Billie Joe Armstrong Tells ICE to 'F-ck Off' in Support of L.A. Protesters
Source: Rolling Stone
Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong told Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Trump administration to “fuck off” in support of the thousands of Los Angeles-area residents who have been protesting raids against the immigrant community, which began over the weekend.
Armstrong posted an Instagram video filmed from one of the Los Angeles protests, captioned with a flipping-the-bird emoji and an ice cube. It’s soundtracked to Green Day’s “Fuck Off,” a bonus track from their Saviors (edition de luxe), which arrived in May. The clip shows a spray-painted car ignited in flames and police ostensibly arresting demonstrators, walking them while zip-tied away from the scene.
The Green Day frontman was among the thousands who have joined in protest against the administration’s ICE tactics against immigrants in the city, which began on Friday when ICE executed raids at several workplaces in the Los Angeles area. On Sunday, Finneas said he was tear-gassed while attending a “very peaceful” protest in downtown L.A.
