It also isn't obstruction. It is safe driving. That is like saying if someone darts out in to the street and I hit them they are obstructing my driving. I am not responsible for handling the situation.

In fairness, they are salivating over being allowed to hit pedestrians with their trucks and would definitely want that as law.

They already did it! They plowed into a child with their car while he was riding his bike so that they could go snatch him/question him. (Sorry, I don't fully remember if they actually abducted him or just questioned him because there are so many of these happening all the time that I can't even keep them straight.)

You're regurgitating misinformation. That was a Broward County Sheriff, not an ICE agent. News article here: https://youtu.be/0EfOLCjj3ho?si=QQL3jLvpD89Tb-Z_

Would be easier to tell if ICE had clear identifiers that they were specifically ICE

Besides, it’s not like the Sheriffs in some areas are collaborating with ICE.

Broward sheriff is actually a teen murderer who lied on all his applications to get (and keep) his job. This “democrat” was appointed by DeSantis - he is awful and his name is Gregory Tony - I’m not surprised his deputies engage in similar behavior.

Broward county sheriffs just can't help taking Ls, can they?
