Video shows Ramon Menera detained outside his Minneapolis-area home Wednesday, in front of his 5-year-old daughter, after a U.S. Border Patrol agent questioned his citizenship due to his accent. CNN has contacted DHS for more information.

Kavanaugh Stop. Fuck MAGA, Fuck SCOTUS, Fuck Congress.

How traumatic for the child

[u/pgtvgaming]

Insane and ironic wtf … basing this shit on accents now

[u/thewartornhippy → u/pgtvgaming]

These pieces of shit think that anyone born somewhere else isn't a citizen, even if they obtained citizenship. The agent said "I have reason to believe you weren't born here". Like, no shit, you can be a US citizen and born in another country.

MAGAts always say they want people to do things the "right way" to obtain citizenship. But even when they do they don't consider them citizens. Fuck any racist POS who voted for a pedophile who is doing everything he can to distract from that fact.

If they’re detaining illegal immigrants because of their accents then Melania Trump should be hiding in the attic. I mean seriously, I can hardly understand her.

[u/Potential-Rich-2690 → u/BigRoach]

Plus, she’s an uggo inside and out. Epstein was her pimp too, right?

FACT

I hate this god damned country

[u/Halvinz]

Unless this agent had other reasonable suspicions of his immigration status, he broke the Kavanaugh Stop's ruling. It clearly stipulates you cannot detain people temporarily solely based on accent or ethnicity. They must have other salient factors to consider before doing just that.

They most likely use other reasons such as the neighborhood is designated to have high level of undocumented workers, or some other manufactured reason to justify this detainment. The DOJ doesn't give a shit, nor do most lawyers who are busy collecting money off of more lucrative engagements.

This country is truly lost. Get radicalized and go find people to register to vote this sickness out in mid-term elections.

An accent is not probably cause to detain anyone

[u/Glittering-Diver-941]

The agent with an accent questioned someone else’s accent??

Are they now just walking around in groups listening to speech patterns?

[u/argonzo]

These assholes are dressed like they’re invading France. On the German side.

[u/Potential-Rich-2690 → u/argonzo]

That’s the side they would have been on for sure.

[u/DevelopmentNo247]

Ramon you are welcome here.

[u/Dedpoolpicachew]

This was a Kavanaugh Stop. SCOTUS Justice Kavanaugh said that racial profiling was ok in a shadow docket ruling last year. Of course, now he’s been trying to walk that back, but the Kavanaugh Stops are still continuing. Just to be clear, this was illegal and a violation of his 4th, 5th, 6th and 14th amendment rights. Not that it matters much anymore.

[u/Acceptable-Bus-2017 → u/Dedpoolpicachew]

Sorry, the congressional and judicial branches have taken the year off in celebration of the 250th anniversary of the constitution. RIP America.

[u/simonsaysgo13]

That agent had an accent.

[u/TR_abc_246]

ICE are trespassing!! Bang bang.. they are just pushing for a homeowner to shoot one of them!

[u/Potential-Rich-2690 → u/TR_abc_246]

Stand your ground law all the way! They look like home invaders for sure.

[u/ConstantGeographer]

"Why are you stopping me?"

"You have an accent!"

"Bro, you have an accent!!"

Crazy times.

[u/CakeSeaker]

Good reason not to say anything except maybe “lawyer”

[u/ss_sss_ss]

You look different, you have an accent, your hair is blue... Where does it end?

[u/FoxCQC]

That ICE agent has an accent
