The image is a still from a video taken by Hunter Demster who was told he would have to move 25 feet away or face misdemeanor charges due to a TN law that went into effect in July.

The Tennessee law is similar to those passed in Indiana and Louisiana, which two federal courts have ruled unconstitutional due to the laws’ vague nature in allowing police broad discretion to create buffer zones.

National Guard members were seen patrolling a popular commercial area after arriving in Memphis on Friday and there have been reports of an increase in immigration raids and stop-and-frisk policing.

On Monday October 13, 2025, the DOJ released the following numbers and reasons for arrests of over 800 individuals (including 17 juveniles) in Memphis:

• Warrant pickups - 297

• Administrative (Immigration) - 161

•Firearms Arrests - 94

•Narcotics - 79

•Homicide - 6

•Probation/Parole - 2

•Sex Offenses - 34

130 unexplained "other" charges

62 "known gang members" were also reportedly identified in the operation.

The Memphis task force is composed of state, federal, and local agencies. The majority of arrests have occured following traffic stops of Memphis residents.

Imagine being Asian American and working for ICE.... Guess he's hoping if he arrests enough people, he'll be put on the good list

Someone needs to get that douchecanoe a copy of "They Called Us Enemy". It has pictures and everything.

he'll be put on the good list

The we owe this guy a huge bonus, so let put him somewhere he can't cash the check lists.

I'm expecting to hear a lot of these guys getting stiffed.

Honestly hard to tell someone's race from a tiny bit of exposed skin from a blurry photo. Color accuracy isn't event that great.

lol seriously? are you going to sit there and try to say he "might not be asian"? would you be saying the same thing about a black man with a "tiny bit of exposed skin"?

i think the thing you wanted to say but didn't, is "why talk about race"

race is relevant here because they're literally committing racist violence, and i've never met an asian who spent much time in this country without experiencing some kind of racism/discrimination/bullying. and when you're a minority, you learn to recognize "the look" people give you when they automatically hate you because you're not 100% white. i know because i'm also asian. but now this guy's joined the racist nazi gestapo team.

hence the comment "imagine being one of the people your band of masked terrorists is targeting"
