Minneapolis again has become ground zero for a national controversy. In 2020, state police officers followed their training to a T when apprehending a worthless criminal and drug addict who died of an overdose, and they were convicted of murder in a kangaroo court that obeyed the mob rather than the law. In this new year of 2026, a federal ICE agent shot and killed a woman who was interfering with deportation efforts, and the mob again is howling for blood. Most people are missing the point by focusing on the dynamics of the incident, such as whether the agent acted in legitimate self-defense upon being struck by the woman's vehicle. That makes little difference to me because she was doing something far worse than threaten the life of a single man -- she was threatening the life of the nation, which is more important than any individual or even the federal government (which is meant to serve the nation). She was giving aid and comfort to foreign invaders, meaning that she was committing treason and deserved the death penalty. She got it swiftly, without the fanfare and wasted years of a trial and endless appeals and habeas petitions.
If this sounds harsh, consider how the people mourning the woman's death have celebrated the unjustified murders of Ashli Babbitt (who was unarmed and not a threat to anyone's life) and of Charlie Kirk (who was guilty only of hurting their feelings). Consider how these people have praised Luigi Mangione for the cowardly act of shooting an unarmed man in the back. No, I don't shed a tear when one of their kind is executed for treason. I just hope the dog in the back seat was unharmed.
