> Blame may be shared

Which is quite a move from "the onus is on you".

> but it really is on me to assess a risk of any given moment

Yes. And the situation we are talking about should clearly not be a situation that should be assessed as "life threatening". By your own admission, she put herself in a minor offense, not something that should be life-threatening. And the fact that the ICE agents carried guns does not justify that one should consider that any interaction with them means that they are putting themselves in life threatening situation.

> I admit that it must be nice thinking everyone else is responsible for me

Well, you are litterally the one here saying that the ICE agent should think everyone else is responsible for them.

No one else does that. I fully agree that people share some responsibilities in the situation they put themselves into. Where we disagree is when you are saying "the onus is on her". No, the onus is not on her: she put herself in a situation that should NOT be something that should be assessed as overly dangerous.

> You make me sound smarter than I am, but, really, you are just misunderstanding the argument ( not sure if on purpose or not ).

Your argument makes no sense at all. Your argument was also quite downvoted. Surely not because of a woke conspiracy, probably more because indeed your argument makes no sense. Maybe you should consider that maybe it is the case?

> You know what. I am all ears. I may simply be wrong. Present your evidence of the case as you see it.

I asked you first. My FIRST COMMENT: "What do you mean? For what I know, she was at the wrong place at the wrong time, did not do anything voluntarily illegal, and was in a situation where everyone should agree would never have had to degenerate into a life-threatening situation."

You never answered.

If you want the discussion to progress, first provide your answer first. I asked you three time to answer on this point.

edit: in another comment, YOU say: """ << can you give information about the case? (Which "videos"?)

No. Most of the stuff out there. I am already wasting time on HN. I won't also google this stuff for you ( or w/e equivalent you use ). """

You are so full of it. Someone says "present your evidence" when you explicitly said there are videos and you refuse, and here, you are asking exactly "present your evidence".

Before I present my evidence, apply to yourself what you put to others, just strong-man the discussion and try yourself to find element that support my way of seeing the situation.

Friend. I don't care what you downvote. I have seen what you vote for. In a sense, I don't even have a need to convince you here. Life will go on with or without this argument proceeding. Allow me to demonstrate.

End of communication.
