Cruelty is their MO. Welcome to the Gestapo.

As the Stanford Prison Experiment shows - good people can become evil ...but evil shits probably just enjoying the freedom now.

“Given that this incident wasn’t reported as an excessive use of force — despite the alleged assault occurring while the immigrant was in shackles — what does that say about the likelihood of other assaults falling through the cracks?”

ICE’s official policy is to fully restrain all migrants on domestic and international ICE Air flights, with an exception for people who are pregnant or post-delivery.

ziembavision.bsky.social•5 days ago

Neither ICE nor the contractor staffing the guards on the flight reported the incident as a use of force.

@tomcartwright.bsky.social argues this lack of transparency by ICE is “a pattern and a practice.”

So we are paying ICE, the flight crews, and contract guards to then pay 300 mil a year to El Salvador to inprison them. Barring all the other issues with these mass deportations, how is this possibly ending the "immigrant burden on taxpayers?"

manbrownjr.bsky.social•4 days ago

It's not. It's not about taxpayers it's about being cruel to people who aren't white because they don't want them here. Soon and very they will be the minority and they fear what they have done to people will be done to them.

redheadedtraveler.bsky.social•4 days ago

There's a meme somewhere that says something like "Why are white people afraid of becoming a minority? Is the US not good to minorities or something?"

Very valid.

redheadedtraveler.bsky.social•4 days ago

Oh, I know, I just meant that's what they campaigned on, that our tax dollars were supporting illegal immigrants, and now they really are.

Not long before these ICE scum start wearing their SS and/or swastika armbands. My Dad and maternal granddad fought the Nazis to out a stop to this!

Is it surprising that when these individuals are intentionally dehumanized by the Trump White House that they are treated as less than human?

islgrl.bsky.social•4 days ago

Hmmmm, where have we seen that before? Oh yeah, all through the history of Homo sapiens.

heartsonycgr.bsky.social•5 days ago

ICE needs to be abolished.

Even without the Nazi symbol, this man is evil personified.

Gestapo. They are Gestapo

In the LEO hierarchy they are “lower” than prison “screws”. Sick law infliction indeed.

What a travesty .
A criminal was struggling against his restraints and had to be subdued .
Oh , the humanity ...........

ziembavision.bsky.social•4 days ago

1) immigration violations are civil offenses, not criminal. 2) he was walking to the bathroom, and was allegedly shoved then hit repeatedly while he was down.

maxwelltomato.bsky.social•4 days ago

Oh well , don't come here illegally or do stuff detrimental to the USA on a visa , and you won't have that problem at all.

Simple.

islgrl.bsky.social•4 days ago

And your point is?

clutch22.bsky.social•4 days ago

Who are these private companies taking people out of this country? How much is it costing the taxpayers?

ziembavision.bsky.social•4 days ago

@theguardian.com published an investigation recently with more information about the contractor that staffed the guards on this flight if you’re curious to learn more.

When everything is said and done, ICE should be stripped of all authority and prosecuted. They are the footmen of an evil administration.
