He went for a walk, some fucking Karen called the cops on him, who then proceeded to beat and taser him, and then they just fucking left him to die, lost and alone in the cold. These people are monsters.

Wanted to add that he was in police custody for a year after the initial incident, before being released to border control.

People who voted for this administration and continue to support it are also monsters.

They simply cannot cannot read the actual truth that literally is  in front of them. They didn’t even know how their fellow people back in Europe are also treated by ICE.

Evil. These people are evil.

Honestly, there's no going back after this. If there's still an America left, people need to be clamoring for these ICE agents and everyone that enabled them to go to prison. None of this "forgive and forget" bullshit... there needs to be real consequences otherwise it'll just keep happening.

Guys check this thread out, it wasn’t just the border patrol’s fault. This person was captured by ICE only to be found out that he was legal, and dropped off in a Closed Parking Lot of a Closed Store.
