Wednesday morning, ICE conducted a raid in Los Angeles at a Home Depot where known MS-13 gang members hang out. It was pretty epic.
(Yes, I got what I voted for again)
It's something you see in law enforcement operations pretty regularly. Law enforcement hangs out in the back of an unmarked, nondescript vehicle, then pounces.
But apparently, Penske wants you to know you can't put people in the back of the truck like that! And they're going to tell on the DHS for improper use of their trucks!
Here's the statement in case they wise up and delete the post:
Yes, Penske is going out if its way to give a woke counter-signal to federal law enforcement because they don't like that ICE is arresting MS-13 gangbangers and other illegal immigrants.
Whatever corporate girl boss wrote this statement is definitely NOT Penske material.
The comments on the virtue signal were brutal but hilarious. A sampling:
But Homeland Security had the last laugh:
Care to comment, Penske?
Penske trucks were good enough to come here in, so there good enough to go home in !
Yep, it's always about liability. We might as well replace "liberty" on our coins with "liability." The Deeper State is the pre-totalitarian insurance state.
I figured that......................
Penske and their insurance company do not want to be sued into bankruptcy.............
Probably a legal maneuver to head off any lawsuits..........
There was no response from IICE. I read the article. The headline is a tease.
Why do you think The Captain sold 1/3 of Indianapolis Motor Speedway and INDYCAR to Fox?
I clicked on the link but the Homeland Security response cannot be found ....
Mind telling what their response was??
I don’t know either.............
“Biden used box trucks to transport his Land’s End “Patriot Front”.”
Very good description of these buffoons, though I thought it was LL Bean.
Home Depot has Rental Trucks with Liftgates and they will Rent them by the hour.
Is there a reason we have to have cute names for detention centers? Whose idea was that?
the ones at our home depot say “penske” on them
LOL !!!
