You might be able to argue that the shooting originally was not state sponsored terrorism. (I would say yes, but there is an argument there)
But once the President and VP and HS Sec. tell you to not believe what we all can see on video, once the investigation in quashed, once the response becomes higher ICE presence instead of de-escalation, then it becomes state sponsored terrorism. Even steelmanning it, I cannot see a reasonable argument against that.
In her first rationalization speech after the Goode Murder, Noem went into detail about how blocking vehicles have been effective in thwarting ICE raids, and she wanted it to stop. That was when the murder happened.
They were ORDERED to escalate a confrontation, and send a message, and it caused a murder. Maybe they were even ordered to shoot.
We need to know the exact origin of the order, and the exact chain of command that order traveled, and where it originated. Noem, PeeWee Himmler, Trump?
