I’d put the blame on her first, then Trump / Noem for picking Minneapolis for a target in the first place and announcing their presence there, then the actual ICE officer.

Here’s a good summary (paywall removed by internet archive) https://archive.is/diLZf Quote Federal immigration agents in recent days have arrested dozens of refugees in Minnesota who had passed security screenings before being admitted to the United States, according to their lawyers and immigrant rights advocates. The arrests of the refugees, who are mainly from Somalia and include children, come after an announcement last Friday that the Trump administration would “re-examine thousands of refugee cases through new background checks,” focusing on people who have yet to obtain green cards after arriving in the United States. But that announcement, by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, did not say that the refugees would be subject to arrest and transfer to immigrant detention facilities. I may have mentioned this before, but reviewing somebody’s refugee case doesn’t require you to storm their neighborhood and whisk them away to Texas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wish we could all agree that both Good and Ross have culpability in this. It doesn't have to be- nor is it- that one side is right and the other is wrong I went over this with Tim the other day. If you want to say that he contributed slightly, fine. But her maneuver was the overwhelming move that place him there. In his video, he was well clear of the right front fender when she reverses. He was far enough away from the car to see her right front tire rotating backwards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My point is that they don’t need to be detained, period. Review the case. If you find they broke the law or there’s some other good reason to send them home, do so. They are arresting first, THEN opening their cases. They’re doing it backwards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He is far enough away that you can see the tires suddenly rotate rearward, he is then placed in front of the car by her angular movement rearward. In addition, in the original video from the left rear, you can’t even see him at all until she reverses, and then there he is in front. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HellToupee 2,384 Posted 42 minutes ago These Somalis don’t seem to like Nick Shirley. Good thing he brought security. These somali thieves can’t control their emotions “After my last video exposing over $110 Million in fraud Tim Walz dropped his run for reelection and multiple federal investigations were launched to stop fraud across the country. In this 51 minute video David and I expose another $16 Million in fraud as Minnesota welfare programs continue to operate fraudulently and steal from law-abiding taxpayers, Like it and share it around everywhere! Accountability and the law must come for the fraudsters and corrupt politicians who have let this happen. The fraud must end.“ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your argument seems to boil down not understanding camera placement and depth perception. When the right front tire starts rotating rearward and the car starts angling towards the officer at :37, he is not in front of the car. He’s so far away from the car that he can catch almost the entire tire in his camera frame. His position changes slightly, if at all between :37 and :38, when he’s ends up pretty much dead center with the Honda emblem. The car movement is overwhelmingly what puts him in front.
