Someone literally writes "Anti-ICE" on a bullet casing with what looks like a Sharpie? Is this The Onion? And shoots detainees because they hate ICE? Does that make any sense to anyone?
Here's a better theory: ICE killed a couple of detainees and they couldn't even stage a "fake attack by leftists" story. Motivation makes no sense and multiple people are dead including, conveniently, the sniper.
In your pants-on-head-with-shit-in-pants theory, where did they get the sniper corpse from?
Yeah, they took it one step too far there with the fake sniper, but this story has very obviously been falsified.
What seems to have happened here is some far right nutjob killed a bunch of detainees because it's not enough that immigrants get deported, no, they have to fucking die (and if you don't think that's plausible you've not been paying attention). Then the people at ICE decided that the last thing they wanted was for this to increase sympathy for immigrants so they hastily scrawled "ANTI-ICE" (about the least plausible "Fuck you" anyone has ever put on a munition... That'd be like some Tommy in WW2 writing "ANTI-GERMAN" on his grenade... No, you write something funny like "Catch!") on single cartridge out of a stack of five, using a sharpie from the front desk, because they saw it in the news recently with the Charlie Kirk stuff and figured it would seem plausible.
They also invented that ICE shot three detainees, two of whom are SURVIVING WITNESSES. Don't encourage this bullshit. Just wait for the facts.
But who was snipster?!
