Last week, top ICE officials ordered officers to increase arrests and to get “creative” in their methods, including trying to nab people the officers happen to encounter in what are known as “collateral arrests.” The orders come in the wake of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller setting a quota of 3,000 immigration arrests per day, along with a sharp rise in protests against the crackdown.

In Westbury, the HSI agents didn’t respond to the gathered crowd. After a few minutes, the agents drove away. A commotion erupted down the road, off-camera, and onlookers began rushing toward the corner.

One of the Nissans, carrying two of the HSI agents, had crashed into a black pickup truck that happened to be passing through the intersection. Three eyewitnesses told The Intercept that the agents’ car had sped away. Two of the witnesses believe the Nissan blew a stop sign, causing the crash. (Nassau County police referred questions about the accident to ICE, which did not respond to an inquiry.)

No place for fascism in NY!

As somebody from Western NY, this made me happy to read

Is the pickup truck ok?

[–] Gammelfisch@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

My neck and back would hurt. I thought the NKVD/RSHA clowns were all about AmeriKa First, at least drive an Amerikan built vehicle.

[–] Emerald@lemmy.world 15 points 3 hours ago

Not suprising, they already did a hit and run on a cyclist and pedestrian in LA.

[–] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

I’m thinking that if ICE et al keeps this up, pretty soon random people are gonna start taking sneaky potshots at them. Amongst many, many other things, these dipshits are actively making their own jobs wildly more dangerous.

[–] Odelay42@lemmy.world -5 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

That would bring the military into our communities even quicker. Seems like a very bad idea.

[–] BendingHawk@lemmy.world 8 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

The only bad idea is sitting back and just complaining online.

[–] Odelay42@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Sniping ICE agents would make things much worse much more quickly.

Maybe the progression of violence is inevitable, but once you start killing pigs, it will all happen very quickly.

[–] BendingHawk@lemmy.world 5 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

The progression of violence has been enacted by the government for decades... Sitting around waiting is just letting them put on the cuffs before fighting back. https://lemmy.world/post/31339564

[–] Odelay42@lemmy.world -3 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Look man, I am a protesting, pro-physical intervention, pro-whatever it takes leftist. All I’m saying is random people shooting at ICE is going to end protest and resistance, and begin the part where the government shoots and kills protestors and resistance on sight.

If you think that’s the best plan, that’s fine. I do not. I think there is more that needs to happen before the shooting starts.

I own many guns. I practice with them. I have thousands of rounds of ammunition. When the government starts shooting people, I will decide if I’m ready to die to protect my family and community.

But I’m not gonna kill myself and dozens of others by foolishly “taking a pot shot” at these fucking nazis.

[–] BendingHawk@lemmy.world 6 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (1 children)

When the government starts shooting people??? 🤦What caliber is required for it to count as shooting? Ballistic missile???

Once again this is nothing new, been only getting worse my entire life.

Enjoy the fascists they'll only keep winning with folks like this so proud of themselves.

[–] Odelay42@lemmy.world 0 points 1 hour ago

Alright man. Stay safe out there.

[–] 2ugly2live@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I'm surprised they aren't just knocking in doors at this point. How terrifying.

[–] y0kai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 hour ago

They start that in the wrong areas and being scared of getting hit but watterbottles and rocks will be the least of their worries.

[–] HelluvaKick@lemmy.world 12 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

She gave them an arrest quota of 3,000 a day. Jesus christ

[–] Zenith@lemm.ee 5 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago) (1 children)

Steven Miller is apparently having screaming meltdowns about how more and more and more “immigrants” must be arrested/deported. Miller is likely the person who is actually our acting president right now with Trump as a chaotic front to keep people distracted from this.

[–] barneypiccolo@lemm.ee 5 points 2 hours ago

Stephen "PeeWee Himmler" Miller has far too much power. He is HitlerPig's Wormtail, whispering poison in his ear. He's hidden in the shadows for far too long like the creepy lizard he is. It's time to focus on him, assign his atrocities to him, and start attacking him. He needs to be run out of the administration and the government.

[–] Broken_Orange_Juice@lemmy.world 7 points 3 hours ago

"Ice agent feld from angry residents outside new york school" is so funny. I want to shake one of hte residents hands.

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 19 points 5 hours ago

Hoping no real people were injured.

[–] hornedfiend@sopuli.xyz 24 points 7 hours ago

Kristi Noem is a sorry excuse for a human being and that’s putting it nicely.

[–] xeekei@lemmy.zip 50 points 8 hours ago (3 children)

ICE really does seem like the new SS. As a European it's scary as fuck to watch the world's most powerful state turn fascist.

[–] barneypiccolo@lemm.ee 8 points 2 hours ago

Try being an American citizen with a history degree. I know where this leads, and I'm terrified.

[–] Cosmonauticus@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I was always facist if you weren't white or straight

[–] Siethron@lemmy.world 9 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I really hope that's a typo

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 1 points 40 minutes ago

Masks just being ripped off left and right!

[–] 4grams@awful.systems 24 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

As an American, the scariest part is how little most seem to care about it. Well, that and the fascism.

[–] modus@lemmy.world 12 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

"That could never happen here!" — Most Americans.

[–] Shayeta@feddit.org 11 points 4 hours ago

"It might be happening here, but its only happening to the bad guys!"

[–] Buske@lemmy.world 40 points 14 hours ago

Sooo Federal officers get to flee scenes, guess insurance doesn't matter anymore.

[–] masterofn001@lemmy.ca 60 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Can't spell bitches without ICE.

I watched most of the video clip. The agents all look kinda perplexed. As if they can’t understand that nearly any species alive will go nuts when you go for their offspring.

Guys, I think ICE agents are aliens.

[–] Mirshe@lemmy.world 25 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

I think it's a case of psychopathy and the fact that some of these people TRULY don't see black and brown people as people. The dehumanization is truly complete to the point that they really don't understand that they're PEOPLE, with thoughts and feelings.

[–] RedPostItNote@lemmy.world 8 points 3 hours ago

Psychopaths understand people a lot better than these ice agents. These are garden variety sociopaths at best
