ICE raids across L.A. spark backlash; Trump officials vow to continue operations

[BirdinHand]

And that’s all this really boils down to.

These assholes are fulfilling some sick twisted fantasy that they have by sending “ICE agents” into neighborhoods like this.

It’s uncalled for and unnecessary.

If you have warrants, go in and arrest the people you have warrants for. Wear regular uniforms. Wear badges with your names. Show your face. Do your job respectfully and with dignity.

This bullshit? It’s performative nonsense meant to get a reaction and cause violence

Shame on the government for acting in this manner.

Disgusting. Unnecessary. Ridiculous.

And shame on anyone cheering this on or that thinks this is appropriate.

Read the Constitution so your posts aren't so ignorant

ICE is going to get someone killed.

As has been pointed out, ICE is only enforcing existing federal immigration laws.

The people who are putting others at risk of getting killed are the ones who are leaking the planned ICE enforcement operations (putting federal officers at risk), as well as those who are doxxing those federal agents, and also those who then show up at these enforcement operations to demonstrate and protest, at risk of causing a confrontation which escalates into something no sane person would want to have happen - yet it will - eventually.

Riot police and protesters clash after LA immigration raids

It came after federal raids in the city on Friday in which agents reportedly took dozens of people into custody.

They should be happy that the good guys are there to remove the criminals from amongst them.

No. There’s no “good guys” in this - there’s performative cosplay bullshit meant to invoke reactions.

See post above

Lincoln suspended Habeas Corpus.

I hope all those that assaulted federal agents go to prison for a very long time. Insurectionist

 

[madman]

Under 18 U.S. Code § 111 Assault on a federal agent is a felony punishable by 8 years in prison. Assault with a deadly weapon like a brick or a rock is a felony punishable by up to 20 years in federal prison. In fact just laying your hands on a federal agent is considered assault. It's time to lock these people up.

ohhh, you mean like a felony like the J6'rs assaulted the capitol police?

Anyone assaulting anyone should face criminal charges - period.

"It's not that people say **** NO,NO GESTAPO IN AMERICA!" It's Democrats' fault that people are saying it.

Of course, ya bloody MAGA ****s. Of course.





Meanwhile, over in reality, I'm pissed off that the Democrats are being their usual lily-livered whining selves rather than ****ing FIGHTING for once, not in congress but every one of them making like Bernie/etc and barnstorming around the country. Raise hell.

Due process is a constitutional right.

You can't vote away someone's rights. Well, I suppose a majority can, but that's unwise.

The U.S. Constitution addresses the suspension of habeas corpus in Article I, Section 9, Clause 2. It states:
"The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it."

We have been invaded. If Lincoln can suspend Habeas Corpus then so can President Trump

 

[SgtRock]

ohhh, you mean like a felony like the J6'rs assaulted the capitol police?

Umm, where the hell have you been. J6 Patriots have all been pardoned. Get over it and move on.

No, we have not.

Lincoln was prosecuting a civil war to preserve the Union. Trump isn't dealing with an emergency, except the one in his mind.

And that's a wrap.

Whats inappropriate about it? That it offends your leftist sensibilities is irrelevant. If there are people here illegally and engaging in criminal activity, it is the job of ICE to arrest them.

 

[anatta]

LAPD called it unlawful assembly. The crazed lunatic city and state sanctuary politicians are encouraging obstruction
Just another FUBAR California day. Except this time the state police back ICE..

Trump is going to have to have a showdown and start restricting federal funds to get their minds right

But there isn't a need for Insurrection act , because locals can handle it. There are a ton of lunatic young people who are socialists/anarchists and just plain dumb, but thats as far as it goes.. This is a small riot - not like the Civil Rights days

Exactly

This type of post is completely lacking any cogent reasoning or thought process, not to mention any grounding whatsoever in what is/isn’t Constitutional powers of a POTUS.

Trump is not some king that can just arbitrarily decide to shut off federal funding to a state.

 

[anatta]

Of course this is the purpose of the escalations in areas that do not want them.

They are trying to go where they are least wanted to provoke a reaction.

It’s also why they conceal their identities.

Their families and the agents are doxxed. a common practice from ANTIFA. Only liberals would say it's Gestapo.
ICE has WARRANTS for arrests get it??

How do you “dox” federal agents when they are supposed to be wearing badges that identify them in the first place?

ALL officers - unless they are working under cover - are supposed to wear badges and produce identification.

Period.

From your local cops to all federal agents.

not arbitrary -targeted withholding.. then the cities can sue the federal government and the courts can rule on Constituionality
Coming from someone who things ICE agents wearing makes is Gestapo, it's more hyperblabbing

Or we can continue going in an having violent reactions. Myself I'd rather go after sanctuary cities as a source for this, and try to get their minds right

I think it's fair to say this is the biggest political crisis this country has had since at least the late 1960s and early 1970s. I suspect we're going to race past that post and find analogs further back in our history, and we may eventually run out of analogs. I don't recognize the country I've lived in for 51 years.
