A mother was brutally assaulted by a mob of high school students during an anti-ICE protest at Issaquah High School in Washington state.
The incident was captured on video and widely shared on social media.
On Monday morning, hundreds of students from Issaquah High School poured out of classrooms to protest U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
The victim, who has chosen to remain anonymous due to fears of retaliation, described the ordeal as completely unprovoked.
The woman, who reportedly wishes to remain anonymous, said she was simply in the area when students suddenly surrounded her, bumping into her, cursing, and pulling her hair as the crowd closed in.
“I just got assaulted,” she can be heard saying in the footage.
Students, many holding signs with messages like “I HATE ICE,” swarm the woman in a frenzy of pushing and shoving. The mob’s aggression escalates quickly, with the woman struggling to break free amid cheers and chants from the crowd.
Journalist Jonathan Choe interviewed the mother in the video and reports it was “totally unprovoked and the cops just watched it all go down without intervening.”
WATCH:
Local police officers from the Issaquah Police Department were reportedly present at the scene but did not step in to stop the assault.
WATCH:
The Issaquah School District and police department have yet to issue public statements.
I’m with you!
I lived there. My Brother graduated there. The average kid’s parents work at Microsoft.
The sad part is, Issaquah is fairly well-to-do and many of these students WILL be doctors and lawyers and teachers and leaders in their community in the future.
Issaquah is hoity-toity mountain suburb east of Seattle on the western slope of the Cascades. It used to be a nice place. Of course, Seattle used to be a nice place too. I suspect the local commie rat bastard teachers had their paws in this.
A planned event signs, bullhorns and violence. The officer should be fired, I’m sorry I forget only communist are protected. There should be arrests. They got enough faces on video.
Lots of blaming the victim in the comments there. I don’t know what the hell is happening to this country.
Social media, it looks like the commie teacher’s unions are winning.
“The price of liberty is eternal vigilance”
Trump needs to stop all Federal money going to schools who can’t keep their little chimpanzees in the classroom. Schools are not where you go to riot because you can’t read or do math. Even the low I.Q. Skinnies know you go to school to lear and count bundles of money for the skrewal officials.
Issaquah used to be as lilly white 25 years ago as could be. I lived east of it in North Bend WA. Issaquah was too expensive to buy a home with my pitiful Boeing salary.
Both areas were very rich with Boeing, Microsoft and Kenworth employees.
Many professionals and well off retirees lived in the Mercer island, Bellevue, and Renton highlands areas.
There was almost no crime. It is quite legal to get a permit to conceal carry and be armed. Most WA Democrats aren’t smart enough to make that effort.
The problem is there are too many Democrat voters that don’t produce anything, and use the power to vote to tax and take away from the productive people, who subsequently leave in order to escape the oppression of the non-producers.
I saw the writing on the wall 25 years ago and left.
Best thing I ever did for my family.
Yup. Scott was right.
I grew up in an integrated neighborhood. Later, my wife and I moved to an integrated neighborhood.
I’m retired now and have two residences. I believe in climate change, doing it twice a year.
One area is all white, except for the rare black person there on vacation. When I do see a black person, I’m surprised and apprehensive. It’s time to be on guard and situationally aware. Maintain your peripheral vision in case he makes a move on you.
The other area is white except for a few pockets where blacks live. It’s in the South. I’m generally not too concerned as many blacks go out of their way to be friendly. If they don’t try to engage in a friendly way, I revert to being situationally aware.
I had relatives who lived out west. When riding a horse and encountering an Indian on horseback, the unspoken practice was to head for opposite ridges. That’s kind of the way I operate in cities, head for the opposite sidewalk.
But it was mostly peaceful bludgeoning, right?
Mom may want to sue the asses off the ISSAQUAH Tribal leaders and the ISSAQUAH P.D.’s Donut Munching and Coffee Swilling and Needlepoint Sewing Circle.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
In the video she said she asked the protesters if their parents knew they were skipping school to protest. That is what started it.
In today’s blue cities of blue states, the criminals, insurrectionists, cops and judges are all on the same side.
Learn how to deploy them properly in order to disperse a crowd and make a safe escape.
It is time to seriously consider releasing (extending the fault line) the three westernmost contiguous states and push them out to sea.
Those states bring nothing of value to our nation. NOTHING.
Washington, Oregon, California? Nothing good to say about them.
Good Riddance!
Has nothing to do with censorship.
I think you don’t understand the concept of weaponized narratives.
Longhouse Karens.
Blacks are 13% of the population and commit 52% of all crime. How did that whole “freeing the slaves” thing work out?
