The most recent incident was caught on video by Cruz Berrios on her cellphone. During the two-minute ordeal, which begins with the mother and daughter in a parked car, it shows ICE agents trying to convince Berrios to get out of the car.

After they didn’t, a masked man shamed her car window, unlocked the door, and removed the mother from the vehicle. “I’m not going to give you the order, it’s in the car,” the officer said just before the mother was taken from the car. “No!” the daughter screamed.

When you understand 2nd ammendment was a law to oppress marginalized population by the majority who were able to afford it, you begin to understand it has always achieved its purpose. Like "freedom of speech" is mostly used to be racist.

The amendment was a compromise so we didn't need a Federal Standing Army in 1792. All the bullshit came with specific laws.
