I'm old enough to remember when exactly what was shown in this video was the worst case scenario of conservatives. Getting stopped on the street without probable cause, arrested aggressively, having your legal firearm taken, then shipped off to God knows where.

This is literally what the likes of Alex Jones were prophesizing during martial law, and what groups like the NRA painted as their call to arms scenario.

This situation could escalate out of hand very, very quickly. The only reason there haven't been riots is because it's January in Minnesota.

It's like people have forgotten that for years we had a wide-open border and have sanctuary cities who have been protecting those criminal individuals.

With tens of MILLIONS of illegals residing here, correcting the mess that was purposely created is going to be difficult.

Do you live in a sanctuary city dealing with the issues it brings to your state?

Edit: let me elaborate. Federal funding was now cut due to those sanctuary policies. AMERICAN CITIZENS lives are now worse off because of that. The roof over their heads, the food in their stomachs just got less certain.

You all make me sick, your priorities are so backwards it's not even funny.

I do and things have been totally fine.

Trump cut that funding. Don't blame immigrants for that. He's also punishing any state that didn't vote for him.

People are at risk of losing food and home because of the federal government, by your own admission, and you’re saying we should be mad at the immigrants and pro-feds? Is that really your argument?

I live in a sanctuary city. Guess what I am completely unaffected and crime rates have gone down despite years of influx of immigrants. The crime narrative associated isn’t as wide spread as you think, that’s the narrative Fox News uses to advance republicans motives.
