A woman who’s a U.S. citizen needed medical help Thursday, Jan. 29, after federal agents pulled her from her car after demanding to see her “papers,” one of the state’s largest unions said Saturday.
...
At around 11 a.m. Thursday, Maria was driving alone to take care of a rent payment and buy a cake for her grandson when she noticed she was being followed for several blocks by an unmarked vehicle that did not have a license plate, SEIU’s statement said.
Maria had been driving around northeast Salem, according to Latinos Unidos Siempre on social media.
The vehicle pulled in front of her and stopped, while another parked behind her. Three men and a woman exited the vehicles wearing vests saying “police,” and one “banged on her window, demanding that she show them “papers.” SEIU said.
“When Maria did not immediately respond, the agents shattered her car window, forcibly removed her from the vehicle and threw her to the ground, causing numerous injuries,” the statement said.
As she was on the ground, the agents dumped out her purse, found her U.S. passport and left the scene, according to SEIU.
That is a classic Kavanaugh Stop: Jerk up a nonwhite person, abuse thm a bit and then depart.
Meanwhile, ICE harassed a woman whose only offense was observing them. They jumped out of their rental SUV in a move that resembled a carjacking and then grabbed her, when she was only exercising her Constitutional rights. If you look at the video in the story, you will see that one of those pseudo-cops steps in front of her car, presumably to try and get justification to murder another American citizen.
To quote one of the commenters here:
When you recruit for brutality, and your pool of recruits are all the cops that are one step from being tossed out of their police force by a review board, and your push to increase your forces causes you to lower your standards and rush the pre employment investigation, can you expect any different outcome?
Add in telling your officers that they are unaccountable for their actions and letting them hide their faces and wear no identifying marks or numbers and this is what you get.
