“You’re right, I definitely misspoke, and I knew that ICE was arresting some criminals,” Kerr said during Friday’s pregame session at Chase Center.
“I immediately regretted it because I knew that to be the case. My point is that they’re also arresting people and detaining citizens and people who should not be being detained. The manner in which they’re doing it, as you see, is riling everybody up all over the country.
“Being in Minneapolis for those four days was incredibly emotional and powerful. It was a very difficult time for all of us. At the end of those four days, it was a pretty emotional time. I misspoke, and I apologize for the misinformation. I hope everybody else out there who’s saying stuff that’s not true, please apologize, too. All right, let’s talk about basketball.”
Kerr had previously said, “It’s not like we’re rooting out violent criminals…They’re taking 5-year-old kindergartners and U.S. citizens and detaining people.”
When given a microphone after losing to the Wolves on Monday, Kerr blasted Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents for their actions in Minneapolis, which included taking 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos into custody.
“It’s not like we’re rooting out violent criminals,” Kerr said. “They’re taking 5-year-old kindergartners and U.S. citizens and detaining people. Immigration is a problem that needs to be addressed, but it needs to be addressed by Congress, legislatively, not by a military force in the streets pulling people from their homes.”
