BREAKING: ICE guard who rammed peaceful protesters with his truck, on video, has resigned.

Thomas Woodworth should have been fired. He should be under arrest.




JUST IN: The Wyatt says Correctional Officer Captain Thomas Woodworth has resigned as the AG’s Office investigates why he drove a truck into a group of protesters Wednesday night. This photo was sent to us by protest organizers. @wpri12

where you are allowed to "resign" after driving a truck through protestors, instead of being hauled away in chains.

Lots of charges.

And he should be retroactivly fired so that he doesn't get any pension or benefits.

Fox Business Network host Lou Dobbs on Thursday applauded the driver who purposely ran his vehicle through a crowd of protesters at an ICE facility, saying the man was well “within his rights” to plow through the crowd.

During a Wednesday night protest at the Donald W. Wyatt Detention Facility in Rhode Island, several demonstrators were injured when a black pickup truck drove into a group of protesters who were blocking the facility parking lot’s entrance. According to protest organizers, a 64-year-old man suffered a broken leg and internal bleeding.
