A Colombian national is facing up to 20 years in prison after allegedly breaking an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer’s nose during an attempted arrest in Roselle, New Jersey back in February during an enforcement operation.
The 27-year-old man, identified as Hector Villegas-Alvarez, was approached by ICE agents who had determined he was unlawfully present in the United States and subject to deportation.
According to an official statement by the New Jersey Attorney’s Office, Villegas-Alvarez exited his vehicle when ordered to do so but physically resisted arrest, locking his arms and tensing his body when officers attempted to apply handcuffs.
What I am reading is “Undocumented Immigrant manages to escape a lack of due process by simply throwing fists.”
They are going to be thrown in a prison and forgotten about regardless. What’s the threat of a few years of jail for fighting back when they won’t see the light of day if they submit anyway.
May as well go down swinging.
given how many protected, legal residents, and outright citizens ICE has already picked up without care or concern… I would argue ICE determinations are woefully and legally inadequate for any action, and thus violent resistance to abduction is not only the natural, moral reaction… its the legal one.
the correct word is a snout
Good for him, fuck these people. Not so good for him. Is the jail time. But what’s the difference at this point?
So let me get this straight. A dude with no record and a judge order to prevent deportation, who didn’t resist law enforcement during his kidnapping, gets whisked away to a torture prison without pause, but a dude breaks a pig’s nose and gets to remain in the States? What incentive is there NOT to go down with the most violence you can against the abductors? When tRump is finally removed from power, hopefully with a hanging for treason, I hope the next president pardons people like Hector Villegas-Alvarez.
Damn if that’s the punishment for hurting their poor little nosies might as well kill them.
I dont think they realize this but straight up if its life in prison or prison camps no matter what might as well curbstomp anyone trying to kidnap you instead of going peacefully, there is no benefit to peaceful resistance, you’re fucked eitherway
Or they do, and they’ll use it as an excuse to take even more freedom asay
They’ll make any excuse to keep pushing no matter what we do
Resist
They are scared and think that harsh sentences will prevent them from getting their deserved punishments.
Is it an arrest if there’s no due process though? Honest question. What are they arresting him for that would ever see trial? What crime was he even claimed of committing for an arrest?
Because if there’s no trial, then there’s no due process. Andnif there’s no due process, then it’s not an arrest, it’s a kidnapping.
In which case he should be punching those fucks in the face.
Piggies have a weak spot on their noses. Got it.
