Man Stopped By Border Patrol Voices Guilt About Voting For Trump, Joins Lawsuit
HuffPost
"I believe I was attacked because I was walking while brown,” the ex-Trump supporter said.
A California man who alleges border patrol agents racially profiled him during a stop in June said in a story Monday that he feels guilty about voting for President Donald Trump in the last presidential election.
“I truly believe I was targeted because of my race,” Jason Brian Gavidia told NBC affiliate KNBC on Monday. “I believe I was racially profiled. I believe I was attacked because I was walking while brown. Where is the freedom? Where is the justice? We live in America.”
Gavidia is one of five people represented in a class action lawsuit by the ACLU of Southern California accusing the Trump administration of racially profiling people while conducting immigration enforcement activities.
Last month, a federal judge ordered the Trump administration to stop indiscriminate immigration stops and arrests in seven California counties. However, the administration petitioned the Supreme Court last week to lift the order.
A video taken on June 12 and published by the Los Angeles Times days later shows two masked border patrol agents in sunglasses pushing Gavidia against a metal gated fence outside a tow yard.
