This black man, who was racially profiled by ICE in a gas station in Minneapolis today, would not have walked away if it weren’t for brave Americans who stood up for him and for those whose deaths have brought ICE’s savagery to the epicenter of national attention.

ICE prevented a doctor from providing care to the victim.
They were not in fear for their lives.
They are refusing to give up the ID of the agent.
They are not going to allow anyone to receive punishment.
They think they can kill you and anyone else and it doesn't matter because they are above you.

ICE murdered a woman in Minneapolis and immediately turned around and blamed her for her own murder. Nobody is going to be punished for this and our neighbors are being rounded up into camps already.
You do not hate the modern Gestapo enough. Pride is and always will be a fucking riot, y'all.
