Immigration And Customs Enforcement

Last week’s deadly shooting at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Dallas is the latest in a disturbing pattern of politically charged violence. From the 2017 attack on a congressional baseball game to recent assassination attempts, experts warn of escalating rhetoric fueling real-world harm.

A man shot at a Dallas ICE facility last week has died, according to family. Miguel Ángel García-Hernández is the second detainee killed in the attack.

The shooter is also dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement characterized the shooting as a political attack against law enforcement, though no ICE agents were injured in the shooting.

Kyle Police said the devices have helped officers solve crimes, while opponents say there is too much government surveillance for a city of 66,000 people.

The arrested individuals were charged with attempted murder, discharging a firearm during a violent act, obstruction of justice and conspiracy.

The county doesn’t have authority to make federal agencies, including Immigration and Customs Enforcement, comply with the resolution. But local activists say the resolution is meant to remind everyone that immigrants have rights in the U.S.

Saturday's event at the Capitol remained peaceful. The Texas Department of Public Safety made one arrest earlier in the day related to threats against state lawmakers who were expected to speak.

Many residents without legal status are staying away from anti-ICE protests because they don't feel safe. More demonstrations are planned for the weekend.

Troops have already been deployed to Los Angeles and San Antonio. Nationwide protests are planned for Saturday.

While protests in Houston, San Antonio and Dallas remained mostly peaceful, tensions flared in Austin on Monday evening.
