ICE-Gestapo shot a man in NYC with his 5 year old son in the back seat, then they rammed through protesters who were trying to block their vehicle from leaving the scene. I’ll say it again and again, ICE aren’t agents or law enforcement, they are terrorists, murderers and white supremacists.

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.

This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.

Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.

Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.

Abolish ICE.

This televised execution thing is really horrifying. And probably the best we can hope for is for no one to watch and make it a total ratings failure. Trump is doing murder porn for attention, and he should not succeed at that. If people watch, he'll do it again.
