feels like a lot of people are forgetting that the police aren’t supposed to go around killing people. extrajudicial killings undermine the judicial system and the fundamental right to due process

Because he is using his power to disrupt the peace. He’s hurting many many people and I do not stand for that. Your original argument was making an assumption that the poster isn’t angry by all of it. I’m speaking from my end on behalf of the poster that if i were that stupid wojak i’d be angry at everything besides trump because he is very directly causing harm to people

Just let the judicial process run its course. Since he was inaugurated, ice has shot 9 people under Trump’s presidency and only four have died. This number is quite small compared the number of homicides committed by illegal immigrants in 2024 under Biden’s presidency. If death must happen, it’s better for it to happen to less people. It’s like the classic example with people tied to the railroad tracks and the lever. There’s no correct answer, but one answer results in less people dying.

additionally, there are a LOT more immigrants than ice agents. it’s like how people would say 1 in every 23 people is a serial killer. If there are just 23 people, that means one serial killer. If there are 23 million people, that’s a million serial killers

Okay so US born citizens commit more crimes than illegal immigrants do. Ice agents still have killed less people than illegal immigrants. My point still stands.

The ICE website states that there are around 7100 ICE agents deployed in 220 cities throughout the US AND 80 overseas locations, so some of which aren’t even in the United States making the population even lower. There were 14 million illegal immigrants occupying the US in 2023, according to the Pew Research Center, likely lower than the actual population considering their lack of documentation. I don’t need to do the math to prove how that’s completely incomparable

Circling back to what we were initially discussing, the judicial process isn’t doing anything to Trump for one reason or another even though he has without a doubt put himself above the law. Whatever that reason, there is a high likelihood it has to to with the Trump administration abusing power, which just leads me back to my original argument

obstructing the law is illegal, but crime is for the courts to adjudicate. it doesn’t authorize or justify summary execution. that distinction is the entire point of due process. if lethal force is unavoidable, people would be talking about self-defense. instead, i see a lot of rhetoric about “deserved death,” which is a justification for punishment without trial, fundamentally undermining the judicial process

the legal test for deadly force requires objective imminence and necessity. based on available information, i don’t see that threshold being met. more broadly, defending extrajudicial killings undermines the separation of powers and due process. if administrative doctrines or fabricated immunities are being used (they are) to shield such killings from independent review, it creates a dangerous, legally corrosive, and profoundly ominous precedent.
