Happened in LA just days after a federal Judge struck down their use of warrantless arrests. And they continued at a Home Depot in Los Angeles a couple days after.

They did. They said it was illegal in a statement.
Do you have a plan to undo the damage you did by jumping on this bandwagon?
The damage is the point. Their brand was associated with this.
The damage. Is the point.
The employee rented a truck to a random white guy. They do this every day.
The company stated the act was illegal after learning about it. What more could they do, or have done? If the answer is nothing, then the damage is undeserved.
how about legally press the guy they rented the truck to if it was illegal? Unless I see arrests, penske did absolutely nothing but say "woopsie"
We can't hold police accountable for murder, what makes you think that a corporation can hold them accountable for this? On what legal grounds would Penske even build that case? It's not fraud. And Penske can't got after them for laws the police break while using the rental. So they ban that one guy that signed the rental agreement, so what? What exactly will that accomplish? The only effect would be to cost Penske money and make an enemy of a fascist police state that has made no secret of their eagerness to break the law and abandon due process.
What makes you think they know which of their many customers supplied the rented truck to ICE?
Not here to argue for or against, but the license plate is visible in the picture which gives a narrower starting point.
I bet some of them own iPhones. Does that make Apple complicit?
