    son says

    There is video of them punching him multiple times in the head after taking him down to the ground. Acting like we only have the son’s word for the fact that this was a violent arrest injuries is crazy journalistic cowardice.

      crazy journalistic cowardice

      That’s all we’ve been seeing since the first time Ajent Ornj was in office.

      And now that they know he has no problem arresting journalists who he doesn’t like, it’s even worse.

      All the people in charge who could do something about it are showing they are excellent at two things: placating the masses, and kissing a dictators ass.

      Too many normal people are just barely making it by and don’t want to lose what little they have by taking a stand, especially when they might be standing alone.

      You need money for lawsuits, and Democrats are too busy funding septuagenarians running for office to pay for this shit

        Don’t lawyers advertise “We don’t get paid unless you do”? You’d think they’d jump at open and shut cases like these.

          That’s only for personal injury cases, where they mainly go after insurance companies. They don’t go after cops (or even “cops” like these ICE fellas) that have qualified immunity and government resources backing them up. This case isn’t as open-and-shut as it should be.

      You don’t even know who to sue thanks to the masks, they will charge him with assault afterwards and Tricia McLaughlin will lie again about as soon as she opens her mouth

    “Resisting arrest places those being arrested, the agents, and the community at risk.”

    But masked men who don’t identify themselves properly aren’t arresting you, they’re kidnapping you until they prove otherwise.
