FULL TITLE: Police: Man with Rifle, ‘Incendiary Devices’ Attacked Migrant Detention Center Hours After ICE Protest
Police in Tacoma, Washington, say they shot and killed a man armed with a rifle and throwing flammable objects at a migrant detention center. The attack followed a rally outside the facility by several hours. The motivation of the attacker has not been released at this time. An employee at the Northwest Detention Center in Tacoma called police early Saturday morning to report a man with a rifle who was throwing “incendiary devices” and setting vehicles on fire, according to a report by QFox13.
The attack on the migrant detention center followed by several hours, a rally by migrant supporters outside the facility operated for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement by GEO Group.
It is unknown at this time if the individual was attacking the facility with anti-ICE motivations, anti-migrant motivations, or if it was unrelated to either motive; however, a statement from GEO Group, a Florida based company that operates the facility in Tacoma, attributed the attack to the anger resulting from misrepresentations in media.
The statement, published by QFox13 blamed a “factually inaccurate portrayal” of their detention centers for spurring “misplaced aggression and a dangerous environment for our employees.”
Tacoma police reported that officers responded to the call at about 4 a.m. on Saturday. The officers say the man wore a satchel and was holding flares, the Seattle Times reported. Spokeswoman Loretta Cool told reporters that officers reported, “shots fired.” The officers then fired at the suspect, she said. When officers approached the man, they determined he had been shot and killed.
“Police fired on the man in a parking lot across from the facility, striking him fatally,” QFox 13 reported.

Thank you AOC and other Dems for inspiring and encouraging attacks on ICE. You don’t falsely characterize people as Nazis and expect no consequences for those you demonize. Will AOC tone down her rhetoric or ask her followers to refrain from violence?
Small grave, you mean. He was shot and killed. Must’ve been one of those right winger who hates Mexicans. If he was a left winger who hated ICE and the immigration process the story wouldn’t get any airtime. Surely we won’t be hearing how the left wingers “dog whistling” and agitation has inflamed leftists into acts of violence against the government will we?
Send his family a bill for the bullet.
You’re right.
Send his family a bill for the bullets.
[Well he’s dead....sooooo.]
Yep, LOL.
The article says he was fatally shot. They can’t fine him now, can they?
They’ll take the pennies off his eyes.
Send his family a billet for the bulls.
Yeah, it doesn’t look like it worked out too well for the liberal terrorist.
It was a Bernie supporter who attacked Scalise and other Reps at a baseball field. He lost his life as well in a shootout with the police. The Dems love to cite Charlottesville. The Reps need to go after the incendiary rhetoric of the Dems that incite violence. There are numerous examples of the Left attacking Trump supporters. It has been a one way street.
Absolutely they can. And if we want to discourage crime around here, we better start cracking down on these thugs.
[story is being quickly buried by corrupt local media]
And elsewhere, too. I can confirm.
Send his family a bull for the bells.
They can’t cover it yet.
It takes time to Photoshop in a MAGA hat, scrub Facebook and delete Twitter accounts.
Well, they >>could<< fine him.
I doubt he’ll show up in person to pay the bill.
:o
“So he was shot down simply for expressing his views in a political protest, speaking truth to power, and giving voice to his outrage over the Presidency of Donald Trump. “
Damn! Humor so dry I had to put drops in my eyes after reading! Couldn’t even blink.
