Public outrage is heating up as a fire captain in Minneapolis allegedly says ICE agents deserve “a thousand deaths,” and he’ll be “satisfied if I can give them one.”
The purported comments by Capt. Kenn Glenn were originally publicized by Crime Watch Minneapolis, and got a boost on Wednesday from LibsofTikTok.
OMG. Kenn Glenn, the Fire Captain for Minneapolis, posted online calling for “a thousand deaths” for ICE agents and says he will be “satisfied if I can give them one.”

A screenshot of social media quotes Glenn as saying: “My biggest fear is not ICE, it is my reaction to them. They deserve a thousand deaths, I’ll be satisfied if I can give them one.”
“This person is paid with YOUR tax dollars,” noted LibsofTikTok.
Gigi Murphy, a retired EMS officer, was outraged, saying: “This requires a criminal and civil investigation!”
“Fire departments are required to serve everyone without bias. A chief openly wishing death on a category of people raises legitimate concerns about: 1. Discriminatory denial of aid; 2. Unsafe scene decisions; 3. Abuse of authority. That’s how departments get sued into oblivion.
Others are calling for Glenn’s ouster, stating:
“Fire this deranged individual. He is not fit to serve his community.”
“This guy not only needs to be removed from his position, he needs to be banned from the fire department forever. This is disgusting. How can he be entrusted with saving lives when he is calling for the deaths of [law enforcement] by his own hand?”
“How can you trust these people? You have a fire at your house and a Trump sign in your yard … they going to leave you trapped inside? Let it burn?”
