ICE pulled over a man in Patterson, CA + shot him 6 times, hitting his face. ICE now says he is part of a gang in LA – a city he has no connection to.

Carlos Mendoza Hernandez, 36, now in ICU, says he's "never ever been in a gang" + was shot without justification www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/apr/09/california-ice-shooting-man-accusation

His attorney started a GoFundMe for him. Mr. Hernandez was the supporter of his fiancée & their 2 year old daughter. Please help if you can, thank you.

Shortstack SS boy wasn't the problem. ICE Barbie wasn't the problem. The problem is the organization as it exists now and arguably how it has always existed.

It also doesn't matter if he's in a gang or not. ICE are illegitimate Nazi insurrectionists waging a civil war on behalf of Russian agents in the Republican Party who seized control of the USA. Fuck ICE, they are traitors guilty of federal & international crimes. *Every* victim deserves justice.

This is a better framing. Doesn't matter if he was the guiltiest man alive. Police shouldn't be judge jury and executioner. The biggest gang in America used to be LAPD. Now it's ICE

They will continue doing such UNTIL they are held accountable by the state courts… no pardons allowed with death penalties on the table as a deterrent for further abuses
