No, they aren't. You are just upset they aren't the results you want.We have a court currently that has shown it has a very strong partisan bend as well as a philosophical view that the executive branch should have powers well beyond anything laid out in the constitution.
Do you want a court that rubber stamps the countries march into a supreme executive with barely regulated corporate entities? That's where the country is headed and there's nothing in the constitution that gives those power.
The court is becoming illegitimate. It's rulings are based on what result they want, not precedence or the constitution and the Justices opinions are getting more and more incoherent as they bend themselves into pretzels to reach the conclusions they want to reach.
Does this mean you believe the 4th Amendment doesn't apply to all Americans?No, they aren't. You are just upset they aren't the results you want.
Please describe the people the government is seeking to deport.Does this mean you support the Supreme Court's seeming endorsement of the government's use of racial profiling?
The people being sought to deport are not Americans.Does this mean you believe the 4th Amendment doesn't apply to all Americans?

Donalds bought and paid for scotus just legalized racial profiling.No, they aren't. You are just upset they aren't the results you want.
Sure, ICE is there to help and would never do anything like that.
Mr. Reagan said it best.
Allowing racial profiling goes against our Constitution, primarily by violating the Fourteenth Amendment's Equal Protection Clause and the Fourth Amendment's prohibition on unreasonable searches and seizures.The people being sought to deport are not Americans.
Looks as if some posters here think it's okay for the state to violate the 14th and the 4th, so long as it's done to "others". Equally if not more troubling: the Republican Six on the SCOTUS appear to agree.Allowing racial profiling goes against our Constitution, primarily by violating the Fourteenth Amendment's Equal Protection Clause and the Fourth Amendment's prohibition on unreasonable searches and seizures.
Basing law enforcement actions on race rather than on an individual's behavior is discriminatory and unjust.
Which part dont you understand?
Except you have a problem. Every single person that is being deported to South America has Hispanic as a racial identity. It's not profiling, its reality.Donalds bought and paid for scotus just legalized racial profiling.

I want you to answer the question first.Pyrite said:

Thanks for letting us all know you don't want to answer the question re whether or not you support the government's use of racial profiling.
Is this because you do endorse racial profiling but don't want to face criticism for your support of it?
That was a stretch. Reagan wasn't talking about the non-enforcement of federal laws in place. His administration emphasized tough-on-crime policies.
I was a Democrat at the time, so I had to do some research, and I found that he made that statement during an '86 press conference, expressing his disdain for government inefficiency which he believed led to bloated bureaucracy, waste, and abuse, all undermining personal responsibility and individual freedom. Sound familiar? It should.

How you ever enforce immigration if you can't argue race is part of an identifying factor.Allowing racial profiling goes against our Constitution, primarily by violating the Fourteenth Amendment's Equal Protection Clause and the Fourth Amendment's prohibition on unreasonable searches and seizures.

Which part confuses you?
Racial profiling is against Constitutional law.How you ever enforce immigration if you can't argue race is part of an identifying factor.

Yes, sounds like ICE with their 75 billion budget and complete disdain for our rights, no?

That doesn't answer my question. It makes excuses for why you cannot, but it doesn't explain how you can do it.Because there are US citizens of all races and ethnicities.
And in Los Angeles County 48% of residents are Latino. Latinos are elected officials, as well as Chinese, Filipinos, etc.
Checking with Biden on enforcing immigration law, yeah, same thing. Were you pissed then?Racial profiling is against Constitutional law.
Everyone from donald, scotus on down to ice barbie took an oath to uphold the Constitution.
Every f___in' one of them broke their oaths.
Then maybe your favorite group of politicians should have enforced the law instead of ignoring it.Considering the role race has played in the horrors in our nation's history, using it to enforce the law seems like a very risky endeavor indeed. Especially considering the crime is a victimless misdemeanor.
With 38% of US citizens not being white folks, you're talking about depriving a hell of a lot of citizens 4th amendment protections.
In short, the cure is worse than the disease. Made worse by the fact that most people object to the policy.
That doesn't answer my question. It makes excuses for why you cannot, but it doesn't explain how you can do it.
I asked that exactly the way I did for a reason.
Try answering the question. Quit making excuses and trying to play on emotions and just try to answer the question.So too damn bad for anyone who does not appear Anglo?
There are Latinos in California whose families have been here longer than my immigrant family has. But if they have a certain look, they’re in for harassment, while my family will escape scrutiny while walking down the street.
Strawman garbage.Checking with Biden on enforcing immigration law, yeah, same thing. Were you pissed then?
