The most recent incident was caught on video by Cruz Berrios on her cellphone. During the two-minute ordeal, which begins with the mother and daughter in a parked car, it shows ICE agents trying to convince Berrios to get out of the car.

After they didn’t, a masked man shamed her car window, unlocked the door, and removed the mother from the vehicle. “I’m not going to give you the order, it’s in the car,” the officer said just before the mother was taken from the car. “No!” the daughter screamed.

Got to yelling at my fascist, MAGA neighbor. He came stomping down the street to kick my ass, I went in and grabbed my .45, stayed in. No threats were exchanged, no one saw a weapon.

This fucker calls the police! I cannot imagine what he thought he had to report or gain. Refused to talk to them, "Well, if you won't tell me your side of the story I can go get a warrant and arrest you for disturbing the peace." So, they threatened to arrest me on a trumped up (heh) charge for using my 5th Amendment right to stay silent, all because someone made a phone call. Gee! Can I do that to anyone?!

3 squad SUVs, 4 pigs, for some yelling. These filthy pigs roll up dressed head-to-toe in solid black paramilitary gear, real Hugo Boss SS shit. And this ACAB wants to come off as reasonable Officer Friendly?! BTW, these aren't big city cops, just a redneck suburb to a small city.

Been screaming for years now, we're not falling to fascism, we're there.

EDIT: Credit where it's due. They all appeared to be wearing body cams. The red LED was the only color on their uniform or gear. Asked the sheriff a few years back on FB WTF they don't wear cams. No answer.
