WTF Moment: California Vice Mayor Calls For Gangs To Rise And Fight ICE Officers!

Imagine you’re a small-city official—say, vice mayor of Cudahy, California—tasked with calming your community about ICE raids. 

What do you do? Issue a press release? Hold a town hall? 

Not Vice Mayor Cynthia Gonzalez. Instead, she posted a video aimed at gang members that basically boils down to:

“You guys tag everything up, claiming hood, and now that your hood’s being invaded by the biggest gang there is, there ain’t a peep out of you.”

Yes, you read that right. The vice mayor of Cudahy, California just summoned gangs to rise up and fight in her city!

In a now-deleted social-media clip, Vice Mayor Gonzalez directly called on notorious street gangs 18th Street and Florence to “step up” against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. 

Cue the DHS Statement
Unsurprisingly, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) labeled Gonzalez’s remarks “despicable,” warning that cheering on the “vicious 18th Street gang” to assault federal officers will only fuel attacks on ICE agents. 

In their post on X, DHS reminded everyone bluntly: “If you assault a federal officer, you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”

I would think that a statement like the one made by Vice Mayor Gonzalez would make her responsible for any acts committed by gangs against law enforcement.  

Police Union Says “Hasta La Vista, Vice Mayor!”
The Los Angeles Police Protective League slammed Gonzalez, calling her rhetoric “deplorable” and “potentially illegal.

” They want her out—stat—and have even hinted at possible prosecution if her call-to-arms violated the law." 

“What Ms. Gonzalez urged and taunted these specific gangs to do … puts law enforcement at greater risk,” the union stated.

Gonzalez’s Resume vs. Her Rant
For context: Gonzalez is a USC-educated former teacher and principal with two master’s degrees and a doctorate in educational leadership from UCLA. 

She claims to be “passionate about creating healthy and safe communities.” Yet here she is, telling hardened criminals to play paramilitary. 

It’s like hiring the "Joker" to babysit Gotham’s toddlers!

Political Climate: ICE Raids + Gang Pride = Dumpster Fire
This video dropped amid bold ICE sweeps in L.A., bolstered by jacked-up National Guard and Marine escorts. 

Local leaders like Mayor Karen Bass preached peaceful protest; Gonzalez was apparently unaware you can’t ask gangs for backup without expecting backup.

Cultural Context: Gang Loyalty vs. Law Enforcement
Sure, street gangs boast fierce neighborhood pride—spray-painting walls, turf wars, mixtapes about rival crews. 

But there’s a fine line between “protecting your turf” and breaking federal law. 

By framing ICE as “the biggest gang there is,” Gonzalez blurred that line, turning immigrant enforcement into a gang-versus-gang turf conflict.

What Could Possibly Go Wrong?
Plenty. 

Gangs aren’t exactly known for following rules or leaving witnesses unharmed. 

Encouraging them to “protect our people” hands them license to attack anyone in an ICE uniform—federal or local—while leaving civilians stuck in crossfire. 

In short, a meltdown recipe: a dash of vigilante justice, a pinch of federal crimes, and a tsunami of bad headlines.

City & School District Respond
Cudahy’s City Hall disavowed Gonzalez’s remarks, stressing they “do not represent the views or official position of the City.” 

The L.A. Unified School District confirmed she’s on leave, citing confidentiality around personnel matters. 

But that hasn’t stopped calls for her to resign—or at least enroll in an anger-management course!

Final Thoughts
If ever you need a cautionary tale of how not to address federal agents, Gonzalez’s video is your handy tutorial. 

Instead of rolling out community programs, gun-safety education, or multilingual town halls, she invented Gang 2.0: ICE Edition. 

Who knew that the next big law-enforcement challenge would come from someone who's supposed to uphold law and order!
