Friday, January 16, 2026

The father of three children who were hospitalized in Minneapolis on Wednesday night accused federal agents of launching flash-bang munitions and tear gas into their family van after they were caught up in protests against the Trump administration's deadly immigration crackdown. "Officers threw flash bangs and tear gas in my car. I got six kids in the car," Shawn Jackson told KMSP. "My 6-month-old can't even breathe." The explosions were strong enough to trigger the car's airbags. Shawn Jackson told KMSP while holding up his child's car seat: "This was flipped over. My car filled with tear gas; I'm trying to pull my kids from the car."Destiny Jackson said she performed CPR on the infant after the baby stopped breathing and lost consciousness.Three of the children"the 6-month-old infant and two others, ages 7 and 11 years"were taken by ambulance to a local hospital for treatment.

This is how I've imagined the first ICE agent getting killed: after attacking someone's kids.

In other words, because a parent obeyed natural law and defended his children.

MadBomber can't understand why people protest ICE flash-banging a baby.

No Republican can understand why people protest ICE flash-banging a baby.

Republicans say "Well, it's their fault for bringing their kids into a battle". en.wikipedia.org
