911 Calls Released From I.C.E. Employee Who Tried To Report Attacks By Antifa In Portland


During the 6 week long siege of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement building in Portland, there were several times when unhinged protesters began threatening the employees who work in the building. 
You may recall one instance where the tolerant, far left lunatics spouted racial epithets at a black ICE employee. 
Since the bulk of the protest took place on city property, they were technically outside the jurisdiction of DHS/”Federal Protective Services,” so the employees had to call 911 and rely on local Portland police for protection. 
Except Mayor Ted Wheeler directed the police to stand down and let the protesters have free reign. 
Several ICE and DHS employees are now suing the city, citing a violation of 14th Amendment “equal protection under the law,” as police officers refused to render aid to the callers. 
A series of phone calls that one DHS/ICE employee made to 911 have now been made public. And you won’t believe how the guy was treated. His name has been censored, but he has a noticeable accent. 
He called 911 when protesters had surrounded his car as he was trying to leave work to pick up his daughter. After getting the location of the caller, the naive (or idiotic) dispatcher seems to have no clue that a giant protest has been taking place for weeks in the area, and seems confused about the whole situation, thinking that the ICE building is the IDA building (?). 
The guy explains that he’s trying to leave to pick up his daughter, and the dispatcher is asking why the protesters are surrounding him in his car. “Can you have the officers to hurry up, because they’re telling me they’re going to kill me” the guy explains to dispatch. 
“I think one of the gentleman has a knife in his waist…. He showed it to me and he’s telling me he’s going to kill me,” he says, before giving a description of the guy. 
The dispatcher pretty much tells the caller to hang out and do nothing. 
The same guy places a second call 7 minutes later, and he explains that he’s trapped and the protesters are trying to flatten his tires. 
The dispatcher again seems to not be aware of the giant protest taking place, and explains to the guy that the police “are already on their way, and have been for a while.” She then advises the guy to call wherever his daughter is and tell them he will be late picking her up. 
Yes, this is for real. Not a sarcastic skit.
GO READ THE WHOLE THING.
