“What if I would have been armed,” she said. “You’re breaking in. What am I supposed to think? My initial thought was we were being robbed—that my daughters, being females, were being kidnapped. You have guns pointed in our faces. Can you just reprogram yourself and see us as humans, as women? A little bit of mercy. Care a little bit about your fellow human, about your fellow citizen, fellow resident. We bleed too. We work. We bleed just like anybody else bleeds. We’re scared. You could see our faces that we were terrified. What makes you so much more worthier of your peace? What makes you so much more worthier of protecting your children? What makes you so much more worthy of your citizenship? What makes you more worthy of safety? Of being given the right that they took from me to protect my daughters?”
This is the most important part of the article, in my eyes. These are the questions they should be asking ICE and Trump and the paper mache base, covered with flags but empty on the inside.
She said she has no idea who to contact to get her things back.
Marissa told KFOR the U.S. Marshal’s Service and the FBI were involved in this raid.
However, a representative for the U.S. Marshal’s Service says their team was not involved.
News 4 reached out to the FBI. Last week, a spokesperson said they were assisting on this case and directed inquiries to Homeland Security.
Late Tuesday, the FBI told KFOR they were not on the scene. They instructed KFOR to contact Homeland Security, and we did.
A spokesperson for Homeland Security told News 4 they are looking into it and will get back to us, but we have not heard from them.
There is literally no way to even confirm these aren’t random thieves and thugs. But even if they aren’t, I guarantee entrepreneurial-minded thieves and thugs know they can do the same now.
This is why we have uniforms and badges and laws preventing non-police from wearing those things. Not that that prevented excess, but it at least confirmed who you could sue if your rights were violated. The fact that these ICE thugs think for a second they can enter homes or arrest people wearing balaclavas and no clear identification is absurd and alone deeply dystopian.
funny how no one seems to know who those goons were or who to ask about it, but in a different situation, if those chickenshit scumbags were to, um… “go missing” during a bullshit warrantless raid – better believe you’d see their department head on tv the next day listing their names, ranks, “in the line of duty” etc etc

But they found Luigi in no time, with wrong eyebrows
once again gut instinct is right!
