CARL HIGBIE (HOST): This is like one of these things. They're dancing around the nuances and then they're like, oh, people got violent. I don't know why.
CHARLES MARINO (GUEST): Yeah, look at the side that they take when they talk about ICE enforcing the laws. Right? They're kidnappers, they're, you know, they're Nazis. All this rhetoric that incites these far-left leaning, compromised mentally people in their communities that then get behind the wheel of a car and they're surprised when they try and run over an ICE agent. You know, they're causing these situations, you know.
By the way, this shooting is justified all day long. Twice on Sunday, I did the last department wide review in DHS of use of force policies and this is what we call a no-brainer. When someone uses a car to try and seriously harm or kill a federal law enforcement officer, deadly force is justified. And I'm tired of hearing, you know, this is tragic that somebody lost their life —
HIGBIE: It's not.
MARINO: Look, if the choice is between that lady and an ICE officer that wants to go home to their family just because they're doing their jobs, I want that officer to come out on the right side of this all day long.
HIGBIE: Yeah. No, I'm totally with you. I don't lose any sleep for this woman because she seemed crazy.
