美国公民自由联盟（ACLU）的一项投诉称，这对夫妇正在录制移民与海关执法局（ICE）特工时，特工追赶、围堵并损坏了他们的汽车。
An ACLU complaint says the couple was recording ICE agents when they chased, boxed in, and vandalized the couple's car.
移民与海关执法局（ICE）特工在本月早些时候俄勒冈州波特兰附近的一起事件中，刺破了正在录制特工的一对夫妇的轮胎。视频画面显示，特工随后开车离开，没有逮捕或与这对夫妇交谈。
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents slashed the tires of a couple who were recording the agents in an incident near Portland, Oregon, earlier this month. The agents then drove away without arresting or talking to the couple, video footage shows.
美国公民自由联盟（ACLU）今天公布了这段视频，称这只是ICE特工因受保护的第一修正案活动而报复他人的又一例证。ACLU和俄勒冈州ACLU代表匿名夫妇提交了一份行政投诉，要求国土安全部（DHS）调查并给出答复，说明特工为何尾随、围堵并“损坏”了一名美国公民的车辆。这段令人震惊的视频与任何正常的执法行为都不相似：“我们遇到的情况并非个例，这才是最可怕的地方，”匿名夫妇A.P.和M.P.在ACLU提供的一份声明中表示。
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), which released the footage today, says it is yet another example of ICE agents retaliating against people for protected First Amendment activity. In an administrative complaint on behalf of the anonymous couple, the ACLU and the ACLU of Oregon are demanding an investigation and answers from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) about why agents tailed, boxed in, and "vandalized" the vehicle of a U.S. citizen. The stunning video does not resemble any sort of normal law enforcement: "What happened to us is not unique, and that is what is so terrifying," A.P. and M.P., the unnamed husband and wife, said in a statement provided by the ACLU.
“我们观察并记录公开的ICE活动，旨在曝光他们的滥用行为，并记录我们政府在做什么。正因如此，他们正在恐吓我们以及任何敢于行使第一修正案权利、要求政府负责的人。我们希望分享我们的故事，能引起人们对他们对我们社区进行的鲁莽且违宪攻击的关注。”根据ACLU的投诉，这对匿名夫妇于10月7日上午在俄勒冈州希尔斯伯勒驾车时，发现了一辆ICE SUV。
"We observe and record public ICE activity in order to shine a light on their abusive behavior and to create a record of what our government is up to. Because of that, they are terrorizing us and anyone else who dares to exercise their First Amendment right to hold our government accountable. We hope that sharing our story will bring attention to their reckless and unconstitutional attacks on our communities." According to the ACLU complaint, the unnamed married couple was driving in Hillsboro, Oregon, on the morning of October 7 when they spotted an ICE SUV.
夫妇俩跟随SUV来到一家超市的停车场，那里还有另外两辆ICE车辆。夫妇俩摇下车窗，开始大喊“这是ICE！这是ICE！”，同时吹口哨并按响汽车喇叭。
The couple followed the SUV to a supermarket parking lot, where there were also two other ICE vehicles. The couple lowered their windows and began yelling "This is ICE! This is ICE!" as well as blowing whistles and honking the car's horn.
一名ICE特工抓起一辆购物车，开始朝这对夫妇的车靠近。投诉称，这对夫妇听到该特工说了一句大意是“用购物车把他们堵住”的话。当这对夫妇开始驾车离开时，几名ICE特工开始徒步追赶他们。
One ICE agent grabbed a shopping cart and began approaching the couple's car. The complaint states that the couple heard the agent say something to the effect of, "Let's block them in with the cart." As the couple began driving away, several ICE agents began chasing after them on foot.
投诉称，这对夫妇离开停车场后，三辆ICE车辆开始追逐，车辆“驾驶激进，差点与他们的车相撞”。额外的视频显示，ICE车辆在夫妇的车前猛烈变道，随后试图将其车辆困住但未成功。“在这一系列事件的整个过程中，没有一辆ICE车辆开启闪烁灯或警笛，”投诉称。
The three ICE vehicles chased the couple after they left the parking lot, "driving aggressively and nearly colliding into" their car, according to the complaint. Additional video shows the ICE vehicles swerving aggressively in front of the couple's car and later unsuccessfully attempting to box in their car. "None of the ICE vehicles had their flashing lights or sirens on during this entire sequence of events," the complaint states.
这对夫妇穿过一个空旷的停车场，追逐又在几条街道上持续进行，直到ICE车辆开启了紧急灯和警笛。根据投诉，这对夫妇又驾驶了大约一分钟，因为害怕在没有旁观者的空旷路边停车而不敢靠边。
The couple cut through an empty parking lot, and the chase continued down several more streets before the ICE vehicles turned on their emergency lights and sirens. According to the complaint, the couple continued driving for roughly a minute, fearing to pull over on an empty road with no bystanders.
视频显示，当他们在红灯处停下时，一名戴面具的ICE特工下车，走到夫妇的车旁，用刀刺穿了其中一个后轮胎，然后走回自己的车。夫妇的车缓慢向前行驶，进入转弯车道后再次停下。随后，同一名特工再次下车，第二次刺穿了轮胎，然后回到自己的车，没有试图与夫妇交谈。
Video shows that when they stopped at a traffic light, a masked ICE agent exited his vehicle, walked up to the couple's car, stabbed one of its rear tires with a knife, and then walked back to his car. The couple's car moved slowly forward and into a turn lane before stopping again. Then the same agent got back out of his vehicle and stabbed the tire a second time before returning to his vehicle without attempting to speak to the couple.
“三辆ICE车辆都关闭了闪烁灯和警笛，驾车离开了，”ACLU的投诉称。
"All three ICE vehicles turned off their flashing lights and sirens and drove off," the ACLU complaint states.
投诉指出，这对夫妇“经历了与全国许多从事同一受第一修正案保护活动的个人所经历的报复性行动类似的情况”。“特别是，全国各地的个人报告称，在观察、收集有关信息以及记录移民与海关执法局（ICE）特工在公共场所执行任务后，他们同样遭到跟踪、包围以及暴力威胁或遭受暴力，”投诉称。
The complaint notes that the couple "experienced retaliatory action similar to that experienced by many other individuals across the country engaged in these same First Amendment protected activities." "In particular, individuals around the country have reported being similarly tailed, boxed in, and threatened with or subjected to violence after observing, gathering information about, and recording ICE agents performing their duties in public," the complaint states.
去年10月，波特兰地区的ICE特工砸碎了一名正在拍摄他们的美国公民的汽车车窗，将她从车内拖出，并将其拘留了大约七个小时，随后在未提起指控的情况下将其释放。
Last October, ICE agents in the Portland area busted out the car windows of a U.S. citizen who had been filming them, dragged her out of her vehicle, and detained her for roughly seven hours before releasing her without charges.
田纳西州美国公民自由联盟（ACLU）于5月对孟菲斯的一个联邦执法特遣队提起集体诉讼，指控其骚扰法律观察员。孟菲斯居民在声明中称，他们遭到暴力逮捕、在家中受到监视、以虚假借口被拦截，并因试图拍摄该特遣队而被监禁。9月，田纳西州美国公民自由联盟发布视频，显示联邦特工在该诉讼的首席原告试图拍摄特遣队行动时将其逮捕。
The ACLU of Tennessee filed a class-action lawsuit in May against a federal law enforcement task force in Memphis for harassing legal observers. Memphis residents allege in declarations that they have been violently arrested, surveilled at their houses, pulled over under false pretenses, and jailed for trying to film the task force. In September, the ACLU of Tennessee published videos showing federal agents arresting the lead plaintiff in its lawsuit while he was attempting to film task force operations.
国土安全部和移民官员多次指责摄像师和法律观察员妨碍司法公正和“曝光个人信息”，但公民自由倡导者表示，国土安全部关于法律的说法完全错误：迄今为止，所有审议过此问题的九个联邦上诉法院均坚定维护了在公共场所记录执法人员的权利。
DHS and immigration officers have repeatedly accused videographers and legal observers of obstruction of justice and "doxxing," but civil liberties advocates say the DHS is flat wrong about the law: Every federal appeals court that has considered the issue—nine so far—has firmly upheld the right to record law enforcement in public.
最高法院也明确维护了第一修正案赋予的批评或反对警察活动的权利，无论是通过言语还是其他表达性活动。
The Supreme Court has also unequivocally upheld the First Amendment right to criticize or oppose police activity, whether verbally or through other expressive activity.
“记录公共可见执法活动的权利对我们的民主至关重要，”美国公民自由联盟言论、隐私与技术项目高级律师斯卡莱特·金在一份新闻稿中表示。“像全国许多人一样，我们的当事人一直在观察并记录其社区内的ICE活动。这些视频在揭露ICE的滥用行为方面起到了关键作用。如果我们无法看到并记录本国政府在我们街道上所做的一切，我们就无法让它为践踏我们的权利负责。”
"The right to record publicly visible law enforcement activity is fundamental to our democracy," Scarlet Kim, senior staff attorney with the ACLU's Speech, Privacy, and Technology Project, said in a press release. "Like many people across the country, our clients have been observing and recording ICE activity in their community. These videos have proven critical to exposing ICE's abuses. If we cannot see and document what our own government is doing on our streets, we cannot hold it accountable for running roughshod over our rights."
美国公民自由联盟向国土安全部监察长办公室及另外两个国土安全部监督办公室提交的投诉要求，识别、调查并处理涉及该事件的特工。美国公民自由联盟还要求对“ICE特工对观察、收集有关ICE活动信息并记录ICE活动的个人进行报复的令人不安的模式”进行“全面调查”。国土安全部未立即回应置评请求。
The ACLU complaint to the DHS Office of Inspector General and two other DHS oversight offices demands that the agents involved in the incident be identified, investigated, and disciplined. The ACLU is also requesting a "comprehensive investigation of a disturbing pattern of ICE agents retaliating against individuals who observe, gather information about, and record ICE activity." The DHS did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
