The only video I could find of events leading up to the shooting was this one (if you want to add on to the comment): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4qBLgk9hWw

Link to the actual video showing a bit of what was happening before the shooting:
It looks like that video is from a different incident.
According to the Chicago Tribune, Martinez was driving a silver Nissan Rogue (not a truck and not a Chevy).

In the video you linked, it looks like a Chevy is ramming the ICE truck.
Note: If you watch the video to the end you can see that the police lights are coming from the truck itself.
If you’re in California, flying the California flag is probably the best option here.
“Original”… except at least the video in this article doesn’t have vertical video syndrome where the sides are cropped out. The quality is definitely lacking though.
1543·1 year agoI’m not sure that there’s any aspect about this news that’s truly “uplifting”.
The title is missing a key point here:
US Supreme Court let’s Trump’s transgender military ban take effect | while appeals continue.
This isn’t a final decision if you took it that way.
The easy solution is to just disable overdraft protection, and that’s exactly what will happen.
Except that Hunter Biden wasn’t convicted/pardoned for anything related to this.
Jurors found Hunter Biden guilty of lying to a federally licensed gun dealer, making a false claim on the application by saying he was not a drug user and illegally having the gun for 11 days.
Thanks! It doesn’t work through a regular web browser or with Voyager.
Looks like it does work with Eternity as well though.
Was that supposed to be a spoiler tag? What client does that work with?
We have a little more information now and it is interesting:
The article starts with:
The Hawaii man suspected in former President Donald Trump’s assassination attempt on Sunday is a long-time Democrat, donating exclusively to the party’s candidates 19 times since 2019, records show.
Then later on it mentions:
Routh, 58, claimed in other social media posts that he supported Donald Trump in his first presidential campaign in 2016 — but later became disillusioned after his chosen candidate won office.
The article you linked was updated, looks like he did have a gun and was spotted while aiming through the fence:
Investigators found the suspect had left behind his “AK-style” rifle, as well as two backpacks, one of which contained ceramic tile, at the scene, Bradshaw said.
Yep, I definitely misunderstood that. Thanks for pointing that out.
It’s not a perfect system by far and I’m not arguing that.
But we’ve already seen how removing all privatization from an economy leads to worse outcomes because we have less options, less innovation, and more monopolies.
In my opinion we need to find a balance between the two systems that works best for everyone. Arguing for either extreme doesn’t make sense (in my opinion). I would rather see if we can come up with some other solutions that are better than the current system.
“Always” is a pretty strong word here. In some cases this is true, but in others it’s not.
For example, if you live in an area where all of the public schools are terrible, you’re going to want to look for other options. If the private schools in your area are way better (and hopefully affordable) then you would want to send your kids there. Public schools can also compare/see what private schools are doing that’s working, and update their policy/curriculum to improve themselves.
Privatizing public libraries is a terrible idea and is currently happening at an alarming rate in the U.S.
Removing all privatization from the entire economy is where we end up with command economies or communism which means that we end up with a lot of monopolies. There isn’t much of an incentive for innovation in those economies. Then you’re either living under some crazy dictatorship, or the country is falling apart and they are forced to change how their economy works.

Circular reporting is just one thing that can make this more difficult. Checkout the cycle in this xkcd:
