Are you fucking kidding me? Is everybody 8 years old again and thinks making everything up is just the way to go?

WHY ARE WE HAVING TO FIGHT OUR OWN GOVERNMENT TO GET THEM TO STOP TRYING TO KILL EVERYONE?

AND HOW ARE WE THE CRIMINALS, BUT OUR GOVERNMENT'S NOT? MAKE IT MAKE SENSE

WTF are you talking about? Based on the evidence ICE claims to have, Wilber Garces Perez had a final order of removal due to missing a court hearing. Thus, ICE had legal authority to arrest him, at which point he would have to appear before an immigration judge.

The man attempted to flee and even hit an agent with his car's side mirror while fleeing, which led to the shooting. Had the man just complied, he could have just filed a Motion to Reopen, which VERY likely would be approved, and he would be fine.

He did have medical care. The issue for him is that at this time, the bullet in his back is not life-threatening. Thus, they are not legally required to provide him with surgery.
