After being detained and released by ICE, Arnoldo’s family took him to Texas Children’s Hospital, where staff moved him to a trauma unit after identifying signs of the chokehold, according to ProPublica. Records show that doctors ordered dozens of CT scans and x-rays, including for his head, neck, and spine. His family says that the agents threatened to charge Arnoldo with assaulting an officer if his dad didn’t agree to be deported. The father is now in Mexico.
ACAB
They’re not even cops!
From Wikipedia
A police officer (also called policeman or policewoman, cop, officer or constable) is a warranted law employee of a police force. In most countries, police officer is a generic term not specifying a particular rank. In some, the use of the rank officer is legally reserved for military personnel
I think of a cop like porn, you know it when you see it
These mother fucking ICE assholes are cops
… after seriously beating him up. Bunch of cowardly thugs.
It’s called ‘civil forfeiture’, been happening for literal decades (at least), and it’s, unfortunately, probably legal.
Gotta love how being a cop in the US is so legal that we have to give them new, extra-legal ways to exist so they feel appreciated by the peasants.
Of course they did. And they have full immunity too. 🙄
They only have immunity because the laws aren’t enforced.
They don’t actually have immunity under the laws today. ICE are not law enforcement, they do not have the ability or jurisdiction to be law enforcement. Most of their actions are illegal under State and federal laws. However actual law enforcement refuses to enforce the laws in regards to ICE.
They don’t. I know what you mean, but I’d rather not just repeat the lie and let it sit there.
They can literally just shoot random people and nothing happens
Or sell their possessions like in this case
It’ll be years before any of this catches up to them, if it does. But it might.
Yeah but that’s because they’re breaking the law and nobody’s enforcing consequences. I get what you’re saying, they do have effective immunity because the system is compromised, but they do not have legal immunity and are healing the law. If we course correct (we can’t, but maybe a fuckin miracle will happen) they’ll all be able to prosecuted under existing laws by judges and prosecutors that fulfill their oaths. It’s an ultimately meaningless distinction unless we course correct, but it’s worth pointing out for the sake of factual accuracy.
Yup. This is not immunity, it is lawlessness.
They don’t, felony theft is a state crime and you have to provide id to pawn or sell a phone.
This is actually insane to read. You would think it’s satire, but not when ICE is filled 100% with nazi’s, con men, and criminals that were pardoned.
I miss when these were stories from The Onion.
So can we buy some of them Israeli pagers and let them steal those.
Time to leave the good phone at home and use a super cheap burner on an esim when out in public
I suggest a note 7. On the off chance it explodes on them.
Holy crap that’s genius, too bad they made me send it back to them…
Not as crazy as that guy who followed a girl into a port a potty and closed the door.
These are armed fascist thugs and remember cops stand with ice, they are your oppressors. Anyone who takes up arms for the state is an oppressor.
They steal money and other things from everyone they kidnap.
That’s actually been a long-standing policy for Immigration control. Going back to the DoJ era.
I mean most of these ice guys are probably creeps and illiterate morons so no surprise
the overwhelming majority of americans don’t read a single book after graduating highschool
The United States is a fascist country. The majority seem Ok with that. This is how a fascist government behaves. Accept it, you chose it.
