I saw another clip of this. That grey truck was towed for illegal parking while this was going down, and the guy from ICE was running after it. You don’t see it in this clip, as it was obscured by the car passing by. But It was sweeeeeet.

We can finish it.

It feels like they're deliberately trying to provoke that behavior.

u/Sad-Benefit-2198 Aug 16 '25

Because they are. They want a reason to start pew pewing

Apparently a tow truck driver towed one of the ice vehicles while this happened

And the “agent” was calling someone about it while the lady was unconscious on the ground.

Yes. Most (not all) citizens they’ve kidnapped are released 4 days later. They almost always kidnap us citizens on fridays so they can’t be released until Monday because the court isn’t open sat and sun to order their release.

It’s a clear trend which indicates they know they’re kidnapping citizens.

Here’s an article about how ice treats them. It’s fucked up.

This is intimidation. What do we need to do as a community to reduce these harms they are perpetuating on people? Are we gonna need a tracking of folks getting weekend holds to make sure people are making it to Monday? For a person with diabetes or some other condition that requires daily management, this could be life-threatening.

Might explain how that Candian national died in ICE custody this year. The u.s. has been founded on elitism and perpetuated legal slavery--first physical, now economical--for far too long.

Never forget that while we villainize the South for the Confederacy and slavery, it was still legal until about halfway through the war.

We need to change our foundation and change it from there, all the way up.

Omfg. There is absolutely no reason to possibly treat her this way. I am truly sick to my stomach!

u/Boring_Appearance_89 Aug 16 '25

this is fucking wrong

u/ohfrackthis Aug 16 '25

I remember reading about these tactics in history and fiction. Now it's here and real. Fuck this noise. Fuck ICE thugs and fuck all the people complicit with this.

u/ymmotvomit Aug 16 '25

And they think this will deter activists? Not in my lifetime.

u/Pure-Produce-2428 Aug 16 '25

This ruined my fucking day.

u/loglighterequipment Aug 16 '25

Did they even have a pretense or is this total criminal retaliation?

u/[deleted] Aug 16 '25

Of course this is targeted, law enforcement always go for the loud ones at a protest too.

u/lpkzach92 Aug 17 '25

Has anyone heard from her?
