Anyone still defending ICE would have defended Nazis.

Trump and Republicans are literally using Hitler's playbook.

#3 The reality is, Clown, that they are still defending Nazis.

1933-1945 Nazis.

Today's Nazis.

I once had a neo-nazi client ask if he could crash at my house while his jury trial was ongoing. I told him that I vigorously represent him in court but that does not mean I like him or want anything to do with him. He still thanked me profusely when the jury found him not guilty of the most serious charges.

"Anyone still defending ICE would have defended Nazis."

I would normally call statements like this hyperbole, but given all the recent indefensible events IDGAF anymore. The US taxpayers are going to be paying out the nose for decades for all the corrupt and unconstitutional abuses.

It's all the world as if US citizenship don't mean sh--.

Welcome to unmitigated illegal immigration ------, its what I have been saying since I have been here.

First, you'll complain about having to carry "papers". Then you don't carry "papers", and when law enforcement legally tries to ascertain your ID by detaining you, you'll complain they're "detaining citizens"

Its like you have no idea that's the plan ... to make you complain about "detaining US citizens" that choose not to carry ID.

You don't have to carry an ID, but your life just got a whole lot more difficult for no ------- reason.
You can carry a gun to a protest and obstruct a LEO, but your life just got a whole lot more ended because you did.

Just because something is legal, doesn't make it smart or NOT risky.

What's 'risky, Trump Toady, is letting a Fascist Admin run roughshod over US cities for political purposes.

Or maybe in your case, retiring to a country that demands a sample of your DNA for their Security Services.

@#10 ... letting a Fascist Admin run roughshod over US cities for political purposes. ...

Yup.

Even the Trump admin now seems to be realizing that.
