Looking at the videos of the arrests that are going on with the "ICE" and supported PD's remind

me of the U.S. military we sent to Iraq and Afghanistan during the various "conflicts".

I was working at the corporate Hq of Alltel in Little Rock when the World Trade centers went down. Once it was decided to invade Iraq (cause you know poppa Bush had been disrepected), the number of guys that were signing up to go and kill some "rag heads". They wanted to taste the blood and see the drain from the "sand Nig***s".

The guys for the most part had very good paying jobs that they left for their bloodlust. That is the only way I can think of it as just wanted to kill and they did not care who.

These type guys have no place in the U.S. but now they have a new place to go to get their jolly's. And they get paid more for it and can go home every night. And ride around in comfort and do not have to worry about getting hurt any more.

We have a massive problem here that has not been addressed by any one at all.

They are bullying the people who have no defense against this. And they’re doing it in full body armor, Kevlar helmets, and armed to the teeth. yellow-bellied, lily-livered cowardice. They just enjoy pushing around weaker people. And they have their president to back them up because that’s what he enjoys. It’s sickening.
