I’m tempted to create a sub-blog and document only ICE’s outrageous and inhumane (not to mention illegal as hell) actions. I don’t know how Kristi Noem or any of them live with themselves. What you’re about to see amounts to a kidnapping. It is absolutely an act of domestic terrorism, which is ironic when you consider that ICE is “protecting” us from just such a thing. Patterns are forming and the biggest pattern of all right now seems to be to grab people off the streets, for no reason, imprison them for a time and then let them go. How soon before ICE goes completely Soviet and the last part, the releasing of the victim, doesn’t happen? And people just vanish off American streets? ***Trigger***This is difficult to watch.

It’s the non resistance part that scares me. There was a noteworthy case in Loveland, Colorado a few years ago. Long story short, an elderly woman in her 70’s had Alzheimer’s. She was out wandering around and she went into a dime store and purchased $19 worth of merchandise — but left without paying for it.

So the local cops were called. No problem there. BUT when they got to the old gal, just wandering in the direction of home, or where she believed home was, they roughed her up. They dislocated her shoulder. They then sat her in the police station, handcuffed, with a dislocated shoulder, an injured knee, and all kinds of bruises and left her there for hours.

Finally her family was contacted and they sued the hell out of the Loveland police and won. The two cops were fired, thank God. Now, whatever they’re doing, they’re not beating up on old women. Or maybe they are but they’re not getting paid to do it and they’re not doing it under color of authority.

But I remember that scene vividly because I’m an old woman and believe me, I would not resist a cop or an ICE officer, either. But maybe that doesn’t matter. Maybe I would be mauled and left to rot for hours or even days, in some cell. This is a possibility in Trump’s America.

It’s enough to make you want to stay home and hide under the bed. Although that may not work, either, when ICE starts kicking in doors. And they have done that and wrongfully so. ICE kicked in the door of an Oklahoma family earlier this year. Long story short, ICE was looking for the people that used to live there, and they dragged the family members, all United States citizens, born here, out of their beds and out into the rain.

We are living in extraordinary times.

  1. The good news is that all this video evidence is going to be extremely useful when the good guys are back in charge, I.C.E. is disbanded along with D.H.S. and these moronic bullies are held to account, and tried for their crimes.

    Bad behavior won’t go unpunished.

  2. note that they don’t have guns drawn and pointing at the car. in other wirds, they don’t suspect these people of being criminals they are going to arrest.

    • Come for my relatives in the Appalachia mts of VA/NC and you better draw those guns. You’ll need them. My family lives by a code…and you pissants better not violate it or else bring body bags. They don’t argue with fascists…they shoot them and feed them to the pigs. So how about it assholes? Is it a job you’re willing to die over? Better stick to the unarmed and helpless.
