Juan Carlos Lopez-Gomez, a 20-year-old U.S. citizen, was being held in the Leon County Jail Thursday, charged with illegally entering Florida as an “unauthorized alien” — even as a supporter waved his U.S. birth certificate in court.
The man, who was arrested Wednesday after a traffic stop in which he was a passenger on his way to his job in Tallahassee, is set to remain in jail for the next 48 hours, waiting for federal immigration officials to pick him up, even though Leon County authorities dropped his first-degree misdemeanor charge.
His mother, Sebastiana Gomez-Perez, burst into tears at the sight of her son, who appeared virtually for his first hearing at the Leon County Courthouse. She left the courtroom distraught because she could do nothing to help her son, who was born and lives in Grady County, Georgia.
“I wanted to tell them, ‘Where are you going to take him? He is from here,’” his mother told the Phoenix in Spanish moments after exiting the courtroom. “I felt immense helplessness because I couldn’t do anything, and I am desperate to get my son out of there.”
That’s a great way to get shot by pros trained to do so.
An actual gunfight is gonna be way more terrifying than the armchair army thinks.
Getting shot vs. being deported to a death camp…
Someone forgot to turn their brain on today.
You’re right. Everyone should lie down and die. So noble
That’s why it needs to be a collective effort from the community. If the whole neighborhood came out brandishing arms I bet cowardly ICE would leave without a shot being fired
While you’re at it, bend over so you can offer up your ass.
ICE comes banging on your door, you shoot, plain and simple. Aim to kill. Pump action shot guns with slugs will get the most bang for your buck.
Get a doorbell camera, so you can see where any of them are, and shoot through the door. These chucklefucks are not trained. When they feel threatened, they just mag dump aimlessly. They’re softer than baby shit, and are as easy to shoot.
