Social ICE/deportation protests and riots megathread

[koquerelle]

I'm not denying protesters escalated but

Stopped reading at "but". There is no "but". Honest people are getting intimidated. Stores are getting looted. There is no place for such violence. These fuckers make me ashamed of being a democrat.

A sanctuary city just means local law enforcement isn't cooperating with immigration authorities and won't ask you your immigration status, you think that's ground to deploy the National Guard?

I think the local law enforcement being overrun and outmatched is reason enough to call the guard. It’s not ok to openly say that it’s fine to break the law by a government

Imagine being that much of a lowlife you steal food stamps from poor people that literally can't afford to put food on the table for their children.

Were they though? Neither the mayor nor the governor asked for the National Guard.

So you think local and state law enforcement should be forced to enforce federal laws or else be occupied by the federal government?

Sanctuary Cities aren't even remotely a thing anymore since masked "ICE" agents are kidnapping people off the street refusing to even show their ID.

You sound like a confederate.

Honest people are also being intimidated by masked federal agents in plain clothes throwing people into unmarked vans.

And anyway I thought you were Canadian? Am I confusing you for someone else?

 

[Osculater]

Eh, I've seen better

Fake news.

Confederate? It was your beloved right wing SCOTUS justices that established this.
And I recall conservatives being happy with it, because they said states couldn’t be forced to conduct firearms background checks by the federal government, as laid out in the Brady Bill.
Stalwart conservative Antonin Scalia wrote the majority opinion.

Printz v. United States, 521 U.S. 898 (1997)

Printz v. United States: The federal government violated the Tenth Amendment when Congress required state and local officials to perform background checks on people buying guns.

It blows my mind how many people continue to believe the horseshit that people that have illegally immigrated into this country, are still illegally in the country (have not completed any of the legal proccess), are not only some how voting in elections but are doing to the level that it changes elections.

Morons.

The increased population gives states more congress and senate seats plus it gives them more electoral votes. Illegals don't need to vote for it too benefit Democrats.

This is an interesting position. Soviet Union, the first 4 years? like, it was terrible....

cute, Mexico and mexican's hate their own fully indigenous and have them at the bottom of their caste but then they want to hint that they are indian, cute.

Incidentally, I'm half native alaskan and I'm probably going to encounter some bullshit because of these folks, I've been asked once where I'm from by an amazon flex customer but so far, no more than that but it might get ugly all over. Strange times, i'm american going back generations though and my folks fought for this country like everyone else's.

WTF are you talking about? i'm sure the total amount of crimes is far greater than 50, but overall the amount of total violence and arrest is nowhere close to the likes of BLM protest that literally burned cities down.

Why did Bondi completely stop talking about the Epstein files after stating she had "truckloads" of evidence to release? A bit weird eh?

ya, but holdup, most of the damage during blm was by white folks, young white folks, at least from what I could observe firsthand, no blacks were lighting no police cruisers on fire.

 

[DoctorTaco]

To answer your last question. No, I said arrest the terrorists,

Close, what you said was:

start checking the legal status of everyone of these commie terrorists in the streets of LA

Which sounded like blanket call to violate the 4th ammendment. If I’m a commie and
Marching in the streets I still have my constitutional rights. That goes for every other person peacefully doing the same.

 

[UberHere]

Newsome literally told the cops to let it happen.

If the governor tells the police to stand down during a riot, do you think that might affect the arrest numbers?

Logic like that is above his level of cognition.
Or he’s just full of shit and got busted.

Sorry to hear that.

Im sure you actually believe that too. Is Ebonics back in style or no good english no more around?

Things get worse for Newsom

Apparently he lied his ass off about Trump not calling or talking to him before Trump decided to do Newsom’s job for him . W/receipts

I got news for you then - most looters are apolitical, not "democrats". That's absolutely ridiculous - you are simply repeating a fox entertainment style narrative.

It's the same argument with republicans claiming that criminals vote democrat. 99.99999% of all criminals are 100% apolitical and probably couldn't even name who the VP is.
