Because much commentary is now being posted about the killing of a man in Minneapolis today by armed and masked federal agents, and because my previous thread about this today has grown long, I'm starting a separate thread about this now.

@alex_p_roe @wdlindsy Prof Snyder says that Minneapolis was targeted because they have the largest immigrant population in the country and Minnesota has a well functioning welfare state. They truly take care of each other.
@MiriShuli @wdlindsy Yes, Trump and his ilk detest any money whatsoever being spent on any kind of welfare - they want a return to medieval times. They have zero humanity despite claiming to be Christians.

"And that just looked like a flat out execution. I mean, even if the man was trying to struggle, even if as early... early reports from DHS are that he had a gun.
There's just no way that he could have, with that many people on top of him, really be a threat that would justify that kind of use of force."
@wdlindsy similar to the George Floyd case in which four officers were on a handcuffed victim.
