    That’s some medieval shit if they just stood around while she died.

    I’m not sure what laws can be thrown at this, though I expect whatever they are, they won’t be nearly enough to truly have a fraction of the appropriate justice served to all involved in her death.

    We’re going to need more community medics in the future who know how to treat life threatening bleeding. Our community put together a short guide on steps you can take to equip yourself with that life saving knowledge so you can help your own community.

    Learn First Aid! ⛑️

    It is equally, if not more important, to be able to keep yourself and others alive if they get hurt. This is a tremendously useful skill for anyone to learn, you can never have too many medics.

    Tacticool Girlfriend provides a great introduction building a personal first aid kit, called an IFAK, which can deal with things like bullet wounds and other serious bleeding wounds. I also want to emphasize her recommendation of only buying medical gear from reputable sources (not Amazon!), such as North American Rescue to avoid fakes that could cost you your life.

    But you’ll need to learn how to use that equipment, too. The best resource for that is to take a local Stop The Bleed class, which are pretty widely available in most places. They may cost a small fee, but can also sometimes be free. Alternatively, if you cannot access a local class, this video by PrepMedic will give you a solid understanding of how to use Tourniquets and Gauze for wound packing.

    Injuries are less harmful if they are tended to early. Learning first aid can help conserve resources when healthcare becomes unaffordable. Having several medics in case of harm by police is an extremely powerful morale booster during a protest that may become a police riot. When you become comfortable with the basics of first aid, riot medicine is the next suggested step.

    Establish or join local Mutual Aid networks ✊

    If you haven’t already, get to know your neighbors. Mutual aid is a willingness to support and grow your community. This can include informal networks through friends, tenant/renter organizations, solidarity groups, and industrial unions.

    These are groups using direct action to solve each other’s problems. Building strong communities makes it difficult for fascism to take root. The actions of the government are going to hit every community hard, and the ones who build trust in each other and work together are most likely to survive. We’ve been building a list of resources in !inperson@slrpnk.net to help you on your way. Also check out this handy guide to find existing groups in your area.

    This isn’t only for your own community protection. Your ability to organize today will change the political landscape tomorrow. When revolution occurs, the social organizations that show the greatest resilience through the regime are the ones typically calling the shots when the dust settles. When it comes to elections, get out the vote drives are useless if most of the voters are fascists. At some point, you have to do grassroots political education if you don’t want fascist candidates winning elections. Mutual aid networks are excellent forums not only for teaching each other good political ideas, but demonstrating them in practice.

        Yes. But not every person who is shot or hurt in the future will be surrounded by ICE. Someone may be hurt while ICE is retreating, or towards the back of a crowd where they can be dragged away to be treated by those around them. This happened very often in the Hong Kong resistance and the rebellion in Chile in 2019, where activists began to set up impromptu medic stations to treat the wounded and the gassed.

        We have to be ready to support more and more resistance if we’re to avoid them solidifying into a complete fascist takeover.

          A bit of a heads-up: do not watch this video if you want to retain any hint of a fantasy that such a reckoning even did happen in the first place. Do watch if you want a fantastically well written essay about one of the most mythologized and relevant events in history.

            We are once again being presented the lesson that we didn’t learn every previous time a tyranny has been overthrown: That the overthrow must be total, that the power and influence the tyrants wielded must be entirely destroyed, that those responsible can’t be allowed to survive their crimes, and that the ideas that enabled their rule must become warnings taught to all from birth.

            Until we learn the lesson, we’re never going to grow out of this insane cycle.

    New records from emergency responders obtained by The New York Times show that Good was not breathing but had an irregular pulse when local medics arrived at the scene, and had no pulse by the time they removed her from her car. This comes after an initial video captured by bystanders showed ICE agents screaming at a medic who offered help as Good lay dying in her car.

    “Can I go check a pulse?” a man said after Good was shot, his hands in the air.

    “No! Back up!” an ICE agent told him.

    “I’m a physician!”

    “I don’t care!” the agent replied, before another came up and said they had their own EMS on the way. They arrived and performed CPR on Good—who had two gunshots in her chest and one on her arm—before taking her to the hospital, where she later died.

They systematically hunted down the leaders of the civil rights movements, they planted crack in the inner cities….all of our elected representatives send hundreds of billions of dollars to Israel to literally commit a genocide. The citizens of Israel have universal healthcare, free college and monthly payments per child from our tax dollars….our system is not fixable.

              I already said I agree with the assertions, I just don’t agree with the bleak, hopeless, roll-over-and-expose-belly-for-master resignation. We’ve struggled through worst in the past, and generally if you look at all metrics, our quality of life and freedom has only increased over the last several centuries and most unrest and destabilization are just the pendulum swinging, but that pendulum doesn’t wind down, history shows it gradually moves forward.

              We still owe it to the people who will come after us to do all we can, we still can see change in our lifetimes towards better outcomes we can still help push the needle, we can see grand outcomes when we actually try, we can still involve ourselves to the extent of our ability and comfort, and/or we can have individually great experiences and set aside what media shoves in your face all day, learn to diet and just focus on the problems for a certain amount of time every day.

              Go socialize, meet people, create love and safety around yourself with others and see sights in the world while you can.

              Yes, shit is going to get bad, maybe worse than anything we’ve seen so far. But the mountain of skulls we live on to have gotten to this next struggle shouldn’t be wasted.

            IMO the point of the George floydd protests was justice system reform, not a conviction.

          My point is that people were spreading the narrative/rumor that she was shot in the head for some reason. It is possible to be shot in the head and survive, it’s not as common as surviving gunshot wounds to extremities or even the chest cavity, especially if first aid and stop the bleed measures are started ASAP.

          So for some reason, from the very beginning, there was a miscommunication being spread (whether intentional or not) that her survival was probably less likely than it actually was.

          Even if that doctor hadn’t been there and hasn’t been prevented from helping, it also seems worth asking why all of the ICE agents who were present at the time had been issued fire arms, but none of the dickheads just standing around letting this lady bleed out, had any first aid training?

          Seriously none of them? Nobody even had some kind of common sense inkling hat they should probably try to stop the bleeding? Not even the “war veteran” who shot her? Just more weird shit to add to the long list of how/why did shit go down the way it did that day. So many weird things seem like he set out to intentionally murder somebody that day, and not just because her wife had embarrassed him beforehand.

          1. Why did the ICE agent who allegedly had PTSD from being dragged by a car intentionally position himself in front of her car?

          2. Why was his safety already off when he grabbed his gun

          3. Why did he keep his phone in one hand filming while he shooting at a car that was moving towards him?

          4. Did none of the “trained federal agents” really not have any basic first aid training, despite some of them previously seeing combat?

          5. Why did they refuse to let the doctor help her?

          6. Who started the rumor she had been shot in the head?

    I mean I feel like it’s still an inarguable point as to WHY she was shot, but let’s ignore even that part but why oh why did they deny her care after that? Can conservative sociopaths explain that part away, because they’ll always argue about how she deserved it but did she deserve medical care?

    Because at least actual cops still call an ambulance for you or let a Dr reach you

      There are times cops have shot someone 30 or more times, who is clearly absolutely dead and they will still apply bandages and give CPR sometimes to give at least the impression of protecting life. To me the denial of medical care in this situation is even more proof of guilt than the shooting because they can argue they feared for their life in the moment, but they had ample time to provide aid and deliberately blocked it.

      The murderer even went to check the body immediately after but then left, I would be unsurprised if he saw she was still potentially alive and they decided to block aid intentionally to make sure she was dead. I assumed she was shot in the face or head 3 or 4 times which would be unlikely to survive, but apparently she was wounded twice in the chest on the right side, once in the forearm and once in the head. I don’t know the specific damage from the shot to the head, it’s most likely she would have at least been in a vegetative state or have severe brain damage if she had lived, but to deny the chance of any aid for over ten minutes would seal the deal of a conviction for murder if I were a jury member in this case.

      It’s not even a stretch of the imagination to come to the idea that they’d say, “she disobeyed, therefore she deserved to die”.

      They eagerly dehumanize anybody who diverges from their strict ideals. Remember how Kristi Noem admitted to shooting her dog dead because it behaved like the big untrained puppy that it was? She told that story because they believe that is a reasonable response to an untrained, young and full of energy dog being disobedient.

      In their mind, Renee Good was no better and deserved no better than that dog.

        A doctor would be able to provide a higher level of care than a medic, because of all the experience in medical school.

        Medics don’t need degrees in medicine, just a paramedic program which is only 20 months. Ie the same length as the first post secondary requirement to medical school.

          Nope. If you are down in the field 99% of the time you want a good medic.
          If you need your blood drawn, you want a good phlebotomist. People are good at what they practice. Doctors are great in their environment, but it’s not like they are better at doing the jobs of other medical professionals.

It’s completely asinine to not let the doctor that is standing right there access to someone actively bleeding. Even the most casual assessment would save the paramedic on their way a minute and would have the attempts to stop the bleeding happen minutes earlier. That’s not a trivial amount of time. This level of negligence is homicide

          It can do, but that’s no basis on which to say “they weren’t a medic”. You can correctly call a physician a medic.

          Odd thing to nitpick, but since we ARE nitpicking; medics might be referred to as corpsman in the US military. Other countries with militaries have them too. We just call them medics.

          There’s a whole world outside of the USA.

            They’re only corpsmen in the Navy. In the other branches they’re medics, except the Marines which don’t have any (they borrow corpsmen from the Navy).

    And if we are patient, we’ll get to see how long it takes for anyone to do absolutely nothing about it.
