Jacelynn Guzman said she is a U.S.-born citizen. The Department of Homeland Security said Friday that it “determined the individual in question was not the target.”
Masked immigration authorities were recorded on video this week following a woman back to her Louisiana home during what the Department of Homeland Security is calling a “targeted immigration enforcement operation.”
Jacelynn Guzman, 23, was walking home Thursday from a corner store in Marrero, a New Orleans suburb, when a silver, unmarked SUV pulled up next to her and two masked agents exited, she said.
“I was walking and the first car pulled up on the side of me and I thought it was an Uber,” she said. “They said, ‘Wait don’t run, Ma’am.’ That’s all I heard before I blasted off,” Guzman told NBC News on Saturday.
Guzman said she repeatedly told the agents she’s a U.S. citizen.
That is a very interesting statistic. I’ve always thought that some qualities were distributed across populations regardless of race, income, etc. Do you have a source for the 30% stat?
The classic source for the research is The Authoritarians by Bob Altemeyer. Full text available here from the author: https://theauthoritarians.org/
He studied authoritarian attitudes and other related behaviors for decades. The book came out on the heels of the end of the George W. Bush presidency. He absolutely called the future of the Republican party / Conservative movement we have today as it morphs into a full on fascist administration.
Very highly recommended reading, designed for more laypeople then pure researchers, and is spot on for the situation we’re in.
