Sunday on MS NOW’s “Connect,” New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani said U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) should cease all operations in New York City.
Mamdani said, “We are talking about a federal agency that shot at a moving vehicle in broad daylight while its agents were wearing construction vests, using long guns, and left New Yorkers in terror. That is, as you’ve said, the same experience that so many have had anywhere across this country whenever it comes to ICE.”
He continued, “I think that what they have shown, time and again, is that they view the law as a suggestion. There is a reason why the NYPD would not be shooting at a moving vehicle. There is a reason why law enforcement agents are supposed to wear identifiable information and uniforms. What you could see in that video, and in the videos that have been released since, is people, bystanders outside, unsure as to what they were even seeing, because in that imagery, it feels as if you’re almost looking at a mass shooter, as opposed to seeing someone who’s purportedly representing a federal agency.”
