This is just the beginning. You'll get a knock on your door at midnight, for something you said on a defunct political website in 1997.
At this point, I'll answer with my shotgun than to get tortured by these fat fuck racist shitheads.
They'll have to wait, I don't answer the door after dark.
If one is 'held at gunpoint' and survives, then they're a gun survivor. The words we choose to describe violent encounters, matter.
Just call it what it is: traumatized gunpoint survivors of fascism raids.
Just call it what it is: fake and gay
What a Watergate scenario this is, innit?
"Immigration crackdown"
Actually...
Public show of fascism
Just 500? Expected it to be larger
These are the ones that are reported/documented.
It's not OK to treat immigrants this way either. Drawing the distinction exposes the racism of the whole endeavor of boarder control; that Americans are just better people.
These tactics were developed to deal with drug cartels and gangs, not cleaning ladies and cashiers. (The tactics don't work on cartels or gangs either)
You're right it's not okay to treat immigrants like that, but the distinction is valid all the same.
It's not ok but there is also a legitimate point to be made by establishing that this is happening routinely to citizens ( who are afforded greater protections under the law)
Ladies and gentlemen, Justice Kavanaugh's solo concurrence from Noem v. Vasquez Perdomo:
Immigration stops based on reasonable suspicion of illegal presence have been an important component of U. S. immigration enforcement for decades, across several presidential administrations. In this case, however, the District Court enjoined U. S. immigration officers from making investigative stops in the Los Angeles area when the stops are based on the following factors or combination of factors: (i) presence at particular locations such as bus stops, car washes, day laborer pickup sites, agricultural sites, and the like; (ii) the type of work one does; (iii) speaking Spanish or speaking English with an accent; and (iv) apparent race or ethnicity.
...
Under this Court’s precedents, not to mention common sense, those circumstances taken together can constitute at least reasonable suspicion of illegal presence in the United States. Importantly, reasonable suspicion means only that immigration officers may briefly stop the individual and inquire about immigration status. If the person is a U. S. citizen or otherwise lawfully in the United States, that individual will be free to go after the brief encounter. Only if the person is illegally in the United States may the stop lead to further immigration proceedings.
AKA, Kavanaugh Stops.
I think it’s closer to tens of thousands… Oh right, the brown ones don’t count.
