"Well ICE broke his rib a week ago so that proves he's a trouble maker!"

...

. . .

Maybe. I don't know. This is going to sound crazy but maybe it shows that ICE has been trying to kill him for a whole week instead?

I mean, if he'd so much as given an ICE employee cause to stumble resulting a self-inflicted paper cut we'd KNOW. So it sounds like ICE broke his rib and he didn't shoot them then either.

Even though, you know, self defense and all that.

Anyways.

This is all obvious I hope?

But I just needed to say it for myself.

Because they are really trying "ICE broke his rib so he's violent"

No. no no no. Try that again. **Who** is violent based on that evidence?

This is "You can tell she's a mouthy wife from all them bruises" levels of BS.

@futurebird bootlicking is a helluva drug.

@burnitdown

I expect they use shoe polish like tooth paste.

... it's a pity really ...

But, he was not that kind of man.

@burnitdown

Putting those little "fresh shoe" balls in their mouth at night because the boot is lodged so deep they can't get it out and it's the only way to freshen their breath.

@futurebird when i first hear about it it was framed as "they've had beef with this guy and his ultimate murder may well have been wilfully targeted (implication: premeditated)" but yeah i can see the fash spinning it this way too

@futurebird Abuser and fash logic is that if someone is a victim, they did something to deserve it, and it's morally right and a social good to revictimize them. DARVO is an instinctive response. This factoid will be persuasive to this type of person.

@corbden @futurebird

FACT

also:

right out of the abuser's playbook

i didn't do it

if i did it was your fault

if you would just obey me this wouldn't happen

if you keep defying me this will continue to happen

@samiamsam @corbden

"if you keep defying me this will continue to happen"

But it will also keep happening if you don't so... not worth listening to anything said by anyone like this.
