Don Winslow: "THIS is how you deal with ICE!!"

While we still are - somewhat - a country adhering to the Rule of Law...

Qualified immunity:
"A U.S. legal doctrine shielding government officials, including police, from personal liability in civil lawsuits for constitutional rights violations, UNLESS their conduct violated a clearly established Right."

My spouse wants to donate to the ACLU but is concerned about his name going on a Trump "list" that will later result in arrests. Legitimate concern?

and always, always exert your 1st and 4th Amendment rights.
And, I can't stress this enough, always film the cops, if you don't, sure as hell, they'll violate your Constitutional rights and it ends up your word against theirs and we all know who the courts are going to believe.
