Obligatory "Fuck ICE" naturally, but this one is particularly jarring. For 3 reasons-
A) "from a pick-up truck travelling in the opposite direction". What. Tha. Fuck. They are drive-by pepper spraying brown people without pulling them over?
B) Goes without saying at this point, but everyone in that vehicle was a US citizen.
C) DHS straight up lied, denied that anything happened in that parking lot, at all. When it comes to ICE misconduct, the Federal government's official stance is "pics or it didn't happen". Which is a good reminder for everyone to film these animals constantly.
I want to ask, "When will this insanity end?" But of course I know the answer. When the American people make it end and not before.
It should go without saying but their citizenship should have no bearing on their treatment. If they were undocumented, this behaviour would still not be justified.
People without legal status in ones nation state are not less worthy of human rights.
Of course I agree with you completely, it just further illustrates ICEs intellectual dishonesty.
While driving ! Could have crashed into oncoming traffic or people walking and all !
I saw the video, so yeah, there are pics
Which agent did it?
Oh you didn't see their face? Sorry! Can't find him.
