floofloofICE Threatened to Shoot Ambulance Driver Picking Up Injured Portland Protester, Medics Say
hopesdeadOkay, what if it was someone in ICE they are responding to? Do they deny the compassion to heal wounded people just because they think a EMT might pick political sides?
They would 100% do that if the roles were reversed, and thus they assume that yes, the EMTs would.
It is very difficult sometimes to remember these are people, too. Tells you a lot about how fucking stupid we can be.
We should strive to be better people, despite how much we dislike the organization or the people in it.
Yeah, they think we are lying when we say we don’t want to hurt them, even though we disagree with them. There is a reason they always think they are being threatened, cuz they would be threatening if they were in the same position, so they see our actions through that filter.
watsonThey are also fed a steady diet of lies about “left-wing terrorists”.
