An 8-year-old Haitian boy is in federal custody after showing up for a scheduled immigration appointment earlier this week.

The incident was documented on video Wednesday by Karen Pohl, a volunteer immigration court observer with the group Detention Resistance. She said she’s never seen someone that young being detained before.

“It was just — I couldn't believe what I was seeing because I had never watched a child by himself get detained in that manner,” Pohl said.

They're just a bunch of knuckle-dragging, mouth-breathers, incapable of rational thought, filled with ignorance, bigotry and hatred. They are the product of a Republican world where their mothers couldn't get the abortions they needed, so instead they were raised in very bad circumstances with a very poor education, probably brought up on religion instead, no real proper guidance or positive influence, probably impoverished, probably by parents who were brought up in similar circumstances, who were also unfit parents to perpetuate the Republican dream - bigoted, uneducated and completely controllable supporters, aka "tools".

One thing that I find really interesting here is that most of these people aren't even white. A high percentage of these ICE agents, especially in the southern border states, have a high rate of being Latino, who follow other Latinos who spew their bigotry, ignorance and hatred towards their own people: Enrique Torrio, Nick Fuentes, etc. To use their own words against them, those don't sound like very American names.

    they originally make useful cannon fodder for the police and military, but recently they are too dumb even for the latter.

    its by design they arnt hiring mostly white people, im pretty sure the white people they are hiring is kept out of sight(so white people arnt percieved ICE as a white's only ) so they get the wrath of the public on them, instead to keep the target on POCs as race traitors instead. i saw a post mentioning this on a sub once.
