not that I'm encouraging it but I'm kind of surprised that there hasn't been more violent attacks on ice officers
Small scale violence excites and emboldens fascism. It will not stop it.
All I’m hearing is that we should be using large-scale violence.
We’ve done it before.
The OG Antifa?
Absolutely.
And honestly, I’m convinced that that generation more or less fully dying out in the last decade or so (and I mean across the western world, not just in the states) was a pretty direct cause of this fascist resurgence, because everyone who was a part of getting rid of fascism the hard way last time around is in the ground.
The thought does scare me and even though I'm pretty sure it has its critics, that 80 year cycle thing does make me wonder - given the (current) average human lifespan, there might be something to it.
All that wisdom dies off and has to be re-learned. Kind of like all the idiots learning about vaccines right now.
If we can get large scale protest, we won’t need violence.

Does the lesson of you are not special have to be learned one at a time forever?
Why do you think we're in this situation? Practically, the majority of Americans can only learn things the hard way.

"Obviously nobody else is special because just I am, duh"
-these fuckin' guys
Unfortunately, yes.
And, as an American, we tend to forget everything after 1-3 years. So you have to teach us again. And again. And again. And-
You understand, I gather.
In the rugged individual myth society yeah probably.
If you are even vaguely Latino in this country, it could happen to you at any moment. Nobody is safe.
If you are even vaguely ~~Latino~~ brown in this country, it could happen to you at any moment. Nobody is safe.
*points at native americans being detained*
They have gotten some very tanned white folk too. Hense why no one wants to go to a tanning bed where the point was to look darker.
And they won't stop there. Fascism needs a constant supply of new enemies, and sooner or later you will find yourself in its sights.
I am a white appearing half Latino—there but by the grace of god go I. I take this fight personally.
I’m surprised by how many latinos (according to research) genuinely believe they are part of the American “white” ethno-fascist in-group. It’s unbelievably bizarre.

Yeah I mean they are literally trying to drum up a causus belli for war on liberal states right now. I'm sure they won't stop trying even if they can't goad protesters to violence.
I am sure this guy thought, “Well it won’t happen to me…”, but sadly, Trumpism is happening to all of us.
"Correa expressed disappointment in the Trump administration, feeling betrayed after voting for him and serving the country, as he believed only violent criminals would be targeted."
Worst part is that Shirley was going through the process of naturalization and working to be here legally. Through a process the military had put in place for just this exact kind of thing.
She had no criminal record, has been here for a decade, and has faithfully reported for her hearings. Not to mention she is gainfully employed.
Why the fuck are we wasting time and resources deporting this person?
Why the fuck are we wasting time and resources deporting this person?
Because suffering and fear is the point
Because America put a deranged convict into, what is arguably the most powerful position in the world. Congress won't challenge him, so he's running amok while his party turns a blind eye to the obvious human rights violations that are constantly happening.
The whole "worst of the worst" line for who that are deporting is, and always has been a lie. They just want POCs to suffer and die because they're Nazis.
The even sicker part is that there is an entire cult worth of brainwashed racists all sitting around a table afterwards congratulating eachother for making America ""safe"" and saving their country.
I could throw a plate.
But on that morning in March, Guardado got a strange phone call at work. Some sort of public safety officer had dialed her office and wanted her to come outside to talk. In the parking lot, three men in plain clothes identified themselves as Department of Public Safety officers, Correa told The War Horse. As Shirly approached, they said her car had been involved in an accident. But when she got close, they grabbed her and handcuffed her, telling her they were ICE agents.
God damn this is scummy as hell.
All sympathy to the innocent woman and child, but to the husband? YOU GET WHAT YOU VOTE FOR SCUMBAG. It’s unfortunate that an innocent woman and child you care about had to be affected, but fuck you.
Now off you go to genocide / die for the Israeli empire.
Israel first!
Correa expressed disappointment in the Trump administration, feeling betrayed after voting for him…
Ya this guy and go eat shit
This is just insane! And to leave the family in a lurch for 3 months?! That's even worse.
Just in time to be sent to Iran. I'm sure the kids will be fine!

I didn't see it mentioned here or elsewhere what party the Sgt has a associated with, but it did mention the party (Democrat) of another officer. The omission of this speaks volumes though.
This other article mentions it:
Correa expressed disappointment in the Trump administration, feeling betrayed after voting for him and serving the country, as he believed only violent criminals would be targeted.
Jesus man like how can people be this dense
Like it doesn't even affect me personally except some abstract way because I'm European but still. Is it ignorance? Stupidity? Like I get you can listen to Fox News all day or the even more fringe ones... but isn't there a choice? Get outta here
fox news is their religion. have you ever tried to logic someone out of their religion? its fucking impossible.
What is that old adage? You cannot reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into...
