      If they have work permits they’re not illegal and shouldn’t have been snatched up anyway.

        There’s many articles out there about ice and organization, grabbing the wrong people or people who are properly identified, but their actual legal status mislabeled. As far as I’m concerned, ice is completely incompetent and they shouldn’t be enforcing any laws whatsoever at this point.

          I completely agree. ICE is nothing but Gestapo trash.

        They’ve been given the go-ahead to go full mask-off racist:

          I wonder if Benny Johnson started bleating out the same thing. That guy has one of the most punchable faces I’ve ever seen, by the way.

        GestICEpo is arresting first and asking questions later (how long is the process going to take? Are they going to get lost in a prison somewhere for months?).

      Yes, which should give ICE supporters a moment to pause and consider two things. First, anyone could be an immigrant. It could be their neighbors and coworkers. Documentation can be faked or doctored or just expired, and the immigration process is deliberately complex.

      Second, ICE isn’t being careful about who they abduct and deport. There’s no process, much less due process, and it can literally happen to any person, immigrant or native born, legal or otherwise.

        Steven Miller seems to be calling the shots on this, and his test is do they “pass as white”? If yes, move along, if not, arrest and sort it out later as they are potentially “monsters” and sub-human. And being wrong has so far had no consequences.
