“This expansion is a disastrous waste of billions of taxpayer dollars that will only line the coffers of the private prison industry,” said one ACLU attorney.

    I’m surprised ICE hasn’t been ambushed. That would be bad but I am surprised no one has given false information and lured plain clothed, insignia-less, ICE employees into a barn filled with explosives and blown them up. A very bad thing to do.

      easier ways to dispose of surplus “people” than rigging a barn to explode. At the end of the day, we are just blood balloon waiting to be popped, also I am sure those “people” have families that would would likely be easier targets, all you need to do is mimic their tactics, show up at school, churches, and hospitals, anywhere they feel safe is a good target

        There is absolutely no situation where targeting innocents is justified, otherwise you are as vile as the fascists, and your actions will only provide them with justification, and weaken the cause in the eyes of the civilian. You could certainly threaten the fascist with that to gain the upper hand, but civilians should always remain off limits, regardless of how low the fascist goes.

        There will always be more than enough legitimate military/political targets who have broken their oath and are “just following orders” from the dictatorship. Don’t get lazy or despotic.

          only a sith speaks in absolutes, also the previous post before this one was about how Israel has killed somewhere around 500 women and children and mass graved first responders for getting in the way of Israeli bullets, while due process has been paused in the US until further notice the post before that one

            Lol, “the fascists murder civilians so it’s okay” is not the hill to die on, but keep voicing your true colors!

              It always blows my mind how often i completely forget that the Nazis just saw the error of their ways and let everyone they’d imprisoned go. After a nice ice cream social, of course, just to let everyone know how sowwy dey were.

              Thanks for reminding me.

              E: a word

              it would be different if you were one of the people targeted i suppose and you are quite comfortable with them being murdered as long as you keep decorum maintained, that is the hill you are wanting to die on, decorum

          that is what the US is funding Israel to do, previous post had the amount of women and children around 500 killed, we do not know if the people the US is disappearing of the street and flying to other countries without due process are alive. I did not advocate for the murder of any babies, just pointing out that this is happening now with just a few of the tactics they are actively using against people they do not like.

          Critical thinking is difficult to maintain in the age of social media, dont let yours atrophy especially if you are someone they do not like.

            You quite literally did, without using those words. You said go after families

            You know what, I’m wasting my time. You know what you did, fuck off troll

              no, you just dont like that you’re initial comment was immature and not well reasoned. I hope you never have to make the decision of whether you are willing to let your family get disappeared. Or maybe you prefer to be the person says it is better to ignore it to protect that status quo,
