Yes, that’s what I was saying (though I guess if you’re Hispanic-looking and you live in a hot spot for ICE operations, it might be a pretty good idea to carry with you just in case).
Garcia said he was released from the vehicle where he was held after he gave the arresting officials his Social Security number, which showed he is a U.S. citizen.
Yeah, like I already said, if this was a genuine mistake on their part, as it appears to be, they should definitely have to pay for her damages, as well as any medical bills and missed time at work. No question about that.
Also, maybe the arresting “agents” should be sacked…? No? You have nothing for “agents” whose first instinct is always to be brutal, and to suppress others rights…?
I don’t think you are a nice or even decent person. Your neighbors must keep one eye on you, at all times.
Everyone makes mistakes sometimes. I know I do. I’m sure you do, too. But if we all just keep hating each other forever because of our past fuckups, you are closing all paths to redemption, and there’s no way anything will ever get better.
BS. Stop this garbage. ICE are nazi, racist criminals, and you are a nazi for supporting them. There is a point where redemption is no longer possible, and nazi is way past that point, nazi. I don’t want to get on with you or them, my standards are way higher than that. I don’t sleep with nazi hitlerpigs!
Ima just going to keep on hating you cunts, and maybe one day, I can do more than that…!
Aren’t you republicans always up in arms about having to show your papers like Soviet Russia? In a free country, you don’t have to do that. Being brown isn’t probably cause or reasonable suspicion.
We have such incredible law enforcement agencies, I’m sure they can find actual evidence through investigations that they don’t need this easy button of demanding everyone show their papers.
Forget the passport, that was a dumb idea. You can get a driver’s license with RealID (which is becoming the norm in most states anyhow), or if that doesn’t work, apparently giving them your SSN is enough for them to verify your citizenship status.
I am a US citizen, and I don’t have a passport. I’m white, so I don’t have anything to worry about. I have an adopted sister who is Hispanic though, and she doesn’t have one either. I’ve been trying to convince her to get one and keep it on her person.
We live in a red state, so we’re not an ICE hot spot like Chicago is. But they are still around. They are everywhere.
If she gets arrested and released, that would be bad. But how many people are being disappeared to foreign countries they aren’t even from? That’s my biggest fear
Valid fear. Though, I suspect that if that is happening, it likely doesn’t matter if she’s legal or not. She’s still brown. Which is clearly the criteria they’re working with.
And just so we’re clear, I’m NOT defending their actions. I’m just defining how they think. I happen to think how they think is disgusting.
Wut? Most citizens don’t carry their passports around in their home country.
Yes, that’s what I was saying (though I guess if you’re Hispanic-looking and you live in a hot spot for ICE operations, it might be a pretty good idea to carry with you just in case).
Oh yes, land of the free! Carry your papers or else something bad might happen.
What if they declare your passport fake like real IDs?
Did you actually read the article?
Forget the passport. Apparently it’s that easy.
Who’s paying for the vehicle damage?
What happens when the victim is late for work?
That doesn’t sound easy all.

First of all, she is driving a car. Carrying a license and proof of insurance is already mandatory in that case (and for good reason).
Second of all, how difficult is it to remember a single nine digit number? You’re making it seem a lot more difficult than it really is.
Dude!
Can you still feel yourself?

But we don’t live in fascism? You’re full of shit.
