When Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis, he says he was detained and shackled for hours.
“We're turning into something that I can't even begin to respect, and something that I literally went to war—or they told me I went to war—to fight against,” he says.
Since he was arrested, he’s continued protesting. Mother Jones senior reporter Julia Lurie spoke to Austin outside the Whipple Federal Building, where ICE is based.
“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."
“What about the illegal immi—“ I DON’T CARE!!! I DON’T CARE!! MY IRISH ANCESTORS SNUCK ONTO A BOAT TO COME OVER HERE “ILLEGALLY” DURING THE POTATO FAMINE!!! I COULD NOT CARE LESS ABOUT SOMEONE BEING HERE “ILLEGALLY” WHEN WE’RE *ALL* ON STOLEN LAND!!!!!!
