Trump's promised ICE raids have begun

Armitage72 said:
It reminds me of that story from a number of years ago about a mechanic who beat two men with a tire iron because they had beards and robes and approached him making "terroristic threats".
They were Greek Orthodox priests trying to ask directions to a nearby religious conference.

Sounds like you may be recalling this story:

Marine reservist charged in attack on priest in Tampa [ Sarasota Herald-Tribune - November 10, 2009]

A Marine reservist was charged with attacking a Greek Orthodox priest he mistook for a terrorist.

Jasen D. Bruce allegedly hit 29-year-old Alexios Marakis over the head with a tire iron and chased him for three blocks Monday evening before Tampa police officers intervened.

Marakis, a Greek Orthodox priest visiting from Crete, told police he had stopped to ask the 28-year-old reservist for help after getting lost in downtown Tampa. He had just performed a blessing of another priest and accidentally got off the highway.

ICE break into local police station—storm past man guarding door with weapons drawn.

Agents threaten man with shooting taser—then violently detain him against brick wall.

Man was just peacefully sitting in police station lobby.

Agents never show a warrant—or even ask his name.

Incident occurred at the Police Department Headquarters in the Country Club Hills suburb of Chicago, Illinois.

Person filming doesn't have an account on this platform—so posting first full length and credited video here to help raise awareness.

ICE officer fatally shoots Mexican man in Houston during traffic stop

An Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer fatally shot a Mexican immigrant in Houston on Tuesday during an attempted traffic stop arrest, federal authorities said.

ICE identified the man as Lorenzo Salgado Araujo and said he was in the United States illegally and refused to comply with officers during an enforcement operation.

“From information we are receiving, he rammed an ICE law enforcement vehicle, refused to follow multiple verbal commands, and weaponized his vehicle in an attempt to run over an ICE law enforcement officer resulting in our officer firing his weapon in self-defense,” the agency said in a statement.

ICE stated that “emergency services were immediately contacted” and that Salgado Araujo died from his injuries at an area hospital.

That's what they said about Renee Goode.
 
I wonder if he "rammed the vehicle" in the same way the Chicago woman did before they shot her 5 times . . . then later dropped all charges.

That would be too late for this gentleman however.

A Mexican man living in the U.S. who was fatally shot by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent was not the person federal authorities had been targeting in a Houston operation, U.S. Rep. Sylvia Garcia said Thursday.

The Democratic congresswoman, whose district includes the Houston neighborhood where the shooting occurred, said acting ICE Director David Venturella told her the agency has confirmed Lorenzo Salgado Araujo "was not a target."

Salgado Araujo was a homebuilder who had lived in the U.S. for more than 35 years, had no criminal record and was close to finishing the long process of obtaining legal status when he was killed early Tuesday morning, according to his family.

Asked whether ICE agents had been specifically targeting Salgado Araujo, DHS said earlier Thursday that officers had been surveilling a property where they had previously observed two white vans.

"On July 7, officers were almost at the target's address when they observed a white van with an individual who resembled the target. Officers then initiated the vehicle stop," the department said.

The federal agents weren't wearing body-worn cameras, DHS said, and few photos or videos surrounding the shooting have emerged publicly in the days since the encounter, unlike other deaths involving federal immigration officers.

Homan on Fatal TX Shooting by ICE: The media doesn’t trust ICE. Why is that? The vast majority of media, they constantly tell lies about what ICE is doing and they base that on members of congress who want to compare ICE to the secret police. We’re winning the public back because we're putting the truth out there.
