Pro­test­ers against im­mi­gra­tion en­force­ment took to the streets in cities and towns across the coun­try on Sat­ur­day af­ter one fed­er­al of­fi­cer fa­tal­ly shot a woman in Min­neapo­lis and an­oth­er shot and wound­ed two peo­ple in Port­land, Ore­gon.

The demon­stra­tions come as the U.S. De­part­ment of Home­land Se­cu­ri­ty push­es for­ward in the Twin Cities with what it calls its biggest-ever im­mi­gra­tion en­force­ment op­er­a­tion. Pres­i­dent Don­ald Trump’s ad­min­is­tra­tion has said both shoot­ings were acts of self-de­fence against dri­vers who “weaponized” their ve­hi­cles to at­tack of­fi­cers.

Steven Eu­banks, 51, said he felt com­pelled to get out of his com­fort zone and at­tend a Sat­ur­day protest in Durham, North Car­oli­na, be­cause of what he called the “hor­ri­fy­ing” killing in Min­neapo­lis.
