Ring footage shows an agent pulling his gun on her, after which he shoves her down multiple times, pushes her back into house & slams the door.

All because she was asking for proof of a warrant. They refused to even give their names & badge numbers.

    He refused to identify himself and then assaulted the resident. Why is the news calling him an “agent?” These guys don’t have badges, don’t wear uniforms, drive in unmarked vans and wear masks. They don’t know WTF they are.

    Looks to me like a group of kidnappers.

      Good point. Could literally be vigilante militias. It at least merits an “alleged” or “purported” before “agent.”

    This country is falling apart all so a bunch of racist conservatives can feel like they got revenge for Hollywood teasing them. The pain most conservatives will feel from the Republican policies will be brutal, but at least they get to inflict pain on their perceived enemies. What a silly fucking country.

      I also think it’s pent up rage because a black man was president. These racists will literally never let that go or accept it.

        I’ve heard it so many times from racists I am related to and work with. ‘‘We had a black president NOTHING IS RACIST ANYMORE! I can say whatever I want now’’ they REALLY can’t figure out what ‘racism’ means on any dictionary level.

        Its wild considering that they are aliens, not native americans. They are literally guests of this country

      There is no greater flake than a butt-hurt, racist conservative. That’s why political correctness exists: to protect their feelings.

      We have reached a point in reality where I believe Tolkien’s “Evil will defeat itself” when even Trump supporters are swept up by the consequences of their voting choices.

    How much longer before one of these becomes an outright gun battle? Or some dude screaming “show me a warrant!!” while holding an AR15. I want someone to make these ICE fuckers scared to do this.

    So felony kidnapping and aggravated menace. If they refuse to identify I dont see why we have to assume they are officers.

    1. Treat every firearm as if it is loaded
    2. Never point a firearm at anything you are not willing to destroy
    3. Keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot
    4. Be sure of your target and what is behind it

    I would say they are not following #2 but I am also pretty sure they are willing to destroy what they’re pointing their weapons at in this situation. cunts

    I am failing to find either a list of ICE abduction / detention victims or a list of ICE officer-involved homicide.

    In 2015 police officer-involved homicide (that’s a euphemism for when a law-enforcement officer kills someone) averaged four victims a day, and those are the ones uncovered by activist groups who tracked incidents through news and obituaries.

    So I cannot imagine a quota of 3000 abductions a day is going to proceed cleanly. Technically, they’re succeeding at about 1100 abductions a day on average. We’ve seen their violence discipline and deescalation skills are wanting.

    The only news I can find about ICE killing someone is from the Biden era, and only a few are reported.

    So if anyone knows how often ICE pulls the trigger and kills (or seriously hospitalizes) members of the public, and can find me sources, please let me know. We should be tracking them, and we should be saying their names.

    Masked men

    Refuse to give names

    Refuse to give badge numbers

    Refuse to identify themselves

    Have no arrest warrant

    Threatening bystander with lethal force

    Show no shred of professionalism

    Taking your loved one with no explanation other than ‘shut the fuck up’

    How is this not a kidnapping and why don’t people defend themselves.

    If masked men who refuse to identify as law enforcement with names, badges, or at least faces, are pushing my wife into an unmarked car … Ya someone is getting shot. Even if it’s me, no one is taking my wife like that.
