Agents surrounded the man and child in his car before firing multiple rounds, according to Zohran Mamdani

A US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent shot a man in New York City on Thursday afternoon, according to the city’s mayor, Zohran Mamdani.

Early reports indicated that agents had surrounded the man and a five-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds, the mayor said in a statement on Thursday evening. The child was physically unharmed, according to Mamdani.

The individual who was shot was conscious and taken to a hospital, the NYPD said in a brief statement.

    Conservatives are celebrating this shit. They desperately want us to finish the civil war while they hold the military.

    No matter how this turns out, I will never, ever forgive any conservative. Their lives are 100% valueless to me now. It feels insane that I spent decades being so friendly and polite with them.

    I devote the remainder of my life to ending as many of theirs as I can (within the bounds of the law, of course). There is no such thing as a good conservative anywhere on earth. They are ALL truly, deeply evil.

    Fired 8 rounds next to a child, it’s a fucking miracle that the kid is ok. Now they’ve got the guy under lock and key so he doesn’t tell people how disgusting they are.

        Nope. Now he will likely grow up and show the effects of the trauma and the same people who cheered this will complain because he’s not “normal”.

    This only ends when cops arrest any ice agents they see and charge them with criminal conspiracy.

    We can’t keep pretending this is anything else, because Trump’s obviously going to step it up before the election, and then have ICE at polls to keep people away.

        Another brand new account telling people nothing will work so we shouldn’t try anything?

        It really is “30 days of midterms” already, isn’t it?

        No one is going to fall for this shit again

          Look at my comment history. I am telling people to act, and to do MUCH more than just vote. Voting is just the first step. Not erasing the enemy will result in our deaths by genocide. There is simply no peaceful way out of a conservative infestation.

          As long as conservatives continue to live, they will continue to kill the normal people. We are not permitted to discuss how to stop them here on Lemmy, so use your imagination. There is no way out of this that involves this infestation continuing to exist.

          It’s time to be proactive in removing the problem. We must get our hands very dirty. We must be extremely aggressive and precise. We must act against our enemy independently and locally, without relying on coordination with others. Be discrete. Be merciless. Be prolific.

      NYPD could do the funniest by actually protecting people and regaining some confidence from the public.

      The same police who are supplying ICE “agents”? And/or who implicitly agreeing with and ignoring the presence of ICE in their own city? I’m sure this will resolve quickly, then!

        1. Tell cops to arrest ICE

        2. Arrest cops who refuse with every imaginable charge

        3. Count on cops to be cowards

        You’re also drastically over estimating how much cops like ICE. Assholes rarely like other assholes showing up, it’s a territory thing.

        But like …

        What the fuck is your alternative? Just do nothing and hope it works out?

        How about you go do that instead of telling people nothing will work so it’s pointless?

          I suppose you recognized the sarcasm…? But your response doesn’'t match reality, regardless. Where are all the ICE arrests and/or covictions?

          Even in “blue” or “purple” states, not seeing anything close to your claim… unless I’m missing something obvious?

            …

            I’m saying we need to do something, and your argument is we aren’t doing it?

            unless I’m missing something obvious?

            I think the issue is being able to put a couple thoughts together, you’re not missing any necessary information, you’re just not putting it together
