Federal immigration agents seeking to detain a Honduran landscaper chased him into a Southern California surgical center and quickly found themselves in a tense standoff as clinic staff demanded to see identification and a warrant.
In a video clip of the Tuesday altercation that has spread on social media, Ontario Advanced Surgery Center staff in blue scrubs are heard telling an armed U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent wearing a mask and bulletproof vest to let go of the man, who is crying and gasping for breath.
“Get your hands off of him. You don’t even have a warrant,” says one staff member, shielding the man from an immigration agent. “Let him go. You need to get out.”
Everywhere. Even if they have warrants. Seriously. These are Nazis and should be treated as such. Do not let them kidnap people. Shame them until there are enough numbers on your side to fight back.
If you don’t know the victims name. Learn it and keep repeating it. Yell “they are trying to kidnap <name>!”. It humanizes them further against a masked person that won’t identify themselves. It can help attract people around to help.
And it has to be you. Everyone else is in “freeze” mode as they don’t know what’s going on. You do. You know. You gotta be the one to start resistance. But you won’t be alone long.
Fuck these Nazis.
