ICE Is Citing SUBURBAN MOMS Who 'Protest and Document' ICE Activity

We didn't realize that suburban moms were a protected class, but reportedly, ICE is after them, too. ICE agents followed a suburban mom back to her suburban house after she had spent her afternoon interfering with federal law enforcement operations.

ICE is arresting and charging suburban moms who protest or document ICE activity with felonies that carry up to 20 years in prison.https://t.co/yI3k03mvfA

Somehow, we think there's more to it than just that post. Reuters reports in a story headlined, "ICE is cracking down on people who follow them in their cars":

Becky Ringstrom was heading home after following federal immigration officers in her gray Kia SUV in suburban Minneapolis when she was suddenly boxed in by unmarked vehicles. At least a half-dozen masked agents jumped out to arrest her, one knocking on her windshield with a metal object as if threatening to use it to break her window.
After the arrest, captured on bystander video verified by Reuters, the 42-year-old mother of seven later said she was transported to Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building in Minneapolis where an officer gave her a citation charging her under a federal law that criminalizes impeding law enforcement. The official said her name and photo would be added to a government database.
…
Ringstrom had watched federal immigration officers for about 45 minutes as they sat in a parked car in her neighborhood on Thursday, January 29. When they started to move, she decided to follow along in her SUV, keeping a distance of multiple car lengths behind, she said.
At a roundabout, a Border Patrol agent approached her car and said, "Last time I'm going to warn you," according to video Ringstrom recorded on her phone.
The officers went right at a stop sign and she went left, she said. Several minutes later as she started to head back toward her house, multiple vehicles with federal officers stopped and arrested her, she said.
"I know what I'm doing is not wrong," Ringstrom said later in an interview with Reuters.
Still, she said she was terrified when federal officers approached her car. “There was a moment where I thought I could be Renee Good," she said, referring to one of the two U.S. citizen protesters fatally shot by federal immigration officers in Minneapolis in January.
After her arrest, she was issued a citation, reviewed by Reuters, which said the court date was “TBD” - to be determined.

Good news is that the charges will be dropped if there’s no merit. If there is merit, then it shouldn’t matter if they’re suburban moms unless you think [mostly] white women should get special treatment. That would be super racist, though, so that’s probably not what you meant.

That is a shame. Maybe the moms should be more concerned about staying home and raising their kids.

Why is a suburban mother following around federal agents engaged in lawful immigration enforcement?

Are you able to comprehend how batshit this behavior is?

I'm sure you cried a river for all those grannies that were thrown in prison after protesting at abortion clinics.

What’s your point? Obstruction is a crime regardless of who does it

Nobody is going to go to prison for 20 years for this.

But people are breaking the law. And that comes with consequences.

She's not going to jail.

Good... why are those suburban moms protecting rapists, murderers, drug dealers and child traffickers? Are they worried the will need to either pay a decent wage or clean their own toilets if they can't hire cheap illegals.

Suburban mom gets a citation. That's the story. It's not even a story.
