In the third and final dashcam video, recorded at 8.42am, an Ice officer breaks through the driver’s side window of the car. Khanbabazadeh can be heard saying, “I am getting out,” to which a masked Ice agent replies: “Well, you should have done it already.”

In the final video, taken by a bystander, Ice agents handcuff Khanbabazadeh while he is pressed up against his car. Khanbabazadeh can be heard saying, “I’m Iranian, I don’t know why they are doing this. I am a doctor,” while the bystander says, “No one here will identify themselves.”

Masked terrorist kidnappers loyal to Donald Trump. They don't even dare show their faces. The lowest of lowlife, cowardliest of cowards.

If they don't need to identity themselves, then I am ICE, you are ICE, we are all unidentified agents that are above the law where no due process exists nor is necessary.

Chiropractors aren't doctors, but that's besides the point. They fucking arrested a father who was picking up his daughter from day care.

Masked people with guns are criminals. Shoot first

I see they’re expanding their definition of brown people.

We need to start shooting anyone who looks and acts like a kidnapper.

No ID? No existence.
