They tell our children and use their words when they \u2014 when they grow up. I wonder what\u2019s wrong with us. I don\u2019t know why we lost our way. So it feels \u2014 but maybe we\u2019ve always been like this, we just got better at making things that can kill each other,&#8221; he said in a <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MarcoFoster_\/status\/2076293632420728939\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">viral video clip<\/a> of the concert.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Anyway, I wanted to say his name. I wrote it down so I didn\u2019t forget it, this young man who was \u2014 well, old man, but we\u2019re all young \u2014 this father and grandfather who was murdered by ICE in Houston, Texas. And then they say he\u2019s not even the guy \u2014 he\u2019s not even the guy they were looking for. Well, then don\u2019t pull the trigger, you a&#8211;holes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So I just wanted to say, I\u2019m sorry if that language offends his family or his friends or his community, but it\u2019s just making me mad anyway, so I want to send this to the memory of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, who was killed a few days ago in Houston by ICE,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/us\/ice-officer-shot-killed-illegal-immigrant-tried-ram-car-houston\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>ICE SAYS OFFICER SHOT AND KILLED ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT WHO TRIED TO RAM HIM WITH CAR IN HOUSTON<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Illegal immigrant Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, a Mexican citizen, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/ice-officer-shot-killed-illegal-immigrant-tried-ram-car-houston\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">was shot and killed<\/a> in Houston after he allegedly tried to ram U.S. ICE officers during an operation, the agency said Tuesday.
