Folgendes geschah: Auf Instagram wurde von Dritten ein Sharepic eingestellt, das sich auf einen Buchbeitrag von mir bezieht. Es geht um #RacialProfiling. Ich habe daraufhin in den vergangenen Tagen so massiv dümmste und unreflektierteste Pöbeleien ertragen müssen, dass es schon wehtut. Warum? (1/2)

#Jacksonville , #Florida residents and property tax-payers are about to be on the hook for an enormous #PoliceBrutality lawsuit after Will McNeil Jr. posted video of him being punched and his head slammed onto pavement by #police who stopped him at 4:15 pm for not having headlights on. In the video it is not raining. The police report says seatbelt was not worn, but video shows police unbuckling seatbelt. jaxtoday.org/2025/07/21/civil-

#RacialProfiling is VERY expensive!

Mir liegt seit eben bei meiner Klage gegen die Bundespolizei wegen der rechtswidrigen Fotokopie meines Personalausweises die Klageerwiderung vor. Elf Seiten.
Die Bundespolizei beantragt Klageabweisung. Es handle sich weder um #RacialProfiling noch um eine Amtspflichtverletzung. Man beruft sich auf Verjährung. Trotz des rechtskräftigen Urteils des Verwaltungsgerichts #Dresden, das von "rechtswidrig" spricht, meint die Bundespolizei, dass die Ausweiskopie rechtmäßig gewesen sei. #Rassismus

🚨Lies, gaslighting, disinformation about #immigrants, arrests, #detention facilities & #deportations -all amplified on social media, complicit RW media...

"Oh really? Explain then how Julio Noriega, a US citizen, was arrested & spent 10 hours in #ICE custody before someone even bothered to check his wallet & confirm he was here legally.

Also, explain why none of your PR spin on this issue EVER mentions collateral arrests."

While the SC has already curtailed 4A #rights, what protections remain are esp blurred within the 100-mile border zone.

Blatantly uncon IMM enf practices have become so rampant: fed judges, like Frimpong, have had to swiftly intervene.

Courts must put a stop to these pervasive attempts to eviscerate our CON rights. But what happens if you’re the victim of an uncon search or seizure by fed agents? Suing fed agents successfully is highly unlikely.

MSNBC · ICE detentions are an affront to the Fourth Amendment — Tom Homan doesn't seem to careBy Mike Fox

"WOW. A lawyer says that a FL HWY Patrol agent🚨told her that they're calling Border Patrol to investigate anyone who "appears Hispanic" that they pull over.

That is direct evidence of racial profiling — said over the phone to a lawyer! They aren't even hiding it!"
-A Reichlin-Melnick

"Show me your papers," is the law of the land in FL, & likely in other red states.

"A federal judge on Friday ordered the Trump administration to halt indiscriminate immigration stops and arrests in seven California counties, including Los Angeles.

Immigrant advocacy groups filed the lawsuit last week accusing President Donald Trump’s administration of systematically targeting brown-skinned people in Southern California during its ongoing immigration crackdown. The plaintiffs include three detained immigrants and two U.S. citizens, one of whom was held despite showing agents his identification.

The filing in U.S. District Court asked a judge to block the administration from using what they call unconstitutional tactics in immigration raids. Immigrant advocates accuse immigration officials of detaining someone based on their race, carrying out warrantless arrests, and denying detainees access to legal counsel at a holding facility in downtown LA.

Judge Maame E. Frimpong also issued a separate order barring the federal government from restricting attorney access at a Los Angeles immigration detention facility.

Frimpong issued the emergency orders, which are a temporary measure while the lawsuit proceeds, the day after a hearing during which advocacy groups argued that the government was violating the Fourth and Fifth amendments of the Constitution.

(. . .)

Immigrants and Latino communities across Southern California have been on edge for weeks since the Trump administration stepped up arrests at car washes, Home Depot parking lots, immigration courts and a range of businesses. Tens of thousands of people have participated in rallies in the region over the raids and the subsequent deployment of the National Guard and Marines.

The order also applies to Ventura County, where busloads of workers were detained Thursday while the court hearing was underway after federal agents descended on a cannabis farm, leading to clashes with protesters and multiple injuries.

According to the American Civil Liberties Union, the recent wave of immigration enforcement has been driven by an 'arbitrary arrest quota' and based on 'broad stereotypes based on race or ethnicity.'

When detaining the three day laborers who are plaintiffs in the lawsuit, all immigration agents knew about them is that they were Latino and were dressed in construction work clothes, the filing in the lawsuit said. It goes on to describe raids at swap meets and Home Depots where witnesses say federal agents grabbed anyone who 'looked Hispanic.'

(. . .)

ACLU attorney Mohammad Tajsar said Brian Gavidia, one of the U.S. citizens who was detained, was 'physically assaulted ... for no other reason than he was Latino and working at a tow yard in a predominantly Latin American neighborhood.'

Tajsar asked why immigration agents detained everyone at a car wash except two white workers, according to a declaration by a car wash worker, if race wasn’t involved.

Representing the government, attorney Sean Skedzielewski said there was no evidence that federal immigration agents considered race in their arrests, and that they only considered appearance as part of the 'totality of the circumstances', including prior surveillance and interactions with people in the field.

(. . .)

Lawyers from Immigrant Defenders Law Center and other groups say they also have been denied access to a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in downtown LA known as 'B-18' on several occasions since June, according to court documents.

Lawyer Mark Rosenbaum said in one incident on June 7 attorneys 'attempted to shout out basic rights' at a bus of people detained by immigration agents in downtown LA when the government drivers honked their horns to drown them out and chemical munitions akin to tear gas were deployed.'

AP News · Judge orders Trump administration to halt indiscriminate immigration stops, arrests in CaliforniaA federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to halt indiscriminate immigration stops and arrests in Southern California. The order Friday also bars the federal government from restricting attorney access at a Los Angeles immigration detention facility. Immigrant advocacy groups filed the lawsuit last week accusing President Donald Trump’s administration of systematically targeting brown-skinned people in Southern California during its ongoing immigration crackdown. A spokesperson for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security says the allegations are “disgusting and categorically false.”

#Homan #ICE #RacialProfiling

"'Look, people need to understand,' Homan told Fox News on Friday. ICE officers 'don’t need probable cause to walk up to somebody, briefly detain and question them.'

'They just need to tally the circumstances, right?' he claimed. 'They just go through their observation, you know, get out typical facts based on the location, the occupation, their physical appearance, their actions.'

(. . .)

Legal experts blasted Homan’s remarks.

Professor of Law, former U.S. Attorney and MSNBC/NBC News legal analyst Joyce Vance summed up Homan’s remarks: R'acial profiling.'

'This is patently false,' declared U.S. Rep. Daniel Goldman (D-NY), also an attorney, 'DHS has authority to question and search people coming into the country at points of entry. But ICE may not detain and question anyone without reasonable suspicion — and certainly not based on their physical appearance alone. This lawlessness must stop.'

Attorney and California Democratic state Senator Scott Wiener charged, 'This is literally the definition of a white nationalist police state.'

U.S. Rep. Yvette Clark (D-NY) warned, 'Trump’s thugs will racially profile you, then go on national television to brag about getting away with it.'

Attorney and CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Evan Gold explained, 'Walking up to people (without threatening) is legal. But ‘detaining’ people without ‘reasonable suspicion’ of criminal or quasi-criminal activity is illegal. Racial profiling is not cause for the required reasonable suspicion. ‘Let me see your papers’ is un-American.'

U.S. Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA), who, in a highly-publicized incident was forcibly removed and handcuffed by federal agents at a DHS press conference, wrote: 'And there you have it. Under the Trump Administration, ICE and Border Patrol are being empowered to stop and question you based solely on how you look. No probable cause. No real reason. Just your ‘physical appearance.’ That’s not justice—it’s profiling.'

'They’re saying the quiet part out loud now,' wrote New York Democratic State Senator Gustavo Rivera. 'Don’t get it twisted: if we let them keep doing this, they’ll find a reason to come for ANY ONE OF US soon enough.'

'THEY ARE ADMITTING IT,' wrote David J. Bier, Cato Institute Director of Immigration Studies and an expert on legal immigration, border security, and interior enforcement. 'Homan is admitting to participating in a criminal conspiracy against the Constitution of the United States,' he alleged.

Max Flugrath, communications director for Fair Fight Action, wrote: 'Trump’s Border Czar and Project 2025 contributor says ICE can detain anyone based on ‘suspicion’ and physical ‘appearance.’ That’s not immigration policy, it’s fascism.'"
