Renee Nicole Good was Murdered by the State

There is another video which has been going around, allegedly taken by the killer himself, showing Renee Good’s wife verbally challenging ICE officers at a distance, but she had no weapon. Good was ordered to move her car by one officer and get out of the car by another. As Jeffrey St Clair of CounterPunch said, “These contradictory instructions are a frequent tactic, since, however you respond, you violate one of the orders, and offer an excuse for escalation.”

As Good tried to comply with the one order to move, she was shot in the face and head several times by ICE officer Jonathan Ross. Before she was murdered, Good can be heard saying “that’s ok dude, I’m not mad at you.” Seconds later, Ross fired directly into the car from the drivers side window and through the windshield. After that, Ross could be heard saying “fucking bitch” as Good’s car sped uncontrollably into an electrical pole.

At no point was Good’s car facing any ICE officer. In fact, it was pointed away from them as she attempted to follow orders to move the car. She likely panicked when one of the officers lunged at her through the car window.

But it appears that these ICE thugs did not like being challenged. They especially did not like being challenged by two women. But the challenge was no threat to anyone’s life. There was no reason or justification for using deadly force. None.

Anyone telling you otherwise is lying. They are repeating the regime’s lies about “domestic terrorism” because it justifies an immoral narrative about power always being in the right. And they will use this justification every single time they kill in the future.

Just as we have seen in the genocide in Gaza, there will always be a rationalization for brutality. There will always be an officer, or a soldier, or a settler who “feared for their life” when they use deadly force against unarmed people who dare to speak out or to peacefully protest or obstruct an injustice.

Atrocity and Gaslighting in the Post Truth Era

Leave a reply

We live in a post truth era. A time of gargantuan gaslighting. Immediately following the murder of an unarmed woman in her car by an ICE agent in Minneapolis as she drove away, Kristi Noem began the process of sanitization. Despite clear evidence that this was an unprovoked murder, she reframed it as domestic terrorism.

Donald Trump chimed in not long after with his usual lies and swift scapegoating of the “radical left.”

And since then, a swarm of online trolls, who are mostly white men, have flooded their newsfeeds and the comment sections of anyone who will still keep them on their friend list with comments like “FAFO” or “this is what happens when you try to run over law enforcement.”

The last one is the most striking. Renee Nicole Good was killed in cold blood in front of cameras. We all saw it. So, how can anyone not connected to power still defend ICE?

It demonstrates two things. One, they did not watch the video. Two, they did, but they simply don’t care about facts. Either way, protecting the fragile edifice of American power and domination is more important than evidence, even when that evidence is incontrovertible. The only options available to them are to ignore it or redefine it to fit the only acceptable narrative.

For over two years, we have witnessed a literal genocide being carried out by Israel in Gaza. The evidence is overwhelming in this regard. Thousands of photos, videos, testimonies, eyewitness accounts, doctors, nurses, journalists, scholars all attest to this. Yet, as with the murder of Renee Nicole Good, we are being gaslit to deny our own critical thinking and accept the version of the powerful, no matter how absurd or ridiculous it may be.

When truth becomes an option rather than the primary foundation of a society, the result is brutality. It always ends in atrocity. Genocide is the very worst crime against humanity. The US was and continues to be the primary engine of that crime. It has used every power it possesses to crush the truth about it. And this is the result.

Those defending the treacherous and murderous actions of ICE today are no different than those who defended Israel or the United States as they carried out a genocide. Both require a monumental suspension of critical thinking skills and the complete bankruptcy of moral integrity. And, in this regard, America excels at both.
