A 21-year old anti-ICE protester has been left permanently blinded in California after a Department of Homeland Security agent shot him in the face with a nonlethal round at point-blank range on Friday.

Kaden Rummler can be seen on video rushing to help a fellow protester at Civic Center Plaza in Santa Ana before being shot by a federal agent. He crumples to the ground in a heap, covering his face before an officer drags him away by his hoodie. Rummler’s aunt said he was left with a fractured skull and shards of plastic, glass, and metal stuck all throughout his eyes and face, and would have died if not for the six hours of surgery he went through.

“That could have cost him his life,” Jeri Rees told the Los Angeles Times. “But now, for the next six weeks, he can’t sneeze or cough because it could do a lot of damage.… The other officers were mocking him, saying, ‘You’re going to lose your eye.’”

Sadly history shows that no matter the evil, the average footsoldier does not get what's coming for them.

Look at what happened to the SS agenta. Hell just look at the Nuremberg trials. We've had the chance to eradicate fascism and went easy on them, putting bullshit "international relations" above making sure the scum of humanity with the worst of ideologies is truly gone.

Like, imagine having a beautiful garden. You look away for a moment and bam, it's full of weeds, weeds trying to kill off all the flowers and produce. Do you just pull a few weeds, trim the rest back, and call it a day?

No, you take care of ALL the weeds, and take steps to ensure they don't come back.

That I why I figure that if there is a civil war, I will shoot to kill and double tap fallen MAGA during battle, unless they offer surrender. Nuremberg only executed 210ish Nazis, despite the rank and file being the hands of evil.

This sucks. 😩

And then the dandelions come back anyway.

Dandelions are your friend!

They fix hard nutrient poor soil and are entirely edible. There's even some evidence they can help with PMS symptoms when consumed.

Not if you do it right.
