Multiple eyewitness accounts of ICE's shooting of two people in Portland agree that ICE opened fire AFTER the pickup truck with the two individuals was already driving away, violating DHS's own rules.
They opened fire in a public area, near a hospital, without regard for safety.
Lawless thugs.

ICE THUGS arrested a pastor & kept asking him "Are you afraid?" numerous occasions. The pastor said NO. Eventually the THUGS let him go stating that "You're WHITE, you're no fun to us!!"

🚨 Emergency appeal from the Pokrovsk front!
The 117th Brigade is operating under relentless attacks and has lost critical equipment‼️
Every day, these soldiers carry out dangerous missions - ☑️evacuating the wounded, ☑️moving troops, and ☑️delivering supplies under fire‼️
They need a ✨drone jammer.

Unless & until some local jurisdiction fully investigates one of these rogue, murderous ICE agents, this will continue. Criminals like these will keep killing people until there's a price to pay for doing so.
And they'll have to do it alone. They won't get help from the FBI or any other fed agency.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.
I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand
