27m ago

ICE are not members of the police union. They are federal agents, not police.

-159

u/kingtacticool 9h ago

They got an app on their phone that locks and unlocks the door. Whomp whomp

56

u/Affectionate_Step863 9h ago

no, they in fact do not

that is some of the most made up sounding shit I've ever heard

-7

u/CD338 8h ago

I mean thats not crazy technology. Cars equipped with onstar can do it.

8

u/Affectionate_Step863 8h ago

sure, in general, but please provide a single source verifying their use on police/ICE vehicles, I cannot find a single source which supports your claim

-5

u/CD338 8h ago

I'm not making any claim. You just made it sound like its so impossible. The tech is already readily available.

Have you been in a car before?

-81

u/JamesTheJerk 9h ago

Have you yet to use a door that has a lock on it?

-98

u/JamesTheJerk 9h ago

Yes. Normally I'd shut the door and then lock it.

61

u/Bears-on-Drugs 9h ago

Lmao, sounds like you locked your reading comprehension inside a car with you outside of it.

He's saying lock the ICE agent out of his car while his keys are still inside of it and the ICE agent is not inside of it.

-27

u/JamesTheJerk 9h ago

Yeah. Another commenter explained that peculiarly just before you did.

36

u/Bears-on-Drugs 9h ago

Im not reading all the comments of you doubling down on your lack of reading skills. Im responding to the dumb one you posted 7 minutes before my reply

-25

u/JamesTheJerk 9h ago

Don't care. Reading is on you.

27

u/A3HeadedMunkey 9h ago

Is this one of those irony things? Where you didn't comprehend the reading, but now you're telling others they need to spend their time catching up with your failures?

Wouldn't you shut the door first?

u/QuarkstoLaniakea 9h ago

How are you going to lock the shut door of a car you don't have a key to?

-7

u/JamesTheJerk 9h ago

I don't know what doors you're into, but I can tell you this: if a door isn't shut, it can't be locked.

u/Brinwalk42 9h ago

The officer was driving towards them, he turned his wheels to face him. By their own reasoning the whistleblowers life is being threatened.

Rene was shot and the man in the Bronx was shot while being in the same position as someone whose reaction isnā€™t to be scared but to whistle louder.

16

u/ObamaTookMyPun 9h ago

Officer? What officer? I only see a masked goon.

u/maaaatttt_Damon 9h ago

You see though, the whistler ainā€™t no bitch.

u/LhandChuke 10h ago

I generally find auditors annoying. But this guy has the right idea. That whistle is really helpful.

u/_ZoeyDaveChapelle_ 2h ago

There were free whistles everywhere in Minneapolis.. local restaurants, bars, etc. participated. Viva la Whistle!

13

u/juggling-monkey 9h ago

when he got to the other side he should locked the door and closed it then skipped away blowing his whistle

u/xkonerox 9h ago

Looks like he gave you cause to defend yourself in way that they would not find ironicā€¦.

u/uniqueusername311 9h ago

Obviously. ā€œBorrowingā€ a car from anyone is risky. But that is the joke.

u/SquireSquilliam 9h ago

Except, things do happen. People get shot, Alex Pretti got shot for less. People go missing in ICE "custody." Lawyers can't find them, family can't find them, ICE "can't" find them. This is how fascism starts. So please forgive people if they decide they don't want to wait for the end result of a full fascist takeover before getting involved.

u/ins0mniac_ 9h ago

Until they shoot and kill you with impunity.. like they have killed several American citizens and god knows how many immigrants at their concentra-.. I mean detention centers.

u/geekmasterflash 9h ago

It's only real fascism if it comes from the German school of police brutality. Everything else is just sparkling domestic artisanal authoritarianism.

u/AwesomeBrainPowers 9h ago

Kweenick thinks that the ability to play a prank on an out-of-shape agent of state violence and not face immediate charges somehow invalidates the fascist crackdown of an insane would-be authoritarian's paramilitary hit squad that literally murdered a man in the fucking street.

u/buttononmyback 9h ago
