The kid does has his hands in the air when attack by ICE

🚨BREAKING: ICE/Border Patrol are now pistol-whipping 16-year-olds and smashing their heads into the curb.

In the video, an agent illegally tries to detain an unaccompanied minor, in Long Beach, California.

The child has his hands in the air.

An agent runs up and hits him in the head with a pistol. Then two agents tackle him and force his head down against the curb.

After the child is already on the ground, pinned by two armed adults, another agent brings out a K9, for what reason exactly?

Then one agent puts his knee on the child’s neck while another handcuffs him, even though he’s not resisting at all.

Unaccompanied minors are supposed to be handled through child-welfare procedures, not slammed into concrete by armed agents.

Using a gun as a weapon is deadly force. You don’t get to use deadly force on a child who is standing still with his hands up. And putting a knee on someone’s neck while they’re restrained is a textbook violation of use-of-force rules and basic constitutional rights.

ICE/Border Patrol agents are brutalizing people for sport, they are executing people because they can, trafficking children, and if they aren’t stopped no one will be safe.

1. Out of the 100's of police videos I have watched not once has the handler

been able to control their dog.

They should not be allowed to have dogs or horses.

[patphil]

31. I think the intent is clear. They want us to see that the dog is just one slip of the leash away from biting someone.

[Orrex]

73. 100% this

It's a terrorist tactic thinly masked as a law enforcement procedure.

[dalton99a]

2. ICE is sadistic evil scum.

[Dave Id]

16. Yes ICE is evil scum,

So is president Trump who has to power to stop this, but won't. He thrives on the pain of 'others'.

[sanatanadharma]

62. And the entire GOP as well, especially representatives are morally malignant but ethically culpable

Republicans can stop this.
From Trump forward in time, NO maga, no republican, no conservative, no fundamentalist, no jingoist-nationalist, no militia-NRA-gunner need EVER be listened to, believed, trusted, elected, or respected for the next half-century; and that is if the USA survives as intended by the Founders who fought against the kings-men.

[Easterncedar]

3. They brought a guy to the ER in MN with a cracked skull

And facial injuries and claimed he had done it himself running into a brick wall. The medical staff said there were injuries on both sides and the back of his head, so no. The guy was a legal immigrant, now disabled. They finally unshackled him from the hospital bed and ultimately just let him go.

[mahina]

23. Oh my God

[ProfessorGAC]

54. Back Of The Head

I said in an earlier post on this topic that the ICE agents are too dumb to know the medical experts can tell how a head was injured.
So they lied & it wasn't even a good lie.
Tge ER people knew 5 seconds after they took over that they were lied to.

[D. Spaulding]

4. To think this is all going on, and that

more people aren't just absolutely outraged by it, is what really has me concerned about our country.

[Diamond_Dog]

9. The cultists are in denial, for sure.

They believe what right wing media tells them - that these people getting assaulted were paid terrorists, “obstructing law enforcement” and therefore brought it on themselves. It’s sickening to defend this performative thuggery, on children, yet.

[MIButterfly]

32. Just how effing stupid does one have to be to believe that all these protesters are being paid?

It just boggles my little mind. Of course, a lot of what those dumbasses believe boggles my little mind.

There are some incredibly stupid people in this country, either flat-out stupid; willfully ignorant; or easily led.

[haele]

58. Because George Soros has more money annually to pay liberal protesters...

Than all of the Silicon Valley Tech Geniuses Combined! Dontcha know?
I get $100 per 50 word + paragraph I post here in DU alone due to his deal with Earl G...why do you think TygerBright, H20 Man and the Ferret post long form blog posts here? It makes my monthly EV minivan payment...okay, I have to add three more words here ... (Whew - Ka-ching!)
And $500 a post flat rate on any other Social Media sites.
Just scan the QR code below with your liberal Democrat secret decoder phone filter app, and that will get you to the Dark Web Soros site. You will have to provide at least five personal references, though...

[BattleRow]

42. How much did he get paid for a cracked skull?

[CanonRay]

57. The answer I get all the freaking time is

They shouldn't have been in the area. Like you don't have a right to be on your own block? In your own city? What the actual fuck is wrong with these people.

[haele]

60. They have to blame the victim.

If they don't, they will have to admit to themselves that
1) Immigration Enforcement is untrained and out of control,
2) what happens to other people, whether they look like immigrants or they're just observers, could just as easily happen to them and their loved ones just for being in the wrong place at the wrong time, and
3) Anyone who doesn't also blame the victim will know that they - the MAGA, MAGA adjacent, and Government Enforcement groupies in general - are really awful, unredeemable people driving this once great country down the Highway to Hell.

[Lonestarblue]

20. MAGA cultists do not care. Their attitude seems to be that anyone not a citizen deserves hatred and violent injury.

I think very few of the cult even know that migrants who have applied for asylum are in the country legally until they have a hearing and are either granted asylum or remanded for deportation. They don't care about the law and reality, they just enjoy seeing black and brown people get hurt or killed.

[regnaD kciN]

26. Don't you mean "anyone not White"...?

[WinstonSmith4740]

74. Don't forget...

Republican.

[bdamomma]

45. Until

this happens to their relatives or themselves, they will keep on thinking it won't happen to me.
That's denial.

Fascism comes for everyone. Until we stop it.

[pandr32]

5. Is this our new reality?

I hope our protests, growing into a movement, finally wear down some of the financial backers to this criminal regime. We must save others from becoming victims. We must stop this brutality.
We are supposed to protect children and vulnerable people. We are supposed to embrace and model civilized behavior.
W are heading out today to a quickly put together protest. We all should!

[B.See]

72. YES. We are OCCUPIED by armed, masked THUGS, courtesy of Donald Trump.

[Baitball Blogger]

6. The ugly America from the 1950s has resurrected.

[BattleRow]

43. And all the botox in the world cant conceal the metastatic ,insidious decay of the collective MAGA cult.

7. Please launch Miller into the sun

[maxrandb]

19. That's too quick

His suffering on earth should only be surpassed by his suffering in hell.

I'm thinking testicular cancer that has spread to his bones, but when they do an ultrasound, one of the tumors is a teratoma tumor that registers a heartbeat. No treatment, or pain medication that might damage that heartbeat.

When he dies after several years and goes to hell, he learns the only medical treatment available is to have rats gnaw the tumors out.

Sorry, read one too many horror novels.

[Wednesdays]

40. "Sorry, read one too many horror novels."

That, or fairy tales. Some fairy tales in their original form had really, really brutal endings.

[bdamomma]

46. I rather

see him dragged into a court for CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY!!! And the rest of the thugs.

He's living on a military base, that weak damaged POS.

[jeffreyi]

8. At least these assholes are not wearing masks, so identify them, already.

[progressoid]

10. Not ICE. I think that might be your typical cops or a DEA bust.

Ice have masks. These "officers" showed their faces and they have a canine as well.

[LittleGirl]

29. This is Long Beach CA. Law passed against masks wearing ICE. nt

[Boo1]

51. ICE is absolutely still using masks in CA

Impossible?

17. Utterly sickening

These bastards have to pay for their evil, unconstitutional, immoral acts. They are disgusting beyond words.

[Smilo]

18. Untrained Gestapo

aided and abetted by a sheriff's officer.

[gordianot]

25. Good point at least the Gestapo was trained in their brutality these goons do what comes naturally.

A sixteen year old was beheaded for his protest his two older cohorts were imprisoned after a trial survived the war. Ice is much worse than the Gestapo they kill on a whim and giggles. Pistol whipping is often fatal. If we can survive there needs to be trials for the Ice goons.

[SunSeeker]

38. That piece of shit Sheriff should have arrested the goon for assault.

Last edited Sun Feb 1, 2026, 05:30 PM - Edit history (1)

He gave that kid a head injury. An ambulance should have been called.

[Boo1]

53. Yeah, I think those were ALL Sherrifs Dept.

Don't look like ICE at all.

[SunSeeker]

56. The scum who pistol-whipoed the boy was definitely not wearing a Sheriff uniform.

Last edited Sun Feb 1, 2026, 05:32 PM - Edit history (1)

He was wearing what looked like an ICE CBP "POLICE" vest and street clothes.

[Boo1]

63. What makes it an ICE CBP vest?

All I can see written is POLICE, everything else is too grainy to read. THey have no masks. Their are multiple marked police vehicles that show up but only 1 uniformed officer. The uniformed officer appears to be wearing the same type of badge as the others.

You do understand that all police and Sheriffs Departments use plain clothes officers?

[SunSeeker]

64. Sheriff vests say "SHERIFF" on them.

I live next door to the City of Long Beach in an area patrolled by the county sheriff, so I am familiar with their vests and uniforms. But don't take my word for it, Google "la county sheriff vest images" (Long Beach is in LA County).

"You do understand that all police and Sheriffs Departments use plain clothes officers?"

Of course I do. Good God, could you be more condescending?

[bluestarone]

21. Somehow we have to figure out a way to these videos and stories PUBLIC so the public can see them.

Some will care some won't BUT NONE of this is reaching public eyes and ears. HOW can we accomplish that?

[sop]

22. Why is the uniformed female cop just standing there doing crowd control?

Clearly, this was excessive force. She should have stepped in to protect the minor being brutalized, no matter what the reason for his arrest.

[mymomwasright]

24. Maybe post it to some other platforms

If they allow it.

[Duncthechonk]

27. One day these animals.

Will stand trial.

[liberalgunwilltravel]

28. They should be lucky enough

To live that long. This escalation of violence only leads in one direction. I just hope there are enough real patriots to save our republic from these monsters.

[bdamomma]

47. I wish

the ICC would put these thugs who inflict pain on others gather them up and cause them pain.

[not a texan]

30. Regarding the dogs

I was stuck by other videos of the lack of training and control these agents have over some of the dogs. I saw dogs panic on their leash when gunshots and crowd control munitions were used. Are these dogs rejects from other training programs. Are they just like the humans involved, not the pick of the litter?

[TommyT139]

79. No dog is a "reject."

Training animals to attack people is cruelty to the animal, and deserves an immediate death penalty for the "human" who is abusing them.

[Clouds Passing]

33. ICE are the new child traffickers

[Duncthechonk]

50. So true.

[Joinfortmill]

34. There needs to be a reckoning...soon.

[pfitz59]

35. People will fight back

Inevitable. Ironic. Adter 250 years we're full circle. Fighting a mad king.

[bdamomma]

48. If they

ever pay attention to past history, mad kings, despots and dictators have terrible endings which they deserve.

[sakabatou]

36. We have people who'd gladly torture kids in power

[appmanga]

37. It's interesting how the goons react to a couple of good sized adults...

...showing the kind of punk bitches they are even with their guns and dogs.

[JoseBalow]

39. Rounding up the usual suspects

We know what comes next...

[Stargleamer]

41. Other reports say it was Lynwood, CA not Long Beach. N/t

[SunSeeker]

67. Correct, it's Long Beach Boulevard in the neighboring city of Lynwood.

It happened at the corner of Long Beach Boulevard and Cedar Avenue in the city of Lynwood at 2:55 pm on 1/30/2026.
This statement by a Lynwood Council Member acknowledged the "disturbing" video but says that what appeared to be federal agents were actually Anaheim Police who ended up there; the Sheriff was not involved in the operation and came up to it after the fact.
https://www.instagram.com/reel/DUKVdtckU0Y/

The city of Lynwood does not have its own independent police department. Instead, law enforcement services are provided by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.

It is odd that Anaheim PD, which is in Orange County, would be in Lynwood, which is Los Angeles County. Anaheim PD has a lot of police excessive use of force complaints against it.

[Stargleamer]

80. Fun Fact: Weird Al is from Lynwood. . .

although he was born in Downey.

[MadameButterfly]

44. Do we know where this kid is now?

Is anyone attending to his head wound?

[SunSeeker]

70. Hopefully in the hospital being treated for his head injury.

That was actually an Anaheim police officer who assaulted him. So his chances of getting medical treatment are a lot better than if he was in ICE custody.

https://www.instagram.com/reel/DUKVdtckU0Y/

[SCantiGOP]

49. Just two years ago

you could have shown this video and no one, not a single person, would have believed that it happened in the US.
Or, if told it was in the US, they would be certain that all of the cops were in jail and on their way to a trial and significant jail sentence.
Trump has normalized this, and that is why millions of people are now willing to risk being in the open opposition.

[usedtobedemgurl]

55. This is nothing more than legalized KKK.

They are hunting down anyone they hate and catching them whatever way they deem is fit. This video makes me sick.

[Borogove]

59. There has to be a day of reckoning for these lawless cretins.

[IbogaProject]

61. That is the demeanor of an armed robber

I think that "agent" was a pro robbing drug dealers before this that is their style. Also extra horrible to do that to a surrendered kid posing nothing but submission.

[sl8]

65. A Lynwood council member says that this was an Anaheim police operation that ended in Lynwood.

Last edited Sun Feb 1, 2026, 07:17 PM - Edit history (1)

He says that ICE wasn't involved and that the LA Sheriff's Dept. didn't show up until the end of the operation.

I''m taking this with a big grain of salt, but it seems to make more sense than most of the speculation I've read about the incident. At least it would account for what looks like "Anaheim" on the uniforms.

66. Regardless, that goon should not be on the streets.

Using a gun to beat someone in the head (while their hands are up!) is a great way for the gun to go off and shoot someone in an urban area like this. That idiot should be fired and prosecuted, I don’t care if he is ICE or municipal police, he should not be on the streets.

[sl8]

71. Absolutely.

Still, it would be nice to know the true story and who he works for.

[orangecrush]

68. ...

[SunSeeker]

75. This is an Anaheim Police officer, according to a Lynwood City Council Member. Still a goon though.

This was not in the city of Long Beach, but at the intersection of Long Beach Boulevard and the Cedar Avenue in the city of Lynwood at 2:55 pm on 1/30/2026.
This statement by a Lynwood Council Member acknowledged the "disturbing" video but says that what appeared to be federal agents were actually Anaheim Police who ended up there, the Sheriff was not involved in the operation and came up to it after the fact.

Anaheim PD is notorious. They sprayed a fleeing suspect with 76 bullets a few years ago. It was a miracle no bystanders were hurt. https://ktla.com/news/local-news/anaheim-officers-wont-be-charged-after-firing-76-shots-during-pursuit-killing-suspect-warning-graphic-video/

76. When did these thugs get dogs?

there is a place in hell

[GoodRaisin]

77. Outright assault. Shut the government down until this is stopped.

And that ICE asshole needs to go to prison.

[Timewas]

78. They are

They are doing this on purpose to get people all riled up and fighting back, then maga ass pres can declare emergency and try to stop the election and maybe start a civil war...
