So little has changed with ICE over the last year--still CRUEL with no consequences for their actions.
🚨A Border Patrol agent, in the Florida Keys, has been caught on video
multiple times
racially profiling, assaulting, and illegally arresting U.S. citizens.
The agent pulls over a car, removes the driver, who is a U.S. citizen, and handcuffs him
Then, in the video, he is seen trying to forcefully handcuff the passenger, too
again, a U.S. citizen
with no clear justification.
Another agent is heard yelling that hes going to tase the passenger if he doesnt comply, while theyre illegally handcuffing the U.S. citizen.
The person in the back seat starts, saying, this is f*cking crazy, trying to document whats happening, and the moment the agent notices he is recording, he tells him to stop and tries to grab his phone.
Recording law enforcement, in public, is protected under the First Amendment
and trying to seize someones phone to stop that recording is unconstitutional.
Even the person being handcuffed says, Hey, you cant take his phone
because thats how obviously illegal that action is.
And after all of that
the illegal stop, the force, the arrests
they were all released, because none of it shouldve happened to begin with.
And if this were an isolated incident, that would already be a problem
but its not.
Two weeks later, the same agent is recorded AGAIN, pulling over the same U.S. citizens
So, this is where it stops being about one bad stop, and starts looking like something bigger
Because when the same agents are caught, on camera, violating the Constitution
over and over
and nothing happens to them
You no longer have those Constitutional rights.

(2,739 posts)This ICE assh*le is just being himself, a racist to the core with no fear of reprisals.
The SCJs on the otherhand are supposed to protect all of the citizenry by upholding our Constitutional rights and following the law. Not making laws up, to please the Felon, or their own personal preference.
They need to feel the weight of their criminality now, not in the so called, next life.
