8. No need to wait for a lawsuit
Sat Aug 30, 2025, 11:31 AM
Aug 30

Cops know a lot of harassment techniques, and they can be used on ICE:
Stop the vehicles, for suspicious activity, and possible drug transportation
Stop for speeding. Or going to slow, failure to use turn signal, no fully stopping at a light, etc. Busted tail light ..
Improper Vehicle registration and tag - if not legit, then tow it.
Demand full ID of the ICE agents, and take photos, run for warrants, etc.
Show firearm registration. (no proof, the gun gets confiscated)
Like wise for Taser and gas.
Impersonating a law officer.

And on and on...
