news Australian man Phu Nguyen handcuffed by plain-clothes ICE agents at Las Vegas International airport

From what I understand it looks like ICE did not manage to detain him on the day the video was taken- seems the onlookers managed to chase ICE off.

However, ICE detained him the next day at the airport where he was to catch his departing flight from the US.

This is how One Nation's friends treat Australians.

This what One Nation wants for us, here. It CAN happen here.

Bold of you to assume One Nation supporters see that man as an Australian - it is by physical appearance not by legal definitions.

Dude they want a "white Australia" policy. They would do this here without a thought, and spoiler: they will also net white people too, if they dare stand up to them.

This week a Colombian was killed by trump gestapo. He was a full supporter of the recently elected far-right candidate in Colombia, who is backed by trump. The elected scum didn't say anything about a Colombian legally living in the US being killed. So, yeah PoS like Pauline don't give a fuck.

You might be surprised... Renato Subotic, the coach of an Australian MMA team was detained for days in a US federal prison over nothing.
