Worst part is that Shirley was going through the process of naturalization and working to be here legally. Through a process the military had put in place for just this exact kind of thing.
She had no criminal record, has been here for a decade, and has faithfully reported for her hearings. Not to mention she is gainfully employed.
Why the fuck are we wasting time and resources deporting this person?
Because suffering and fear is the point
The even sicker part is that there is an entire cult worth of brainwashed racists all sitting around a table afterwards congratulating eachother for making America ““safe”” and saving their country.
I could throw a plate.
Because America put a deranged convict into, what is arguably the most powerful position in the world. Congress won’t challenge him, so he’s running amok while his party turns a blind eye to the obvious human rights violations that are constantly happening.
The whole “worst of the worst” line for who that are deporting is, and always has been a lie. They just want POCs to suffer and die because they’re Nazis.

That isn’t the point. The point is that a single heavily armed guard is enough to deter a hundred people from even trying to fight until they are desperate.
The point is that, even though those hundred people would win a fight, and even if they know it themselves, those hundred people are individuals. Unless they are desperate, none of those individuals are willing to stick their neck out to fight.
We see this in prisons. We saw this under slavery. We saw this in concentration camps. A few armed people are sufficient to suppress lots of unarmed people. Sometimes the unarmed revolt, and when they do, they often succeed if they are willing to take massive casualties. That doesn’t change the fact that they rarely try to revolt in the first place.

Until the slaves start facing starvation or hunger, they’ll never revolt.

Small-scale violence excites and emboldens fascism. It will not stop it.

not that I’m encouraging it but I’m kind of surprised that there hasn’t been more violent attacks on ice officers
My comment is condemning the violence mentioned above, regardless of motive.
Violent response vilifies the citizen against the officer ‘doing their job.’ That is leveraged to strengthen laws that protect officers, used as more propaganda to grow support for the right, and costs us another resister to incarceration.
People need to stop suggesting response with emotion and read history. Small scale resistance against fascism has never been successful.

I’m fully aware of your personal disclosure. That’s why I wrote “people” and not “you.” I was answering your question. Are you always condescending when you don’t understand the context of a reply?
Oh man, this is the same guy that told me to stop saying what I want to say (oppress my right to free speech) and then resorted to childish name-calling (called me an ass). A bully just like trump. Dude’s all mixed up.
I don’t care if someone disagrees with me. I’ll listen to someone who can make valid points, but that’s not what a bully does.

You’re a spectacular dick, aren’t you?
All I’m hearing is that we should be using large-scale violence.
We’ve done it before.
The OG Antifa?
Absolutely.
And honestly, I’m convinced that that generation more or less fully dying out in the last decade or so (and I mean across the western world, not just in the states) was a pretty direct cause of this fascist resurgence, because everyone who was a part of getting rid of fascism the hard way last time around is in the ground.
The thought does scare me and even though I’m pretty sure it has its critics, that 80 year cycle thing does make me wonder - given the (current) average human lifespan, there might be something to it.
All that wisdom dies off and has to be re-learned. Kind of like all the idiots learning about vaccines right now.
If we can get large scale protest, we won’t need violence.

This is just insane! And to leave the family in a lurch for 3 months?! That’s even worse.
Now off you go to genocide / die for the Israeli empire.
Israel first!
I am sure this guy thought, “Well it won’t happen to me…”, but sadly, Trumpism is happening to all of us.
“Correa expressed disappointment in the Trump administration, feeling betrayed after voting for him and serving the country, as he believed only violent criminals would be targeted.”
I wonder who he voted for.
This post says he voted for Trump
Tots and Prayers🙏
Ohh … ok in that case … I guess he learned something about his decisions…next he needs to learn that fire = hot and water = wet 😏
All sympathy to the innocent woman and child, but to the husband? YOU GET WHAT YOU VOTE FOR SCUMBAG. It’s unfortunate that an innocent woman and child you care about had to be affected, but fuck you.
Correa expressed disappointment in the Trump administration, feeling betrayed after voting for him…
Ya this guy and go eat shit
But on that morning in March, Guardado got a strange phone call at work. Some sort of public safety officer had dialed her office and wanted her to come outside to talk. In the parking lot, three men in plain clothes identified themselves as Department of Public Safety officers, Correa told The War Horse. As Shirly approached, they said her car had been involved in an accident. But when she got close, they grabbed her and handcuffed her, telling her they were ICE agents.
God damn this is scummy as hell.
I wonder what the chances are that someone who works for ice gets thier spouse carted off.
It wonder when two of them will try to deport each other.

I didn’t see it mentioned here or elsewhere what party the Sgt has a associated with, but it did mention the party (Democrat) of another officer. The omission of this speaks volumes though.
This other article mentions it:
