"I spent the weekend like probably a lot of you did: staring at my phone and just feeling shock and sick about what is happening in Minneapolis. One video after another, just screaming people being torn from their families. Americans-people who were born in the United States, being pulled out of their cars for the crime of having an accent. Small children, babies, being tear-gassed, taken into custody, separated from their parents,"
"Just one atrocity after another, being committed by this gang of poorly-trained, shamefully-led, mask-wearing goons. And that is what they are-they're goons committing vile, heartless and even criminal acts. And it's sickening to watch. It's frustrating to watch. It's like we're all being forced to play a game that has no rules. They just make up the rules as they go along."
"They fired ten times on an ICU nurse, they're telling us, 'Oh, it was justified.' Is that the law and order that you voted for, if you voted for this? Every day is a nightmare now. My wife and I have family in Minneapolis-they're afraid to take their kids to school. They're afraid to go to work."
ICE operations in Minneapolis involved aggressive tactics against protesters and civilians, including forcibly removing people from vehicles, tear-gassing children, and separating parents from infants. Video footage shows Americans and long-term residents subjected to confrontations allegedly for speaking with accents. Agents have been described as poorly trained and mask-wearing, making arbitrary rules and committing repeated abuses. Reports indicate an ICU nurse was shot multiple times and authorities deemed the action justified. Families in Minneapolis now fear sending children to school or going to work, and broad questions arise about leadership, accountability, and targeting of dissenting cities.
