      What high road?

      I am talking about people having a human moment during a medical emergency.

      Maybe you could watch someone die in front of you, but I couldn’t.

      I could kill someone if I needed to but there is a difference in defending yourself when you are in mortal danger and letting someone die.

      If we become the monsters they think we are, then we won’t fix society, we will guarantee the schizm poisons the next generation when the battle is over.

          No. I feel miserable for Alex but maintain my position. That said, should any of the ICE agents been shot right there by anyone on the street whilst commiting a crime I wouldn’t have anything negative to say about their shooting.

        ice is an enemy to which we can give no quarter. they have declared that they can came into our houses, any one of us, with no warrant, no proceedure, nothing but what they decide based on a list of criteria they will not make public, and kidnap us.

        fuck ice. they are destroying families and communities, they are using children as ‘bait’ .

        they cannot be saved.

        let them bleed out.

          I said it in a other comment.

          I don’t think the world is a better place when a 1st grade teachers gut reaction is to watch someone in a medical emergency die.

            I don’t think the world is a better place when a 1st grade teacher saves the fascist and they go out and kidnap a 1st grader to use as bait to send their parents to a death camp in El Salvador.

            In a vacuum it’s the good thing to help someone else in need. In this case the person you’re saving is causing active harm to others.
