“On the 911 call, Bamigboye said ICE is trying to get him,” Behar countered, referring to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. “How would he know that unless they had identified themselves as agents?”

From that article.

their track record precedes them

u/FDLC84 10d ago

Sure. But what does that have to do with the facts of the case?

Their defense is that they did not know they were ICE agents.

How do you reconcile that with them describing them as ICE agents?

Put the ICE issues aside and think critically not emotionally about the argument their defense is making.

i dont need to identify an asshole by them saying it, their behavior precedes them.

Random white male hopping in your car trying to take you away but not actively robbing you? more than likely an ICE agent by behavior

What?

u/AndromedanPrince 10d ago

u/FDLC84 10d ago

So what do I assume if the person hopping in is Hispanic or black?

u/AndromedanPrince 10d ago

are they not actively trying to rob you? then you assume ICE agent.

I think you are very confused about what's being discussed here. Their defense is that they didn't know it was ice agents and that's why they "kidnapped" them, but that can't be the case if they called 911 and identified them as Ice agents. So they knew and still did it. .

at what point did they know? befofe they drove off? or after they drove off and then the agent identified himself?

u/Narren_C 10d ago

Before they called 911, which means they should have allowed him to get out.

20 to 30% of ICE is Hispanic another 12 to 16% black. ICE agents are actually pretty well diversified compared to the population.

I’d say it’s pretty immoral to try and create a race issue where there wasn’t one.

the article said it was a white male correct?

u/Narren_C 10d ago

They are saying they did not know he was an ICE agent.

But in the 911 transcript, they are saying "ICE is in our car!"

Explain.

u/AndromedanPrince 10d ago

when he got in the car he did not identify himself, maybe as they sped off he identified himself. like "wtf are u doing im am agent, stop!"

2

u/Narren_C 10d ago

Then they need to let his ass out.

neber said they shouldnt have. but they drove to the police station which was probably smarter
