ICE Gestapo teargas a peaceful woman who was simply waving American flag [View all]

Appropriately dark representation of what’s happening to our nation.
TW: police ultimately fire tear gas grenades at the woman waving the American Flag.

This is happening in and around LA. God save us all.

"This is not the America we know!" CrispyQ Jun 8 #1

Title lies. It was the guy with the shield who attracted the gas and got gassed. Woman had moved away Bernardo de La Paz Jun 8 #2

Bernardo...No, the tear gas 'cloud' was forcing the woman to move, then another canister IrishBubbaLiberal Jun 8 #3

0:29 Shield guy. 0:35 Flag woman moves out of scene. 0:39 gas grenade aimed directly at shield guy Bernardo de La Paz Jun 8 #7

Bernardo PLEASE stop misleading. Video is VERY CLEAR that teargas forced woman IrishBubbaLiberal Jun 8 #10

Nothing I wrote was misleading or wrong. The OP title is misleading. She wasn't even in the scene when the grenade comes Bernardo de La Paz Jun 8 #12

Stop, misleading, Tear Gas was starting to surround woman IrishBubbaLiberal Jun 8 #13

Again: That gas was drifting does not mean gas was aimed at her. . . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Jun 8 #14

Yeah, I don't think the woman was the target. There was a lot going on to side and behind lady. With that said, Silent Type Jun 8 #5

Yes, that's what I saw, too MorbidButterflyTat Jun 8 #11

You are correct JoseBalow Jun 8 #15

Not enough swastikas on that flag, probably. Dave Bowman Jun 8 #4
