Mass. woman speaks out after video shows lCE agents smashing car window to get husband
New Bedford Mayor Jon Mitchell said in a statement that “ICE appears to have broken from its long-standing practice of alerting our police department ahead of planned operations."
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.

Isn’t this exactly the thing that the 500 million guns in the US was supposed to stop?
Anyone from 101st Keyboard Militia wanna chime in?
There really isn't a good option there. Someone with a gun goes to protect these people in the car. Ice calls in back up/police or just guns down the shooter, label a terrorist, double down on their claims these people were in fact threats and get the insurrection act passed on Sunday do to media outlets using fear mongering against people who want the constitution upheld.
A single person or a group of 5 even with guns can't do anything to help singular people against an army. Also the right has pushed for years, "they don't care about you so why should you care about them". Many conservatives have been divided intentionally. Taught to not help anyone but themselves, or maybe their family, but they will choose themselves over family most times.
Those 1-5 people would have more of an effect not fighting the random ice officer on the street but doing other things, most of which require coordination and cooperation without any means of large scale communication.
So, in other words, these 500 million civilian owned guns are completely useless in actually doing what the 2A claims that they are for?
These people aren't organized. There's no plan or leadership. Sadly, they're not going to get off their recliner until things effect them personally. Right now, most 2A types unfortunately don't care that brown people are being trampled. Most of them don't even know anything is happening at all. When things get bad enough (for them personally), they'll take action. The question is, will it be too late by then?
So it’s just a bunch of individuals with guns instead of a “well-regulated militia”?
Pretty much, yeah. I'm sure there are some groups out there LARP'ing as soldiers but I'm not counting on them to actually do anything. I would love to be proven wrong but my expectations are currently pretty low.
Yarp. The 2A calls for the right to form a militia. If one tried to do so right now I very much believe they would be labeled a terrorist organization and the executive branch would ignore the courts ruling it was their right. Might even be the U.S. born populous that he's asking El Salvador to open more cells for
