We break down the Minneapolis ICE shooting with a timeline, the limits of the video, and how perception and tactics shape split-second choices. We weigh compliance, team communication, and the media narrative while calling for evidence before verdicts.
• Setting the scene and timeline of the shooting
• Parsing the shaky video and poor audio
• What officers knew about the firearm
• Control tactics versus “beating up” myths
• Communication when a weapon is secured
• Compliance and split-second threat perception
• Personal example of de-escalation through compliance
• Tactical trade-offs between swarming and perimeter
• National ICE context versus local politics
• Why waiting for body cams matters
