Willful disregard for human life is the legal term I believe.

[-] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Don’t forget utter incompetence.

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Incompetence isn't a crime outside of specific licensed and regulated roles. Willful disregard for human life is a crime

[-] tocopherol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

They are incompetent, but their violence, abuse and murder are deliberate.

I'd hate to die alone bleeding out on my steering wheel because of a fat, stupid, mentally deficient ICE agent who hates women decided I would be a stand-in for his mother that day.

[-] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 19 points 1 week ago

So basically this proves every ICE agent on the scene was an accomplice.

[-] arin@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Insane, wtf. She was a planned hit.

[-] ravenaspiring@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 week ago

New records from emergency responders obtained by The New York Times show that Good was not breathing but had an irregular pulse when local medics arrived at the scene, and had no pulse by the time they removed her from her car. This comes after an initial video captured by bystanders showed ICE agents screaming at a medic who offered help as Good lay dying in her car.

“Can I go check a pulse?” a man said after Good was shot, his hands in the air.

“No! Back up!” an ICE agent told him.

“I’m a physician!”

“I don’t care!” the agent replied, before another came up and said they had their own EMS on the way. They arrived and performed CPR on Good—who had two gunshots in her chest and one on her arm—before taking her to the hospital, where she later died.

That "I don't care!" is what my kids shout when they realize someone saw them doing something bad and they're angry, sulky, and trying to save face. My kids aren't murdering people though. Unless I just haven't caught them yet.

[-] ameancow@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I know deeply how infuriating this was to watch, and I'm pretty sure that as bad as it feels now... things will get worse before they get better, and then when they get better a lot of serious shit is going to happen to every masked asshole in that video.

Either the system will rebound and we will have justice, or the system will NOT rebound and we will go get our justice.

[-] Formfiller@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

The system has been empowering and looking the other way on right wing terrorist groups for decades. They systematically hunted down the leaders of the civil rights movements, they planted crack in the inner cities….all of our elected representatives send hundreds of billions of dollars to Israel to literally commit a genocide. The citizens of Israel have universal healthcare, free college and monthly payments per child from our tax dollars….our system is not fixable. There’s nothing good to rebound to the genocide is here now

[-] fodor@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 week ago

George Floyd showed otherwise tho. We got a conviction IIRC.

[-] bold_atlas@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

which is why they're terrorizing MN. They are undoing the BLM protests.

''if mass protests manage to get results then this is what will happen to your state.''

[-] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 week ago

and Breonna Taylor? we didn't there. and we didn't do anything to reform the system that killed them.

[-] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

IMO the point of the George floydd protests was justice system reform, not a conviction.

Seems like the people have to go bigger then the floydd protests to get that justice system reform we so desperately need.

Wait so she hadn't been shot in the head?

[-] BunScientist@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 week ago

No idea but some people have survived holes in their head.

[-] ravenaspiring@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 week ago

You can be shot in the head and survive. I don't have statistics, but there have been many who have survived.

A 28 year old at close range. A 14 year old. 47 year old. Etc.

The point is that Good had an outside chance and these bastards don't give a shit about people they've shot.

Some reports say she was shot twice in the chest and once in the forearm.

[-] Wilco@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 week ago

Its murder. They all conspired in a murder. Even the president wanted this to happen. Conspiracy to commit ... they didn't care who, so long as the violence ramps up

[-] Itdidnttrickledown@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

I don't care in this case is the difference between 2nd degree and 1st degree murder.

[-] DylanMc6@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago

We need more community defense (against ICE agents) classes now more than ever. For Renee Nicole Good. Seriously!

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

This is the America conservatives wanted.

[-] floofloof@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago

They still want it. Watching it play out pleases them.

[-] BetaBlake@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

I mean I feel like it's still an inarguable point as to WHY she was shot, but let's ignore even that part but why oh why did they deny her care after that? Can conservative sociopaths explain that part away, because they'll always argue about how she deserved it but did she deserve medical care?

Because at least actual cops still call an ambulance for you or let a Dr reach you

[-] tocopherol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

There are times cops have shot someone 30 or more times, who is clearly absolutely dead and they will still apply bandages and give CPR sometimes to give at least the impression of protecting life. To me the denial of medical care in this situation is even more proof of guilt than the shooting because they can argue they feared for their life in the moment, but they had ample time to provide aid and deliberately blocked it.

The murderer even went to check the body immediately after but then left, I would be unsurprised if he saw she was still potentially alive and they decided to block aid intentionally to make sure she was dead. I assumed she was shot in the face or head 3 or 4 times which would be unlikely to survive, but apparently she was wounded twice in the chest on the right side, once in the forearm and once in the head. I don't know the specific damage from the shot to the head, it's most likely she would have at least been in a vegetative state or have severe brain damage if she had lived, but to deny the chance of any aid for over ten minutes would seal the deal of a conviction for murder if I were a jury member in this case.

[-] JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago

Comment above says 2 chest, one arm

[-] BigBenis@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

It's not even a stretch of the imagination to come to the idea that they'd say, "she disobeyed, therefore she deserved to die".

They eagerly dehumanize anybody who diverges from their strict ideals. Remember how Kristi Noem admitted to shooting her dog dead because it behaved like the big untrained puppy that it was? She told that story because they believe that is a reasonable response to an untrained, young and full of energy dog being disobedient.

In their mind, Renee Good was no better and deserved no better than that dog.

We need to turn ICE members over to the Mexican cartels.

[-] reluctant_squidd@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 week ago

That’s some medieval shit if they just stood around while she died.

I’m not sure what laws can be thrown at this, though I expect whatever they are, they won’t be nearly enough to truly have a fraction of the appropriate justice served to all involved in her death.

then run away like the fucking cowards they are.

every single ICE agent in the nation is complicit in this gangnvio. they all should be locked and never see the light of day again.

the world will be a much better place when they are dead/locked in a dark cells without contact with the outside world

[-] pucker4676@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

That didn't happen with the Nazis and I doubt it'll happen with ICE.

It was a physician, not a medic.

[-] nyctre@piefed.social 4 points 1 week ago

Since they weren't in a hospital.. does the distinction matter? The provided care would've been the same, wouldn't it?

If anything a medic might actually have more first aid experience than a physician.

she was ALIVE FOR 20MIN. they dont want witnesses potentially to bite them in the ass later on. also most of them are likely the paramilitary groups that covenient disappeared around the time ICE started freely hiring.

[-] ProdigalFrog@slrpnk.net 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

We're going to need more community medics in the future who know how to treat life threatening bleeding. Our community put together a short guide on steps you can take to equip yourself with that life saving knowledge so you can help your own community.

Learn First Aid! ⛑️

It is equally, if not more important, to be able to keep yourself and others alive if they get hurt. This is a tremendously useful skill for anyone to learn, you can never have too many medics.

Tacticool Girlfriend provides a great introduction building a personal first aid kit, called an IFAK, which can deal with things like bullet wounds and other serious bleeding wounds. I also want to emphasize her recommendation of only buying medical gear from reputable sources (not Amazon!), such as North American Rescue to avoid fakes that could cost you your life.

But you'll need to learn how to use that equipment, too. The best resource for that is to take a local Stop The Bleed class, which are pretty widely available in most places. They may cost a small fee, but can also sometimes be free. Alternatively, if you cannot access a local class, this video by PrepMedic will give you a solid understanding of how to use Tourniquets and Gauze for wound packing.

Injuries are less harmful if they are tended to early. Learning first aid can help conserve resources when healthcare becomes unaffordable. Having several medics in case of harm by police is an extremely powerful morale booster during a protest that may become a police riot. When you become comfortable with the basics of first aid, riot medicine is the next suggested step.

Establish or join local Mutual Aid networks ✊

If you haven't already, get to know your neighbors. Mutual aid is a willingness to support and grow your community. This can include informal networks through friends, tenant/renter organizations, solidarity groups, and industrial unions.

These are groups using direct action to solve each other's problems. Building strong communities makes it difficult for fascism to take root. The actions of the government are going to hit every community hard, and the ones who build trust in each other and work together are most likely to survive. We've been building a list of resources in !inperson@slrpnk.net to help you on your way. Also check out this handy guide to find existing groups in your area.

This isn't only for your own community protection. Your ability to organize today will change the political landscape tomorrow. When revolution occurs, the social organizations that show the greatest resilience through the regime are the ones typically calling the shots when the dust settles. When it comes to elections, get out the vote drives are useless if most of the voters are fascists. At some point, you have to do grassroots political education if you don't want fascist candidates winning elections. Mutual aid networks are excellent forums not only for teaching each other good political ideas, but demonstrating them in practice.

Someone was on-hand that self-identified as a physician and they were kept away.

We need more community defense and self-defense (against ICE agents) classes now more than ever. For Renee Nicole Good. Seriously!

[-] DylanMc6@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago

We need more people who would help victims of these ICE raids in case ICE blocks the Medic.
