    the deputy marshal “fit the general description of a subject being sought by ICE.”

    100% chance the description was “Mexican”.

          Persian?

          Mexican!

          Greek?

          You guessed it, Mexican!

    You’d think when they asked him for his ID and he showed them his badge and ID card, they’d realize they got the wrong person.

    What this illustrates is that ICE does a horrible job of checking people’s identity. It took validation by multiple state officers to get him released.

      Good, way too many jackboots with non-pasty complexions voted for this. I hope they eat their own more often.

    the U.S. Marshals Service saying in a statement that the deputy marshal “fit the general description of a subject being sought by ICE.”

    Description: “non-white”
