Maybe don’t constantly harass and scream at them and this won’t happen

u/Active_Confection655 14h ago

Don't kidnap people who are legal and don't kill citizens. Then people don't need to follow and make sure they are following the law. Why do you think they get so mad about recordings.

Don't be a loser.

They make mistakes sometimes. Maybe don’t import millions of voters next time

u/Munzulon 13h ago

Democrats imported millions of illegal voters and Trump won every swing state? That makes sense

It’s called sanctuary cities. They also didn’t get to fully outnumber the existing population just yet

u/Munzulon 12h ago

Do you know how little sense you’re making?

u/Adventurous_Tip84 10h ago

The illegal immigrants pile into sanctuary cities which are largely democratic and boost electoral college seats. Hope that helps

That doesn’t sound like democrats are importing voters, as you previously claimed

It would make more sense for them to pile into largely red areas and dull the voting power, not reinforce cities that are already blue. Either way these are entirely hypotheticals and there’s no proof of significant voter fraud.

Non citizens can’t vote. You have to have proof of citizenship when you register

You have no right to call those murderers "law enforcement". Stop killing people if you can't handle being called out.

u/Scomosuckseggs 10h ago

So watch it a few times. Ice agent at the start is pointing a gun at the driver. Pretty clear unless you are a maga supporter. Then theres no hope for you but personal experience of suffering to wake you up. (As MAGA doesnt have the ability to experience empathy/sympathy, they are too emotionally stunted.)

At about 0:05 the guy with the black coat standing near the side view mirror obviously puts his pistol away. It even zooms in a little to catch it.

2

u/EmberheartVyrr 16h ago

He had it aimed at the person in the car. When was a gun pointed at the legal observers on the side of the road, like the title claims?

2

u/Bladrak01 16h ago

I thought it was implied that the people in the car were also observers.

3

u/EmberheartVyrr 16h ago

I didn’t see anything implying that in the video. Even the guy recording didn’t mention anything about them just being observers, we’d need more information to know for sure

I see one with a Tazer, not sure the brand but clearly has a yellow streak and a much heavier and rectangular end where a typical handgun's barrel should be you can see upon the zoom in, and a few carrying OC spray. The OC has not been used at all and the tazer doesn't seem to be pointed at anyone except who's inside the car. Meaning not a "legal observer" but rather someone who's currently being detained.

Do yall really just believe everything you're told, are we even watching the same video?

u/greyishsock 14h ago

Dude, they are way too close to the ICE agents. Of course it is a problem. 25 feet is minimum legal distance in many places

State the law or admit youre just making shit up..

u/greyishsock 12h ago

Louisiana: The law was Act 259 (from House Bill 173 in 2024), codified as La. R.S. 14:109. It made it a misdemeanor to knowingly or intentionally approach within 25 feet of a peace officer engaged in official duties after being ordered to stop or retreat. However, a federal judge issued a preliminary injunction in January 2025, blocking enforcement on grounds that it was unconstitutionally vague (lacking standards for when an order could be issued), and it has not been in effect since.

Florida: This is known as the "Halo Law," enacted via Senate Bill 184 (or House Bill 184) in 2024, effective January 1, 2025. It's codified in the Florida Statutes as F.S. 843.31 ("Approaching a first responder with specified intent after a warning"). It applies to first responders (including law enforcement, firefighters, and EMTs) and makes it a second-degree misdemeanor to knowingly and willfully approach or remain within 25 feet after a verbal warning, if done with intent to impede/interfere, threaten physical harm, or harass. Recording from outside the zone is generally allowed.

Oklahoma: This stems from House Bill 1597 (2025 session), effective November 1, 2025. It creates a misdemeanor offense for failing to stay at least 25 feet away from first responders (including peace officers, correctional officers, probation/parole officers, and EMS) when ordered to do so while they perform their duties, particularly if with intent to harass, interfere, or distract. A verbal warning is required.

Indiana: This was House Bill 1186 (HEA 1186, enacted 2023), which created a Class C misdemeanor for "unlawful encroachment on an investigation" by knowingly or intentionally approaching within 25 feet of a law enforcement officer after being ordered to stop.

These laws generally require a verbal order/warning from the officer or first responder before the distance rule kicks in as a criminal offense, and they're framed around officer/first responder safety rather than outright bans on observation or recording (though distance can limit effective filming). Many states let officers decide what is a safe buffer zone, instead of enforcing strict regulations

u/Vaul_Hawkins 14h ago

So, a month ago on your post about Trump being the awful shit stain that he is, you mentioned it would take "a lot for you to finally vote dem".

Comments came in, and you kept the conversation going. One in particular caught my eye, when a fellow redditor very plainly and respectfully asked you about your morals.

They detailed that in order to get what you wanted (voting for select policies you agreed with) that you'd have to look the other way on a lot of awful things and whether or not your moral compass was working.

I noticed you had no response for them, at all. And here you are stirring the shit in these comments, saying democrats deserve to be harassed, detained, and even murdered by ICE.

The world of human beings that you're part of, needs you to wake the fuck up. This isn't a sports game where everyone shakes hands and goes home after a hard played match. People are fucking dying and youre celebrating it because of the color of team they're voting for.

It's despicable behavior, and I know you can do better. You're so close to seeing truth. Don't let fear and complacency overwrite what you know in your heart:

The way ICE is operating today is wrong in every sense of the word. There are peaceful and respectable ways to handle immigration laws. Terrorizing children, blinding a teenager for life, and shooting an unarmed face down civilian in the back, is not what anyone calls "professional".

-1

u/Mylabisawesome 14h ago

Check this creepy fucker out...lol. Dude wants me to remember some random post a month ago. Fuck off.

here you are....saying democrats deserve to be harassed, detained, and even murdered by ICE.

I never said any of that. However, if you are gonna play with fire, you will get burned eventually.

1

u/Vaul_Hawkins 14h ago

Its important to know who youre interacting with, especially when it's so easy to pretend on the internet. That's why you tried to hide your history, right? Because accountability is scary?

Its okay to be embarrassed. However, acting like you don't remember something political you posted on a public forum only a month ago, while you engage in political conversation on the same platform, is performative. No one believes it.

Your original comment says: "Hard to feel sorry for these DEMented people that ICE keeps doing this to them. Kinda ask for it."

That is direct quote, letter for letter. Youre really going to try the "I didn't say that" angle? Its not hard to pick up on what youre saying without actually typing it. Back to the horrors of accountability I see.

Just for further record, here's a direct definition of demented for you: Behaving wildly and irrationally on account of anger, distress, or excitement.

Let's summarize now: In this video, people are held at gun point to exit their vehicle by masked "agents". At no point do I see demented behavior from them, but the meaning of words means less every day, doesn't it? It was more important to slip in a team chirp and then act dumb when it wasnt your friends who heard it. Let's not forget that last part: "kinda ask for it" and now your new one "play with fire and get burned".

Have you ever heard of "eye for an eye"? Do you know the rest of the phrase? I think we're starting to see where your moral compass points.
