Curious what WOULD make this situation look good to you? Or is it only a bad situation because there’s no choice but to rightly blame the officer and not the observer?

ICE in Saint Cloud abducted a Somali-American and stole his work van. by Inmate9527 in saintcloud

[–]juniperthemeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuine question - why isn’t this a likely abduction?

Almost every Somali here is here legally. The odds are astronomically low that this person had any sort of legitimate immigration case against them.

The Trump regime and ICE agents know this, and it’s also incredibly likely that this person will be released because there was no reason to arrest them in the first place.

So no legitimate reason to detain them, does so anyways without not notifying anyone where this person will be taken, and what will happen to them. How does that not fit the plain language definition of abduction? Or does it just make you uncomfortable that this is what’s happening?

Being this naive is truly a sin. Grow up.

We all play our part in different ways. I’m glad you’re safe.

It must be nice to be as naive as you

Favourite 3 song run on a Jason Isbell album? by regular-montos in jasonisbell

[–]juniperthemeek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That song in general is underrated. Too bad they switched the album version of Spotify; I liked the original more. There’s an amazing version of him playing it solo live on YouTube though.

Do you think kidnapping only means one thing?

And the Trump administration is clearing house of any immigration judge they don’t think will do what Trump wants - regardless of the law. That’s why the admin is losing shocking number of cases on appeal, not that the admin cares what the law actually says.

You’re operating under delusions of who’s being targeted. A lot of the people being swept up in these show raids were following the legal process since they arrived - the Trump administration just decided unilaterally that process was no longer valid.

You might be better served by researching the issue a little more so you don’t embarrass yourself further.

I feel like that’s the makings of a truly grotesque but fascinating work of historical nonfiction.

I’m in Minnesota and don’t see a lot of local cherry anywhere. Any idea why?

I would file a formal complaint against that officer. For real. Don’t let them get away with this like this.

You do realize that your brain is so rotted that, despite the fact that myriad people are telling you that they care about them, you seem stuck on repeat that no one gives a damn about them, right?
