Long Beach California Mayor, Rogelio Martinez, Calls For 55 Local Gangs To Come Together And Confront ICE

A Long Beach mayoral candidate is drawing intense scrutiny after issuing what critics describe as a reckless and potentially dangerous call for gang involvement in opposing federal immigration enforcement.

Rogelio Martinez, who is running for mayor of Long Beach, California, posted a statement urging local gang leaders to mobilize against Immigration and Customs Enforcement as part of his push to make the city “ICE free.” In the message, Martinez explicitly called on gangs to organize and appear in person at City Hall, language that opponents say amounts to an invitation for confrontation with federal authorities.

“I am calling every gang leader in Long Beach to help me take back the city,” Martinez wrote. “Long Beach needs to be ICE FREE. I need your strength, support and leadership. If you love Long Beach like I do let’s show the world what COMMUNITY looks like. I expect to see 55 gang leaders in front of City Hall this Monday at 5pm.”

According to critics, Martinez’s call was not vague or symbolic. He specifically targeted Latino, Cambodian, Filipino, Black, and Pacific Islander gangs, urging them to meet in person to plan what he described as resistance to ICE operations in the city.

"I expect to see 55 gang leaders in front of City Hall this Monday at 5pm.”

That should make ICE's job easier...

Watch his words...if he advocates the use of violence to interfere with lawful activities he will have committed Seditious Conspiracy under 18 U.S.C. § 2384. It occurs when two or more people conspire to use force to overthrow the government, oppose its authority, or hinder the execution of any federal law.

These people need to be arrested for insurrection and jailed.

No cashless bail.

Looks like the Messican are getting ready to take Long Beach. The war is about to start. This time, lets drive their asses into the Gulf of America. We’ve got all their military age males already here. There’s not much Mexico can do without American money coming in.

Is he the mayor or is he a candidate running for mayor, or both?

Candidate for mayor.
Hopefully, this is as far as he goes.
Very dangerous attitude. Too much of a Gang/ Drug Cartel Led Society one would find in the bowels of Mexico.

ICE should offer them free Super Bowl tickets. That works every time.

Time to charge the Martinez boy with a little insurrection. Throw his azz in Alligator Alcatraz with his illegal alien neighbors. Throw his 50 Messican gangs in jail with him.

I see a great opportunity here for FBI’s gang task force.

Perhaps have ICE put out a tweet stating that any rumor that the mayor is actually a secret informant to the Feds is a lie and that any gang member should not be worried.

We don’t arrest. Pam just sent a sternly worded letter to people to stop fraud or they will have to face her wrath of having to stand in the corner for 20 minutes.

Every time I watch her, she sounds like she has to go pee.

Considering it looks like Trump has now backed down from Iran and anti-ICE maniacs, it will just get worse.
