My neighbor was gunned down by ICE

[SchizoPolyGymnast]

It happened two blocks from my apartment building. I wasn't home when it happened but when I was driving home from an overnight, I came home to roadblocks, state police and news crews everywhere. A random roofer on the side of a building informed me some guy got shot and killed. I took a nap, woke up, and realized by city was a headline.

I can't read any articles about it because the comments are horrible.

I don't know how to respond or even if I am capable. I'm still living my normal life but I am waaaaay more sleepy, I am eating a lot more (hibernation?) and I'm more...snappy with people around me.

And I feel like I'm under-reacting. I can't bring myself to care about anything. I want to quit my job and be a hermit in my apartment.

This is my song that I'm playing on repeat right now.

So they are just killing people now for sadistic pleasure. Actually stupid, hopefully his family and friends could do something. Why do these guys somehow get more privileges than the police? (whom aren't good either and similar in abuse of power, it's just that these guys can do whetever the hell they want with no punishments whatsoever while fucking in a police service can cost you if you are really stupid)

It is probably best to detach yourself that's just crazy for your mind.

I'm not sure how I would react. I'm sorry you're going through this, OP. I have written the country off and am trying my damnedest to GTFO. If you can get a trade or exploit some ancestry to emigrate, I would. This country might turn around for a little while, but the mechanisms that put all this into motion will continue to degrade this place as years go by. It is my view that we have passed the point of no return.

I am sorry that your neighbor was murdered by ICE. Horrifying. If you live in either of the two states in the headlines within this past week regarding the two murders by ICE then I know what you are speaking of. Your entire neighborhood and community is experiencing a trauma so you are not alone. Just do what you can do.

Yes, I live in Biddeford, ME. Most people in Biddeford are rising to the occasion and supporting the family. Those that aren't are staying quiet. Meanwhile, the comments sections online are all rotting bubonic plague infested pus filled abscess...in a sewer. People are being absolutely awful to the family and to the people who were witnesses. Posting laugh emojis, memes, making jokes about ice, etc.

This is so horrible. Rest in peace to your neighbor. I hate how ICE keeps getting away with murder

ICE is just a sad and poorly hidden excuse to kill people. Citizen or not. It baffles me how nobody does anything about it too, because everyone is powerless when the president himself supports this abuse and murders. I hope you're doing okay, it's ok to not reach much, it can be pretty surreal and shocking. Stay strong.

Ignore the online trolls. Find the good and kind people. Be safe. It's devastating.
