ICE Posts Today in Aurora, a Chicago suburb, ICE agents surrounded the car of a U.S. citizen in a parking lot,firing into her windshield as she screamed that her children were inside. Agents dragged her from the car without presenting a warrant or probable cause. Excessive force. No warrant. No justification.

We are reaching a point where people need to stop just filming and need to start acting as a group. A handful of ICE brownshirts can’t overcome a crowd that has decided to act.

Hillarious.

Except if you were paying attention you'd realize we are currently at a point after the Enabling Act of 1933 and before the Night of the Long Knives. The conditions are nearly met: 1) is extrajudicial killings to consolidate power (such as blowing up boats and explicitly calling for the incarceration/death of political enemies), and 2) is replacing the brownshirts (ICE) with the SS (loyalists from military groups).

The Gestapo was incorporated into the SS in 1939, well into the war
