It’s trash day!
On Tuesday, police officers across the nation raided #OccupyICE encampments to clear out the far left malcontents blocking the street and harassing ICE agents.
About 50 police officers showed up to clear out an #OccupyICE encampment in Philadelphia Tuesday.
As expected, things got heated and the police ended up arresting protesters.
Immigration reporter for the Philadelphia Inquirer, Jeff Gammage was live on the scene:

A female protester was kicking and screaming as she was cuffed and carried away by police. A bystander could be heard saying the woman being arrested ‘has Asperger’s and is pregnant.’
Officers screamed, “Stop resisting!” as the woman kicked and screamed.

Additional footage of #OccupyICE protesters blocking the street in Philly–the guy with his shirt unbuttoned really means business…
It’s a relatively small group of #OccupyICE demonstrators, maybe 30 now, but loud and holding ground. Police have reopened southbound Broad, at least for now. @phillydotcom @phillydotcom pic.twitter.com/j5sSNigSBT

Abolish ICE protesters set up camps in front of ICE buildings all over the country, blocking employees from coming and going and often intimidating or threatening ICE agents who are simply enforcing federal laws.
It’s about time police moved in to clear out the encampments.
