    So they build an infrastructure, hire a lot of people, get the legal cover they need, deport millions…

    Then they have this whole process ready to go with no immigrants left to deport.

    Do you think it all gets shut down? Detention centers closed, ICE agents fired, etc?

    Or will they feed the new machine with other groups? LGBT? Muslims? Political opponents?

    Just food for thought.

    Man I hope that when this is over, these thugs are hunted to the end of their existence and imprisoned, no matter their age. They should be treated like we treat Nazis of old. “Just following orders” shouldn’t fly.

    What’s to stop residents from doing a citizen’s arrest of these thugs who fail to properly identify and show a warrant? They’re bound to be shot by a good guy with a gun soon…

    These ice agents deserve to be targeted. Yes, I am advocating violence against agents like this.

      I fully agree. With the lack of respect for the law I don’t understand why there aren’t uprisings and riots in the streets by now!

        Americans are being scarily apathetic to full takeover of fascism happening there. The constitution is already nullified if judges, mayor’s and those decrying fascism and authoritarianism are being locked away… the night is dark. They should be going by now but alas.

      They’re not federal agents. At best they’ve been deputized. Even that’s probably overstating their legal status.

    For context, this is in Worcester, MA. Fairly Democrat and progressive area. It’s not like this was happening in Ohio or Nebraska.

      This is by design. Have it happen in select locations (Colorado, Massachusetts) so the rest of the country can dismiss it as, “well, at least they aren’t here,” or a detached, “they probably deserved it,” while the behavior is normalized. They’ve started in Tennessee now to get red states normalized.

      It’s all a highly illegal long con so people don’t realize the country’s freedoms and laws being slowly eroded until it is too late.

      Stay vigilant.

        20k new ICE agents on the way too. Now all the gravy SEAL cosplayers can join up and hurt immigrants. Brown Shirts mobilizing. Authoritarian apparatus is gaining momentum.

    “We don’t have to show you anything,” one agent reportedly shot back when asked for ID or a warrant.

    “The crowd was unruly,” police said in a statement, claiming several individuals “put their hands on federal agents and Worcester officers.”

    There’s no reason to believe that they’re federal agents if they refuse to show ID. And there’s no law against putting your hands on gang members kidnapping one of your neighbors while impersonating federal agents. These dipshits are out of control and fucking stupid.

      There’s no reason to believe that they’re federal agents if they refuse to show ID.

      This is what I don’t understand. What’s then to prevent literally anyone else claiming to be from some other agency to intervene and say they can’t take the person away? And then claim they don’t need to show ID?

        But that’s interesting in of itself. They’re not going after gang members or violent offenders, they’re going for non violent/dangerous people.

          I was in several protests that were violently suppressed by police in the US, using tear gas, flash bangs, beatings etc. After threats and fascist violence, groups of armed leftists joined in more frequently. For whatever reason I can’t recall the police attacking while they were there. Like the IDF killing children, they only want defenseless victims.

        Extremely surprising that it didn’t happen yet.

        Liberals in America should be arming themselves and stockpiling ammo.

          Without civil asset forfeiture and wasteful budgets, would be hard to militarize as much as many US departments

          They’ve been playing Military Police for years now. Good news of course is the dozens of joints they’ve taken off our streets!

    This is Trump’s America.

    Notice how she speaks perfect English. This is clearly someone who doesn’t belong in the US /s

    What a fucking joke of a country.

    Maybe installing a government run by neo-Nazis was a bad idea?

    Why aren’t Americans shooting at ICE agents. It’s that what the 2nd amendment was for?

      Right, but if you start shooting, then you’re 100% dead, and for what? A 10pm news blip? Defend yourself, but dont commit suicide for nothing. Organize and resist.

        You’re going to “organize and resist” while the USA quietly slips into an authoritative regime.

        Then it will be too late.

          Dying for nothing doesn’t help the cause either. What do you suggest? Start killing ICE agents on site? How long do you really think you would last?
