Consequences for your own actionw are so sweet.
“Second” thoughts you say? I would love to hear of his thoughts in the First place.
Dumbass
Only having second thoughts? Dude must love being a cuck.
Latinos are the new “black”.
Getting pulled over for DWB (Driving While Black) is a new concept for them.
Welcome to the club.
I dunno… I grew up in southern Arizona, and getting pulled over for Driving While Brown has kind of always been a thing. Latinos have always been harassed by cops, going all the way back to the Zoot Suit Riots and Marijuana prohibition and long before. This country has never been nice to Latinos. Though it does seem to be getting much worse.
“And they just got out of the car with the guns in their hands and say, turn off the car, give me the keys, open the window, you know,” Machado said. “Everything was really fast.”
Machado said the officers told him the name of a man for whom they said they had a deportation order, and who had purportedly given Machado’s home address. He said he offered to show his Virginia driver’s license—a Real ID requiring proof of lawful status to acquire—but “they didn’t ask for any ID.”
“I was telling the officer, if I can give him ID, but he said just keep my hands up, not moving,” Machado told Quiñonez. “After that, he told me to get out of the car and put the handcuffs on me. And then he went to me and said how did I get into this country and if I was waiting for a court date or if I have any case. And I told him I was an American citizen, and he looked at his other partner like, you know, smiling, like saying, can you believe this guy? Because he asked the other guy, ‘Do you believe him?’”
Congratulations, sir. You have successfully avoided being beaten or shot by ICE officers because you kept calm and followed instructions. Now let your mind wander to how the scenario will play out when they pull over your teenage son or daughter. Will your child stay calm? Or will they be terrified and panic and do something that gives the officers the excuse they need to beat them bloody or even kill them?
You voted for hate. You got it.
You mean he got lucky and didn’t receive conflicting orders like "keep your hands up and lay on the ground. " Your only option is to face plant, but the fast movement of doing that will scare the officers too.
One of the most horrific things I’ve ever seen.
Out of the other 10000 most horrific things I’ve seen done by cops.
Now let your mind wander to how the scenario will play out when they pull over your teenage son or daughter.
Conservatives are literally unable to feel empathy
Conservatives can often learn to feel 1 specific form of empathy, but only after it personally affects someone in their life and only for that single issue.
Don’t forget lucky that the officers didn’t start giving conflicting commands. Yelling “freeze” and “put your hands up” then shooting and later claiming “oh I thought he was reaching for a weapon, I feared for my life.”
That reminds me of that murder of the homeless guy by those cops video that was circulating years ago.
Makes me think of the shooting of Daniel Shaver. They kept yelling out commands that even a sober person couldn’t understand (Shaver was intoxicated during the incident).
I wouldn’t recognize and ice vehicle, and I’d assume I’m about to be carjacked or worse.
Machado said he was uncuffed and immediately released after the officers saw his identification. The two men with him were taken into custody. Machado said he does not know why.
Narrator-
“It will probably forever remain one of the great unsolved mysteries of the universe.”
MAGA folks never care about cruelty until it affects them, then they cry for mercy and compassion. To them the damaging human consequences are either justice, religious imperative, or necessary cost - until they are the ones paying. Now they reap the fruits of their indifference or often full-on support of the suffering of others. I still feel bad for the innocent, like children or those who have opposed this malevolent chaos from the beginning.
Yep - the GOP over the last few decades tossed away any morality and took the easiest path they could for coalition building, assembling the stupid, bigoted, gullible, and most importantly - least empathetic bunch of people. Literally tossing away conservative ideology and specifically preying on these people’s weaknesses.
assembling the stupid, bigoted, gullible, and most importantly - least empathetic bunch of people.
To me the one of the funnier things is these same people who whine endlessly about the oppression by political correctness getting upset about being called deplorables or plain ol’ stupid.
Those who show no mercy deserve no mercy, especially from their own goons.
No, no, they were “lied to.” We have to just sweep their cruelty under the rug because they get it now 🥺
There’s going to be a lot of that. I live in the Southwest, and the number of Trump-voting Latinos is shockingly high. There are a lot of conservative Latinos who straight up consider themselves to be white. Gonna be a real shock for them when it finally sinks in what the rest of their party thinks about that.
Bingo. They are going to be so Pikachu face when they realize, whoops, we are not in the club!
Latino voter implies that they are citizens. So when they hear something like “stricter immigration laws” they think it doesn’t apply to them because they have the documentation that says they are citizens. But none of that matters when ICE pulls you over at gunpoint for looking illegal.
They believed they were the exceptions. Because they got theirs. It’s all those other illegals that are bad.
It’s more like, “I went through it the hard, legitimate way. It took me years. And then these people just hop the fence and get me in trouble for it?”
There’s a good NYT - The Interview podcast about it. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/15/magazine/ruben-gallego-interview.html
When we come home from the beach we go through an immigration checkpoint. My friend always says, “OK everyone. Try to look white.”
Second thought would mean he ever thought in the first place
SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS
Sounds more to me like he’s having his first thought.
Hope this happens a LOT more to these selfish imbeciles.
Wow, leopards with guns, scary
