Filming ICE is an act of journalism. Cell phone footage is vital source material for reporters who can’t be everywhere at once.
Shooting, killing and other targeting of those documenting news is an attack on press freedom and all else that's good in the world.

Walz criticized the narrative put out by the federal government about the shooting.
“Thank God we have video,” Walz said. “Because according to DHS, these seven heroic guys took an onslaught of a battalion against them, or something.”
