A left-wing TikTok user urged his followers to “get violent” and to “kill” United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in a video that rapidly spread across social media Monday.
Resistance to ICE enforcement has grown more and more violent nationwide, with agents fired on and targeted in multiple states amid increasingly heated rhetoric. Tensions have only escalated further in the wake of Wednesday’s fatal shooting of Minnesota resident Renee Nicole Good by an ICE agent during an enforcement operation in Minneapolis.
The TikTok user, who posts under the username monkeydbeans0 and uses they/them/theirs pronouns, said ICE agents are just mall cops and Proud Boys and cited Good’s death as justification for his call to murder federal agents.
“I’m just going to come out and say it. I don’t really care about the consequences anymore. I don’t care. We need to kill these people,” the green-haired TikTok user said. “There’s — there’s just no alternative.”

“I don’t care if you say, oh, I’ve got the crazy eyes, whatever,” the user continued. “Yeah, I do feel crazy, because we’ve had three people die in 72 hours and we’ve had over, almost 30 die since — in the last year to a group of ‘law enforcement’ that is basically just buffed up mall cops, right, who are gun-triggering happy Proud Boys. Let’s call them what they are, it’s the Proud Boys. Why do you think we didn’t hear about them? Any of you heard about the Proud Boys all year? Suddenly no more Nazi marches, None of that shit. Right. There we go. They’re Nazis.”
ICE agents have been attacked by assailants who used cars to ram vehicles ten times from Jan. 4 to 10, according to Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin.
The Department of Homeland Security said in a Sept. 26 post on X that an ICE facility in Broadview, Illinois had come under multiple violent attacks. In Portland, Oregon, violent protesters attacked conservative journalists covering the riots and allegedly planned to use lasers against aircraft operated by federal law enforcement agencies.
Two people were killed during a shooting at an ICE office in Dallas on Sept. 24, with the gunman committing suicide. In Texas, shots were fired at ICE and Border Patrol facilities in July, with ten people being charged with attempted murder in connection with the incident in Alvarado, Texas.
“The only way to stop this shit, let’s be honest, is going to be to get violent. We got to get violent, people. And I’m tired of denying it and I’m tired of you all being pussies about it,” the user said. “Grow up! We’re not going to get through this holding hands. Peaceful protest only works if your enemy has a moral obligation to listen to it. They have none! You guys are sitting there, holding up fucking signs and saying, ‘Oh, I’m mad at you.’ You’re pathetic! Burn something!”
