Mayor Jacob Frey has been doing several press conferences to address the ICE-involved shooting of a mother and poet who, according to NPR, was just sitting in her car after making a wrong turn and losing her way, finding herself blocking ICE vehicles from getting past and laying on the horn for three minutes. Never mind that she was a trained ICE Watch "warrior."
First, Fry dropped the F-bomb on ICE, demanding the ICE "get the f**k out of Minneapolis." He's being rewarded by having a thousand more ICE agents deployed to the city.
Frey wants people to just look at the video from all angles, but not the video taken by the ICE agent who was nearly run down by the "warrior" in her SUV. Frey claims that the agent "walked away with a hip injury that he might as well have gotten from closing a refrigerator door" and then adds, paradoxically, that "he was not injured."
The key part of that statement, even though he doesn't realize it, is that the ICE agent walked away, alive.
Jacob Frey: “The ICE agent walked away with a hip injury that he might as well have gotten from closing a refrigerator door with his hips. He was not injured. Give me a break. No, he was not ran over. He walked out of there with a hop in his step.” pic.twitter.com/57eTaCurtg

So… he was hit?

Bro really compared getting hit by a car to closing the fridge with your hip.

“She only hit him with her car a little bit!” 🙄

Jacob Frey is offering himself as a crash test dummy for how much injury one can incur from getting hit by a Honda Pilot

This guy is so fake I can’t stand it

So if the agent was run over and suffered life changing injuries, or lost his life, that would make it OK?

Frey needs to go away.
I don’t know anyone with a hip injury from closing the refrigerator door.

He 100% closes the refrigerator door with his hips

That probably sounded smarter in his native Somali.

So if I only hit someone with my car a little bit, I'm all good?

The agent wasn't injured — he just suffered a minor hip injury and walked away with a hop in his step, even.
And if he had been run down, Frey would be defending the ICE Watch warrior because ICE is in his city in the first place.
