Fuck ICE

I agree with the sentiment, but I will clarify, people know the names of two of the 9 people not solely because of their skin colour…

But those two were violently murdered on camera in front of a crowd. No footage of the other 7 incidents is publicly available so far from what I’ve checked. Other than Keith Porter, the rest were in ICE custody at the time of murder, so no cameras present to immediately disprove the administration’s bold-faced lies.

See this article for info on 8 of the 9. Latest on the 31 Dec 2025 murder of Keith Porter.

Eight people have died in dealings with ICE so far in 2026. These are their stories

The high-profile killings of Minneapolis residents Alex Pretti and Renee Nicole Good are only two among many

I do think the racial component is way too important to not emphasize it. This is happening nation-wide and, in the USA, 61% of the people is considered white, black people amount for 12% and native, mixed and other Hispanics, which are probably Latinos, are ~10% of the population, yet, these account for ~50% of the murders.

Pretti and Goodman were killed because they opposed to ICE, not because they were brown people, but most were murdered in custody and they were not white.
