Shocking footage shows a man believed to be a corrections officer driving into a group of anti-ICE protesters who were sitting outside a detention facility in Rhode Island. The protesters were sitting on the pavement to block staff from parking at Donald W. Wyatt Detention Facility, which works with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), when a black pickup truck barreled towards them. At around 10 pm on Wednesday night, a black pickup truck drove slowly up to a group of roughly 40-50 protesters blocking the entrance to the location's parking lot.

The driver then went straight through crowd as people scream in the background and jump onto the back of the vehicle in an attempt to stop it.

Corrections officers subsequently came running outside and asked people to back away from the vehicle.

They then began pepper spraying protesters including a reporter with WLNE. A spokesman for Never Again Action told DailyMail.com that five people taken to the hospital, two with injuries related to the truck and three who were treated for the effects of pepper spray.

The spokesman added: ' The driver called for backup on a handheld walkie talkie and was wearing the Captain’s version of the uniform the other guards were wearing, and he was driving to the employee parking lot.'

Rhode Island Governor expressed her 'outrage' that a peaceful protest against immigration policies at the Wyatt Detention Center was interrupted and people were hurt.

She said she had contacted the State Police Commander and both were committed to a 'full investigation' of the events.

She said: 'I share the outrage Rhode Islanders are feeling about the incident depicted in the video at the Wyatt Detention Center.

'Our state and our nation were built on the idea that everyone has a right to express their opinion publicly and peacefully.'

'President Trump’s immigration policies are immoral, and these Rhode Islanders were exercising their constitutional right to protest,' the governor added. James Diossa, the Mayor of Rhode Island said he spoke to Attorney General Peter Neronha and Colonel James M. Manni who will conduct an investigation into the incident.

He tweeted: 'Their orgs will join the CFPD in investigating last night’s disturbing incident between Wyatt staff and protesters outside of the Wyatt Detention Facility. I appreciate their collaboration in ensuring a transparent investigation.'

Other protesters are heard shouting: 'The whole world is watching,' a phrase which was widely used during the 1968 Democratic convention in Chicago when police attacked Vietnam War protesters.

A woman can also be heard saying: 'I got pepper sprayed, please help me.' Never Again Action, a Jewish protest group with organized the demonstration, posted the footage with the caption: 'Here is HD video of an ICE guard driving his truck into us as we sat peacefully blocking the Wyatt Detention Center.' However WLNE reported that the driver was a corrections officer from the center and appeared to be uniformed and had a badge.

In an earlier Tweet at the time of the incident, the group claimed: 'Oh my god. An ICE Detention Center guard just drove their truck straight through a line of us sitting peacefully to block the parking lot.

'There don’t appear to be major injuries, still assessing the situation, police are moving in *on us* now.'

There were roughly 400 protesters present from the group, which likens undocumented immigrants being imprisoned to the treatment of Jews during the Holocaust.

The group has been organizing protests outside ICE detention centers since the end of July.

'It's just unbelievable. It was just absolutely unbelievable,' said protester Jerry Belair, who was hit by the truck. 'This guy just charged and tried to injure people purposely.'

Amy Anthony, a spokesman for Never Again Action, a Jewish activist group that planned the protest, told The Washington Post: 'It was terrifying because we didn’t know what exactly his intention was.

'It certainly appeared he was trying to hit us.'

US Immigration and Customers Enforcement have not yet responded to DailyMail.com for a comment, while attempts to reach the Wyatt Detention Facility were unsuccessful.

The confrontation comes amid a series of protests calling on Immigration and Customs Enforcement to bring a halt to their raids on undocumented migrants. Around 100 people were arrested on Saturday during an anti-ICE protest in Manhattan which closed down part of the West Side Highway and caused traffic gridlock.

Many protesters sat on the street as they linked one another and held placards reading 'Abolish ICE' and 'Close the camps.'

ICE is largely the body which removes illegal immigrants during deportations, while CBP carry out arrests at the border.

Last month, protesters went to a migrant detention center in Colorado and took down the state's flag and the U.S. flag before hoisting up a Mexican flag and a defaced Blue Lives Matter flag in their place.

Last month U.S. authorities launched small-scale operations seeking to arrest undocumented immigrants in an apparent start to President Donald Trump's vow to launch mass deportation round-ups across the United States.

The operation was expected to target hundreds of recently arrived families in about 10 cities who had been ordered deported by an immigration judge.

The removal operations are meant to deter a surge in Central American families fleeing poverty and gang violence in their home countries, with many seeking asylum in the United States.

'We are doing targeted enforcement actions against specific individuals who have had their day in immigration court and have been ordered removed by an immigration judge,' Acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Director Matt Albence told Fox News when asked for an update.

Immigration rights activists have said that in many cases immigrants do not receive proper notice of their court dates.

Loved the video ( at source.) Shame they didn't pepper spray everyone in the drive way.

They're call driveways for a reason. Not sitways.

Q: What is an illegal protest?

ACLU answer: Demonstrators who engage in civil disobedience – defined as non-violent unlawful action as a form of protest – are not protected under the First Amendment. ... A protest that blocks vehicular or pedestrian traffic is illegal without a permit.

Q: DO WE HAVE AN UNFETTERED RIGHT TO PROTEST ON GOVERNMENT PROPERTY?

Short answer at FREEDOM FORUM INSTITUTE: No. ... government must be able to carry on its own speech and expression [and business] free from interference.

ACLU answer: [Only] as long as you are not blocking access to the government building or interfering with other purposes the property was designed for.

Q: Can government flag properties be stolen from centers of government, damaged and replaced with a foreign flag as a form of peaceful protest?

My answer: No. Those are crimes of trespassing, theft, destruction of property and non-peaceful actions of assembly. The unauthorized flying of a foreign flag at a government facility signifies an aggressive, invasive act of war conquest.


Police investigate after US flag removed during protest | NEWS10 ABC | Jul 14, 2019

DENVER (AP) — Police say they will be reviewing any available video to help them identify protesters who trespassed and pulled down the American flag in front of an immigration detention center in suburban Denver, tried to burn it and replaced it with a Mexican flag.
>
Cristian Solano-Cordova, a spokesman for the Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition, told The Denver Post that those who pulled down the flags weren’t affiliated with mainstream immigrants’ rights groups but had coordinated with them to be there.

Claudia Castillo, a 22-year military intelligence major in the U.S. Army and the coalition’s legal services coordinator, said she pleaded with the group of about 25 that pulling down the flag wasn’t part of the plan. She said that rather than pull back, members of the group spit on her, shoved her, and cursed at her. [i.e. possible assault charges]
>
A GEO spokesman [for the center run by the GEO Group] did provide a statement which said that, contrary to other immigration facilities that have gotten attention recently, its centers have never been overcrowded or used to hold children.


4um Title: Obama Built The ‘Cages’ for Illegals, Not Trump, Says Obama ICE Chief | Published: Jun 27, 2019

It was only a few months ago that Democrats were dismissing the crisis at the border as manufactured by Trump, and now they’re comparing migrant detention centers to concentration camps and blaming Trump for “putting kids in cages.”

But for those still trying to blame President Trump, Barack Obama’s former ICE chief, Thomas Homan, has a reality check for them. Speaking at a conference hosted by the Center for Immigration Studies, Homan explained that the “cages” Democrats are blaming on Trump were the product of the Obama administration:

“I’ve been to that facility, where they talk about cages. That facility was built under President Obama under (Homeland Security) Secretary Jeh Johnson. I was there because I was there when it was built,” said Thomas Homan, who was Obama’s executive associate director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement for nearly four years. ... ‘The kids are being housed in the same facility built under the Obama administration.’ If you want to call them cages, call them cages. But if the left wants to call them cages and the Democrats want to call them cages then they have to accept the fact that they were built and funded in FY 2015.”

Homan explained that the fencing that separates kids from adults is done for safety reasons.

There is your "act of conquest". Now what is the solution?

Of course the civil authorities take precedence at this point in time. ;)

That would be better than taking the case to an International Court like the Hague. I couldn't find a video with a Miranda Rights reading that had Mariachi background-music as well as foreign subtitles, so the police can just inform them of their Miranda Rights in English, Spanish or sign language.

Probably, they should also be advised that any movements indicating "Yes" or "No" can be used against them.
