ICE tactics in US cities under scrutiny as videos show forceful takedowns. The Trump administration's aggressive approach to undocumented immigration has raised concerns among human rights groups and civil liberties advocates.

According to a recent report, ICE officers are using tactics that critics say amount to "de facto detention," including using pepper spray on suspects, holding people in custody for hours or even days without access to food, water, or medical care, and subjecting them to physical restraints during transport.

The use of force by ICE officers has been documented in several videos posted online, showing officers making arrests, using pepper spray, and restraining individuals. These videos have sparked widespread outrage and calls for greater accountability from lawmakers and advocacy groups.

ICE officials argue that their tactics are necessary to maintain public safety and enforce immigration laws, but critics say they are often disproportionate and excessive, putting the lives of undocumented immigrants at risk.

Anna Schecter, a CBS News correspondent, examines the rules of engagement used by ICE officers in her report.
 
I'm really concerned about what's going on with these videos of ICE officers using forceful takedowns 🤯. It looks super aggressive and scary. I mean, who needs pepper spray or physical restraints just to take someone down? It's like they're trying to assert control rather than actually help people. And holding them in custody for hours without food or water? That's just cruel 😷.

I get that immigration laws need to be enforced, but do we really need to use tactics that could hurt people? Can't we find other ways to make sure everyone follows the rules? These videos are sparking some big conversations and I hope they lead to some real change. We need to prioritize treating people with dignity and respect, even if we don't agree with their immigration status 👥
 
OMG I'M SO SICKENED BY THESE VIDEOS OF ICE OFFICERS TAKING DOWN PEOPLE WITH PEPPER SPRAY AND RESTRAINTS!!!! 🚫😷 it's like they're not even following human rights 101!!! i mean, what's next? using tear gas on kids trying to cross the border? it's just so inhumane and unacceptable.

i don't know about you guys but every time i see something like this go down my heart sinks a little lower. how can we expect these officers to protect us if they're not even willing to follow basic guidelines for dealing with people who are scared and disoriented? it's all about power trips and making examples of people who just want to live their lives without fear.

can't we just find a way to treat everyone with dignity and respect, regardless of their immigration status?! 🤷‍♀️💖
 
man i cant believe this is still happening in 2025 we shouldve learned from history by now like what happened during the vietnam war and iraq all these tactics are just gonna lead to more bloodshed and lawsuits can't they just use some common sense and de-escalation techniques instead of resorting to pepper spray and physical restraints 🤦‍♂️ its not about being soft or permissive, its about treating ppl with dignity and respect 🙏
 
Ugh man these videos of ICE agents taking down people for no reason are straight up terrifying 🤯😱. I mean I know they're trying to enforce laws and all but come on using pepper spray on someone who's just walking down the street? That's crazy talk. And what's up with holding people in custody without basic human rights like food water and medical care? It's like, hello we're a country that prides itself on being civilized 🤦‍♂️.

And don't even get me started on the videos of them physically restraining people during transport... it's just wrong. I'm all for keeping our communities safe but you can't do that by putting innocent lives at risk. I hope someone looks into this and gets to the bottom of it because right now it's just plain messed up 😒.
 
I'm still trying to wrap my head around this 🤯... it's crazy to think that these tactics are being used on people who just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Like, what even is "de facto detention"? It sounds like a total abuse of power to me 😱. And can you believe they're using pepper spray and physical restraints? That's so not cool. I mean, I get that public safety is important, but come on... can't we find a way to do it without putting people's lives at risk? 🤷‍♀️
 
🤕 these ice tactics are seriously messed up! i cant believe they're using pepper spray on ppl who might not even be doing anything wrong theyre like cops but instead of police departments, its immigration and enforcement agencies who are supposed to uphold the law not break it
 
omg i cant even... these vids of ice officers making arrests and using pepper spray r so unsettling 🤯 theyre basically detaining ppl without access to basic human rights like food, water, or meds its like they think undocumented immigrants arent human beings lol what kinda "rules of engagement" r we talking about here? dont get me wrong, i get the need 4 border security but dis is just excessive 🚫 and who gets held accountable for these incidents?? i hope more ppl speak out against dis and demand change
 
I don't think we're seeing the whole picture here 😕. I mean, sure, these tactics might seem harsh on the surface, but what about all the people who are actually committing crimes and hurting innocent lives? We need to separate the signal from the noise and focus on keeping our communities safe 🚨. The Trump admin's approach might be aggressive, but it's not like they're targeting random civilians 👥. And as for these "human rights groups" complaining about detention conditions, shouldn't we be talking about the people who are breaking the law in the first place? 🤔 It's all about perspective and context, right? 📺
 
I'm totally on board with the Trump admin's aggressive approach to immigration 🤦‍♂️. I mean, who needs due process and human rights when it comes to keeping our streets safe? Those undocumented immigrants are just a bunch of lawbreakers, you know? 😒 They need to be held accountable for their actions.

And let's be real, if they can't even follow the rules themselves, why should we expect them to get special treatment just because they're "asylum seekers" or whatever? 🤷‍♂️ It's time to start taking a firmer stance on immigration and making America great again for everyone who follows the law.

I mean, sure, there are some videos out there that show ICE officers using force, but that's just part of the job. They're not all saints, you know? And if they have to use pepper spray or physical restraints to keep people safe, so be it. It's better than having them just walking around, causing harm to our communities.

Come on, people, get a grip. We need strong enforcement of immigration laws, not coddling these lawbreakers. 🚫
 
🚨 just watched that crazy vid of ice officer using pepper spray on someone who was like literally trying to walk away... what's up with these tactics? 🤯 they're like something outta a movie or somethin. and the part where they hold ppl in custody for days without food or water is straight outta hell 🔥 how can we expect people to be treated fairly if they dont even get basic human rights? 🤷‍♀️ ICE needs to rethink their approach, 'specially when it comes to non-violent enforcement. 🚫
 
The recent surge in footage showcasing aggressive tactics employed by ICE officers has brought to light a plethora of concerns surrounding the Trump administration's approach to immigration enforcement 🚨. The notion of "de facto detention" is a particularly disturbing one, as it highlights the blurred lines between law enforcement and imprisonment. It's disconcerting to see individuals subjected to pepper spray, prolonged physical restraint, and even neglect of basic human needs like food and water.

I think it's essential to acknowledge that these tactics are not only morally reprehensible but also raise questions about the efficacy of such methods in maintaining public safety 🤔. Research suggests that aggressive policing strategies often result in increased recidivism rates rather than reduced crime. Furthermore, the disproportionate impact on vulnerable populations cannot be ignored.

It's crucial for lawmakers and advocacy groups to scrutinize these tactics and advocate for reforms that prioritize humane treatment and proportionate responses to immigration-related offenses 💡. Only through such a lens can we work towards creating a more just and equitable system for all 🌎.
 
🤦‍♂️ I'm so frustrated with these videos of ICE officers using force to detain people. Like, what's going on here? They're not even following basic human rights norms. Using pepper spray on someone who's trying to make a living and can't afford a lawyer? That's just wrong. 🚫 And holding them in custody without food or water for days? That's torture, period. I don't care what the reasoning is behind these tactics, they need to change ASAP. We need to find better ways to address our immigration issues that don't put people's lives at risk. Can't we just talk this stuff out and find a solution that works for everyone? 🤝
 
OMG, can't believe what I'm watching unfold 😱... these videos are seriously disturbing! How can we expect law enforcement to maintain public safety when they're using tactics that feel more like a hostage situation than a police arrest? 🤯 Holding people without access to basic human needs is just not right. And have you seen those pepper spray situations? 🚫 It's like, what's the point of that?! Don't get me wrong, I'm all for keeping our communities safe, but this feels so... heavy-handed 🤝.

I mean, think about it, ICE officers are dealing with people who might not even be a threat to society. These are human beings, not just statistics or problems to solve 🌎. We need to take a step back and consider the human cost of our policies 🤝. I'm all for accountability, but let's make sure we're not just throwing up our hands and saying "oh well" when it comes to protecting the rights of marginalized communities 💕.
 
ICE is like the cool cop you don't want to mess with 😂. They're like, "I'm gonna use pepper spray on you and then lock you up for days... just saying." I mean, who needs that kind of chill? 🤣 It's like they think we're all just a bunch of law-breaking, deportable robots or something. 🤖 Newsflash: we got feelings too, ICE! 💔 And what's with the "public safety" excuse? Sounds like a fancy way of saying "we can do whatever we want and you'll never leave our sight." 🚫 Not impressed, ICE. Not impressed at all 👎
 
omg this is so disturbing i cant even watch those videos lol but seriously whats going on here ice officers are basically getting away with police brutality and its like nothing is being done about it the use of pepper spray and physical restraints is just crazy why do they need that kinda force? its not like undocumented immigrants are trying to hurt anyone.
 
OMG u guys I just saw this vid on twitter and it's literally heartbreaking 🤕 ICE agents are using pepper spray on ppl who dont even have a gun lol what is wrong with them?! 🤯 they're putting lives at risk for what? so they can deport people faster?! no way 🚫 I swear my cousin has a friend who was detained by ICE and he's still traumatized from the experience... it's like, hello humanity! 🙏 we should be helping ppl not hurting them 😩
 
just watched those videos of ICE officers tackling people on the ground and I gotta say it looks super aggressive 🤯 I mean I know they're trying to enforce the law but using pepper spray and physical restraints? that's just crazy talk 😲 don't get me wrong i think immigration is a complex issue but these tactics are just gonna push more ppl into hiding and make things worse 🤷‍♂️ also how do we even know what's happening in all those detention centers no transparency whatsoever 🚫 I guess the question is where does it end? when do we start talking about police brutality in a way that affects ICE officers too? 🤔
 
🤔 just watched that video where an ICE officer uses pepper spray on someone... it's so scary! 🚨 i think the use of force is way too much and it's not cool how they're treating these people like criminals without even knowing if they've done anything wrong. 🤷‍♀️ have you seen the way they restrain them? it looks super painful 😬

i think we need to talk about why this is happening in the first place... i mean, what's the point of enforcing immigration laws with such tactics? doesn't that just scare people away and make things worse? 🤔 it seems like a cycle of fear and mistrust.

anyway, i'm so glad these videos are coming out and exposing what's really going on. we need to hold our leaders accountable for how they're treating people... everyone deserves basic human rights, regardless of their immigration status! 💖
 
I'm totally against this new tactic from ICE 🚫👮‍♂️. I mean, can't they see that using pepper spray and physical restraints on people is just not right? It's like something out of a bad movie 🎥. And what about the hours or even days without food, water, or medical care? That's just cruel and inhumane 💔.

I'm all for keeping our cities safe, but you don't have to put lives at risk to do it 😕. These tactics are not only aggressive but also super unprofessional 👮‍♀️. I've seen some of those videos online and they're just disturbing 🤯. We need better training for ICE officers on how to handle situations without resorting to force.

And have you seen the number of people being detained without any due process? It's like a big game of musical chairs 🎶, except instead of chairs, it's people's lives 😩. We need some serious changes in our immigration laws and procedures, stat ⏰.
