One of the men goes for her phone. The other grabs at her hands. Ozturk screams. Shock and fear ripple through her voice. Two masked women join them, tugging at her backpack, peeling the straps from her shoulders. “I’m going somewhere, I need to call someone,” she pleads. “We’re the police. Relax,” one of the men says in response.

They surround her. Then, one by one, they pull their neck gaiters up to cover their faces. “You don’t look like police,” a voice off screen says. “Why are you hiding your faces?” The questions continue, but the figures don’t respond. Instead, they cuff Ozturk, cross the street, and put her in an unmarked SUV. She is gone.

    Why is the judge not arresting her captors for kidnapping at the least? If there are no charges then why is she being arrested? This is wrong on so many levels. If you think trump will not do the something to the rest of us you are mistaken. Just give him time. He will be doing it to American citizens as well.

      Definitely. Trump already wants to get rid of birthright citizenship going forward and has a lawsuit that has stopped his executive order. The MAGA goal is to be able to imprison and deport dissenters.

      Yeah but he’s going to do it slowly. Folks like me, trans woman. I know we’re next in line for Gitmo.
