Oh my god, that must have been so traumatizing for that poor kid. One of my kids is 5. Fuck ICE, and Trump.
PTSD created in a 5-year old. A lifetime of flashbacks is in their future.
Can you imagine the nightmares?
My kids have the safest most protected fucking lives, and my oldest at 7 is still scared of the dark.
Imagine if someone came up to our car and fuckin SHOT ME SEVERAL TIMES, freaking unloaded into me?!? The TRAUMA.
This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.
This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.
Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery. Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.
Abolish ICE.

We shouldn't just abolish ICE, we should hunt them down one by one and end each individual agent.
When there's no justice, folks will create their own
We are well past the abolish part. Prison is the compromise
My only (so default biggest) issue with Mamdani is he kept Jess Tisch:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jessica_Tisch
She's the nepo daughter of the Lowes CEO which somehow was good enough to become NYPD commissioner under Eric Addams.
If there was ever a reason to keep her, it's getting NYPD to arrest ICE. If that doesn't happen here, I can't think of a valid reason to keep her over someone willing to do reforms.
Yeah that's totally fair. My only slight defense is that maybe Mamdani thinks he'd end up losing that fight because NYPD is a completely crazy and heavily armed organization with all sorts of ability to cause absolute chaos in the city, and I do think that's what they'd try to do if Mamdani was coming for them.
But even then I think that's a mistake. Appeasing violent bullies is no way to live.
If that doesn’t happen here, I can’t think of a valid reason to keep her over someone willing to do reforms.
Politically this is gift to Mamdani that she holds the position:
I had to re-read that. "DHS shoots man with" is a bad setup.
It's a garden path headline https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garden-path_sentence
How did they manage to shoot that man with a five-year-old? Did they use a trebuchet?! Also, is there an abundance of children or why are they using them as projectiles?
There's a video of it out now. They literally swarm the car while shooting at it as if it were a carjacking. Then a "construction worker" with an AR-15 shows up
