THIS is DOMESTIC TERRORISM! Not we, the patriotic protesters/defenders of democracy !! This kind of violence is encouraged by the current regime & the lack of stronger gun laws !!

When thugs in masks refuse to show their ID,;when the ICE maintains the reason is the fear their agents will be "doxxed"; when ordinary law enforcement and FBI don't masked themselves and will show ID; when the US government employs ICE as paramilitaries to not only pick up illegal immigrants they've identified, but anyone who might LOOK like one, or anyone who doesn't stop for them, or anyone who they say is using their car as a weapon, or detain protestors who haven't done anything but exercise their Constitutional right to protest . . .then we HAVE an authoritarian state. We're there right now.

I'm a free subscriber. Thanks for running the entire article. I lived four years in far northern Minnesota, in a rural, scantily populated area. Scary? You betcha! My heart goes out to this victim. Know there are millions of people behind you, wishing you well in your recovery process. Godspeed!

It was only a matter of time.

It’s crazy when you think about agents with masks and no ID/badge in the context of Florida’s “Stand your ground” law. Stand your ground enables Florida residents to use deadly force in self-defense without a duty to retreat or even give a warning shot. Both conditions are screwy and so incredibly dangerous and violent!

Amazon has tons of ICE impersonator gear for sale. Why is this allowed?

Unbelievable once upon a time, but completely believable now.

Being a realist, I'm aware my 88 years of age limits the time remaining for active protesting. For that reason I'll emphasis the importance of recognizing the very clear dangers facing America at this moment, in real time. And make no mistake, the dangers are obvious. Being rid of Trump and his toadies is imperative. But beyond that remains the necessity for America to NEVER ALLOW ANOTHER TRUMP to govern. Remember history is our best teacher and we must learn this valuable lesson above all else. Be those who stand for freedoms, never kneel to tyranny.

Wow! Perfect disguise for criminals (which I think ICE are anyway!) to do what they damn well please. What’s wrong with people these days? It’s scary 🇬🇧

Stuff like this is why we want ICE with IDs and play by the rules we set for them.

David's avatar

It may take fake ice agents kidnapping white men to drive the point home, all we want is to know who is enforcing the rules.

We want them gone we want this whole thing to be done. We do not want ice or border patrol any longer anywhere in this country

This was bound to happen. ICE is a rogue, pseudo-military squad for tRump.

I am surprised this doesn’t happen more often

We need to step up our protest strategy big time! Future events need to be scheduled right in front of all Republican officials’ offices. Take it to the ones who have failed our democratic safeguards for the past 10 fucking years! Directly pressure them to remove him NOW! Huge, targeted protests may have a better impact than showing up on a street corner or a park.

Might I suggest that Gen Z start their own “Cockroach Revolution” like they are doing in Modi’s regime in India then maybe Americas regime will stop pushing you around.

WTAF! We are tired of this unlawful, violent bullshit!

Is there any agency left that anyone would believe to confirm or deny who these kidnappers are? If the assault went worse than planned, would those guilty admit it? Liars can never be believed - ever. How many believe the denial? 🤨Hands? Me neither😤
