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

Really, you don't know me. My wife is Korean. My daughter married a Mexican gentleman and my grandkids have brown skin. I love them all. So don't assume that I am a racist or supremacist

You have advocated for genocide against Muslim People.

On a global scale.

That's the end of the conversation.
 
That's not the debate we're having. Of course they can be deported. Joe Biden and Barack Obama deported literally millions of people during their terms, but they followed constitutionally-valid procedures for doing so.
And just how would you know if ICE officers are NOT following constitutionally-valid procedures when doing their job?
 
Why are the Democrat rioters waving Mexican flags in LA?
Is this an insurrection?
 
It would be a lot better if people with money, means, and power were more interested in creating a society that was less racist, less exploitative, and more egalitarian. I bet people would be less inclined to riot then, but that's really the crux of the matter: one half of the country likes the periods in American history that were racist, sexist, homophobic, aristocratic, and exploitative. They also probably think they like being forced to work in mine shafts with no ability to collectively bargain for better pay and working conditions, talking about how we should do more real work but wouldn't know shit all about what real work is.
But these riots are happening in the Leftist egalitarian dreamscape called California. How can this be?
 
Thanks for the info. i work weekends and am just catching up. If the LAPD has to protect ICE...how is ICE supposed to be able to do it's job?

LAPD is required to respond to a request for protection by federal agents.

The extent of the peril those agents faced is another topic.

That's BS, Obama deported without due process. There is no way possible to deport as many as his administration did with due process. Do you understand what due process entails? They have to go before a judge to plead their case. It would take decades to give the millions Obama deported a day in court.

I don’t think it is that deep. Leftists just like to riot. Look at Portland and Seattle. Liberal “utopias” turned into complete shitholes in 2020. Remember the Capital Hill Autonomous Zone?

It's not just ICE's actions that are the issue. There's a directive from Stephen Miller to deport 3000 people per day, which is an arbitrary number. Increased ICE activity likely reflects internal agency action to comply with this arbitrary request. This is not really all that different than the systematic deportations of Jews in Nazi Germany.

One can see Mexican flags on a daily basis in LA. Same as flags of various other nations.

Nothing to do with an “insurrection” — just pride in people’s roots.
 
You can’t interfere with federal agents. You can refuse to cooperate with them but you can’t interfere with. It’s illegal and it’s stupid. You interfere you’re just feeding the MAGAT propaganda mill.

Because Hispanic rioters who escaped from their country want to show just how much they love our country by waving their native flag and telling us how much they love their native country from which they chose to escape.
 
They conceal their identity because low life scum are doxxing them and their families
And now rapists are pretending to be ICE agents and raping women.
Should we consider those rapid women collateral damage?

I didn't really agree with those, either, and as someone who's lived in the Pacific Northwest, I am aware of the anarchist energy there. On the way to work every day, I had to walk past dozens of people who set up encampments in local parks, didn't bathe, shat all over the place, yelled obscenities at passers by merely for wearing business casual, and called it a movement against Wall Street and the 1% back in the early 2010s. But as distasteful as they were, at least they didn't try to overthrow the federal government.

Cool. Then they wont mind us sending lots of them back where they can be closer to those roots.

Showing "just pride in people’s roots" by waving the flag of a country from which they escaped because the conditions in their native country were intolerable.
So they come here to enjoy the fruits of our country and to defy our federal laws by obstructing ICE officers as they try to do their job.
Makes sense to those who really don't give a shit about assimilating into our country because they could not live in the country of their origin.

Indeed. That’s the great thing about the First Amendment.

No one is saying they cant do it. But it does expose where their loyalties lie. And its not with the US. If they were smart, they would be waving American flags

In Nazi Germany (1942) there was a directive by Hitler to deport and exterminate all Jews in Germany and Europe.
DHS wants to deport illegal aliens, not exterminate them.
You know that but you need to hype up the issue by comparing ICE and DHS to Nazis.
