Why are maga[redacted] like this?

I mean, there is a tiny sliver of "your actions have consequences" in this tragedy. But of course only a tiny, tiny one. So that chap wanted to protest the actions of ICE. Fair enough, what they are doing is at least highly questionable. And protesting is one's constitutionally protected right. All good on that account. He also knew that ICE troopers tend to be a bunch of poorly trained and poorly led trigger happy neanderthals. After all, *them being like that was very likely the reason he went out and protested in the first place.* Which makes his decision *to carry a firearm on his person while actively protesting the actions of ICE* a bit... unwise, to put it mildly. Never mind that the victim legally possessed that firearm, and that he was legally allowed to carry it. If you foresee the possibility of an altercation with goons like that, it would seem a lot wiser to do so unarmed. Especially in a place like the U.S., with its insanely trigger happy gun culture. Not that this makes the murder of the protester less of a murder, mind you. Those ICE guys executed someone who got on their nerves. That must not happen, and must have consequences for those who pulled the trigger. But IMHO there is a tiny, tiny bit of Darwin award in all this as well.
