  1. There was a better video showing the guy in front who shot but I’m having trouble finding it on YouTube.

  2. It’s not clearly self defense. Possibly self defense at best.

    I will visit my podiatrist in about one week and am confident this 3rd x-ray will show the break in the right foot filled in. Virtually all pain is gone, just an occasional twinge of discomfort. Hopefully full steam ahead. :cautious:

    A young mother spends her day driving around Minnesota- following ice agents agitating them.... she deserved death! That's what a Christian would say!

    I didn’t say she deserved death. Clearly that is wrong. But, she is at fault for her own death because of her attempted murder of a federal agent. She tried to kill a man, and he had a split second to react to save his own life. She was not an innocent bystander.

    I appreciate knowing the facts. The film is deceiving. There was an agent standing right in front of the car. But you can't see him at first. She was going right for him.

    I just want to clarify that I do think it is a trajedy and I wish it didn’t happen. But, it wasn’t murder.

    Agree. Truth is what we need. No good comes from obfuscating the truth to fit a narrative---on either side.

    You should explore the writings of Luisa Piccarreta whose cause for sainthood is steadily moving forward. They will bring great peace and hope to your mind and heart.

    My Catholic Grandfather was dying in hospital, succumbing to dementia. A few moments before he died, he sat up, looked with joy at something in the distance and seemed, to my father who was there, to be fully cognizant.

    This is always my first instinct now, because every time something gets sensationalized there is always an agenda. As in, how can an event be exploited/gamed for benefit. There are tragic acts of violence perpetrated daily in the US that we never hear of, but the media honed in on this event because they could manipulate it to fit their narrative.

    The outcome is that we all get worked up and divided. The fact that this event got as much press as it did, especially given that there is another video from an angle which shows her driving directly at an officer, shows how disingenuous the media is. She might have panicked, the officer might have panicked too, but the officers are trained to react by making split second decisions. Corrupt politicians create volatile situations and stuff like this eventuates and there is going to be a lot more of it in the future.

    So if there are going to be accusations made, they need to be made in the right direction. IMO the blood of this woman falls on Tim Walz and everyone else who pushed corruption in Minnesota. ICE is just cleaning up the mess.

    Similar experience with my mom when she was passing. She passed in our home where we cated for her on hospice Before going comatose for almost 2 days she has last right. Just at the end she looked around at all of us and nodded and smiled. And they she looked up to corner of room and saw something thst made her speak very clearly for first time in 2 days. She said " love you, love you, love you". Her eyes closed and she entered into eternity

    Yes, I've found the writings of Luisa Piceretta to be very helpful. The most helpful for accepting my situation. God's permissible will no matter how unbearable things are...

    A friend with such extreme sufferings says ppl often don't know what to do or say, rather than just sit with someone in their sufferings. We understand this about each other's sufferings.

    I've come to realise that not everyone will understand our sufferings also. This isn't an attack on anyone, but probably only those going thru similar things are gonna be the ones who really 'get it.'

    At least God made me realise this because only God has seen all I've been thru & has been with me thru these sufferings - much like the writings of Luisa Piceretta - that God is with us in our sufferings & He suffers with us.

    I've only shared on here my sufferings because I don't know who is reading & going thru the same thing with their parents & their family. Both my parents are abusive, narcissistic addicts. The only reason why they remained married is because they found someone else who enabled their evil. This is my truth, I accept it & surrender it to God. My words will find other ppl in this situation or have one parent like this...

    Forgiveness is easy when we think of it as an act of will. It never takes away from what happened.

    I agree. I was reading a news report earlier which said that the fatal shooting happened at 9.30am. Is that correct?
    If so, how had the woman spent all day driving around antagonising the agents?

    What if we are properly going into The Warning this year? While some may say it's not possible since this & that has to happen first, what if God allows it all to happen in a few days & there you go we're at The Warning.

    My number one concern are the children. An influencer with kids was going thru a martial breakup. I don't believe she was even separated while she was already lusting over her neighbour & made it publicly known. She's now divorced or separated from her hubby - is dating her neighbour. Now, her & the neighbour are trying for a baby.

    Imagine what these poor kids have to go thru, all the changes all at once. Then as a society we wonder why there are so many mental health issues. This isn't right & children are going thru such unnecessary evils... God will probably stop this all much faster than we think. The poor poor children who never even asked for this life to then be abused & killed etc.

    The Godly parents recognise their children's human dignity & pursue them the way Christ does. They fight for Holiness & a Holy & Sacramental foundation for their children.
