Boycott US
Overview:
The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.
Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.
America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.
America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

As much as I 100% believe that ICE executed this man in broad daylight in front of hundreds of witnesses, I don't think that first picture is very persuasive. I don't see a gun in that first picture, neither in the waistband nor in the hand of the agent. I see some blotchy, blocky dark chunks of vague outlines almost obliterated by JPEG artifacts. (Or is it MPEG? All these FLAWs confuse me.) The second photo is clearly showing that there is no gun at the waist, and that the agent is about to fire on a man that is clearly facing away from him and under control of other agents. But that first picture? Shows me nothing.
You are right that in the first picture alone, you cannot clearly see what is on the waist that the guy in the gray jacket tries to grab/hold. However the screenshots are meant to show moments from the video, and in the video it is more clear that the gray jacket guy tries to take out the gun, which is also shown by him being the one who walks away with the victim's gun at the end (can be seen from other angles)
Ah, I see. That makes more sense for sure.
