ICE agent points gun directly at the head of innocent civilian—just for taking picture of his license plate. He drew his gun with one hand—while fumbling to open the car door with the other. The "agent" did not seem to be aware someone else was already recording his vehicle. Pasadena, California.
Full local news coverage by KTLA 5 ⬇️ Pasadena is currently the target of multiple ICE raids. Masked plainclothes agents wearing bulletproof vests were also seen questioning men on a park bench—arresting them along with other day laborers. The men were put into an unmarked minivan & taken away.
Jokes gonna be on ALL y'all when Vinny and Giovanni charge 4x as much to mow your lawns.
The real problem with masked, plainclothes ICE agents? Local police aren’t arresting them. If you or I wore face coverings and unmarked clothes bought off Amazon, without ID and assaulting people, we’d be in jail. Why are they getting a pass?
Agents? Agents of what? We don’t know who they are. When are people going to take matters into their own hands? I remember the community stopped Richard Ramirez on the street. Can we do that here? This is some BS.
They’re bounty hunters and they’re getting money per migrant… it’s abhorrent and shouldn’t have been allowed by any politician
Some concerned representative might just write a very strong letter
If they are bounty hunters, then the amnesty for farm and hotel workers is bullshit. There certainly isn’t any due process about where a bounty hunter kidnapped a person.
I never for a second believed that exemption for farm and hotel workers.
The Stock Market believed it.
Source on ICE using bounty hunters?
www.reddit.com/r/PublicFrea...
Do you have a source that isn't a random reddit post
This article says it is just a guy saying this but it was published earlier this year. Maybe this sicko was really trying to warn us?? amp.tri-cityherald.com/news/politic...
Sounds like you're standard issue local nazi crank trying to sound tough. But who knows! I don't think it's all impossible. I just also don't think it's possible that this large a secret could be kept this well by this many demonstrably stupid people.
is this not the exact same footage from the tiktok
📌
amp.tri-cityherald.com/news/politic...
These are absolutely federal agents of one of the DHS agencies. People need to stop spreading misinformation about this.
How do you know that?
🧐
If you go to the TikTok video it has a link to the YouTube page for the municipality, and there's a ~90 minute municipal hearing, with this guy being the last speaker. I can't attest to the truth of it, but it was said months ago. bsky.app/profile/msgr...
Yes. Makes you curious, doesn't it? Well?
From Mississippi: desotomsda.gov/2025/01/22/d...
Unfortunately, we don't know who the person in this video is or who the people conducting some other captures are, so we don't know if they are or aren't bounty hunters.
Source that they’re not? After Minnesota I don’t believe LEO in uniform are legit. No license plates? No ID? Drawing arms like that? They’re goons.
That's not how proving claims works. These are cops and agents, not random boogeymen.
The guy in Minnesota was wearing a mask over his face that was meant to look like a different face. Fuck ICE and all that, but if someone is crouching behind my vehicle like that I’m gonna consider them a possible threat also.
It's not been actively confirmed, but this interview sparked a lot of interest as to exactly why so many supposed agents seem to lack the basic features and behavior of trained government agents: www.nbcrightnow.com/news/alleged...
This isn’t your fault but: I’m so glad I can read an entire singular sentence and have the rest of it be littered with ads /s
I run pi-hole, noscript, and a few other goodies to keep my browsing experience clean...so yeah, I didn't see that (thankfully) either.
Why do you think the Cop City facilities were training civilian volunteers to arrest immigrants in the past few years? You remember that, right? Let's connect the dots here.
there’s no evidence of that. ICE aren’t dangerous and unaccountable because they’re NOT federal agents they’re scary and unaccountable because they ARE. there’s a lot of folks these days insisting they must not work for the government because they have a naive faith in the lie of america.
I think the ICE forces were rapidly expanding by hiring a bunch of J6 militia guys.
They've always recruited white supremacists and racists so that isn't in doubt here.
Exactly. To be clear, no one is trying to absolve actual federal agents from “following orders”… two things can be true at once: federal agents, and Jan6ers/bounty hunters can all be doing this dirty work.
Oh that is absolutely not true, there are plenty of people who claim every single one of these events arent actually ICE because "actual agents wouldn't do that". I see it on literally every post about ICE doing evil shit.
I’m sure there are, however that’s not what was inferred by saying that federal agents are not the only ones doing these raids…
only thing in doubt is the hiring part. they already worked there and just couldn’t make it. too busy preparing to break some deportation records with their new boss joe
that’s a conspiracy theory and it doesn’t even make sense. ICE employs 20,000 agents. there are SHOCKINGLY few of these white nationalist militia guys. of the over 700 people arrested after jan 6 can you guess how many were these organized extremists? 31. 28 cops or former cops.
the reality is border enforcement is made up of bottom of the barrel cops who either got fired or couldn’t make the cut to be a regular cop so they join ICE or CBP. yeah these guys give jan 6 vibes. it’s because they’ve ALWAYS been the same kinda guys for decades and decades, no conspiracy needed.
so i guess what i’m saying is it’s way worse than the conspiracy you’ve offered. CBP and ICE have always been fascists and there’s an order of magnitude more of them than there are militia guys. they’re friendly to militias, overlap with them significantly and always have.
I would make an exception for BORTAC as far as being bottom of the barrel. But that’s like…200 guys.
This. getting very tired of blueanon bullshit
Very much feels like it's a campaign to separate "real" ICE from "fake" ICE so that the "real" ICE can be left alone because they were good little boys obeying the law and only bad bad impersonators did the evil things, the federal agency is still good guys.
it simultaneously runs cover for the horrible abuses ICE and it’s counterparts have inflicted in the recent past. it refuses to grapple with the root of the problem: border enforcement. biden did that! obama did that! it can’t be *bad* can it!?? kill me
Which feels especially weird considering how new ICE is, how little history it has. I'm in my mid-40s and I'm old enough to be ICE's dad. Baffling how anyone could be so invested in needing to believe that the agency itself couldn't possibly be the problem.
here’s a wiki about the time the INS did a lot of the same shit ICE is doing now. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operati... yeah the name IS just a slur. history of border enforcement is still extremely relevant despite the recency of the DHS
truth is dead
*they are contract Agents with no general policing power. Every "arrest" is an illegal abduction.
100% this. We need to stop repeating and believing the b.s. phrase "this is not who we are". Friends, this is EXACTLY who we are.
dangerous* not scary, edited my phrasing mid comment and messed up
Exactly correct
We're trying, Patty. They may be serial killers, but they're now moving in armed and armored caravans, so it's not quite as easy as tackling a dude. Support your local protesters, even when it gets messy.
I know. I don’t even know what I’d do at my Costco in La habra. I hope I’d have the guts to do something!!!
Please don't tackle any gangs of masked gunmen. But it's legal to record in public areas, and shouting profanity is firmly protected by the first amendment. ✊
"Federal agent".
do you even know it's a federal agent? not clear.
How do they know they're federal agents? FFS
Shoot them and find out?
Do we all need to be armed Now to prevent this?
They need to come up with something more official for ICE. Plain clothed, bandana, no license plates men are showing up kidnapping people. This is out of hand. Who is ice? It's disturbing.
Looks like an armed cartel to me.
I know you mean "federal agent" TY for bringing this to everyone's attention www.youtube.com/watch?v=HDKf... @maddow.msnbc.com @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com @joyannreid.bsky.social @velshi.com @ayman.msnbc.com @katiephang.bsky.social
Since no one in the administration is giving anybody any information or accountability, is it possible that these people have been deputized? They have access to where their prey is going to be. That has to be supplied by the government. I just assumed they were proud boys that were deputized.
Even if that's true, that doesn't relieve them of their obligation to identify themselves as "police" OR to show a warrant (just bc you claim to be a cop doesn't mean you have probable cause to detain). Otherwise you're just impersonating police, which is a felony
All true, but they clearly have no regard for the law anymore. Whatever is necessary. I'm sure Miller didn't even bother to have them deputized.
When the law returns to democratic (small "d") hands, the hands of people who believe in and abide by the law, that's the kind of fact that will make a difference in getting convictions

Who the fuck are these LARPing assholes? Enough is enough. We must hold the line. 😡
They're ICE agents, it's not a conspiracy. This is just how they are.
The ice Gestapo is composed of ignorant criminals who are not qualified for any real job. Gang of thugs and losers
DUH
I’m very surprised one of these 🧊 guys hasn’t been shot already.
Federal agent? Probably more like a third or fourth party bounty hunter contractor.
(More) people are going to get killed by these trigger-happy jackasses.
I’ve been seeing them, usually with tons of Highway Patrol SUVs helping them, pulling people over all over Pasadena since Monday. People are hiding. The streets are half empty. It fucking sucks
it's bizarre that people think "call the cops, press charges, this is illegal" matters here. the police are helping these guys. they're not going to stop them in any way
It was noticeable that it was CHP and not Pasadena Police. CHP way down on Lake and Orange Grove, no freeway over there 🤨
It’s the sort of thing someone from Patriot Front or Proud Boys would do if just given a badge and the authority of LEO, with no training. Lawyers are going to make a lot of money off of DHS before this is over.
I like the thought of accountability, it’s an American value and all. But why would you think the Supreme Court would let any lawyer win one of these cases?
SCOTUS has decided against Trump treated. Justice Barrett and Kavanaugh are on the MAGA hit list now.
By that time, Trump will be 💀 or in bedlam, and his former cronies will be racing to turn states evidence for the new Nuremberg trials.
He is not a trained officer. Who are these people??
Looks like a terrorist, not an ice agent. Did they have a name tag?
JFC, are these dudes actually law enforcement?
@governor.ca.gov Pls do something re these masked thugs terrorizing our communities? This has to stop. Don't care if they're feds - they're violating regulations, committing crimes, & disregarding our constitution rights. They're not going to leave if we ask nicely. We need to FORCE them out.
Where can one report a masked man in a car pulling a firearm out on a civilian while stopped in traffic in Pasadena in the middle of the day? Since Trump took over, masked crime has been out of control.
What a pathetic manchild. What kind of pussy points a gun at someone just taking a picture? 🙄 I'll give you something to point a gun at you bitch ass. 🖕
@why-gestapo-shaped.bsky.social
Little boys with guns...pathetic.
Thugs. Domestic Terrorists
Find out who that license plate belongs too. Also immediately outlaw shaded license plates. Expose, shame, prevent more attacks.
lmao of course he's got the toll-camera-blocking license plate cover, perfect
they're not death squads, yet.
Under Ninth Circuit precedent, pointing a gun against an unarmed person in such circumstances is excessive force and qualified immunity no longer applies: case-law.vlex.com/vid/robinson...
Wait really??
Yes. “[A]s a general principle, pointing a gun to the head of an apparently unarmed suspect during an investigation can be a violation of the Fourth Amendment, especially where the individual poses no particular danger.” www.courtlistener.com/opinion/7763...
With more thought, "I feared for my life" gets them off for murder, so, I'm guessing "I thought my life was in danger" carries the same outcome here??
No, the officer’s subjective beliefs are immaterial. The question is what danger would a reasonably well-trained officer apprehend under the circumstances? In the Ninth Circuit, cops don’t have carte Blanche to use excessive force by pointing guns at unarmed citizens exercising the right to record.
Do murder charges against officers ever go to the Ninth Court? I'm not entirely clear on the procedures.
What I'm hearing is that the Ninth Court is what makes it different?
I understand that that is the law. How does it apply irl though. Is this legally different than the laws about not shooting unarmed, non threatening people?
In real life, the only laws that law enforcement follow 100% of the time are the laws of physics.
My questioning is sincere, I'm hoping to fill in blank areas of my grasp of the legal systems. I'm wanting to know if the Ninth Court follows different rules, regarding the officer's asserted perception of danger?
That “officer” used deadly force to stop someone from taking a picture of his tag. Options: 1. He’s not a cop and committed aggravated assault by Georgia law. 2. He is a cop and likely violated his use of force policy by committing an aggravated assault on someone NOT using deadly force.
Now we see it also.
Somebody run the F*ckin plates. There is no justification for pulling and pointing a gun in this scenario.
Was that a black ICE agent? Jesus fuck. Pull the ladder up behind you, huh?
I hate these guys as much as the next person, but this looks like a taser to me. A lot different from pulling an actual firearm.
It’s actually not any different because he’s still brandishing a weapon against a person committing no crime.
Jack booted thugs
Gestapo Nazi goons
So when is the “agent” arrested?
Send lawyers, guns and money the shit has hit the fan.
Also, since when can law enforcement draw weapons against someone not presenting a direct threat?
Correct me if I am wrong, but federal agents conducting official business are supposed to use official vehicles. Since ice is not undercover, why is he using a vehicle with civilian plates? Something definitely smells.
Does his vest say Police on it?
Fed agents may draw their weapons when they reasonably believe it is necessary according to their agency's use of force policies. This includes situations where they perceive an imminent threat of death or serious physical injury to themselves or others, or when a suspect poses an immediate threat
“When they reasonably believe it is necessary.” It wasn’t fucking necessary in this case. That line of BS is how they are going to get away with murder.
Someone taking a picture is not a threat. Are they drawing weapons on these people doing because deep down they know detaining all these people is wrong?
Like stuffing bananas up the exhaust pipe a la Axel Foley.
Where is the fuckin threat?
Who taught these assholes how to holster a handgun? Seriously it's amateur hour.
I thought he might blow his leg off trying to get back in the car while fumbling to put the gun away. Smooth.
As always, ACAB.
Sure looks like assault with a deadly weapon to me. He had no law enforcement justification for drawing his weapon.
Oh my goodness we can all see the license plate! That would be awful if someone ran those plates and identified the driver.
Fuck these guys.
Not law enforcement.
US population need to be told about a whole new bunch of (imagined) laws that ICE are operating by.. lethal force for taking a photo of their numberplate ?? seems like something to be told (or, go through congress etc, lol)
This is dumb, the person taking a photo didn't need to be that close to his car.... the phone has a zoom feature....
Interesting that they have license plate reader blockers covering their license plates. Is this a government vehicle or a civilian vehicle? I have never seen a government vehicle with these covers on them.
ICE = Gestapo
Cap that one.
Is that "tactical" shit in his pants, or just regular shit in his pants?
That’s the thing. They’re surprisingly completely unaware that everyone has one or more cameras on them at all time now.
And he can't even holster it. That's an untrained street idiot given a gun a gun to harass citizens.
I think ICE calls that a wellness check
Fucking NAZIS
Back when I was an agent, if you pulled a gun on someone there would be LOTS of paperwork, and you'd be pulled off duty until an investigation was complete. That was then, this is Trump's America. Gotta wonder if this goon is actually a sworn officer.
I doubt he’s a sworn anything.
It scared me when I saw an ice agents pull a gun on a protestor for taking pictures of ice car license plate. Someone's going to get killed using their tactics.
Bad training, bad intentions.
Of course he isn't
It's looking more and more like they're using deputized militias or bounty hunters. The discipline and planning simply isn't there.
Thanks for answering my question there! As someone with no experience, I was wondering what the protocol is for drawing one’s weapon and what the repercussions are. (Same with mask protocol). Though clearly we need to qualify “normally” vs “in Trump’s America” now when discussing LE.
Yeah. I feel like we are going to find out some batshit crazy things about who these people are, where they were recruited from, and how poorly trained they were. Just gotta survive this admin first.
Maybe these people. Article from 2020. www.esquire.com/news-politic...
Oh fuck that actually makes sense
Shit. I remember this...
YES. These "agents" are NOT federally employed. They are likely contract henchmen and TRAITORS willing to harass and kidnap anyone they racially profile regardless of status. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
We know the Trump Regime was using private contract “agents” when they kidnapped people to the El Salvador Gulag because at least 2 instances of sending incorrectly identified “gang members” involved private contractors who were prior cops that had been FIRED! www.yahoo.com/news/another...
God help us.
Oh shit. Blackwater is quite the callback to Season One of Fascist Celebrity Apprentice.
👇
unsalted.noblogs.org/post/2025/06...
Pretty sure he is not. Folks are saying Bounty Hunters, but they know better than to claim they are agents. My bet is that they are militia/Jan 6 rioters.
My partner callS them all Proud Boys if they're masked, don't have agency badges or clearly, properly marked uniforms. How do we know any of these clowns are sworn officers in anything, with any kind of oversight or legal consequences for illegal behavior. AND THEY ARE BEHAVING LIKE PROUD BOYS.
in a functioning society that officer would be fired
Funny. You said “officer.” They’re ducking stormtroopers and the Miller Youth.
He would also be charged with a whole slew of firearm charges.
📌
Trump's basically like what if WE had a cartel but I'm in charge of it.
Where is the arrest warrant for that masked criminal?
Aggravated assault right there
Fucking hell
They’re not ‘agents’ they’re masked gunmen. This has to stop—CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES!!
That ICE goof woulda failed the psych eval, had he gotten one.
I have had a gun pointed at me completely needlessly in a traffic stop during the Obama administration. I'm sure it has left lingering trauma. Police violence and impunity is a national wound that has been festering for decades. It's so American this might as well be a gif of an apple pie.
This is not to excuse the almost-murderer in this video clip. I am appalled by it as much as you all are.
Out of control lawlessness from ICE…again
How do we even know this is ice? You can buy their fake uniforms on Amazon. I mean I can buy some khakis and wear a mask just like they do.
Because this is exactly what ICE was created to do and exactly the way their agents have always behaved.
Anyone can pretend to be ICE, and ICE can pretend to be anyone. Wack.
The point is, whether commissioned or not, these masked cretins are straight out of the gestapo, and tbh, I don’t think people should get used to the idea that this is going away anytime soon, especially in LA and other large blue state cities
If it’s even ICE, not that I’m sure it makes a difference now
🇨🇦 here - you guys are soooooo fu_ked. We'll check back in with you in a few years. Maybe just try to stay within your own borders til then.
Brandishing a weapon is a misdemeanor punishable by a minimum of 30 days in jail. This “officer” needs to be found, arrested, charged, and then tried for this crime.
I think we’re officially a shit hole country now.
Horrible. Sometimes giving a man or woman a gun and a badge is the worst thing that you can do to them.
Any bets they're taking kids off the street as well?
He identifies as American Gestapo.
Gestapo!
Ah man. On the one hand, I know exactly where that is: I used to live near there. But on the other, I don’t even recognise the place any more.
What a wuss
Some of these have to be proud boys.
Fck the ICESTAPO 😡
That's assault with a deadly weapon for any civilian.
@tizzyent.bsky.social Can we make this agent famous? He shouldn't be running around with a loaded weapon.
Eventually one of these "agents" is going FAFO.
Notice how ice agent has one of those convex plate covers that make them hard to read too. Just like a criminal
Prison.
Please tell me there is no way something like that would never happen from a real law enforcement officer of any type, who has had appropriate training.
it's fully possible and happens all the time. they train to do this shit you can search for articles on "killology" and you'll find hundreds of towns protesting their local cops using this program, and being ignored.
I was trying to find the right balance between earnest and sarcastic there...
Unfortunately, HSI/ICE can and does change out their license plates on G-cars as needed. Their available plates include a variety of options, even foreign plates from Chihuahua and Sonora in Mexico.
Thugs, goons, gangsters etc., but not “agents”!
Or all the above
Look at where we are compared to a month ago. Where will we be in another month's time? How long until the bodies start piling up?
This is our America now, Ice pulling a gun on an American citizen for take a Pic of his license plate! YOU ALL CAN THANK EVERYONE WHO VOTED FOR TACO! THEN THANK TACO!
You can save some thanks for everyone who voted to create "Homeland Security" in the first place.
These are not agents but trump thugs. It’s only a matter of time before someone gets killed. Then it will be absolute bedlam.
that idiot "agent" couldn't even re-holster his weapon correctly, probably lucky he didn't shoot himself
The photographer is a true patriot.
That guy's not ICE... ITS A MAGA-NAZI TERRORIST. If you see these MAGA-gangsters from your home and have a rifle at the ready... Protect the citizen being attacked by this criminal with fake accessories. Even as he drives away... Shoot out his windows, then call police on him
Seems like it would be pretty easy if you wanted to infiltrate an ICE facility.
Lucky it's all on video. That agent is gonna be severely disciplined if not fired.
I wish but I doubt it
By whom? Plastic face gNoem?
More likely promoted given the current administration.
So had the man not left he would’ve been executed for taking a photo?
What that gunman did there is illegal. To use MAGA vernacular, he’s an “illegal.” He needs to self-deport.
I hope they are going to charge and arrest him. Enough is enough. Time to shut this crap down.
Aren’t those plate dimmer/disguisers illegal now? They are in WA state.
Correct. CVC 5201
Thank you for the code. Here is the link. leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_... California Code, VEH 5201. This guy was in Pasadena. Which I believe is California. (Said in Inspector Clouseau voice) Washington’s is RCW 46.16A.200
* correction
That's Inspector Japp.
Damn. I didn’t want to do the steve martin or pink panther one. Pretend it isn’t. Just kidding. Where’d Inspector Japp come from? Here:
Agatha Christie. Lordy. I liked the sandwich and it popped up when I put Closeau. Unfortunately he’s not a bumbling eedjut like Closeau so he wouldn’t go with my imaginary statement. Thanks for correction.
License plate covers like that are illegal in California.
Is he really an ICE agent? They all seem to be very poorly trained thugs who are GI Joe wanna-be’s.
How many of these clowns are just the guys who used to impersonate cops, taking advantage of a uge loophole? Or like human traffickers, serial killers, PDFs, whatever. Like for real
More than zero, I’d wager
I don't think you can call them federal agents when they don't uphold the constitution. The word is traitors. Or thugs, goons, brown shirts, literal trash. Whatever
That looks like a taser to me. Are we sure?
Please let that happen in front of me so I can crush him with my car and make a wheelchair bound ICE agent
Holy shit
It's only a matter of time before someone from #ICE kills an innocent American citizen, probably sooner than many of us think.
This ICE mask thugs group has all the ingredients to turn out to be a State within a State very soon.
Secret police hate this one weird trick.
It's still an unreasonable and possibly unlawful reaction, but my first thought was that he believed the person crouched behind his car was doing something besides filming. If I saw someone duck behind my car I would feel suspicious. Would I go point a gun? Probably not.
stuff should happen
To be fair to the occupants of that vehicle, they have little to no idea what he’s doing behind them crouched down.
Damn! What the fuck is wrong with these people (la migra)? They are in unmarked cars, generally not wearing uniforms or even name tags – how does the average citizen know that what they're witnessing is an ICE raid and not an actual kidnapping?
One of these days, a normal citizen is going to witness this kind of incident, pull their concealed weapon and shoot this supposed ICE agent. Don't they want some kind of identifier to protect themselves? Or does their cruelty override everything else?
Can anyone prove these people are federal agents? Someone prove they are aren’t rouge people with guns and masks
Nazis
When noone enforces due process, you are losing your state. And still there is no *significant* resistance. That is how Rome fell down... decadency
Yeah, definitely looks like a deadly force scenario 🙄. What kind of training did these assholes get?
We have GOT to stop calling them ICE agents! Unless they can be proven as such, they’re just kidnappers. Call them what they are.
When are these guys gonna get arrested?? Call the cops you have the video and plate #??
1000% anti-ICE, but use common sense! If someone was behind my car doing some 💩 in these time, might get the same or close to experience. He better be glad he didn’t put in reverse. USE YOUR DAMN HEAD WHEN DEALING W/TRIGGER HAPPY MOFO’s! There’s other ways to obtain info.
Get a grip yo. He was taking a picture with his phone. LEARN: SITUATIONAL AWARENESS. ESCALATION OF FORCE. IF YOU PULL IT, YOU BETTER USE IT.
This is 100% "well, maybe don't have 3 drinks and walk down that alley while wearing a skirt, how can you even blame the rapist" level thinking
They would not get that from me. Perhaps because I don’t carry a gun and don’t have a constant itch to use it. I would have gotten out of my car and asked why they were taking a photo, sure. No guns needed.
Perhaps because you’re a sane person and that’s what would have been done. There is nothing same about ICE or anyone perpetrating as them! If more people acted like you would might make matters less violent!
By saying that the victim needed to take precautions, you’re essentially blaming the victim, though. Escalation of force is always the fault of the perpetrator, not the victim.
I’m not blaming the victim I’m concerned about the victim. We all could be angry, up in arms if that MOFO shot him, but guess what? You’re in your home playing keyboard pirate & his ass is dead, & family grieving for a damn photo! My opinion is to think before U act. That cop would have walked!
"Well she shouldn't have been wearing a skirt if she didn't want to be assaulted." Fuck outta here.
Your ass would have 💩 bricks if it was you getting that gun pointed in your face. My concern if you can comprehend is for the man with the camera to make it home ALIVE to his family. If you have ever had a gun in your face it’s a whole different life! Cool heads are needed before someone gets shot!
Yeah man, the dude with the camera is the one to blame for this whole situation. 👍
Hard disagree, they need to feel pressure everywhere they're at and every time they are identified.
So pulling a gun on someone who is doing something that is legal is the fault of the person that the gun is aimed at?
I think you'll find the problem is the 'trigger happy mofo', not the witness being a witness. Happy to help.
Lethal force may only be used in the face of lethal force. When do we get to shoot back? The 2A was made for this.
Fucking pigs
Fing thugs.
$100 says they're bounty hunters. Couldn't quite make out the plate, but I bet they're civilian plates.
So it turns out that if you're going to record the license plate number of vehicles used by ICE, a perfectly legal action, you have to be sure to do it in pairs: one to record the license plate number and one to record the overall interaction with the hyper-militarized hair-trigger gun-toting feds.
Here a new complexity: ICE agents are swapping plates on their SUVs. Other reports are of SUVs being used by masked bandits in tac gear driving without plates at all. We can only hope a cop stops one so we find out who they are, ICE, or militia, or normal crooks. bsky.app/profile/chad...
Not American anymore
Jesus Christ. Ice is fucking out of control! This is untenable.
Not a federal agent
Not trained officers. Just a group of thugs
So did we catch that number?
Yes, "agent". Or, *alleged agent*.
Well soon find out who that was!
A police report of a man pulling a gun on a civilian oh and here’s the video
Start destroying the gestapo.
Seems like a potential crime.
Pulling your gun like that is 100% illegal, fed or not
How does one KNOW that’s an ICE Agent? They REALLY should have local or state police Chaperones.
When we say “Abolish ICE,” this is what we mean. This rot is baked into ICE at an institutional level. Whole agency must be dismantled, agents fired and black-listed from LEO jobs.
Isn't it illegal to have coverings that obscure the license plate? 🤔
When, or will, there be accountability , and prison sentences for these thugs ? Can the license plate be traced ?
Dbag
Thinks he'll get a pass from a White supremacist regime for being a good little henchman. That's adorable.
Who says that’s a federal agent? No police officer or FBI or any officer points their gun unless they shoot.
And that is NO GSA Plate or CA Exempt Plate, that looks like a normal License Plate, so who ever took the picture may have exposed a Fake or Hate Group member which is probably risky issue here, but might be helpful if Mayor Bass can Address this, so could @splcenter.org quite quickly.
Is that... Is that his fat gut jiggling around under his body armour? No surprise he waddled back to his car when the guy ran, fat Gestapo ass motherfucker
Hmmm...maybe some spike sticks are in order.
📌
Cool that there is absolutely zero accountability and no process for identifying, much less disciplining, these out-of-control assholes that we’re paying with our taxes. If these are the “rules”, what’s to stop them from gunning people down with impunity?
We need to stop calling them agents or officers. They AREN'T, until they prove otherwise by producing ID. They are un-uniformed thugs and criminals and should be arrested on sight for impersonating law enforcement officers.
Wtf you s wrong with people?!?!
It are they REAL agents or just racist assholes?!
That guy is NOT an officer of the law if he's #ICE, and that means that he could have easily been shot by drawing his weapon like that; and honestly, probably deservedly so. If you go around brandishing a pistol randomly, expect to get shot; that's just common sense.
Never seen anyone at the range handle a firearm that sloppy. No way that goon is a professional let alone even experienced in handling firearms regularly.
Good point! He did look very green ha. Oh and scared, he was the aggressor, but he looked scared while doing it.
They are scared. From the bottom to the top the right live fear, breathe fear.
Seriously? A federal agent? More like a bounty hunter.
More proof these are NOT trained law enforcement.
Yup. You just know these are right wing militia recruits who have been deputized without much training or background training.
what did you think cops were?
Paranoid. Aggressive. Jumpy. Do we have theories about what drugs these guys are on?
🤔 😟 🧐 🤔 😟 🧐 🤔 😟 🧐 📸. 📸 The gestapo agent is the criminal not the individuals that were grabbed. Images like these are so telling. It’s like taking a photo or video of a bank robbery that is in progress. For an agent to actually take a threating stance, then aim a gun at a person is the crime.
Masked people with guns kidnapping people. How is this not a recipe for disaster.
🤬
wow, just plain state sponsored violence
So had anyone tracked the plate number yet?
Streisand effect.
Me (a responsible level headed gun owner): Oh...oh yeah I understand what you guys mean now.
Local authorities should charge for brandishing. Penal Code § 417 PC makes it a crime to brandish a firearm or a deadly weapon. Brandishing means to draw or exhibit the weapon in a threatening manner or to use it in a fight (other than in lawful self-defense).
I cant get a good facial enhancement on this one but it sounds like you guys will have this one figured out soon. #IDICE
“Federal agent”
@blackintellect.bsky.social
Of course it's illegal for civilians to access the license database but I'd love to see if they can find who this asshole is. Cops are trained to NOT draw guns on civilians without damn good reason.
I’m sorry, where are the local cops protecting the people and arresting these goons??
They are doing their jobs daily: to protect and serve property and the assets of the owners of property
lmao
They’re friends with the cops or perhaps cops themselves.
Then they should be fired by the mayor. But then they’d just join the goons. We are fucked.
No law and order from ICE. Lock them up
That's not a man so much as it's a scaredy little bitch.
These ice fucks are out of control if civil war breaks out it will be because they messed with the wrong person and end up 6ft under and the govt will overreact.
Trigger happy miscreant
Geez
In hindsight, maybe empowering thugs across the country to become an American Gestapo might not have been so wise.
@why-gestapo-shaped.bsky.social
We need an army of Luigi’s to take care of ICE
you have to be the change you want to see in the world
47's evil, racist Gestapo is getting more and more daring and brazen each and every week. 😡
They are not agents. They are terrorists. Fascist terrorists.
Biggest difference between pre-war Germany with their Brown Shirts and now is this: we can record the bastards as they commit all these crimes. And there will be no defense of "following orders" when the crimes are this blatant and this well-documented. Don't let a single fascist escape justice.
Fascists. We must rise up and defeat them.
Two words Apple airtags
You can get shot for taking a photo, extreme
Hey! You gotta egg these people (I know they are expensive) Save your dog shit and throw it at them. It’s nonviolent and it’ll make the officers want to leave and change
greatest moment of his life getting to pose like that
Power drunk
Gestapo with poor impulse control. What could go wrong?
Fuck ICE. What a bunch of power drunk assholes
Get their names and let the whole world know, who they are. No tolerance for the intolerant.
IDK, this gestapo shit is way over the line, but someone crouching and approaching a Leo's car below the rear window is a recipe for disaster in any regime.
I forgot the most important caveat. Unless you're Axel Foley.
"glare guards" on license plates are still illegal right?
Inching closer to a fatal confrontation.
Someone will get killed
I hope someone got his face while his mask was down.
