It's been a week since we watched an ICE agent shoot and kill Renee Nicole Good and then mutter "f*cking b*tch" at her. It's time we talk about the misogyny that's baked into ICE enforcement.
Thank you! The misogynistic angle seems so obvious it shouldn't need to be pointed out, but the fact that it hasn't been points to the fact that it should be shouted from the rooftops.
I think the extrajudicial killing trumps (no pun intended, I swear) the misogyny, but the fact that the “fucking bitch” quote has been so often reported with no reflection on it speaks volumes as to what an acceptable response it is.
As someone who has also had to learn to ration my spoons, I am grateful for your taking the time and effort to craft this thoughtful and articulate piece.
This difficult piece was beautifully written and incredibly insightful regarding misogyny. It captures 2026 America truthfully. What a tragic, pathetic society we have created despite all our achievements. How bereft I am over our commitment to money, power, and cruelty rather than humanity, tolerance, and kindness.
Very brave article and absolutely spot on. I believe from his own video that he was triggered by her saying she was not mad at him. You can see from that what a sunny person she was. At the same time her spouse (another woman) made a smart remark. Perfectly on target and clever, but she was a woman and he didn’t have a clever response. So he killed her wife. I counseled abused women for years and men who had been violent with spouses. I believe your analogy is spot on. And that we are in a lot of trouble in this country when the choice is a cover up, not even pretending to investigate. Releasing his video where he demeans her because the assumption is we will begin to accept this?
We all have a duty to stand up and speak out. I've been raised since I was a kid learning about WWII - now all the people who told us never to forget want us to look away. Nope.
Thank you for being one of the voices of truth and America's real values. Stopping the actions of ICE and the other deeply immoral actions of the entire Trump administration won't be easy. It won't happen quick enough. But we can make it happen. We must re-teach this administration and the whole population of America the values and principals that has made America great before, and will again if we will answer the call each and every one of us owe to each other.
As someone not fully on the left or right, I'm baffled how anyone could argue she was doing anything but trying to get away; and that the "officer" was shooting her in self defense. That was clearly personal.
If masked men with no ID swarmed my car with guns pointed, I'd be driving away too.
Plus, anytime a legitimate law officer shoots someone, they allow first aid once there is no threat, and protect the scene of the incident for a proper external investigation. This was about as illegitimate as you can get, and if that was "following procedures" as those in power claimed, ICE needs to be paused indefinitely while they overhaul their procedures to comply with actual law.
You know what's wrong with America, is it was built in slavery, not just African people Caucasian people too. Yeah the first people to be taken to the Americas, were Portuguese they were not black nor the Spanish, or the Irish and they were slaves.
In fact the first slaves, that were marketed in the world where gauls, gallics, gallias, and galileens, during the greekoroman Persian conquest of those area, and the that of gypty, what we call today Egypt. Black and white is just a construct, Black skin was forced on people, to give them the identity of being so subservient they could not protect themselves from the elements, that's why Muslims mask and cover up, not because they actually believe in women's modesty, they don't, it's so they can become white , because they have earned the privilege from escalating from slavery through to servitude, then to Manumission, to being allowed to hold a household, and that's just for the men, but they too cover up to regain their white statues, to show the indication they have never had to work in broad day light. Which is why Indians, thai, and other Asian countries, where the women bleach their skin, to reflect these ancient yet prevalent values.
The white western world has forgotten how it was made, you were manufactured, by Persian gold denaries, the slaves of the Persians was the tribe of Judah, the Iranian flag has a lion on it, and is a symbol that goes back to the sunmerians, no not all Jews today stem from Egypt, Judaica Jews are Persian and are great haters of the kush Jews those that stemmed from Galilee Egypt gaul and other garlic spoken people's.
Yes Latin was not the original language of the gaulish regions, of the westwardly Caucasian steppes we call today Europe, and the first black people, were Persian- Arabs. Ultimately the old testimony is the story of the Parsi speaking people migration from Iran to Egypt, out the Bible stories, are placed out of the sequence of order they happened in.
Parsi people were also known as Philistines they traversed through Asia and the Middle East, creating deserts as they went, destroying fertile lands with over deforestation, agriculture, and arabelfarming, look at the world map, those area in sand brown colours are areas where Parsi people destroyed the environment, in pursuit of metals and minerals, that weaponised their global conquest and financed it with currency, if gold and silver, the first use of coibafe was done round the area of Iran under the ignonomus rule of Darius the great, and his gold and silver has been found in areas of Greece Thrace, rome Italy minted for the greekoroman generals to buy support from other noble families of Europe, like the Lombards and the Habsburg, whom are still known of today, so they would be paid for their allegiances to the Persian empire, allowing for the mass enslavement of their countrymen and women and children, this is where free energy originally came from, slaves and of all people to write on the subject of free energy was Tesla, not just because he was a scientist but because he was of Persian origin through their European invasions, and he was very interested in the managing of the labour market, based on the low wages freemen,of America and Europe, and how this form of free energy could be held from revolting, by polluting their water supplies, causing early deaths, and capping a population stemming it's ability to then revolute against those that scaresly pain them coibafe for essentially is still free labour even today, we are paid enough to keep us passive and locked in an now we are being programmed through what Tesla invented was radio wave frequencies, sent from masses to TV phones,and all kinds of devices, that can in fact control you mind, by using frequencies that can create zombie populations for slave labour.
You are right in what you are saying but you are wrong in the way in which your American culture has narrow minded it men and woman and it's various ethnic cultures, into thinking that there was ever a move away from the oppression, that has been laid upon humanity since 656BC
It's funny how I've seen several vantage points, and what do I see? I see her run him over. After hitting his car. He called her a "f*ckin' b*tch!" After she hit him, not after shooting her. One vantage point I saw was from a friend up there. There was no misogyny, Erika Kirk is not preaching misogyny... She's tryin' to get more women in the home to her "Train up your children in the way they should go, and when they are older they will not turn from it." She lives by the Bible. Don't you dare put her in this.
I linked to the video in my article. If you watch that video and see her running him over and him saying “f*cking b*tch” before shooting her… your mind is playing tricks on you.
The video is very clear and shot from his point of view.
The misogyny must be called out and we need men to listen and amplify not shout us down and tell us we’re wrong.
You can say you're a Christian all you want, but your actions are purely fascist. Combine that with your pathetic attempts to threaten people with your religion, in fact, makes you a christo-fascist. There is no debate, except for inside your weak mind.
It's absolutely fucking comical how christo-fascists like yourself think that your fantasy worlds are any threat to anyone, yet you allow authoritarian people murder people in the streets. Jesus would turn your table ten fold. Sit the fuck down, lunatic.
Why do men see this differently? I know there are doctored versions of the video going around, and as during any time of propaganda, one has to make sure they are viewing a legitimate website.
I, as a male human, absolutely see a woman who faced the all too common and atrocious fatal end that abusive men have put upon women forever. We have a real problem with men in this country and the world. My father was a manipulative and severely abusive man. We cannot allow this behavior to continue.
Apparently you're following in your dad's abusive footsteps. Listen, I'm 47, I have Cerebral Palsy and I'm a partial paraplegic in a nursing home. I used to be able to walk, but a lotta crap has happened over the years. I live in constant pain 'cause of damage to my back and neck, related to my Cerebral Palsy.
I'm a Christian, not a fascist. I'm for free speech and a free society. How does that make me a fascist??? Look at Israel, and all of their discoveries... They prove the Bible is authentic!
Thank you! The misogynistic angle seems so obvious it shouldn't need to be pointed out, but the fact that it hasn't been points to the fact that it should be shouted from the rooftops.
That’s why I wrote this. I really didn’t want to write it and it’s taken an awful number of spoons but I feel like we should be leading with misogyny…
Of course most media is run by men so I don’t have high hopes!
I think the extrajudicial killing trumps (no pun intended, I swear) the misogyny, but the fact that the “fucking bitch” quote has been so often reported with no reflection on it speaks volumes as to what an acceptable response it is.
As someone who has also had to learn to ration my spoons, I am grateful for your taking the time and effort to craft this thoughtful and articulate piece.
Thank you Jane. It definitely took a lot of spoons and I appreciate you saying that.
I just saw a video of an ICE witness who was arrested and detained and apparently told “stop obstructing that’s how the lesbian b*tch died”.
Misogyny. Bigotry. These are the worst of us and they’re being given way too much power.
This difficult piece was beautifully written and incredibly insightful regarding misogyny. It captures 2026 America truthfully. What a tragic, pathetic society we have created despite all our achievements. How bereft I am over our commitment to money, power, and cruelty rather than humanity, tolerance, and kindness.

Thank you! This all needs to be said—loudly and often.
Thank you for being one of the voices of truth and America's real values. Stopping the actions of ICE and the other deeply immoral actions of the entire Trump administration won't be easy.

So strongly stated! That you for speaking out

She didn't hit him. There was absolutely no sense in him shooting her. You have a severe problem in your brain.
You're the one with the problem. And if you keep thumbing your nose at the Bible, and God, you'll end up in Hell, a very real place!
The Pope is very concerned about how immigrants are being treated. I think he knows a lot about the Bible.
You can say you're a Christian all you want, but your actions are purely fascist. Combine that with your pathetic attempts to threaten people with your religion, in fact, makes you a christo-fascist. There is no debate, except for inside your weak mind.
I have a college education, and I bet I'm probably 20 years older than you are. A lot more mature for what I've been dealt in life.
You have a mental illness that causes you to claim being a victim while supporting the abusers.
I bet you spend a lot of time trying to make yourself feel better.
And one more time, for clarity: FUCK YOUR GOD. You worship hate.
Who do you worship? I certainly don't worship Allah, or Satan, who are both evil... But I will not be able to quench your thirst when you're in Hell.
I worship Santa Claus and he said you're on the naughty list. Sounds ridiculous? Yeah.
Actually, will you be in hell? No? Great. That's where I want to go.
The real hell is the one you have created, MAGAt. In the real world, you are actual evil.
If you don't like it, you DUMBacrat, you can leave! But, no! Y'all on the far left wanna kill Trump.
I don't worship anyone. You can name all the mythical characters you want. It doesn't mean anything.
You know you sound like an idiot, right? Like, do you ever hear yourself?
It's absolutely fucking comical how christo-fascists like yourself think that your fantasy worlds are any threat to anyone, yet you allow authoritarian people murder people in the streets. Jesus would turn your table ten fold. Sit the fuck down, lunatic.
I don't give a shit about your myths.
You "see" what you are wanting to see. See with your damn eyes.
Why do men see this differently? I know there are doctored versions of the video going around, and as during any time of propaganda, one has to make sure they are viewing a legitimate website.
I, as a male human, absolutely see a woman who faced the all too common and atrocious fatal end that abusive men have put upon women forever.

Please, for your own sake, read more books than just the Bible.
And will you change your tune when he comes for the disabled, like his hero, Hitler?
Donald Trump is the abusive man.
And yet you still choose to attack victims of abuse...
Fuck your Bible.
I'm a Christian, not a fascist. I'm for free speech and a free society. How does that make me a fascist??? Look at Israel, and all of their discoveries... They prove the Bible is authentic!
The Bible is a book, written by men.
Siding with fascists makes you a fascist. This isn't rocket science.
