ICE whines that protesters in Minnesota wont even let agents take bathroom breaks in peace
Department of Homeland Security appeals for sympathy by claiming its officers are harassed by agitators wherever they go, even when trying to use gas station restrooms
Today, Border Patrol agents who were in the Minneapolis-St Paul area as part of a targeted enforcement operation were repeatedly harassed and blocked by hostile crowds while simply trying to take bathroom breaks, the DHS wrote on X Wednesday.
At each gas station where the agents stopped to use the restroom, groups of agitators appeared, yelled at them, stalked them, and even tried to prevent law enforcement vehicles from leaving, creating unsafe conditions.
At one stop, individuals in the crowd threw food at the agents, the statement continued. At their final gas station stop, someone spit on an agent. When an agent moved to detain the person who spit on him, the crowd tackled and attacked the agents while surrounding them.

Imagine this at the scale of the entire country. I think Minnesotans are demonstrating restraint.

Have you ever tried using a gas station restroom without buying any gas or at least some snacks?

Yet, they toss innocent people into mass detention cells with one open toilet.
