No reasonable law enforcement agency would ever fire a hail of bullets into a car that presents no safety threat … with a five-year-old in the backseat. We need an independent investigation. We need Oscar to be released from custody immediately. And we need ICE to get the hell out of our city.

There also must be an independent investigation, led by the NYS Attorney General, to ensure accountability for this shooting. I’m also calling for a thorough review of NYPD actions yesterday. It is the job of the NYPD to preserve safety and peace, not to facilitate ICE detentions and deportations.

Belgal was not presenting a safety risk to anyone at the time. It was ICE officers who created all the danger and lawlessness. It was ICE who carelessly and needlessly unleashed a hail of bullets that could easily have killed a 5-year old.

“School administrators and librarians have found it impossible to confidently interpret the labels “profane” and “indecent” — part of the new, lower bar for what makes a book bannable in Texas. As a result, some districts have placed restrictions on anything written for adults, including classics.”
