Arrests by masked federal immigration agents continued in Charlotte after a weekend sweep in which authorities said they detained a total of at least 130 people in North Carolina’s largest city, as protests picked up. ICE is here in Raleigh, too, much to residents’ displeasure. The only reason ICE is invading Democratic cities is to instill fear while normalizing a militarized-type presence. Raleigh is considered one of the safest large cities. But here we are with a president who suggests otherwise, while crime has declined across the United States.
ICE agents in Charlotte, North Carolina, reportedly chased a flower shop owner into the woods, but bystanders weren’t taking their shit, and shamed them, and blew whistles to drive the agents away. Mission accomplished! There is no word as to whether the ICE agents are still in the woods, and it’s a bit chilly this morning. Bummer.
MAGA isn’t taking it well. One social media user on the Bad App writes, “They all have their phones out. Subpoena the phone records of whoever posted the TikTok and likewise others with their phones out, and then have the US Marshals arrest them for interference with law enforcement.”
Another Red Hat called the bystanders “liberal terrorists.” Well, they were armed with whistles. Very scary stuff.
