    The most batshit insane thing about this whole ice and immigration nonsense is that about 99% of Americans do not want a Gestapo running the streets under the guise of getting rid of immigrants. I am so sick and tired of supposed politicians who are supposed to be representing the American people and the people’s will, just doing whatever the fuck they want. Sure, a small minority of Americans really love the Gestapo aspect of torturing people who are undocumented (which by the way is a misdemeanor, it’s paperwork for fucksake) it’s really sad and pathetic that people support this.

      The most batshit insane thing is that not a single bullet has been launched in their direction. Masked, armed men, no uniform, no warrants, beating, kidnapping and killing with utter impunity.

      Totally not related, but anyone can buy their gear, including the POLICE patch on Amazon. These people could be anyone.

        Gang tactics. They roll up on one person and harass them while brandishing weapons at anyone nearby. I’d love to see a few unmasked posthumously but they can radio for backup and your average citizen cannot.
