Not all 55M are currently here. I'd have to think vast majority of those are tourist visas which can go for up to 10 years.

This is another nothing-burger being promoted so the ignorant can have a ridiculous # to quote and bitch about immigrants.
Thanks, still... screwing with tourism won't be a good idea after all...

Well this just hit close to home.
My Stepmother, a citizen who has lived in this country for over 50 years was detained for 3 hours after being approached at a supermarket by local cops, and then surrounded by ice agents who asked to see "her papers".
She told them she was a citizen, showed them her driver's license and social security card and they refuse to accept she was a citizen and held her for hours.

70 year old citizen who has been a citizen longer than the scumbags have been alive who just went to pick up some snacks at the store.

She's pretty traumatized right now.

Fuck them all

My solution. All Democrat Governers, use your National Guard to snatch Proud Boys and Oath Keepers off the streets and move them to undisclosed locations. Use the Trump charge of gang affiliation.

Once that starts all the shit will stop. Use their own tactics against them. See how upset they get when Gavin Newsome mocks Trump's tweeting style.

And I am not making light of what happened. I just not aware of white people being snatched up by ICE.
They deny there's racial profiling and say its "intelligence based", but we all know its bullshit.
When these assholes swoop down on a Home Depot, it's only based on skin color.

I have an acquaintance, who is Hispanic and is a big trump humper. I've iterated that he's a prime candidate for
a detention for just because he looks the part. I guess he thinks being born in the US 60 years ago will make
that difference. They will snatch first and possibly, ask questions later.
The only big reason he's not stopped is the area I live in the very liberal South Bay of the Bay Area.
There's not a lot of that going on here ATM.

They may deny it but the ICE director already said it's ok to snatch someone off the street based on how they look.

That racial profiling.

That is the correct idea for the need to mobilize military to defend the people. To pursue our domestic enemies.
Trump started it, but we need to finish it.

That's so fucked up.

I'm sure @Greenman will be along shortly to tell you how it's unfortunate that she was inconvenienced, but it isn't a big deal.

Most states already have laws against paramilitary organizations. It seems like there are a number of "militias" they could crack down on using those laws. I bet the venn diagram between those groups and proud boys and whatnot is a circle.

This is how to correctly deal with Paramilitary Proud Boys..


Yep. Same story I just posted. We're gonna see one of two outcomes from this:
1) ICE fuckers get way more aggressive/violent in their kidnappings
2) ICE gets a little more cautious in how they go about things, with more visible markings, badges, etc.

I'll let you guess which one is more likely.
