Meanwhile, in CHICAGO

Whatever you want to call it, the people there were clearly not happy and were being aggressive toward the ICE agents who, justifiably, defended themselves.

Defended themselves from…yelling?

Defended themselves from…yelling?

To be fair, one protester made the grave mistake of playing her clarinet leading up to her arrest in Portland.

ICE agents are bigger cowards and snowflakes than ordinary MAGAs. Which is difficult to do.

Again, if you are responding to zen in good faith, you are just feeding him.

His posts should only be met with the mockery and derision worthy of his lonely single. childless, trump voting, homo and xenophobic shitposts.

I'm obviously not referring to that. I'm talking about arresting people here illegally.

In their rush to meet quotas, and likely because they are under-trained, mistakes are being made.

They are just doing their job. And by that I am referring only the legal actions and not the illegal ones.

Did I get that right, Zen?

 

[superrific]

ICE, under Trump, is taking a proactive, not reactive, approach.

So did the Gestapo. Law enforcement being "proactive" -- whatever you mean by that -- is usually considered totalitarian. You know, like Minority Report.

The right: we need automatic weapons so we wage war against a tyrannical government.

Also, the right: stop saying mean things to the tyrannical government.

JCDing ICE is such a bad look.

For normal people. Looks right on Zen.

Then fire and/or arrest their dumb asses.

They're not anti-tyranny. They're anti-tyranny by the left. They're cool with a tyrant they like. But the guns are for tyrants they don't like.

Actually it is doing their job. Don't like quotas, but they are literally doing their job.

Doing their job literally involves due process. You know, those annoying little details like obtaining warrants, allowing detainees a phone call and an opportunity to speak to an attorney, not needlessly ramming into cars, violently arresting people for the crime of being brown, killing family pets, etc. What they are doing is waging a campaign of intimidation and thuggery. I realize that’s a small difference to you, but for normal, decent people it’s unacceptable.
