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.’”
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.
