Key excerpts:

The family had been staying with a relative in Los Angeles for the previous seven months after crossing the border legally for a court appointment through the now-defunct CBP One App to seek asylum in October of last year. They had been granted parole status in the U.S. while they waited for their day in immigration court.

"They were crying in fear. One of the agents at one point lifted up his shirt, which displayed the gun that he was carrying," Mukherjee said. "The 6-year-old boy was terrified to see the gun. He urinated on himself and wet all his clothing. No one offered him a change of clothing for many hours."

The 6-year-old boy has been diagnosed with leukemia and has missed a medical appointment to be treated for worsening symptoms

The Texas Civil Rights Project says the family has been placed in expedited removal, which allows for rapid deportation without a court hearing. The family's attorneys fear they could be deported before their lawsuit is heard.

I do not care the reason, if you have scared a 6 year old so bad he’s pissed himself, then you are indeed the “baddie”…

No child should suffer this kind of trauma at the hand of an adult. And if they do, than that adult responsible needs the ever lovin’ shit beat out of them. Period. End of sentence.

[–] lka1988@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 hour ago

Problem is those "adults" (in name only) hide their cowardess behind firearms.

[–] Eddbopkins@lemmy.world 6 points 8 hours ago

trump administration is afraid of sickly children. something like this doesn't happen by mistake. it takes people a specific group of evil scum bag people to do something like this.

[–] jaggedrobotpubes@lemmy.world 19 points 11 hours ago

Individual names.

[–] knighthawk0811@lemmy.world 96 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

the fact that ICE is targeting anyone at immigration court tells us all exactly how hateful they and this admin is. these are people who are literally going through the legal system of immigration. they are not the same criminals that are publicly being talked about by the administration.

ice is specifically targeting good people because it's easy to get the list. using courts, using IRS fillings, profiling on the streets.

they are lazy. ice is purposefully not doing the work of finding and stopping real criminals. they are doing everything they can to avoid criminals. they are cowards, lazy cowards who only pretend to love this country but really they love the feeling they get when their boot is on someone's neck.

[–] Freshparsnip@lemm.ee 14 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Wasn't it less than a year ago Republicans were saying they were okay with immigration, they just want people to go through the legal process

[–] ZoopZeZoop@lemmy.world 11 points 8 hours ago

We all knew that was a lie for most of them. They just didn't have the power or public support. It's not that they have more support now, but the support is way more public.

[–] RedditIsDeddit@lemmy.world 8 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

That's cuz real criminals will fight back.

[–] Blumpkinhead@lemmy.world 5 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Never thought I'd be rooting for the criminals.

[–] RedditIsDeddit@lemmy.world 5 points 7 hours ago

yeah I mean you're not seeing ICE showing up in the gangland or anything, they're picking on easy targets cuz they're cowards

[–] cuteness@sh.itjust.works 16 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Perhaps DOGE should be installed at ICE and lay off all these pieces of shit instead of making it harder for people to get the benefits they already paid for.

There seems to be a ton of fraud waste and abuse going on at ICE.

[–] Blumpkinhead@lemmy.world 4 points 8 hours ago

~~lay~~ off

[–] SirMaple__@lemmy.ca 24 points 13 hours ago

ICE is a bunch of scumbags.

[–] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 164 points 17 hours ago (5 children)

how long are these fucking nazis going to be allowed to run rampant? because if it wasn't clear before, then it 100% is now, that it was NEVER about "rapists and murderers" or even "illegals"

[–] breecher@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 hour ago

For as long as there is a nazi regime. And it is only going to get worse as soon as they have normalised this current level, which seems to be well under way.

[–] RedditIsDeddit@lemmy.world 7 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

If I was a brown person, I'd be carrying some kind of self defense weapon any time I was out of the house.

[–] lka1988@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 hour ago

As a white person, it is taking a surprisingly large amount of energy to not go dig out our 9mm in my FIL's gun safe and shoot these cowardly assholes on sight.

These are real people that are being directly affected by the heinous acts of ICE; and I fear they won't stop unless they have something to fear themselves.

[–] dinren@discuss.online 81 points 17 hours ago (13 children)

Pretty sure they will keep on doing this until we start doing it to them and their families. More effort needs to be taken to identify them and humiliate them.

[–] orionsbelt@midwest.social 51 points 16 hours ago (3 children)

spread the word:

A Responsible List

The ICE List is a public, open-source effort to document the people responsible for enforcing deportation, separating families, and carrying out immigration raids in the United States.

[–] CorruptCheesecake@lemmy.world 15 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) (1 children)

The first person that popped up when I clicked it was a freed Jan 6th rioter. Fucking disgusting. This awful administration is a disgrace filled with traitors and cowards.

This is not the list we NEED though. Forbes already compiled most of that list.

agreed. not enough people are talking about how these fucking cowards can't even show their faces. while being a hired goon for the party trying to make it illegal for protesters to wear masks. fuck these people

[–] RedditIsDeddit@lemmy.world 3 points 10 hours ago

If they can't show their face, they aren't police imo.

This is posted on (dot) world, which is basically reddit but slightly left of center.

In other words, mods will remove anything that maybe might be construed in a way that messes with the status quo of the rich and polititicians stomping their boot down on those they deem below them.

Whether mods agree with my phrasing or not, that's what's happening. I'm sure they'd prefer to frame it as "making sure our community doesn't get taken down by The Man"

[–] dinren@discuss.online 10 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah they keep using that line about being taken down, even though there has never been a lemmy instance taken down. We can also point out .ml as an example of shit not being taken down even though it’s quite literally calling for death of millions of people.

I just think .world mods are slightly right of center.

[–] Deceptichum@quokk.au 2 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago) (1 children)

Fucking KiwiFarms has been running for years and years literally causing the death of multiple people. But if we say anything other than RIP on a post about Hitlers death it’s going to get the FBI involved to arrest Jordun or something ridiculous.

.world is peak shitlibism.

[–] dinren@discuss.online 1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

I would like to know more about kiwifarms?

I will say, I got banned from quokk.au for calling for the death of billionaires. 🤷‍♂️

[–] Deceptichum@quokk.au 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

It’s the alt-right hate harassment community. Not a place to ever visit.

No one person has ever been instanced banned from Quokk.au?

[–] dinren@discuss.online 1 points 32 minutes ago (1 children)

Oh… yeah no right-wing for me. It was news@ sorry

[–] Deceptichum@quokk.au 1 points 12 minutes ago* (last edited 12 minutes ago) (1 children)

Oh that’s my sub, I certainly wouldn’t have banned you if that’s all it was and it was directed at billionaires. I hope someone shoots ‘em all.

Might have been one of the other mods? As we swapped to PieFed I can’t go back and see. Either way the ban wouldn’t exist at present due to the move, so you’re welcome to post again.

[–] dinren@discuss.online 1 points 9 minutes ago

I dunno. Some cunt invited me over there saying I wouldn’t get banned for calling for action against rulers but then I got banned for it. I’m guessing it was some twat trying to get people banned. Flying Squid did that a lot before he went insane and killed himself. Joke’s on them cause I got a bot to make 1k alts so I never run out

It ends when a lot of them are dead, or all of us are dead.

[–] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 17 points 17 hours ago (5 children)

i know we're walking the edge of the rules here, but i'm hopeful that when one specific one of them finally fucking croaks (whatever the cause), things might start to turn around, seeing as how all of the rest of them who worship this person hate each others' guts and the flock will disperse

that day, when it comes, will be my own new personal holiday

[–] BeBopaLula@piefed.ca 4 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago) (1 children)

I do not advocate violence In any way shape or form. What I do say is that Thiel and his ilk are the main threat and that rump is just project 25’s little puppet. Thiel and his gang are the real threat and need to be put into the spotlight as soon as possible to get project 2025 dismantled quickly.

I plan to call out Thiel every time I see a post regarding his little orange puppet.

Is this clear enough for you post deleter ? Am I no longer hurting your assumptions of people’s intentions?

Here is a definition of the words removed and dismantled. Please note that nowhere in the description is there mention violence of either of these.

Definition: of removed: “distant in degree of relationship”

Definition of dismantled: “to disconnect the pieces of”

I really, really dislike when someone makes assumptions about whether or not I am a violent person. Shame on you whoever removed my post and I plan to escalate this before this platform becomes worse than Reddit.

Again I do not advocate violence but I do think Thiel and game should be stopped ASAP.

[–] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 2 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

i think there's enough of an understanding between everyone here that it doesn't have to actually be said...

[–] BeBopaLula@piefed.ca 4 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

I do like to play my part, shaking my fist at clouds.

Why do these thugs always strike a pose when there's a camera? Crossing their arms, crossing their legs, leaning back as if they're Clint Eastwood. Fucking cosplayers, all of them.

[–] RedditIsDeddit@lemmy.world 9 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Same thing the Klan does.... oh hmm

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 9 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

Some of those that work forces, are the very same that burn crosses. Huh.

[–] ViatorOmnium@piefed.social 35 points 15 hours ago

Such brave heroes of the nation, who feel the need to intimidate a six‑year‑old leukaemia patient with a gun. /s

Absolutely evil and pathetically coward.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 35 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

I'm disgusted with my country.

[–] HurlingDurling@lemmy.world 11 points 14 hours ago

I'm disgusted and afraid for my safety in my country

[–] imrighthere@lemmy.ca 28 points 16 hours ago

Shithole joke of a country. Holy fucking shit.

I would love to hear from the children of these monsters. I would despise my dad if he was an ice agent. I would say im surprised at how easy these people give up their humanity when given the order to, but I know enough about history to remember that fascism shows us what these guys are capable of when they’re off the leash.
