No, I did not use that specific language. What I did say was this:

> [@The ICE shootings in Minneapolis (1/7/2026)](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-ice-shootings-in-minneapolis-1-7-2026/1026461/1337):
>
> This thread is for the purpose of discussing _specifically_ the shootings of individuals by ICE agents in Minneapolis. Tangential discussions belong elsewhere.
