00:00Welcome back.
00:01A day after a woman was shot and killed by an immigration and customs enforcement officer
00:07in Minneapolis, Border Patrol agents left two injured in a similar incident in Portland,
00:12Oregon, sparking protests in the city.
00:15Dozens of people gathered outside the Portland ice facility on Thursday night, hours after
00:20the federal agents fired at two people they claimed were linked to criminal groups.
00:25Demonstrators gathered in condemnation of the anti-migrant policies of the Donald Trump
00:29administration demanding for ice to leave the city, saying it is federal law enforcement
00:34agencies that are escalating tensions and violence in the streets.
00:38In this scenario, Portland Mayor Keith Wilson is calling for a halt to ice operations in
00:44the city.
00:45These are not statistics, these are human beings.
00:53Portland is not a training ground for militarized agents.
00:58When the administration talks about using full force, we are seeing what it means on our
01:06streets.
01:07The consequences are not abstract.
01:10They are felt in hospital rooms and living rooms in the quiet moments when families try
01:15to make sense of what happened, what is happening.
01:19We know what the federal government says happened here.
01:22There was a time when we could take them at their word.
01:26That time is long past.
01:29That is why we are calling on ice to halt all operations in Portland until a full and independent
01:35investigation can take place.
01:38Our community deserves answers.
01:40Our community deserves accountability.
01:43And most of all, our community deserves...
01:45DR.
