For tens of thousands of US service members with undocumented family members, there’s no guaranteed protection from immigration raids.

          not that I’m encouraging it but I’m kind of surprised that there hasn’t been more violent attacks on ice officers

          My comment is condemning the violence mentioned above, regardless of motive.

          Violent response vilifies the citizen against the officer ‘doing their job.’ That is leveraged to strengthen laws that protect officers, used as more propaganda to grow support for the right, and costs us another resister to incarceration.

          People need to stop suggesting response with emotion and read history. Small scale resistance against fascism has never been successful.

              I’m fully aware of your personal disclosure. That’s why I wrote “people” and not “you.” I was answering your question. Are you always condescending when you don’t understand the context of a reply?

                Oh man, this is the same guy that told me to stop saying what I want to say (oppress my right to free speech) and then resorted to childish name-calling (called me an ass). A bully just like trump. Dude’s all mixed up.

                I don’t care if someone disagrees with me. I’ll listen to someone who can make valid points, but that’s not what a bully does.

    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.

    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?

    “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.”
