In ‘Operation Trojan Horse’, masked officers in unmarked vehicle arrest 16 people, despite court order halting raids

US border patrol agents carried out a raid outside a Home Depot in Los Angeles on Wednesday, with officers jumping out of an unmarked rental truck and chasing and arresting more than a dozen people.

Videos of the operation, and federal officials’ statements boasting about the detentions, have raised questions about whether the US government was complying with a federal court order halting indiscriminate raids in the region due to evidence of racial profiling. That ruling, upheld last week by an appeals court, followed reports of Latino US citizens getting swept up in LA raids and accounts of undocumented people being targeted based on their appearance and whether they spoke Spanish.

Sure, I suppose if you are looking to kill a truckload of immigrants. Otherwise, maybe dont assume any warm body must be ICE.
