Couple alleges racial profiling in Border Patrol stop they recorded on video

A couple detained by Border Patrol in Boulevard said they believed agents did not have reasonable suspicion to stop them at all, recording the interaction and alleging they were racially profiled, pulled over by an unmarked vehicle as they were scoping out campsites on their way to the dentist.

George and Esmeralda Doilez are U.S. citizens who live in Brawley and were headed to a dental appointment in North County on Wednesday. They said they were exploring Jacumba and the surrounding area for the first time when a dark-colored SUV started following them near McCain Valley Recreation Area, then put on a siren and pulled them over.

“Terrified, terrified, absolutely terrified,” George told NBC 7 on Thursday. “As a husband, you're seeing your wife, you know, shaking and crying. Your natural instinct is: I got to do something to protect her. And then what is this going to lead to? In my mind, I'm thinking of so many things, OK? If I fight these guys, I'm going to lose. I could get killed out here. But why should I allow them to trample on my Constitutional rights? Why should I allow them to get away with this kind of stuff?”

George and Esmeralda said they both voted for the first time in 2020, and then again in 2024 – both times for President Donald Trump. They said, as they’ve watched his mass deportation effort unfold in immigration court and at workplaces, seeing the majority of people detained without a violent criminal record, they both have come to regret their votes. “I feel shame, guilt and anger at the same time because of the promises that he made that he lied to us about, going after the worst of the worst,” George said. “He lied on those and he stole our vote.”

THESE WERE trump VOTERS - now regretting what they voted for. A truly horrifying incident.

[Ocelot II]

1. They narrowly escaped the face-eating leopards they voted for.

[LisaL]

3. For now.

There could very well be many such incidents in their future. And they voted for it.

[Strelnikov_]

33. Leopards are persistent

[AnotherMother4Peace]

4. Well said.

[JMCKUSICK]

2. Right, because there's literally millions of people

who, despite libraries worth of proof that he's a pathological liar, still believe what he says like it was Obama talking.
Fuck them and the joy they got up until it happened to them.
They still can't fathom that so many people are experiencing that same petrified state every time they step outside.
too bad they didn't get the full weeklong experience, you know having to eat meals on your knees with the plate on the floor in front of them etc...

[AnotherMother4Peace]

5. This couple is from Brawley where trump loving churches are everywhere. Brawley is in the Imperial

Valley, is 80% Hispanic, conservative, religious, and realizing that trump hates them. Trump/Putin targeted Preachers & Mega Preachers early with bribes, lies, promises, and special attention to get them to sway their congregations to trump. Putin would arrange trips to Russia for some of these Preachers, promising them help with missions and help with Christian conversions, and money - This is from a conversation I had with a Preacher's daughter. She was changing her major to "Russian Language" ......

Not excusing this couples vote and support of trump, just helping to explain it.

[JMCKUSICK]

7. Thank you for adding that important context

and background information AnotherMother4Peace.

[electric_blue68]

25. Wow. Important, scary details.

[electric_blue68]

27. I think you should make this Info into an OP. This is Really directly Meddling, imho, w people....

Important to know.

[DBoon]

35. That would make an excellent OP

Putin cultivating fundie churches with trips to Russia, etc.

[Midnight Writer]

6. Jesus wept. None are so blind as those who will not see.

[JMCKUSICK]

8. Perfect Midnight Writer.

[AnotherMother4Peace]

12. Jesus is weeping because so many people are blinded by a false God. Mind control cults are like that.

Churches, mega Churches, & Preachers were corrupted early in the Putin/trump playbook: Bribes, promises, lies, special treatment, televangelists, money, and trips to Russia to "save the Russian people". "killing babies" (abortion) was their big rallying cry - mind control, peer pressure, and coercion was/is being applied to traditional congregations - Cult think is a frightening thing.

I was raised a Catholic, my father fought the Nazis in WW2, my family sacrificed for the good of the country. We helped our neighbors w/church activities, we celebrated Science & all rode the bus to get the polio vaccine. No it wasn't perfect, but my Catholic church taught me that we are all God's children and to help make life better for all.

9. I'm glad they suffered a consequence of their votes.

I've gotten very mean this way.

Trump didn't "steal their votes." They chose to believe a proven liar, a convicted felon, a terrible president in his first term, and an obvious con artist whose businesses were scams.

They CHOSE to vote for this and now they're surprised.

Fuck them.

[AnotherMother4Peace]

14. "...they suffered a consequence of their votes." Yes, well said. I'm glad they contacted

the local news and are spreading the word publicly as a warning. Former cult members who speak out will help others see the light.

AND I don't think you've gotten "very mean this way". Those who have voted for trump twice is the reason so many died of Covid, why RFK, jr is fucking with our health care, etc. etc. Why families are divided, why I no longer see my beloved nieces. I don't think it's "mean" at all to fault trumpsters, but I am glad when they start speaking out.

[Prof. Toru Tanaka]

19. I'm 100% in agreement with your post.

I have no sympathy to give to this dumbass couple- just two middle fingers. Thanks to the votes of people these two, ALL Americans have to deal with Trump and his shit for years. So fuck them and their regrets- elections have consequences!

[DBoon]

36. Like the people who were publicly anti-Covid vaccine and anti-masking

and then ended up in an intensive care unit for a disease they thought was a "woke" hoax

[Gingermolly]

10. Cry me a river

How many of these non-thinkers are there?

[BradBo]

11. Voted for Trump, pathetic.

[Mblaze]

13. What he promised, and what gained their vote,

Is exactly what he is doing. When did Trump ever say he was going to respect asylum seekers? He always said that he was going to rid America of "illegal aliens" because they are criminals, drug dealers, prisoners and insane people whose country is sending them to America. Did they think he had a list and would carefully sift through resident Latinos?

Trump told them that Project 2025 was bad, he really doesn't even know what it is and he would never put it into action - but here we are.

I'm not sure where these FAFO Trump voters were getting their information. Perhaps they should review that before the next election.

[llmart]

16. They get their information from their church leaders.

So much easier than thinking and forming an opinion for yourself. That might require reading once in awhile.

[sprinkleeninow]

21. In the Orthodox Christian Church, even mentioning anything remotely regarding a political party is ANATHEMA! nt

[SunSeeker]

31. My guess is he gets his info from Fox. He is virulently antivax and antimask.

He wrote a letter to the editor in 2021 complaining that he was being discriminated against because he refused to where a mask or get vaccinated. He apparently lost his union job at Vons grocery stores over it.

[LeftInTX]

34. I couldn't help but notice his neck tatoos and lack of accent.

Likely born in the US and did some time. (Churches are full of them and many convicted felons are Trump voters for some reason)
May not not have been voting for awhile

[JustAnotherGen]

15. Yeah well anyways

I have to cut my toenails and then wash out the garbage can.

[AnotherMother4Peace]

22. Is their remorse self-serving? Probably. They're finding out trump hates brown people. That they are the

"dirty, immigrants" trump/miller was talking about. That they are not special. Is there some self-loathing going on? They aren't really like those "brown people" trump refers to - they are special. Sure sounds like Nazism to me.

Yeah, it's difficult to feel sorry for this type of thinking or these people. I hope they're waking up, and I'm glad they're spreading the word. This is what he said to NBC San Diego: “I feel shame, guilt and anger at the same time because of the promises that he made that he lied to us about, going after the worst of the worst,” George said. “He lied on those and he stole our vote.”

[JustAnotherGen]

29. He didn't lie to them

They chose white supremacy.

[KT2000]

17. lost me at "voted for trump twice"

[sprinkleeninow]

18. Sowing and reaping, in a way so to speak. nt

[Buddyzbuddy]

20. He showed you who he is way before you voted for him.

You deserve EVERY bad emotion you experienced and more. Too bad they didn't give you the beatings you so richly deserve for having the gall to be brown in America. Oh I forgot, you think you're the "good ones".

Pregnant women and their children being dragged out of cars by masked thugs. A rich racist a-hole telling you that Mexicans are rapists and murderers and you decide, yeah, that's the guy I want to vote for. Please, please, whatever you do, don't have children, the stupidity will be multiplied ten fold.

We're out here fighting for your rights and protections but at least you had the free choice of putting a Felon that should be in prison, back into the Whitehouse.

[DFW]

23. We told them, pleaded with them, went down on our knees before them

They told us no, that we were wrong, that they and their candidate were the true patriots.

If they are still here, and still mobile enough to do so, let THEM now get on their knees before US. Yes, we will welcome those of them who truly are remorseful voters, because they will be the best ones to tell their friends how wrong they were, and to never vote that way again. Someone has to tell the people in their communities that their preachers were wrong, ARE wrong, and are misleading them, and those people will never believe it coming from us.

Reublicans have taught these people to be as selfish as the Republicans, themselves, are. It never occurred to them that we were advocating not only for our own rights, but for theirs as well. If it’s not too late, maybe some of them will spread the word.

[AnotherMother4Peace]

24. REC - An important point you made: "...they will be the best ones to tell

their friends how wrong they were, and to never vote that way again. Someone has to tell the people in their communities that their preachers were wrong, ARE wrong, and are misleading them, and those people will never believe it coming from us."

Much unforgivable damage has been done by those who propped up trump - deaths, torture, etc. - It is difficult to understand or forgive. Many notorious cults have lost members who are now speaking up, and some members who are not. They are too embarrassed or afraid to speak up. The more trumpsters that speak up the better.

much respect DFW

[DFW]

26. Thanks for noticing

Gloating makes us feel good. Enlisting these people as allies (to the extent we can) will make THEM feel good. A cause to believe in is often a powerful remedy for a betrayal.

28. Decisions have consequences but here's some advice

Tough shit; chew harder!

[SunSeeker]

30. In 2021, Doilez wrote a LTE re being discriminated against because of his antivax & antimask views.

https://www.thedesertreview.com/opinion/letters_to_editor/mask-discrimination-endangers-family/article_4c39c10a-2c6c-11ec-9556-5f58f3123931.html

He sounds truly stupid, which could explain his Trump votes.

32. Latinos for Mierda47, are idiots. And I've told them to their face ...

I live 7 miles from the US/Mexico border in Chula Vista.
I've had many Latinos tell me they voted for Mierda47, and I immediately responded with "You're an idiot".
I honestly don't care how offended they are.
