Grandma activist whines about being ‘traumatized’ after being detained for pushing ICE agent
Biz Pac Review ^ | 7/12/2025 | Vivek Saxena

A leftist woman who’s been hassling U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents ran to the media to whine after she was unsurprisingly detained.

The woman, a 71-year-old grandmother named Barbara Stone, showed up at the San Diego Courthouse Tuesday with the explicit intent to “document” ICE agents, according to local station KGTV.

She claimed she was a volunteer for a left-wing pro-illegal alien group named Detention Resistance that goes around “showing support for … asylum seekers,” according to Stone’s own words.

Speaking with KGTV, her lawyer added that the purpose of her volunteer work is to “film[] the arbitrary detentions of court participants.”

While documenting the ICE agents at the San Diego Courthouse, Stone at one point allegedly pushed a female agent, prompting the agent to tell her, “Don’t do that!”

“You walked right in front of me!” Stone retorted instead of just apologizing.

The female ICE agent was then asked by her peers whether she wanted to file charges.

“Sure, yeah, at this point, because people are getting out of hand,” the female officer replied.

The agents then went after Stone, who’d already left the scene and was at the time walking toward a stairwell.

She was subsequently stopped, handcuffed, and detained for eight hours, after which she was let go. Stone now claims she was traumatized.

“I have a large bruise there,” Stone told local station KNSD, pointing to a spot on her body. “I feel mentally and physically traumatized.”

Her husband has denied that she did anything wrong.

“She is a soft-spoken person who was here to protect innocent refugees, and she is the last person in the universe who would hit an agent or interfere with their work,” he told KNSD.

Note that logically, his statement didn’t seem to make sense. She was there to “protect” illegal aliens, but she would never “interfere” with ICE’s work? The two remarks seemed to contradict one another.

Stone faces no charges over her behavior, though her phone was reportedly confiscated and evidently never returned.

In a statement to KGTV, ICE fiercely defended its actions.

“On July 7, a woman assaulted an ICE officer as they were conducting immigration enforcement,” the statement reads. “The individual was detained and questioned at the Edward J. Schwartz Federal Building in San Diego by Federal Protective Services officers. She was later released.”

“Anyone who assaults or actively obstructs law enforcement in the performance of their sworn duties will face consequences which could include arrest. Our officers are facing a 700% increase in assaults against them as they put their lives on the line to arrest murderers, rapists, and gang members,” the statement continues.

‘These are not asylum seekers. Mexico is an asylum country and they went right through it to get the the US. They are sponges, not asylum seekers’

That’s right, these illegal aliens are nothing but freeloaders and burdens on taxpayers.

One of thes biggest threats to a sane society today is the white, liberal female, usually with a three-part name along with some useless degree in “studies” of some sort from a whacked-out, liberal, communist endocrination center. They think they know it all and smarter than the rest of the human race. They are the most vile, rabid, nasty beotches one will ever meet. They hate America, they hate men, they hate you, they hate me; and most of all, they hate themselves.

The feds often charge by indictment. You walk free today while evidence is gathered. Weeks or months later, a warrant is issued for your arrest. Just wait grandma.

Federal prosecutors like to get their ducks in a row before actually filing charges. Indictment will likely follow especially now that she is squawking to the media.

Throw this criminal interfering with ICE into jail. Who cares if she is old? Hopefully SHE can be deported.

The 60’s must have been good to the old dame she had to have taken everything to go that nuts.

Sentence for one out of over 1500 charges against people that day, Jan 6.

I hope that DOJ is arresting illegals and at least charging them with the same or more.

Adams pleaded Guilty to one charge: Assaulting, Resisting, or Impeding Certain Officers. The other charges are dismissed. Sentenced on 12/8/2023 to 17 months incarceration; 1 year Supervised Release; $100 Special Assessment; Restitution of $2,000. Adams received a full pardon on January 20, 2025
