ICE arrests and anything involving these thugs is either outrageous or heartbreaking, or, in the worst-case scenario, both. We’ve seen numerous instances of these alleged agents using extreme force and violence to arrest only one person, with the ultimate goal of scaring people.
Unfortunately, one mother in San Antonio, Texas, experienced this, and it was one of the most heartbreaking situations we’ve witnessed. After appearing in immigration court, this woman was detained by officers, and she began crying and screaming for her children, who would be left without a mother.
A woman cries out for her son as she’s arrested by ICE outside an immigration court in San Antonio. This is happening in America—right now.Is this what safety looks like? Is this what justice looks like? It’s heartbreaking. It’s inhumane. And it’s not how America should work. 📞 Contact your representatives. 💸 Donate to organizations helping immigrants. 🗳️ Stay loud.

TikTok user Dave Won’t Shut Up! posted the video to his account. According to the video, this mother attended an immigration court in San Antonio. Instead of receiving assistance or a way to remain in the country, ICE arrested her.
According to the author, “this woman was manhandled and arrested by those three very tough men.” The three agents were trying to move the woman into the back of the truck when she began screaming. She says, “Mis hijos están en la escuela,” or “My children are at school.”
The video is cut short, but we imagine ICE detained this poor San Antonio mother, leaving the children alone without her. This is just one of many cases in which the recent administration has separated families across the country.
As you can imagine, many TikTok users had something to say about this heartbreaking situation.
“My heart hurts. How did America become evil?” – Nonameneeded234 via TikTok.
“Cruelty is part of this administration’s plan.” – MrGuy via TikTok.
“I cannot believe that this is what America has become.” – catmom via TikTok.
The even more tragic aspect of this situation is that it appears this mother was not the only one in this San Antonio immigration court. According to the video, authorities detained additional people.
The heartbreaking part is that the authorities do not give these people a fair chance to get their affairs in order. Ultimately, we can only hope that this woman and her children are safe.
