A federal agent who shot a Chicago woman multiple times after he said she struck his vehicle with her own bragged about his shooting skills in text messages with other agents, according to records presented Wednesday at a hearing in the case against the woman.
Records presented at the hearing showed that in a group Signal chat with other agents, which Exum described as a support group, he wrote in part: "I fired 5 rounds and she had 7 holes. Put that in your book boys.”
In a message to another recipient, Exum sent a news article about the event followed by the message: “Read it. 5 shots, 7 holes.”
We need to work in many different directions. Soap box and ballot box are working hard right now.
Destruction of property is a gray area. Obviously it can go too far, like setting a house on fire or destroying the east wing of the white house. But I was fine with them getting rid of the stupid Confederate statues. There are some options there.
Assassinations can be a bit murky, too. I’m fine with Luigi being a folk hero for people. Assassinations are extremely risky and of questionable effectiveness…but that one felt like borderline self defense. That sort of thing can escalate quickly but 47 is escalating either way.
