It was a crazy scene outside a Charlotte, North Carolina, courthouse on Thursday. That’s where an illegal alien had the brilliant idea to try to evade ICE agents by jumping into a pond. Silly illegal, ICE floats in water!
Have a look. (WATCH)

We enjoyed this one too much!
The illegal alien ran across the lawn of the courthouse before hitting the pond. Commenters are wondering why he thought water would make a difference. Maybe a Rio Grande flashback?
Because you know..... ICE agents just melt in water! What type of strategy was this? 😆

What a weird act to take. Did the illegal think the ICE agents would melt when the touched the water? 🤣🤣🤣😏

‘I’m melting, melting. Ohhhhh, what a world, what a world!’
Posters say the pond plan wasn’t what it was quacked up to be.
Man thought the ducks were going to save him in that pond. Ducks weren’t there to rescue him. 😂

Where was he planning on swimming to exactly? How far does he think the duck pond goes? 🤣

That was a strait up Waterboy style tackle. Being as it was done in a duck pond I'd say it was the appropriate method.

Oh, that was pretty awesome!
Many commenters say ICE agents must love being free to do their jobs again.
Haha, go get um tiger.🐅 love ICE and I bet they loved being able to do their job now!

They seem stoked to be able to actually BE cops again.

ICE performing excellent on the liquid form.

This is what I voted for!
We did, too!
One poster says this video should serve as a warning to other would-be aquatic evaders.
Publicizing videos like this is productive because people who are not entitled to stay in the country will realize that they should self deport and control their own destiny so to speak.

👉🏽Because the alternative is not fun
He should have took the free plane ticket and the $1000 and went home
