ICE at the voting booths
Liberals are freaking out that ICE agents might show up at voting and polling booths. They fear that ICE will chill participation.


What an odd thing to say.

I did wonder if ICE started that fire in Washington just so they could detain people without paperwork on them while firefighting.
this is the only place where ice should be showing up

Almost as odd as a grown man liking MLP 🤣

If they aren't there illegally, then they have nothing to fear

Illegal aliens can't vote tho. So they won't be near the voting locations. No reason to be worried.
Golly gee. I guess when I go to vote I better take an ID. Or, at the very least, not forget my own name and birth date. I could get detained otherwise!

From the first article linked above:

"A U.S. citizen was arrested in Florida for allegedly being in the country illegally and held for pickup by immigration authorities even after his mother showed a judge her son’s birth certificate and the judge dismissed charges. "
who else read that as boobs?
I have never seen ice at the voting booths, but I have seen water.

Have you seen ICE? They are a lawless bunch of thugs that tend to shoot rubber bullets at the US Journalists and attack US Citizens from behind for just filming/mouthing off at them...

I mean it does, but it also says this:

The charge of illegal entry into Florida was dropped Thursday after his mother showed the judge his state identification card, birth certificate and Social Security card, said Kennedy, who attended the hearing.

Court records show Judge Lashawn Riggans found no basis for the charge.

False arrests happen sometimes, and not just under the Trump administration.

Data analytics show that I.C.E. incorrectly identified 2,840 U.S. citizens as illegal immigrants in the 2002 to 2017 period, with 217 of them being taken into custody.[www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org] That's 189⅓ incorrectly identified citizens and 14.46 being taken into custody per year on average.

What I find more concerning is not that citizens are occasionally being arrested. That is why we have a judiciary branch. What I find concerning is that that the arrest was made without cause, and that Trump is cutting down on due process.

I like how the longer this goes on, it really shows it isn't about actual illegal immigrants.

Just about not being white.

I was expecting to defend ICE / Security here. I hope Dean Cain remembers the values he taught people in Superman show and takes them to his role in ICE.

1st : looks like a Crime has just been committed against the reporter.
That ICE could see she was a reporter and aimed to hit her.

2nd : 37 seconds in, he gets attacked from behind and I strongly say to people do not do that as you do not know any preexisting conditions a person may have. Also If you are to use physical restraint / Force ALWAYS keep yourself in control of what is happening to the other person. * civilian matters note. That attack on him then could have seriously damaged him there was no control of the body, his head could have smacked into the ground. - it can take very little to do permanent damage to a person and also risk of long term effects possibly life long effects that are not apparent at the time.
A lot of gas is used there and very concerning. Limited visibility.
If I was security in that situation I would consider myself compromised by other people in the team. Not a good look, if anybody is going into security, look at that and take note do not get involved in actions as that. Train and educate yourself to handle a team / situation much better.
Very badly done.

3rd : its a news report.

I know people are going to defend ICE.
I am stating that is not the way to handle things especially in a democracy.

Okay, now consider the massive benefit from preventing illegals from voting.
