THIS IS WHAT PURE COURAGE LOOKS LIKE.
DOOR DASH SPANISH SPEAKING WOMAN RAN INTO HER HOUSE.
POLICE REFUSED TO COME.
TOLD HER TO GIVE UP DRIVER.
SHE DECIDED FUCK THAT NOISE.
Fuck, my eyes are watering.
Been watching too much shit lately.
She gave the fuckers a free civics lesson.
I promise if you take the time this will be the most inspiring thing you'll see since this shit started.

(24,881 posts)hand her over. Imagine the fear. A young couple trying to help... trying to do the right thing and they are terrorized. What would any of us have done if we were that couple? Glad to see this video showing up everywhere. Saw it on Bluesky too.

Edit: Okay, I finished it. I watched past the part where they almost hand her over and I just wanted to puke.
Holy crap. This is how you handle this stuff. We need to be loud and pissed off and defend these people.
Fin ICE. I hate them. Her comment about him doing this because his wife wouldnt um, well,
🤣

(28,542 posts)In the end she told them to get the fuck off her property, and that they were on stolen land.
Justice matters.

orangecrush
(28,542 posts)I didn't quite hear it but I think the fucker actually had the balls to ask if she was a U.S. citizen because she wasn't white, and that was all it took.
AllyCat
(18,539 posts)And asking them to put the guns away. Camera jumping all over the place so maybe it was her going out to meet the SS?
I stopped watching at that point. Couldnt imagine how terrifying this was for all of them.
Ill go back and watch to the end when I can.
orangecrush
(28,542 posts)It's being scared to death and still doing the right thing.
AllyCat
(18,539 posts)They were leading her up the stairs crying and opened the door and I dont think I would have done that. So I stopped watching.

Just my take.
Amazing courage.

(114,398 posts)Those guys are recruited from the worst of the worst and are not vetted and are poorly trained. They have been recruited as an army of occupation, convinced their fellow citizens are forming some sort of insurgency determined to replace lily white WASPs with brown skinned people.
These guys didn't need much convincing, they've heard the date 2032 as the date of the Great Replacement, when WASPs will no longer be a majority, since the day they were born. Plus, they're too stupid to challenge the idea that pale skin will suddenly disappear altogether 6 years from now.
I can see our local police being as useless but maybe for a different reason. First, this is a sanctuary city, meaning they can't offer any assistance to ICE or the border patrol (something they're actually good with). Second, they won't interfere with these groups, preferring to let the courts figure out the legal niceties surrounding jurisdiction. It's just going to take the courts a fucking long time to do this, allowing the Gestapo to run amok in the meantime.

(5,252 posts)I wonder if there will someday there will be a memorial dedicated to the US citizens who stood up to trump's goons? Like what Israel does for non-Jews who risked their lives to protect Jewish neighbors.

If so, this couple deserves that honor.

(4,243 posts)we should have a discussion about the level of resistance that is needed to defend ourselves against ICE, i.e., pepper spray, tasers, fire extinguishers. These are non-lethal.
If it was a man (not ICE) that was threatening me with harm I would respond and it wouldn't be with words, and it would be considered self-defense under the law. Why are we applying a double standard to ICE and this regime by letting them assault us without consequence???

(1,325 posts)In many situations, I believe that I would automatically respond to them like any other unidentified man trying verbally and/or physically assault me.

(1,378 posts)I can shoot someone, and expect immunity?
I can kidnap someone, and not be prosecuted?
I can break-out car windows, and not be arrested?
I can tackle people inside of courthouse?
I can go to a town-hall meeting and push people out the door?
I can grab someones phone, while theyre sitting in their car?

(4,413 posts)I didn't catch where this was in the video, but a quick search for immigrant support hotlines turned up this page that has a lot of resources to call in many places...
"National Network for Immigrant and Refugee Rights"
- report raids in your area
- seek help if being detained or at risk of being deported
- report missing migrants
We will update these as new numbers become available. If you know any that are not listed, please send us an email with subject hotline details to: nnirr@nnirr.org
