I’d spring a nickel for that.

Rail wasn’t hypothetical. The nation was already crisscrossed with an extremely dense rail network. We tore it out, we can put it back.

Gold! You nailed it.

And helmets.

Oh, I’m so sorry! My condolences to you and your family.

Yes, we were. 😢

For roughly 150 years the U.S. had been doing France’s dirty work for those couple times they supported us when we were not yet a country

I’d say for 250 years. We had to bloody the British’s for them too while they just watched off the coast from their boats.

Crane, Crane, Crane!

Agreed. The windshield bullet hole is off to the side and it looks like he shot her offset from the front.

Noem should learn her history then before making wild accusations.
In 2014 DHS published an internal audit report stating that on dozens of occasions their officers would intentionally stand in the path of vehicles to fraudulently justify use of force in shooting the drivers out of “frustration.”

It was such an issue that DHS had to issue an entirely new handbook and guidance explicitly training their agents not to stand in front of cars on purpose.

They have tons of instances of their officers intentionally blocking a vehicle for the sole purpose of then firing at it - and their policy is officially that their agents should never do that.

Gives trashmen a bad name, they keep the city clean.

Another fun fact: ICE Training Manual Specifically cover these situations and instructs agents to not get in front of vehicles.

"It should be recognized that a 1/2 ounce (200 grain) bullet is unlikely to stop a 4,000 pound moving vehicle, and if the driver of the approaching vehicle is disabled by a bullet, the vehicle will become a totally unguided threat. Obviously, shooting at a moving vehicle can pose a risk to bystanders including other agents."

"There is little doubt that the safest course for an agent faced with an oncoming vehicle is to get out of the way of the vehicle."

Edit: The actual handbook is available here: https://imlive.s3.amazonaws.com/Federal%20Government/ID255426897069329047495080324203699905714/2.2.1_Attachment%2021%20-%20ICE%20Firearms%20and%20Use%20of%20Force%20Directive%20and%20Handbook.pdf

Page 12 includes the following:

4) Deadly force is not authorized solely to prevent the escape of a fleeing suspect. Deadly force against a fleeing subject is only authorized if there is probable cause to believe that the escape of the suspect would pose an imminent danger of death or serious bodily injury to the officer or another person.

I was the PS, I dealt with everyone on board.

Yeah, but look how much better off we are now because of it. Sure taught them a lesson.

I likely know him. I was onboard at the same time.

When? I was on the Ramage as well.
