Amid report after report of increasingly aggressive tactics used by federal immigration enforcement, a pair of Portland medical workers say that an agent threatened to shoot them as they tried to transport an injured protester last week.
According to publicly archived dispatch records reported by Willamette Week, an ambulance crew was attempting to transport a protester with a broken or dislocated collarbone from an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in southern Portland on October 5.
The facility has been a flashpoint in recent weeks as the site of several small but persistent protests, which the Trump administration has attempted to characterize as violent provocations by “antifa” in order to justify its deployment of military troops.
There isn’t a song called “fuck emergency health care”
I’d love to tap dance on homies face in some cleets, punk fucks
I would think a reasonable person would judge it to be a defensive shooting if an armed, masked man was shot dead while attempting to prevent aid to a victim being transported to a hospital.
