ICE has regularly attacked protesters and bystanders who are simply recording, walking away and so on. Even people just driving through their neighborhood have been dragged out of their vehicles and apprehended. Citizen or otherwise doesn’t seem to matter. They aren’t professionals and operate with neither the training, nor the will to obey the law. Much of the time they seem to believe trying to bait folks into an encounter https://www.reddit.com/r/ICE_Raids/comments/1q7u4kz/ice_agent_pulls_weapon_on_crowd_and_appears_to/ https://www.reddit.com/r/ICE_Raids/comments/1q7u4kz/ice_agen... https://www.reddit.com/r/minnesota/comments/1q7y43s/cbp_points_gun_directly_at_protesters_head/ https://www.reddit.com/r/minnesota/comments/1q7y43s/cbp_poin... In my area all the non white folks don’t come to the bus stop anymore to pickup their kids. Their kids are instructed to race home after school. The schools now have lockdown protocols for ICE. Family businesses opened for decades closed because employees are afraid to come to work.

>>The schools now have lockdown protocols for ICE<< if the day ever came for ICE to breach a locked down school, and extract minors, that could be a tipping point.

  They've already breached churches and hospitals to extract people. And they've already arrested 5-year-old minors. Its only a matter of time before they move to schools.

  They raided a preschool in Chicago and kidnapped a preschooler in Minneapolis

> ICE has regularly attacked protesters and bystanders who are simply recording, walking away and so on. > Even people just driving through their neighborhood have been dragged out of their vehicles and apprehended. Citizen or otherwise doesn’t seem to matter. I have seen many claims of this sort, but every single time there's been video available of the incident, it's become clear to me that nothing of the sort is going on. The people "being dragged out of vehicles" have been refusing lawful orders and then being arrested for it. The people "simply recording" are physically interfering with ICE going where they need to go to do what they're there to do. "Walking away" doesn't remotely describe anything I've seen. As for the race issue, the ICE officers I've seen have been considerably more racially diverse than the protesters. But no, being a citizen does not, in fact, matter if you are breaking federal law in the presence of a federal agent, and that law includes obstruction of federal justice. All of this is extremely clear in law.

I'm getting rather tired of that. There's nothing objectionable or counter to guidelines in the above, and all of it reflects my true thoughts based on my actual experience of the discourse, the evidence available to me, the legal code I've researched, etc. It perhaps just doesn't agree with your point of view.

  You're being downvoted because you're being wilfully obtuse, not because you're a bootlicker.
- Snoots 9mo ago
  You're being flagged for good reason, you're not a victim here. You refuse to watch the videos, but you're still defending the regime. Why? I question the moral integrity of anyone who would defend this administration without all the available info. I'm glad you're being flagged, because I've been disappointed with how folks here have been surprisingly flaccid when it comes to condemning this regime. The day that I come here and find posts like yours in the majority will be the last day I visit.

  It is so strange seeing local cops deal with crowds vs ICE. ICE is just looks like a mob milling about. Some taking time to argue with protesters, others wandering alone aimlessly. Local cops dealing with protesters are organized, rarely trying to bait anyone into anything.

  I sure hope they're not pretending to be police considering they kill about ~1,200 people/year in the US (compared to about two in the UK).
  - dietr1ch 9mo ago
    These numbers are hard to compare. It seems that ICE's killing rate in kills per serving man hour is outrageously high, but I don't have numbers on this.

> They aren’t professionals and operate with neither the training, nor the will to obey the law. Many of them are experienced and trained. The man who shot Renee Good served in Iraq, worked for Border Patrol for two decades and was literally a firearms instructor[1]. This is just what cops, reactionaries and psychopaths will do when they know that they have carte blanche to do anything they want, including murder. No amount of "training" will fix this. It isn't an accident, it isn't incompetence, it is deliberate and wanton.

  Yes. Stepping in front of cars to give reason to shoot occupants was a repeated pattern in the Border Patrol, while against standard practice for most law enforcement. So assuming it's random lack of training when he does it again seem far too charitable.

    Citation for anyone interested[1]. He also has a history of doing exactly this before. It's the second time he was "struck" by a moving vehicle after purposely putting himself in his purported harms way. Who knows how many times he's practiced for this murder before. If the video somehow didn't do it, the "fucking bitch" not even seconds after pulling the trigger would put any one of us away for murder.
