Anti-ICE protesters in Portland, Oregon, clashed with law enforcement this week after bringing a full-sized guillotine to the federal immigration office, prompting a sharp response from ICE. The event took place on Labor Day, and video footage shows demonstrators burning a flag before the clashes began. According to an ICE spokesperson, the agency finds the behavior to be “unhinged” and the threats to be taken seriously.
The spokesperson told Fox News Digital, “For misguided protestors, who don’t have the first idea what the ICE mission is, to call for beheading officers is unhinged behavior.” However, this is likely a way to equate the Trump administration and ICE with the French Revolution. In that time, the people saw those in charge as tyrannical and deserving of revolutionary-style justice, since they would not listen to reason and continued to try to harm the regular people.
