The US occupies an utterly unique position among the OECD countries, when it comes to the domestic use of state violence. However, it's striking that #police in Canada's police, with their record of racism and colonial enforcement, comfortably takes the second spot.

This is a revealing development since it puts the lie to the claim, "All you need to do is comply and you'll be fine." But the father *did* comply, and he was still attacked.
So knock it off with this shit, "Just obey the ICE agents and you'll be all right." They will violently assault you, anyway.

Gentleman on the scene who talked to this Dad said that he asked ICE officers if he could vacate his family and they said that's fine. He loaded up the car and as soon as he put it in drive, they lit the car up with flashbangs and tear gas. The 6mo old stopped breathing and EMS had to be sent in
