      8th amendment concerns protecting you from cruel and unusual punishment. Trump and DHS are actively lying to the American people.

      The punishment for violation of the law isn’t immediate death, no matter how much these people and their supporters suggest. You shouldn’t be killed for disobeying ICE.

      I’ve seen multiple angles of the video, ICE murdered a woman committing a Y turn to leave a situation. Even if he was in danger of the vehicle running him over, he for one put himself in that position, and then two decided to immediately fire into the face of an unarmed person driving a vehicle. Then they prevented any and all medical aid being rendered.

      There is no justification, this was an execution as punishment.
