Now DHS is lying about scary immigrants with weed whackers
While Los Angeles and the surrounding cities in southern California continue to be besieged by raids on ice, violent prisoners and demonstrations, a case arouses exceptional anger and indignation in the region.
Narciso Barranco was doing his landscaping work outside an IHOP restaurant on Saturday in the highly Latin city of Santa Ana when seven masked agents jumped unmarked vehicles and approached him. A video of his resulting arrest has become viral because the men are clearly shown by beating Rodriguez and striking him in the head while he is on the ground.
The KTLA local information station described with precision the attackers as “masked men with American border patrol vests”, a nod to a generalized criticism of the agents’ refusal to identify themselves while they kidnap the brown of the streets without a mandate or cause them and throw them into unmarked vehicles.
And the truth hurts, as evidenced by the defensive response of the Ministry of Internal Security to the last controversial meeting.
“He assaulted the federal police forces with a weeding striker,” said an official DHS position on Monday. “Perhaps the consumer media would like our officers to stand there and be mowed instead of defending themselves? What completely inclined representation of what really happened.”
The Pleurnichard position was accompanied by an additional video of the detention of Rodriguez, who showed a frantic man trying to flee several armed men and peppery gas while holding a working tool. Curiously, the video did not have a sound, which makes it impossible to determine if the weeds backer even worked. In the background, a masked man can be seen pointing a firearm on a passing car, which illustrates only the chaos and the terror that these unleashed “agents” are unleashed on innocent people whose only crime is “illegal”.

It is not surprising that DHS repels the resulting tumult which sparked more protests in Santa Ana: it turns out that Rodriguez is the father of three American navies, including two in active service.
“I feel betrayed,” former navy Alejandro Barranco told Orange County Register. “My father has no criminal history. He was doing nothing wrong. He worked. The way they (federal agents) attacked him, I don’t think it’s just.”
Alejandro Barranco, who served in Afghanistan, told the register that his father had no criminal history and was asking for parole, which can grant undocumented family members of military permission to stay in the United States for an indefinite period.
The veteran told the community newspaper The Santanero that his father had been able to call him from a Los Angeles detention center and “humbly asked him to” finish the work he was doing when he was detained “. “”
Democratic legislators, whose representatives, Mike Levin and Lou Correa, denounced the action and called for the end of the raids and blind detentions.
“It’s just a madness,” Correa said in the register. “Do you have a family of three children who have sworn for the country, ready to give their lives to this country, and their parents cannot stay here?”
DHS pursues a model of lies on his actions during raids and prisoners. Officials lied to agents trying to bring the Dodger Stadium car park and also lied when they said that New York Brad Lander controller was arrested for having assaulted ice agents while escorting immigrants in a courthouse.
They also lied and said that Senator Alex Padilla of California was abused and detained for not having announced his identity when he tried to ask a question at a press conference held by the secretary of the DHS, Kristi Noem, when the video of the incident included a clear audio of Padilla.

The community has rallied around the Barranco family, donating a gofundme to cover legal expenses And continue to organize noisy demonstrations outside the Hotels of the Comté d’Orange housing ice agents and border patrol officers while they are in town to do their dirty job. But the obstinate refusal of the Racist Trump administration to admit any reprehensible act, as shown in their tireless persecution of the wrong ban, the man of Maryland, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, means that the possible freedom of Narciso Barranco is far from being guaranteed.
