What would you do if ICE agents approached the kids on your youth sports team at practice?
Youman Wilder, the founder of Harlem Baseball Hitting Academy, said that he found himself in that exact position. And he didn’t hesitate.
“I heard them saying, ‘Where are you from? Where are your parents from?’” Wilder told MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace. “And I just stepped in and said this is very inappropriate to ask these kids anything … I’m just going to have them implement their Fifth Amendment right, and not say anything to you.’”
Considering that there is a $1,500 bounty per head, it is no surprise that ICE traffickers are sniffing around schools and playgrounds. Probably explains why the local kindergarten got a reinforced fence in the last several months.
Considering that they’re republicans, it’s no surprise that they’re sniffing around schools and playgrounds.
Republicans be like
Remember when strangers approaching children and initiating inappropriate conversations with them would be the ones getting arrested, not doing the arrests?
Pepperidge Farm would remember but half its workforce was snatched up and the rest are in hiding.
Indistinguishable from some random masked dudes driving unmarked vans up to a group of kids, with the intention of kidnapping some of them? Sheeeesh. There has to be some serious nation wide lead poisoning over there.
In the article an ICE spokesperson is quoting as saying there has been no recent activity in that area. So ICE is literally saying that these people claiming to be ICE were in fact random masked dudes.
They’re probably lying about it, both because they know it looks bad to be fucking with kids and because being unsuccessful makes them look worse in their eyes.
And eventually, someone’s gonna shoot one of these totally-not-actually-ICE agents.
Schrodinger’s Ice
Nope, just white suppremecy and nationalism. But with government cutting safety regulations, the lead poisoning will come. Source: I live in this shithole :/
If ICE only arrests criminals and armed violent gang members, where are all the shootouts and injured/dead ICE agents?
Would love to see more of the last bit
I want a liveleak video. With a chainsaw.
Finally positive male role models for boys
I love everything I read. The success he’s had with kids too. What an incredible role model. This guy bleeds America and what it’s supposed to be.
“I just said to myself, ‘I’m willing to die to make sure you get home.” He even doubled down on his statement, saying, “I’m willing to die today.”
Wilder wants to make it clear that the kids who play baseball with him are upstanding kids with bright futures, not victims. In fact, 45 of his players have been drafted to the Major League.
What an amazing contrast of an American vs whatever the fuck ICE is.
The funniest part was at the start…
He said that one of the agents responded, “Oh, another YouTube lawyer.”
Oh, the irony. Even people that have never set foot on US soil know what the fifth amendment of the US constitution is. Apparently a prerequisite of being an ICE agent is knowing nothing about and being in direct opposition of America’s most basic foundations.
Where’s all the patriots at to exercise the second amendment?
whatever the fuck ICE is.
The word is “nazi”.
In future history books, it’ll be read with all the same context as the SS.
Future history books? Hell, that’s how I’m reading it right now.
Depends on who writes them.
Gestapo would be even more accurate
They’re too busy cheering on the Nazis.
Where’s all the patriots at
Not in NY, with the most restrictive gun laws in the union. Notice ICE is only pulling this shit where they’re the only ones armed? Funny that.
No, they do it in the Midwest too. Which is why farmers and food producers (many of whom probably voted Trump) are complaining that their workers are being taken away. Tough people. Salt of the earth. Gods country. Where are their guns???
Tough people. Salt of the earth.
um, texas much?
Guns are patriotism now?
Only if you use them to oppose a tyrannical government.
And not a single NRA member has shown up. Bunch of pussy as bitches.
Oh a bunch of them have shown up, they’re just wearing the masks and doing the handcuffing.
We keeping America safe by… Arresting kids?
No no, they’ll happily tell you they’re literally using the kids as bait. You arrest the kid (who usually is a US citizen), the kid gets a phonecall with their parents, you arrest the immigrant parent(s) when they show up to say “what the fuck why did you drag my kid off”. Depending on how lazy the ICE agent is, you might deport the kid with the parent (the parent has to request this IIRC), or place them in foster care (with admittedly no way to reunite them). If the kid isn’t a US citizen, you don’t even need to deport them to the same country as their parents, put them on the same flight, or ANYTHING.
Is this something communities could counter by having citizens partnered to immigrant organizations making the inquiry into the child’s arrest?
The orphan crushing machine demands more orphans.
These little brown kids will turn into brown adults and that is fucking terrifying to americans.

Haha jokes on them I’m a brown adult, what now? Oh, gulag anyway, welp…
Keeping America scared
Terrorized.
I’ve been pretty fortunate to not run into the new Gestapo. Or maybe they’re fortunate to not run into me.
Only time will tell.
