Antifa used to unmask neo-Nazis, now it's exposing ICE: Predators don't get anonymity'

"Last week a photographer for the Minneapolis Star Tribune filmed a border patrol agent approach a protester, lying prone in the street, and aim a canister of pepper spray at his eyes. The protester was already detained, three other agents pressing his body into the pavement, but the agent can nevertheless be seen spraying the orange chemical irritant, which causes excruciating pain, at point-blank range."

"But within two hours of the Star Tribune posting the footage to social media, a group called Pacific Antifascist Research Collective claimed to have identified him. The collective which days earlier promised in a post to identify ICE terrorists until ICE's campaign of terror is stopped and the armed thugs and their leadership are held accountable made flyers of the agent's face for people to share online, or to print out and tape to telephone poles and buildings across Minneapolis."

Within two hours of the footage appearing on social media, the Pacific Antifascist Research Collective claimed to have identified the agent and produced multilingual flyers labeling him 'SUSPECTED KIDNAPPER/TERRORIST' for online sharing and public posting. The collective describes itself as an autonomous research group providing communities with research and tools to protect themselves from fascism.
