WATCH: Furious Residents Surround ICE Agents Trying to Arrest Mom Clinging to Baby
WATCH: Furious Residents Surround ICE Agents Trying to Arrest Mom Clinging to Baby
without showing a warrant
I'm so tired of the legalist caveat, implying a Trump judge rubber stamping warrants for these gestapo shits would have made kidnapping and torturing a woman and her infant child acceptable.
But it does highlight that any random brute could put on a mask and do this with no authorization whatsoever. It's a fundamental human-rights and rule-of-law breakdown to fail to present a warrant. I agree that a warrant doesn't ethically make the arrests anything short of monstrous, though. That kind of legalist can suck eggs.
But it does highlight that any random brute could put on a mask and do this with no authorization whatsoever
I believe this a part of the plan.
We also need to stop using the word "arrest" when it comes to ICE. As you said, these are kidnappings.
The woman’s teen daughter was left holding the woman’s baby and stood in front of the car in an apparent attempt to stop it. After handing the child to another person, she allegedly kicked the car—and was also reportedly arrested on four charges, including child endangerment. Police have not disclosed what happened to the baby afterward.
fuck you
Yeah, police have a ton of latitude when they decide who to press which charges on and who they just let go with warnings or whatever, choosing to throw child endangerment at this girl is just straight up trolling
Like getting blood on a uniform and getting 'assaulting an officer' added
And the mayor had the audacity to say they don't agree with what ICE did.
That's great, but maybe get your police force to stop enabling their actions.
Even better, have your police force enforce the damn law. Arrest these men when they try to kidnap people without a warrant.
Yeah i think she was the one endangering the child not the fucking trump SS agents
It's a classic cop routine:
1: always be on lookout for slightest challenge to authority
2: arrest whoever possible
Obviously we’ve seen videos where the opposite is true too, not an absolutist, but ya def the MO for many
Pure evil.
“We don’t have to show you anything,” one agent reportedly shot back when asked for ID or a warrant.
Actually, yea. You do. Or its just assault and kidnapping. Official paperwork is not privileged or secret. That idiot should be fired along with his chain of command.
Helpful neighbor: "No, I'm with ICE and I'm arresting you motherfuckers."
*We all get to pretend to be ICE or whatever the fuck if there's no requirement to prove who you are
I'm surprised armed plainclothes and or tactically dressed leftist groups, who's goal is to specifically protect accused immigrants, haven't popped up.
Actually, yea. You do
For now.
No. They do no matter what. Once they tread on the Fourth the grumblings about resistance, rebellion, or revolt become a legal defense of our Constitutional rights. These people immediately get "promoted" and become a demest8c threat to the Constitution. It would then become open hunting season on ICE, with defending the Constitution becoming the legal defense. The only reason it hasn't happened yet is because ICE is targeting weak willed areas. They are moving fast and they also happen to be getting a large percentage of illegals with only occasional "mistakes".
Am I allowed to shoot in self defense if this happens in a stand your ground state?
Yes. Will the court decide in your favor? Who knows, but I'd wager probably not. It's better to try it and find out then let this happen though, or probably a better idea would be to get out ASAP and try to become a ghost if possible. Eventually this won't be tolerated, but people need to see others stand up before they will usually.
Legally, absolutely, but they'll kill you for it anyways
Actually no. https://newrepublic.com/post/194442/trump-doj-memo-ice-arrest-search-warrant
Civil liberties have already been suspended
Just because Marmalade Mussolini or his DOJ wrote a memo doesn't make it legal. The use of the Alien Enemies Act is already highly contested in federal court. (It remains to be seen if/when courts will enforce their rulings, but just today a Tufts University student was released from ICE custody as a result of a judge's ruling.)
Fired? This guy will be promoted. Shake your head. Fight back.
I'm curious. Do they have toshow it to bystanders? To the person they are arresting sure. And I would think to family of that person... but maybe not. I doubt they have to show it to randos on the street. But, I think it is safe to assume they didn't have it. Even if they did, thier history means they have blown any credibility on that front. As for ID. I do wonder about that. Anyone know the actual laws?
Big, strong, well trained men in tactical gear pushing, threatening and arresting women and children ..... and they wouldn't go into any actual threatening situations to deal with actual violent crimes.
Bunch of cowards going after the weakest in society ..... classic yellow bellied fascism.
well trained
They are well trained in thuggery and how to evade legal consequences. 80% of cops wouldn't know discipline or acting through adversity if it knocked their teeth out, and the 20% that do learned it in the military.
They def meant they are well trained in violence
“We don’t have to show you anything,” one agent reportedly shot back when asked for ID or a warrant.
“The crowd was unruly,” police said in a statement, claiming several individuals “put their hands on federal agents and Worcester officers.”
There's no reason to believe that they're federal agents if they refuse to show ID. And there's no law against putting your hands on gang members kidnapping one of your neighbors while impersonating federal agents. These dipshits are out of control and fucking stupid.
I’m just pleading for them to do this to the wrong set of people who take 2A seriously.
“You die first, get it? Your friends might get me in a rush, but not before I make your head into a canoe, you understand me?”
There's no reason to believe that they're federal agents if they refuse to show ID.
This is what I don't understand. What's then to prevent literally anyone else claiming to be from some other agency to intervene and say they can't take the person away? And then claim they don't need to show ID?
They won't listen to reason. Only a good beatdown will convince them.
If you are ICE, fuck you. You should be ashamed. Your parents should be ashamed
If you are someone who stands by while these cosplayers are kidnapping and torturing people, then you deserve your place in hell
And to the police that showed up to arrest their neighbors and enable ICE I hope hell is real because you deserve worse
thats why they are wearing masks, so they dont get doxxed.
So when you all gonna use all those guns you buy to defend yourself
The people opposed to ICE aren't the ones that buy the guns.
That’s a shame
So kidnapping and the police are in on it?
In some cities they are working with ICE, yes.
You can search for which cities formally have an agreement with ICE here:
https://themarkup.org/tools/2025/04/16/law-enforcement-ice-cooperation-tracker
look at those wussies hiding thier faces, dont want to get doxxed.
Can't wait till people start shooting ICE and the police on sight because they were pushed too far.
I'm genuinely surprised it hasn't happened yet. They're probably staying out of the most sketchy neighborhoods.
They're also usually relying on secrecy and speed. The way they quietly stopped and surrounded that innocent grad student, masked up, and kidnapped her so smoothly was terrifying.
The best way is if everyone arms themselves. Then if the incident happens, several people shoot and immediately run. Plan your escape before shooting.
I mean, they are supporting nazis, so they are nazis themselves. And the only good nazi is a dead nazi so...
Can’t wait till martial law? Fascist in Chief salivates like he did over Ivanka in that TV interview
How does America have so many cowards willing to do this job?
I've known plenty of them. They sign up specifically because they want to do this job. Rember the dumb bullies from school? Imagine what happens when they grow up.
Are you kidding me? Think of every maga you've seen with aggressive, hateful, pro-Trump anti-biden anti-immigration signs and such in their yards and on the back of their cars.
Every one of them with any kind of prior training and probably thousands upon thousands more without would punch their mother in the face for the chance to be given a badge and paycheck to get rid of brown people.
They are probably turning down 10x more people than they could even consider hiring.
The US is full of bigots and white supremacists, and it's more visible now than at any time in my nearly six decades of life.
They are too stupid and horrible to hold a real job so as long as they get paid they dont care..
And also so many cowards unwilling to do the OTHER job.
They're a bunch of psychopaths.
Edit:spelling
These ice agents deserve to be targeted. Yes, I am advocating violence against agents like this.
I fully agree. With the lack of respect for the law I don't understand why there aren't uprisings and riots in the streets by now!
Americans are being scarily apathetic to full takeover of fascism happening there. The constitution is already nullified if judges, mayor's and those decrying fascism and authoritarianism are being locked away.. the night is dark. They should be going by now but alas.
They’re not federal agents. At best they’ve been deputized. Even that’s probably overstating their legal status.
thats why they are wearing mask, so its harder to retaliate against them, people should consider pulling thier masks off.
Maybe installing a government run by neo-Nazis was a bad idea?
Why aren't Americans shooting at ICE agents. It's that what the 2nd amendment was for?
Looks like nazi germany
MAGA is the movement, GOP is the party and ICE is the goon squad. Deportation apparatus is operational. Media cooptation, military buildup and foreign bullying is incomplete, but underway. All in all, their evil campaign still lacks scale and foresight, but they're getting there. Opposition so far is not much more than the eye movement of the deer in the headlights.
With enough time, people around the world won't be comparing things to Nazi Germany anymore, but instead to Trumpian America
There needs to be a citizens APB tool so when this happens people can swarm the scene and block them from leaving or backup entering.
Hmmm, good idea. Maybe I'll call it "Melt"
Nah, that's what we call the tool of resistance AFTER the peaceful action gets escalated to violence. Maybe H.A.M. (is that an acronym?) radio operators could help setup a system to facilitate the use the communication and education for setup. Keep in mind that the FCC has control of radio bands and frequency in the US.
Not sure what a you would call the equipment of the communication system.
AntifAlert
So they build an infrastructure, hire a lot of people, get the legal cover they need, deport millions...
Then they have this whole process ready to go with no immigrants left to deport.
Do you think it all gets shut down? Detention centers closed, ICE agents fired, etc?
Or will they feed the new machine with other groups? LGBT? Muslims? Political opponents?
Just food for thought.
In a different part of the world, about 90 years ago, dealing with undesirable people started with prototyping the framework on the weakest individuals.
People with mental disabilities would be shipped to the other end of the country, and there be gassed. Those gassings were in some cases proof of concept for the use of various gasses later on.
I do see the similarities. But I don't believe that the US administration is actively exterminating immigrants. But "at least they're not genocidal" is a pretty low fucking bar to clear. And I'm not sure that we've seen it all yet.
If I was living in the US, I'd get out ASAP. I mean sell my house, even at loss, and GTFO. If being latino with a knuckle tattoo will get you shipped to an El Salvadorian torture prison, what will happen when you post a comment about Trumpaloompa?
They won. They got exactly what they wanted, plus anybody who tried to intervene got arrested along the way. From the headline I thought it would be more like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZcoXdZeabA . There's still massive problems here and our version of ICE have got away with a lot but thankfully nowhere near this stage
It's better that we're all arrested rather than do nothing but watch.
I completely agree and think you can't arrest everyone but I don't see that happening though. Look at the numbers on the street. If more people surrounded them so they could not physically leave, it might be different. What I see is a few brave people trying to stop them and not succeeding, and everyone else staying inside or filming from afar
Yep cause the moment they arrest everyone the leeches will die like every other fucking parasite without a host.
It's a start. People see others standing up, so they will, too, and it will grow. Eventually we will reach a tipping point.
We should praise the act of defiance, without regard for the outcome. They won this time, but not without a fight. Soon they will have a fight every time. Then they will have to choise between escalating, or finding a new strategy. Either way, they are being forced to react involuntarily.
They should have attacked the ICE gestapo agents.
That's next.
Those who abjure violence can do so only because others are committing violence on their behalf.
Melt the ICE.
Joseph Petty call and write the mayor and demand all charges dropped and these people released.
https://www.worcesterma.gov/mayor
Do not stop.
Also arrested was Ashley Spring, a Worcester School Committee candidate and local resident, who police say pushed officers and threw an “unknown liquid” on them.
At least someone in the group stood up to them. If there's a go fund me I'll definitely donate.
She deserves donations a thousand times more than that Mangione fuckface.
Fuck off narc troll.
Once upon a time, in a distant land, a person arrived near a police vehicle while a crowd surrounding the vehicle was argumentative and loud. They dropped a few caltrops and nudged them under the wheels with their toe.
Once upon a time, in a distant land, a guy with a cordless drill disabled some police vehicles in a speed-run. Sadly they had no RC car to mount it on (note: some cleanliness, testing and engineering skills required) or they could have called it a "rig" and proclaimed "drill, baby, drill".
The one story I read had the person doing those things leaving their phone at home and wearing things to shield their face. Some of the stories I've heard also include the main character putting a small rock in their shoe in order to alter their gait to avoid potential detection based on it.
Cool stories...
Soooo those 2nd amendment rights are a joke? Guns were bought just to show off at the range and with buddies?
Trump and his cronies are gonna get your guns its not a matter of if but when.
Rise the fuck up.
Trump doesn't need to come after guns. It's pretty obvious at this point that nobody is using them or ever will. Americans may talk tough about guns but they aren't a threat to the fascists.
Right, but he's dismantling the constitution piece by piece its coming, not a matter of if but when
There has to be millions like me out there that are willing to fight I refuse to believe 200+ million Americans are gonna roll over.
For context, this is in Worcester, MA. Fairly Democrat and progressive area. It’s not like this was happening in Ohio or Nebraska.
This is by design. Have it happen in select locations (Colorado, Massachusetts) so the rest of the country can dismiss it as, "well, at least they aren't here," or a detached, "they probably deserved it," while the behavior is normalized. They've started in Tennessee now to get red states normalized.
It's all a highly illegal long con so people don't realize the country's freedoms and laws being slowly eroded until it is too late.
Stay vigilant.
20k new ICE agents on the way too. Now all the gravy SEAL cosplayers can join up and hurt immigrants. Brown Shirts mobilizing. Authoritarian apparatus is gaining momentum.
Man fuck what that orange fucking pile of shit turned my country into. I hope he dies bleeding from the eyeballs.
This is Trump's America.
Notice how she speaks perfect English. This is clearly someone who doesn't belong in the US /s
Speaking English isn't a requirement to be in the country.
Tell that to the long haul truckers being arrested for not speaking English.
Yet
It's not a requirement but it's a good indication that she's been in the country for a long time, it's not like she just snuck in illegally from her home country. That was my point.
There's close up footage you should watch because it's madness. They throw the teen girl on the ground and assault a bunch of people.
People should start learning how to make thermite and how to immobilize vehicles.
Citizen sabotage was taught by the CIA as an effective way for insurgents in a country we wanted to topple to hurt their defensive and warmaking power.
The best tactic in this regard; incompetence.
Just get a job where you help them. But be bad at it.
Lose papers. Email things backwards. Leave messes. Pour the wrong chemicals in the wrong thing. Send messages on Monday instead of Friday. Spoil supplies by making them wet and letting them rot.
Good thing the enemy has already done half the work in this regard
A man of culture I see.
Start seeding your social media history with MAGA five years ago (they’re smart enough to check that right, they only care about loyalty—forget competence)
Also be bad enough and presumably you’re a terrorist like a Tesla protestor (naughty naughty, only domestic terrorists don’t support Elron)
So um... what're you gonna do with the thermite?
No seriously, I used to do aluminothermic welding, trust me when I say it's an extremely frustrating substance to use. And on top of that, it is incredibly conspicuous. Unless you both know what you're doing and what you're doing can only be done by introducing a huge thermal mass (for example, screwing up a precision bearing surface on a piece of equipment. Note that you can't really cut through material with thermite without using a burnout mold), there are way better ways to accomplish the task. It's just not a great choice, and everything a theoretical citizen resistance would feasibly be doing could be done better, faster and safer (for you) with either some gasoline or bolt cutters...
I don't doubt your expertise and knowledge on the subject, but from veritasium videos on this I would have thought that putting it in a medium size clay flower pot (the ones with a hole at the bottom) and placing it on the car engine hood, it would probably not be a nice outcome for the car. Not total it, but it's not driving away anyway. A can of gasoline is less logistically complicated (just one item, way easier to ignite) but it's also bigger to carry around.
I'm just a person who watched too much youtube videos though.
It's way simpler than that. Gather styrofoam, rags and glass bottles from the alleyways. Get you some gasoline. The rest is known well. All you need is a shopping cart and a container to hold gas. If you have doubts watch news footage of the citizen response in Ukraine to Russian invasion.
What would've been much more useful in this situation is tactics like sticking together (to not be so easily picked out)
This is not okay, and it is not a product of the legal system. When the system fails the people, it's up to the people to deny the system its power. Good on those neighbors getting involved and pushing back.
Man I hope that when this is over, these thugs are hunted to the end of their existence and imprisoned, no matter their age. They should be treated like we treat Nazis of old. "Just following orders" shouldn't fly.
They should be treated like we treat Nazis of old.
Hide them in Argentina while giving them top positions at NASA and the CIA?
Pigs! Fucking... Fuck! Fuck!! Everyday with this shit!
🎵 I'm glad to not be an american, from sea to shining sea 🎵
This won't stop until the job becomes too dangerous for them to do.
Mayor Joseph Petty called the incident “devastating”: “As someone who prides themselves on leading a welcoming city, I am devastated to hear about the separation of a family, especially with Mother’s Day around the corner. The fear of ICE tearing a family apart is the worst nightmare of so many in our city.”
Mayor makes a phone call to the DA, then.
City Police were on the scene and instead of stopping the kidnapping by ICE they subdued citizens trying to stop it. Get fucked Mayor Petty.
Mayor should stop talking about his feelings and get off his tail and do something about it.
These idiot gestapo are going encounter people with guns one of these days and wish they had just stayed home.
And is the mayor's office and the district attorney's office inundated with calls from their constituents demanding accountability for the behaviour of the local police here? Are there locally elected officials being shouted at by their constituents into taking action to thwart, delay, frustrate ICE operations?
"A republic IF YOU CAN KEEP IT"
Fuck 'em up!
With how many people open carry this is dangerous. If they continue to literally KIDNAP people on the streets, somebody will get shot eventually.
people have been saying this for weeks. 0 incidents so far.
Seems like gun owners are A-OK with this going on.
I just moved out of mass a year ago I used to live 15 mins from Worcester where this happened. Just last year they passed a bunch of crazy gun laws so if u didn't already have firearms your not getting much in that state these days ...
That's the ticket! Mob justice! Time to show that the general public and more importantly neighborhoods aren't going to take this tyrannical crap!
Fuck them up. Let's hope it gets worse for these gestapo fucks. Take heads.
Just never look at the YouTube comments. They are HEAVILY botted.
Fuck the Mayor too. Your city is not welcoming when you run a police force that supports this.
What's to stop residents from doing a citizen's arrest of these thugs who fail to properly identify and show a warrant? They're bound to be shot by a good guy with a gun soon...
Tome to arm yourself america
It could have been conjecture but I read on her a few days back that an executive order had absolved ICE from needing to show a warrant, maybe even ID.
I understand that's a massive erosion of American people's constitution but, well, colour me shocked!
hmm if there is no need to show warrant or ID then everyone can impersonate as ICE easily.
"To Serve and Protect..."
This reminds me of V for Vendetta
A people should not be afraid of it's government, a government should be afraid of it's people.
And when the government isn't afraid of the people, what then?
Don't get me wrong, I loved that movie. But when I grew up a bit I realized that in the pivotal moment, the military would ABSOLUTELY have gunned down that crowd of people wearing masks. It's happened before, a lot.
Sadly, you're not wrong :(
They had the same situation in Iran 1979 for example, and the military refused direct orders from the king to fire on the crowds. However, Iran had a conscript military and not the 'professional' thuggery of the modern US volunteer military.
It's only a matter of time before something like this turns into a Haymarket Square
MA state leaders are cowards, they know the cops support Trump and gladly lie to us about it
Based
Oh boy, USA sure is an interesting country.
Land of the free babyt
My wife was making a case to visit the US as tourists. Now I am sue as hell I will never set foot there.
Under the current circumstances I wouldn't dream of setting foot there, even if I was invited.
Do these come in bulletproof
“put their hands on federal agents and Worcester officers.”
They put their disgusting little hands on the officers, they deserve to be shot!
The officers do, indeed, deserve to be shot.
How many cases were there where there were no furious residents?
Cursed cameraman. I've seen steadier shots from a schooner in a 35 foot wave.
Fuck ACAB nonsense. But also, fuck ICE. Beat them to a pulp.
Commenting "fuck ACAB nonsense" on a post that clearly demonstrates ACAB is kinda wild. Did you not read how the local PD enabled the ICE thugs by arresting people for "laying hands on federal agents"? Those Cs aren't Bs?
