Billie Eilish recently made waves by sharing posts on her Instagram Story that criticized ICE, calling them a "terrorist group" after a woman was fatally shot in Minneapolis. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) quickly responded, defending their actions.
They pointed out that new footage shows the woman, Renee Nicole Good, was driving towards officers, putting their lives at risk. The DHS claims that officer Jonathan Ross acted in self-defense. They also mentioned that ICE does not separate families but instead works with parents to find safe places for their children.
Eilish did not directly comment on the incident but shared posts from others. These posts accused ICE of tearing apart families and called for the arrest of the officer involved. Many people, including other artists and the Minneapolis mayor, have also spoken out against ICE's actions.
The DHS argues that negative rhetoric, like Eilish's, has led to more attacks on law enforcement. They say there has been a huge increase in assaults and vehicle rammings against officers. Meanwhile, protests and outrage continue to grow in response to the shooting and ICE's operations.
