12. And it will probably get worse before it gets better

It is just too easy for low-life scum to impersonate other low-life scum and no need for warrants or ID.

5. "immigrants far less likely to commit crimes than U.S. citizens"

Yes, because they want to remain in the U.S., they are terrified of being deported, so they hunker down and work hard.

16. maybe it's just in the numbers too.

immigrants aren't criminals as a rule; they don't need to be afraid to play by the rules. Some of them won't. Same with most Americans.

[sakabatou]

7. We knew this would happen.

We can't trust ICE whatsoever. No one can.

13. It's so terrible, scary America and for what?

[barbtries]

14. the DA got up

15. I think they are ALL pretending to be ICE

I think that NONE of the thugs doing the actual dirty work of rounding people up are employed by ICE. I think ICE has contracted that work iut to private firms, so that they can claim that ICE agents never mishandled anyone. It was all done on their behalf by hired goons.

So, what’s the difference between a real hired goon and a fake hired goon? One robs your freedom, while the other robs your money. It’s probably not always clear which is easier to replace.

[Scalded Nun]

17. Gee, if there was a way to identify the ICE agents. Oh, wait...

[Amaryllis]

18. "The guy in DC is not helping. He's the problem."

[Initech]

19. The absolute fucking hell that Trump and Fox have unleashed on us.

[Mz Pip]

20. Tip of the iceberg

I suspect this is happening far more often than is being reported. Immigrants are scared and aren’t going to go to the cops after being robbed or assaulted. They are easy pickings for criminals with a fake ICE shirt.
