Houston homeowner shoots two "ICE agents" to death

Criminals
Nice try. Criminals have pretended to law enforcement for ever. You choose an isolated incident to make a broad case which doesn't track. :)
Criminals have pretended to be ICE agents and gone up to someone’s door demanding to be let in when?

I’m guessing you’ll again defend criminals.
 
I'm not a Democrat and what do we want? FREEDOM. Prosperity, safety, an economy that works, and a government free from self-serving corruption. Once, we Republicans had this.

We do NOT want soldiers patrolling our streets. That's what happens in Russia or China. Would you prefer to live in one of those countries? Sure, they may be "Safe..."
You need to take back the streets the Democrats handed to the unwanted part of society. Once that is accomplished we can all enjoy walking the streets of The United States and welcome law abiding visitors

LEts start with the obvious that shouldn't have to be said but apparently does. It is tragic when someone dies. Especially in a way that could easily have been avoided if really anybody did anything differently. However this was inevitable and I'm mildly shocked it has taken as long as it did. Assuming this is the first I'll admit I don't have the news on 24/7. One of the great things about my social media+Lit is that if something is remotely important I can reasonably expect someone to bring it up and I can just let something play in the background for other things.

Texas is a red state, lax gun laws and has that famous Castle Doctrine which makes it legal to kill people if you feel threatened. I would argue that once you start shooting at me you've forfeited your right to a pulse. That shit is 100% on you and I would expect someone to walk on this specific situation even in a liberal state. You started shooting at me and failed to properly prove you had a right to enter my home. Isn't this exactly what the Right claims the 2nd amendment is supposed to be for?

I also suspect that on some level the Trump Admin wanted this exact scenario though maybe on a larger scale with a much more grey and less black and white scenario. This to me is pretty black and white with little pity for the ICE officers outside sucks to be their family. But last I checked you can quite ICE. Hell you can refuse orders in the military and I think the sentence is 5 years. I don't have any real idea how often these happen or what the chances are of you actually serving the full sentence if this does happen but still. They put themselves in this situation.

The reason I think the Trump Admin wants this is they've made it pretty clear they want to have military in our streets, more police and not because they give a damn about safety for American citizens. They want control. One thing really even the most far left people in the US are very reluctant to say about LEAs is that the fucker got what he deserved. This is definitely a case where I will say with great feeling once you start shooting at me you are no longer a person and one of us isn't going home. Its that fucking simple. When police start dying people get to be very comfortable with things they weren't before. I'm old enough to remember when police were getting into gun fights with criminals using I believe it was armor piercing rounds. Whatever it was the police eventually got fed up broke into a local sporting good store and ended the encounter. Then we changed laws.

Obligatory Ronald Reagan stopped believing in the 2nd pretty quick when too many people of color were exercising it.
 
Trump wants martial law so that he can cancel elections. We could see his eyes light up when President Zelenskyy was explaining that to him.

So it's either military patrols in cities to combat some pretend crime wave, or it's a foreign war. It's your choice citizen and don't let them tread on you.

The paranoia is strong in this one. :)
