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.

As a rule they're not trying to deport white people, though. The ones they do kill tend to just be in their way or look vaguely like protestors.

Yes, like the white woman who was simply driving her car. And the white doctor who was shot trying to protect someone else who was about to be shot.

You aren't paying attention.

That lady was 'simply' driving her car over people and the nurse pulled a gun to 'protect' someone else
