    People with no criminal record have been widely targeted since the start of expanded ICE operations.

      It was obvious it would happen. There aren’t nearly enough immigrants with a criminal record to meet Trump’s targets.

          Exactly. And them shooting and killing Alex Pretti and Renee Nicole Good wasn’t an accident. Eventually they were going to arrest and even kill white American citizens.

          The neanderthal thugs they hired just skipped to the last part of the poem.

          …by design.

          Because you always need to keep escalating and broadening the definition of who’s not part of the protected in-group.

      Yeah, even one our major networks tried to broadcast that half the people sent el Salvador in the first wave had no criminal record, and something like 3 people had a ever had a violent criminal act out of them all.

      The Laken Riley Act was one of the early signs of what was to come. It “requires the detention, without bond, of non-citizens who are arrested for, charged with, or admit to committing certain crimes, including theft, burglary, larceny, shoplifting, assault on a law enforcement officer, or any crime resulting in death or serious bodily injury, such as drunk driving.” Yes this includes violent criminals, but from my interpretation it also would include someone accused of stealing a candy bar.

      A lot of Democrats voted for it and I consider them collaborators.

        It’s worse. Basically anything while getting (unlawfully) arrested can be constructed as “assault on a law enforcement officer”.

          If the cops give conflicting or confusing directions, that’s resisting arrest. If you struggle at all when they throw you against a wall or to the ground, that’s assaulting an officer.

      I don’t think any of these cosplayers are going to volunteer to go after hang members.
