Labaneās whole schtick is to pretend that America is a country where the law applies equally to all, without fear or favour, rather than admit that itās a country where the rich and the Nazis can do whatever the fuck they want and only one real law applies, the law of whatever Trump wants.
Labane is role playing a fake āintellectualā character who is pretending things are ānormalā and gets a thrill from doing it.
Iām sure there were a lot of people like this in Nazi Germany who were very big on insisting it was a lawful state and everything that was happening was perfectly normal.
Ironically Labaneās schtick a decade ago was to trumpet himself as the sort of firm, morally unimpeachable character who would have stood up against the Nazis. Iām not sure what thread that schtick was in but it definitely should have been in the Dreams thread.
Like the cops who killed George Nkencho in Dublin?
Just accept you are wrong and move on. Derek Chauvin is serving 20+ years for murdering a civilian in the same city, that would further suggest you have no clue what you are talking about. State law doesnāt care whether you are local law enforcement, a Fed from in state like this guy, or a Fed from out of state,
Letās see how it pans out. I would expect he will be charged, unless the state prosecutor thinks they canāt win the case.
A coalition of left wing radicals, cabinet of Paul Murphy, Ruth Coppinger, Claire Daly, Mick Wallace, Boyd Barrett, and a few of the resident nutcases on here. Drive those pesky American multinationals out of Ireland and build a socialist utopia, the Cuba of the north Atlantic.
Vance, the absolute moron, seems to decide this is the incident to try get himself front and centre. Trump might be senile and addled but is far shrewder than him. The don coming out to with some random stuff this week including going after arms companies from waste and now capping credit card interest rates. Heās not going to criticize this shooting but so far heās fairly avoided it.
They released the footage, not to disprove the shooting, even if it shows a slight collision that ice agent had no business standing in front of a vehicle and then clearly had no control when shooting. So why release it? They are pulling at a thread they think will be enough by showing the lady killed not as a mother of one caught up in something by accident but as an aggressive protestor. She had every right to protest and he there but that bit of confusion and incitement of their base they hope will be enough to muddy it. It shouldnāt, but the left would want to calm down and just ask for an explanation and for justice. The hyperbole does nothing for them.
As we see already, the word Nazi used so much it has lost all impact and meaning, when low and behold there are as close as you will ever get to Nazis in the administration now in noem and miller. But when you cry wolf for years, you now are ignored.
