Marilu Mendez said when ICE vehicles began following her and her husband Monday and then surrounded their car on Tallman Street in New Bedford, she took out her cell phone and started recording.

Her video shows a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforement agent using a large hammer to break the back passenger window of their car.

Marilu said the agents were focused on her husband, Juan, but kept calling him “Antonio”, the name of another man who lives in their building.

Juan Mendez is now being held in a detention facility in Dover, New Hampshire, with a hearing scheduled for May 7.

      Everyone is looking around at everyone else to do something.

      Be the change you want to see.

        Yeah you’re right. I suppose it’s foolish to expect the guys who said they were preparing for government tyranny to do anything when the government starts tyrannizing.

      They are going after brown people. Most Second amendment people are either white racists or other brown people who are trying to pull up the ladder and happy they are going after “bad” brown people.

        They’re also often larpers that like buying toys and playing pretend. True action is foreign to them.
