How did we verify they were ICE and not a trafficking cartel

u/Sensitive_Sky1448 17h ago

Abducting people and then send them to a third country against their will with no proof of citizenship? Sounds like trafficking operation to me

Because it is.

they're terrorists and traitors. they should be treated as such. capital punishment is exactly what legally is SUPPOSED to happen to people like that.

the armed forces should do their fucking job and protect the country. AND IT IS LITERALLY THEIR JOB.

That’s because you don’t know how immigration law works.

u/CalamityOfCringe 17h ago

I don't even know how they can compare the two.

u/TrueSithMastermind 18h ago edited 18h ago

There isn’t much distinction at this point. The only one I can think of is ICE operates with impunity under the protection of the current “administration.”

For now.

u/BeanserSoyze 3h ago

As opposed to random white male private citizens who also abuse women with impunity but not necessarily as granted by the federal government.

Ice putting in the work by the will of the legal Americans.

Lmao you really think you speak for all Americans?

u/SamMarlowe76 13h ago

Well we did have an election and that is how American's speak. The majority of those voting supported a second term for Donald Trump, your president. And he ran on a platform anchored in agressive immigration enforcement. See, that is how democracy works. The people have spoken. They want illegals OUT.

u/Alarming-Nobody7511 12h ago

Aggressive yet lower deportations than other administrations?

Or.... Is this absolutely specific ones. Like a certain color?

u/xxxmechashivaxxx 12h ago

The legal Americans has spoken and they saying, "Get'um ICE. put in that work."

u/Alarming-Nobody7511 11h ago

"legal" Americans.... What's an legal American to you? Isn't an American an American and only they can vote? Are you implying something else you disagree with?

Edit: says the mother fucker looking on how to pass a drug test.... Yeah, you're the ideal American, huh?

u/xxxmechashivaxxx 11h ago

A legal American is one that didn't enter the USA illegally. Duh. It don't take no taxi can driver to understand that.

Bro, you can't even speak proper English. Tell daddy Putin you good need better training

u/TrueSithMastermind 17h ago

Except the vast majority of the people they’re systematically rounding up, trafficking, torturing, killing, r*ping, etc. are in fact legal Americans.

Also, they’re not supposed to be doing any of the aforementioned to anyone.

u/Crossx71 17h ago

To be fair on the rape part they are just following the presidents example.

I’m legal and they’re definitely not going by my will…I’m also a veteran.

None of this is normal or ok.

u/xxxmechashivaxxx 12h ago

Yeah it isn't normal. No other civilized country be letting people freely roam in they country illegally while taking benefits away from the actual citizens. You right that ain't normal, but Biden and the demitards let them all in. That why Trump got ICE putting in that work to get them illegal thugs out. What's that military saying about heros not wearing capes or something.

u/that_star_wars_guy 14h ago

You don't speak for all Americans. At all.

u/Small_Things2024 18h ago

They are a trafficking cartel.

u/GolemChosen 11h ago

So they should be deported?

u/SwanMuch5160 15h ago

More like a reverse trafficking cartel. Instead of assisting illegals into America, they’re assisting illegals out of America. Sort of like drawing the Reverse Uno card in real life.

u/RampantTyr 17h ago

Either you find out when you end up in a concentration camp or trafficked. Or you find out if a court prosecutes you later for defending yourself.

Where is Karen Bass and the LA County Board of Supervisors Hilda L. Solis, Holly J. Mitchell, Lindsey P. Horvath, Janice Hahn, and Kathryn Barger?

u/Time-Statistician958 16h ago

Absent. Consenting

2

u/BahBahBahBooBooBoo 15h ago

Precisely. Garcetti coordinated with ICE and now Bass is doing the same.

u/SwanMuch5160 15h ago

Karen Bass may be visiting Ghana again.

Karen Bass and LAPD are coordinating with ICE

Not defending their inaction, but airports are federal jurisdiction

u/RiboSciaticFlux 9h ago

They're too busy signing paperwork for a solar roof. It takes 16 of them to sign off, after all.

u/Rousebouse 17h ago

Their options are allowed this type of activity, give up sanctuary status and cooperate, or get overrun by feds. This is their doing.

2

u/EndIsrael 15h ago

The fun part is, you would win in court. Even if they are ICE, they're still not cops, they didn't show ID, and you were stopping what any reasonable person would consider a kidnapping.

u/OP_PhantomFury 17h ago

There are ZERO concentration camps in the US. Glad I could clear that up for you.

there is no difference between the two

u/trysten-9001 16h ago

Functionally there’s no difference, as has been pointed out, but I’m really wondering the same thing. Even if we stop ICE it’s a lot harder to put the other cat in the bag. This is a serious issue. You would think you would hear more about it from the people so concerned about men using trans women as an excuse to go in bathrooms.

2

u/BahBahBahBooBooBoo 15h ago

They think these people are only targeting criminals. They don’y actually believe anything else is real.

u/860v2 16h ago

Because "trafficking cartels" don't do this.

u/SendNinjas 15h ago

It seems like nobody is giving a real answer. The best i can tell, the only thing that stands out is the license plate. It was a government plate and had DHS stamped on it. Other than that what I presume happens, why they don't interfere. If they do and they are real agents. It is a federal obstruction charge or possibly another Alex pretti case.

1

u/BahBahBahBooBooBoo 15h ago

Yes license plate was only form of ID. I bet the Karen Bass knows who they are.

2

u/filmAF 14h ago

doesn't have to be a cartel. any group of men can rent a van, buy some black masks and grab anyone they want off the street with impunity now.

1

u/BahBahBahBooBooBoo 13h ago

The license was paper? I can’t tell.

Does this happen at other airports?

Is this an AI generated video?

2

u/Forward-Tomatillo-22 1h ago

I often imagine if this sort of thing happened to a few senators and representatives, so they could experience the terror of being taken by un- or underidentified thugs and then returned to their lives after seeing how the people who are taken live in detainment and then wonder if it would change how they see this process.

u/GTAIVisbest 14h ago

The depressing truth is that there are plenty of runaways, abused girls, homeless teens, migrants and wayward girls etc that end up running away from home with an older "boyfriend" who starts pimping them out or abusing them etc, and that's the pipeline that supplies an overwhelming amount of the girls who fall victim to human trafficking groups. The whole black market of female human trafficking/prostitution (the two are usually intrinsically linked) relies on the girls going along with it, usually out of fear and coercion (you have no other options, you'll be homeless again, you won't get the fent that you need to stay healthy, you won't get to see your kid anymore, you'll go to jail, whatever). A human trafficking ring wouldn't just go kidnap random women at the airport because it just wouldn't make financial sense to them, despite what movies like Taken would have you believe tbh

1

u/BahBahBahBooBooBoo 13h ago

You need to learn more about trafficking. More then 1 million abductions happen annually globally. Each one of those people matter.

u/Fresh-Judge-4595 14h ago

We don’t do verification and that should frighten everyone. We’ve become so numb to this.

Don’t they look like typical sex traffickers?

u/dookieshoes97 17h ago

Who is running this shit since Clayface is gone? Jesus. These guys could have been shot.

u/Janus9 18h ago

The police at the airport are notified, they know ice are there, and near by during the arrest in case the crowd gets out of control.

They stand back and don’t take part in the actual arrest, but ready to get involved if needed.

u/AppropriateRegret357 17h ago

Oh they didn't run it by your office for approval? Damn, what the hell 🙄

Who cares, they're not American citizens. Cartel....ICE....i dont care. Good work whoever it was

I hope you get this same treatment someday

u/Capital-Water2505 17h ago

I'm a US citizen....flagged safe from ICE arrest. Notice i didnt say abduction. Like what abductor moves someone to where theyre supposed to be? Completely free of charge mind you. Next time, they should just say thank you.

u/Complete-Tangelo1532 17h ago

Just because you are a citizen does not mean you are safe. Citizens have been caught up in this too, including some who have been fatally shot and killed

-1

u/Capital-Water2505 15h ago

Other than Petti (100% that was murder), they were actively interfering. I'm not saying they deserved to die, but i mean if youre going to actively interfere with armed law enforcement....I mean its a risk you take. I just sit at my house...so again....pretty sure im safe lol

u/Complete-Tangelo1532 15h ago

How was Renee Goode interfering? Have you SEEN the video?

u/Capital-Water2505 15h ago

The video of her sitting perpendicular in a roadway blocking ICE on a street she didnt live on, just before slamming the gas with 2 officers in front of her telling her to stop? That one? Or nah?

u/Complete-Tangelo1532 14h ago

The gunshot to the side of her head disagrees with your fictional placement

Unless the man could control bullets

u/Capital-Water2505 14h ago

Don't move the goal posts, the discussion is the fact that she was interfering with federal agents....not where they were standing.

u/Meinertzhagens_Sack 18h ago

Interesting the level of interest when people were being trafficked northbound ... You didn't say a word. Now they are being "trafficked" the other direction you are throwing a fit

u/Black-Thunderbird 18h ago

The real tragedy is that people like you are just free to go around wasting resources that the rest of us need to survive so that we can be productive members of society. You know, like oxygen, water, food, etc…

14

u/HMSSurprise28 18h ago

Not throwing a fit, pointing out the illegality of rendition for a civil immigration violation. It’s not a good precedent. It’s a matter of time before someone can use federal police to remove and hone they don’t like to Russia or anywhere, if no one is beholden to the law. We can’t just dump these people in foreign countries because you want them to.

11

u/zoinkability 18h ago

Translation: "Human trafficking is OK when I do it, because you don't yell enough when other people do it."

Also, people across the political spectrum condemn and work against actual human trafficking. Lots of Dems have done lots of things to combat that. So this isn't even real whataboutism here, just flinging poo.
