Well, there it is — another episode of “California vs. Common Sense,” brought to you by the fine folks who think borders are optional and that federal law enforcement is the enemy if it happens to enforce the law.
This week’s installment comes courtesy of a surgical center in Ontario, California, where staff members apparently mistook their scrubs for superhero capes and decided to physically interfere with Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers executing a targeted arrest. And no, this isn’t satire — it’s California in 2025.
Let’s walk through this. ICE agents, wearing clearly marked bulletproof vests (so we’re not talking about some mystery men in unmarked vehicles here), roll up to arrest two individuals who are illegally in the country — a.k.a. breaking the law. One of them, a Honduran national named Denis Guillen-Solis, takes off running like it’s the Boston Marathon, eventually making his way into the Ontario Advanced Surgery Center. And that’s where things go completely off the rails.
Video footage shows surgical staff — who, last time I checked, are trained in medicine, not law enforcement — trying to physically block ICE officers from doing their jobs. One employee yells “Get your hands off him,” while another demands that agents “let him go” because, you guessed it, “you don’t even have a warrant.” Yes, we’ve now reached the point where people working in a private medical facility feel confident enough to lecture federal law enforcement on warrant requirements — which, by the way, aren’t even needed in the same way for immigration enforcement as they are for criminal cases. Minor detail, right?

To make matters worse, according to the Department of Homeland Security, the staff allegedly went full-on obstruction mode: dragging the illegal alien and the ICE officer into the facility, locking doors, blocking vehicles, and — this part really takes the cake — calling the police to report a “kidnapping.” That’s right, instead of cooperating with law enforcement, they decided to pretend ICE was abducting someone off the street. Because apparently, that’s how we do things in a state that spends more time suing the federal government than fixing its own collapsing infrastructure.
Now, Javier Hernandez of the Inland Coalition for Immigrant Justice was quick to jump in with the emotional angle, telling the AP that the man was sending money back to Honduras to pay for his mother’s dialysis. Okay. That’s tragic, no question — but it doesn’t change the fact that he’s here illegally. We can empathize with someone’s circumstances without pretending the law doesn’t apply to them. Or at least we used to be able to. Not so much in California anymore.
Meanwhile, this isn’t some isolated moment of protest. On the same day, ICE agents had to deal with protesters clashing with them outside the San Francisco Immigration Court, and then again during a separate immigration enforcement operation at a marijuana farm north of L.A. You’d think they were breaking up a church picnic, not enforcing immigration laws. Funny how nobody seems this outraged about violent crime in California cities — but heaven forbid you try to deport someone who broke the law to get here.

Here’s the bottom line: You don’t get to physically interfere with federal officers and expect a pat on the back. This isn’t civil disobedience — it’s obstruction. The surgical staff at that center didn’t just make a political statement; they potentially committed crimes. But because this is California, where the law seems to be more of a suggestion than a standard, don’t hold your breath waiting for any consequences. In fact, the staff will probably be invited to give a TED Talk on “compassionate resistance” by the end of the week.

We’ve reached a point where ideology trumps legality, and law enforcement is treated like the villain for doing its job. And as long as state and local leaders keep encouraging this kind of behavior, don’t be surprised when the lines between sanctuary and sabotage get blurrier by the day.
