Nurul Amin Shah Alam crossed oceans to flee unimaginable violence, only to die here -- where he should have been safe. The cruelty is endless.

Those CBP monsters may as well have dropped off the blind man in a busy six-lane highway.

"Hey old man, you're free!"

If my soldiers did this to a detainee that we released, they would be court-martialed.

No humanity, compassion, or empathy for their fellow man.

It's called "murder."
Remember, Yale Law's most prideful DEI grad says the regime's thugs get "absolute immunity,"

This is what an out of control unaccountable junta looks like.

No compassion or shred of decency.

ICE needs to be destroyed because it's clear that Pamnesia or Krusty will not hold them accountable for their actions.

I can't imagine the fear that poor man felt.

Blind,no English,nowhere to keep warm.

What "crime" was he Accused of?

Worst of the Worst?

I hate what Trump is Revealing about our Country.

The Depth of it's Nihlism and Malice..

Is there proof he wasn't dead before they tossed his corpse out into the streets?

Hi Clownshack

The Buffalo PD and forensics examiners are looking at that.

They probably beat him to death before realizing his identification identified him as blind.
