without showing a warrant

I'm so tired of the legalist caveat, implying a Trump judge rubber stamping warrants for these gestapo shits would have made kidnapping and torturing a woman and her infant child acceptable.

But it does highlight that any random brute could put on a mask and do this with no authorization whatsoever. It's a fundamental human-rights and rule-of-law breakdown to fail to present a warrant. I agree that a warrant doesn't ethically make the arrests anything short of monstrous, though. That kind of legalist can suck eggs.

I believe this a part of the plan.

The woman’s teen daughter was left holding the woman’s baby and stood in front of the car in an apparent attempt to stop it. After handing the child to another person, she allegedly kicked the car—and was also reportedly arrested on four charges, including child endangerment. Police have not disclosed what happened to the baby afterward.

fuck you

[-] [email protected] 105 points 1 month ago

Yeah, police have a ton of latitude when they decide who to press which charges on and who they just let go with warnings or whatever, choosing to throw child endangerment at this girl is just straight up trolling

[-] [email protected] 70 points 1 month ago

Like getting blood on a uniform and getting 'assaulting an officer' added

[-] [email protected] 45 points 1 month ago

And the mayor had the audacity to say they don't agree with what ICE did.

That's great, but maybe get your police force to stop enabling their actions.

“We don’t have to show you anything,” one agent reportedly shot back when asked for ID or a warrant.

Actually, yea. You do. Or its just assault and kidnapping. Official paperwork is not privileged or secret. That idiot should be fired along with his chain of command.

Helpful neighbor: "No, I'm with ICE and I'm arresting you motherfuckers."

*We all get to pretend to be ICE or whatever the fuck if there's no requirement to prove who you are

No. They do no matter what. Once they tread on the Fourth the grumblings about resistance, rebellion, or revolt become a legal defense of our Constitutional rights. These people immediately get "promoted" and become a demest8c threat to the Constitution. It would then become open hunting season on ICE, with defending the Constitution becoming the legal defense. The only reason it hasn't happened yet is because ICE is targeting weak willed areas. They are moving fast and they also happen to be getting a large percentage of illegals with only occasional "mistakes".

[-] [email protected] 41 points 1 month ago

We don't know if they're actually getting any "illegals"

Big, strong, well trained men in tactical gear pushing, threatening and arresting women and children ..... and they wouldn't go into any actual threatening situations to deal with actual violent crimes.

Bunch of cowards going after the weakest in society ..... classic yellow bellied fascism.

Looks like Germany during the 1940s, when people were also dragged from their homes. Good luck y'all

The people opposed to ICE aren't the ones that buy the guns.

[-] [email protected] 48 points 1 month ago

I don't think that's correct. Plenty of us on the left have firearms, we just don't make it our entire personality.

“We don’t have to show you anything,” one agent reportedly shot back when asked for ID or a warrant.

“The crowd was unruly,” police said in a statement, claiming several individuals “put their hands on federal agents and Worcester officers.”

There's no reason to believe that they're federal agents if they refuse to show ID. And there's no law against putting your hands on gang members kidnapping one of your neighbors while impersonating federal agents. These dipshits are out of control and fucking stupid.

[-] [email protected] 44 points 1 month ago

I’m just pleading for them to do this to the wrong set of people who take 2A seriously.

If you are ICE, fuck you. You should be ashamed. Your parents should be ashamed

If you are someone who stands by while these cosplayers are kidnapping and torturing people, then you deserve your place in hell

So kidnapping and the police are in on it?

[-] [email protected] 57 points 1 month ago

In some cities they are working with ICE, yes.
You can search for which cities formally have an agreement with ICE here:

Can't wait till people start shooting ICE and the police on sight because they were pushed too far.

[-] [email protected] 66 points 1 month ago

I'm genuinely surprised it hasn't happened yet. They're probably staying out of the most sketchy neighborhoods.

[-] [email protected] 37 points 1 month ago

They're also usually relying on secrecy and speed. The way they quietly stopped and surrounded that innocent grad student, masked up, and kidnapped her so smoothly was terrifying.

[-] [email protected] 32 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

This is exactly it. They're specifically targeting people they know can't or won't fight back, like literal kids with cancer.

How does America have so many cowards willing to do this job?

[-] [email protected] 54 points 1 month ago

I've known plenty of them. They sign up specifically because they want to do this job. Rember the dumb bullies from school? Imagine what happens when they grow up.

Maybe installing a government run by neo-Nazis was a bad idea?

Why aren't Americans shooting at ICE agents. It's that what the 2nd amendment was for?

Soooo those 2nd amendment rights are a joke? Guns were bought just to show off at the range and with buddies?

Trump and his cronies are gonna get your guns its not a matter of if but when.

Rise the fuck up.

[-] [email protected] 32 points 1 month ago

Trump doesn't need to come after guns. It's pretty obvious at this point that nobody is using them or ever will. Americans may talk tough about guns but they aren't a threat to the fascists.

There needs to be a citizens APB tool so when this happens people can swarm the scene and block them from leaving or backup entering.

So they build an infrastructure, hire a lot of people, get the legal cover they need, deport millions...

Then they have this whole process ready to go with no immigrants left to deport.

Do you think it all gets shut down? Detention centers closed, ICE agents fired, etc?

Or will they feed the new machine with other groups? LGBT? Muslims? Political opponents?

Just food for thought.

In a different part of the world, about 90 years ago, dealing with undesirable people started with prototyping the framework on the weakest individuals.

People with mental disabilities would be shipped to the other end of the country, and there be gassed. Those gassings were in some cases proof of concept for the use of various gasses later on.

I do see the similarities. But I don't believe that the US administration is actively exterminating immigrants. But "at least they're not genocidal" is a pretty low fucking bar to clear. And I'm not sure that we've seen it all yet.

If I was living in the US, I'd get out ASAP. I mean sell my house, even at loss, and GTFO. If being latino with a knuckle tattoo will get you shipped to an El Salvadorian torture prison, what will happen when you post a comment about Trumpaloompa?

They won. They got exactly what they wanted, plus anybody who tried to intervene got arrested along the way. From the headline I thought it would be more like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZcoXdZeabA . There's still massive problems here and our version of ICE have got away with a lot but thankfully nowhere near this stage

[-] [email protected] 40 points 1 month ago

It's better that we're all arrested rather than do nothing but watch.

Once upon a time, in a distant land, a person arrived near a police vehicle while a crowd surrounding the vehicle was argumentative and loud. They dropped a few caltrops and nudged them under the wheels with their toe.

Once upon a time, in a distant land, a guy with a cordless drill disabled some police vehicles in a speed-run. Sadly they had no RC car to mount it on (note: some cleanliness, testing and engineering skills required) or they could have called it a "rig" and proclaimed "drill, baby, drill".

The one story I read had the person doing those things leaving their phone at home and wearing things to shield their face. Some of the stories I've heard also include the main character putting a small rock in their shoe in order to alter their gait to avoid potential detection based on it.

Cool stories...

Joseph Petty call and write the mayor and demand all charges dropped and these people released.

[-] [email protected] 38 points 1 month ago

Also arrested was Ashley Spring, a Worcester School Committee candidate and local resident, who police say pushed officers and threw an “unknown liquid” on them.

At least someone in the group stood up to them. If there's a go fund me I'll definitely donate.
