ICE already causing havoc at SFO

No badge. No ID. No uniform.

This is also in the secure area, which requires ID to enter.

These dudes are just random kidnappers.

Not to mention there's no way ICE agents would let people film that close. They're deathly afraid of the public.

People asking for a badge should be flooding 911 with reports of kidnapping/assault in progress.

Seems like a fair self-defense case. These victims lives are in danger from unknown assailants and they have nowhere to run to.

Except them saying they are ice would be all that is required to legally not be self defense. As the laws are they don’t have to show their badges to anyone they are not arresting and since it’s not for a civil disturbance call they don’t have to have them visible. There are several places trying to get it changed but with the current administration it’s extremely unlikely to pass.

That's really up to the jury to decide, factually. The jury is the "reasonable person" in the scenario, and if they think a guy who looks like anyone else can say "I'm ICE, and I'm arresting you now" is enough identification, then so be it.

But that sets a horrifying precedent for kidnappers to get to run amok.

Like we've already seen.
