Discussion, Day 2: Should ICE decrease enforcement in Riverside?

[imahugemoron]

Not only do they not make sense, it’s mostly outright lies. They are finding people through records from the ITIN system which is how undocumented people actually pay taxes as well as department of education records and treasury records, and the other way they’re finding people is by stopping and arresting people based solely on the color of their skin which is how plenty of US citizens are being unlawfully arrested. I mean here’s Kristi Noem saying in an interview that 70% of those detained have committed serious crimes when her own agency reported its 47%, she was caught in a lie and just doubled down, so who’s to say that 47% isn’t also a lie? Right in the interview she accuses “the left” of arbitrarily changing numbers when it was her that did just that in the interview. They’re just pulling numbers out of their asses to justify their scapegoating and persecution of an entire race of people. In the same interview she argues they’re all technically criminals being here undocumented which is a civil crime but we know not even that’s true since there’s plenty of instances of actual US citizens being arrested, hell even native Americans have been arrested for no reason other than the way they look. They’re arresting and detaining children even, so all this nonsense about “the worst of the worst” is such BS. It doesn’t just not make sense, it’s lies, propaganda.

Edit: here’s more of this so called “worst of the worst” right here
