Florida sheriff promises lethal force against ICE protesters

A Florida sheriff has issued a stern warning against violent protests, declaring that law enforcement in his county will not hesitate to use deadly force if necessary.

Wayne Ivey, the sheriff of Brevard County, located east of Orlando, made the declaration during a press conference addressing the recent nationwide unrest, including protests in Los Angeles following U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations.

Referring to the clashes in California, Sheriff Ivey stated that while peaceful protest is permitted, any escalation into violence will be met with swift and severe consequences. He warned that actions such as resisting lawful orders, blocking traffic, or fleeing arrest would result in immediate jail time.

More forcefully, he said any physical assault on law enforcement, such as spitting on or striking officers, would result in the perpetrator not only being arrested but also hospitalized.

Ivey issued his strongest warning to those who might engage in more extreme acts, such as pointing a weapon, hurling firebombs, or throwing bricks at officers. In such cases, he said, individuals “won’t need a jail cell” as the response would be fatal. “We’ll direct your family to your remains,” he said.

Using stark language, Ivey described the approach as a return to “Old West” style law enforcement, warning that stepping out of line could leave someone “graveyard dead.”

The sheriff’s comments come as protests continue across the United States in response to ICE raids and immigration policies. The demonstrations, which began in Los Angeles, have drawn national attention and sparked debate over federal enforcement tactics and local responses.

While federal agents and military personnel have been deployed to manage unrest in cities like Los Angeles, Sheriff Ivey’s message makes clear that his jurisdiction will respond aggressively to any perceived threats to public safety or law enforcement personnel.
