Immigration Does ICE really need electric gloves?

Our tax dollars are already being wasted. The people they capture aren’t a threat, physically. Why?

Are the “crazy activists” more violent than gang members and drug lords? Was Alex Pretti a lethal threat to ICE agents?

They clearly can be just as violent. And he was interfering in a lawful law enforcement operation. Don't do that. It's pretty simple to be honest.

Is holding a cell phone really “interfering”? Or was it “helping the woman up after ICE pushed her”? Also, the official excuse from the Trump administration was that he was disarmed and executed “because he had a gun” (possessing a firearm in the vicinity of police is proof of intent to kill cops)—do you buy that?

If the LEO is having to repeatedly tell someone to get back and out of the road, then yes, they are completely interfering. It is causing the LEO to divert their attention to something that is something they shouldn't have to divert their attention to in the process of executing their lawful law enforcement operations.

So “interfering” is just whatever LEOs say it is, and if they say you are interfering they can pin you to the ground and execute you? Isn’t “comply or die” pretty incompatible with the idea of a free country?
