  US army veteran grabbed by ICE
Posted by: Lilith7 - 18-07-2025, 02:53 PM - Forum: Opinion and Politics - Replies (3)

He was dragged from his car & sprayed with pepper spray & pinned down by ICE agents. He told them he's a citizen & an army veteran, but was still taken to a detention centre.
He wasn't allowed to shower or change clothes despite being covered in pepper spray. After 3 days he was released with no explanation.

They're close to taking the prize for most devious, underhanded political party ever.   I could comment further but not without swearing profusely.. Angry Dodgy



The long Neo Liberal con, the regulatory standards bill. Their aim is to enshrine the rights of individuals - particulalry propety holders & business owners, over  the collective good of all Kiwis.

This could make it more difficult for govt to regulate harmful business practises or corporate  exploitation, even if that's in the public interest.
