‘We will be notifying your family where to collect your remains, because we will kill you, graveyard dead,’ the sheriff eerily warned Thursday

A Florida sheriff issued a stark message to protesters planning to demonstrate this weekend against increasing ICE arrests nationwide.

Brevard County Sheriff Wayne Ivey warned in a press conference Thursday that if any protesters “throw a brick, a firebomb, or point a gun,” they will be killed.

Protests against the Trump administration's ongoing immigration crackdown have been popping up across the nation after they first erupted in Los Angeles on Friday.

They are expected to continue through the weekend, in alignment with the president’s birthday parade.

With how cops are, it's tantamount to the same thing -- it's tacit approval for them to straight up murder protesters regardless of provocation. They can always make that shit up later and get off without consequences.

This guy is basically waxing poetic about his hopes and dreams to violently brutalize the communities hes supposed to protect, and I guaranfuckingtee you, given the polices penchant for escalation peaceful interaction into violent hysteria, that it wont take firebombs, bricks, or anything else for them to start killing people.

All it'll take is one hurt feefee. Which is pretty much all it ever takes for cops to start brutalizing and killing the innocent.
