Illegal immigration is a relatively minor offense, to the point of being trivial in a legal sense. Devoting this much time and effort into ruthlessly hunting them down and putting them in camps is an overreaction.

In fact it's such an overreaction it's not hard to read racial motives into sending SWAT teams to sanctuary cities.

Not a difficult concept.

You may laugh, but they're not preparing to raid sanctuary cities because there's a pressing need to round up illegal immigrants, they're doing it because their boss is very mad at sanctuary cities.

Does anyone really believe that ICE are going to conduct raids in sanctuary cities based on a pragmatic analysis of the best possible use to which they can put their limited resources?

Outside of extreme circumstances, probably not. After all, the cities have made it their responsibility, have they not ;)

Actually it does:

You should be the one feeling ashamed of yourself for not bothering to keep track of the thread, but I have a feeling like your President Trump you're incapable of feeling shame.

So then it can only be that they are going to conduct these raids because that is what Trump wants. Because he is very mad at sanctuary cities.

They are whisking away political dissidents into death camps or outright shooting them twice in the back of the head out in secluded areas?

Hello everyone, currently I have a 3-page essay due at 5PM tomorrow which I have barely started.

On the other hand, I've spent the last 2 hours brainstorming and making graphic art for my nation. Clearly I'm a high-IQ genius when it comes to time management

Edit: Wrong thread, I thought this was the TET thread.

I find it funny that America's immigration control arm is being compared to a secret police for enforcing immigration law, as opposed to the NSA which is running wire and internet taps that would make the Stasi proud or the CIA for running black sites and who have, quite literally, performed Nacht und Nebel, across the world.

Cool story, can't confirm if it's actually relevant because I don't want to make an account.
