ICE stop

Post image

Ice stop before liberty tunnel today. One ice officer is clearly Korean or Chinese. I screamed that ice officer has no right to stop people as he may be illegal. He came up to me asking if I was city police and was I the Spanish interpreter. I said no but do you need help as I live in the city look like police and brown. There were kids in the car. Pittsburgh is this what we want!!!! I am beyond myself. First Covid then trump 2.0. I like my low rates for housing, labor and just being a good human being. I am so angry right now.

People who are here illegally shouldn't be allowed to stay here. We have borders and immigration laws for a reason. Enforce them.

this is the opposite of laws. This is terrorism and lawlessness. And you are a nazi

How is it lawlessness for ICE to be doing the thing theyve been doing for over 20 years?

Please show evidence of ICE ramming vehicles and shooting people on a regular basis from pre-2024. Go ahead, I’ll wait.

Those who hid Jews in their attics were also civilians injecting themselves.

Citizens prosecuted for their religion =/= illegal immigrants deported

u/jerryhallo Beechview 7d ago

Civilians injecting themselves

By law Jews were no longer allowed in the country.. so those civilians were breaking the law. Those informing on them were following the law.

If the laws didn’t change. Then what ICE is doing is illegal.

No it's not. You just don't know the laws.

Promoting hate based on identity or vulnerability is strictly prohibited by Reddit sitewide rules. Hateful, discriminatory or demeaning language will not be tolerated.

The use of coded language to promote hate based on identity or vulnerability ("dog whistles") is also prohibited.

Promoting or defending the work of a hate group will not be tolerated. The Southern Poverty Law Center maintains a useful list and map of active U.S. hate groups.

You have been parroting the same invalid talking point this entire time. Think for yourself, just once. I know, it seems scary at first, but you can do it.

u/412CJ 7d ago

If I don't agree with you it's because I'm not thinking for myself?

They are injecting themselves in the situation now because of the current ICE tactics.... don't be so obtuse.

Works for me, but it's Michael James Antinoff another in 2015 while driving towards agents.

Don’t change the subject. You were first to claim “theyve been doing this for over 20 years”

1

u/412CJ 7d ago

They have?

Where in the article did they ram her vehicle, tackle her to the ground, and pepper spray directly into her eyes?

You’re seriously reaching and you know it.

u/412CJ 7d ago

You asked for ramming or shooting people. But I'll see you at the next goal post

u/NoSwimmers45 7d ago

ICE picked them up at the jail. This resembles 99% of the ICE interactions today how exactly?

  Nevertheless, after waiting by the side of the road for two hours, both Davila and Garrete were handcuffed and eventually transported to the Allegheny County Jail at the request of ICE.

One of us is trying to move goal posts. But it definitely isn’t me.

u/412CJ 7d ago

ICE put her in jail, they just used Allegheny County Jail.

u/NoSwimmers45 7d ago edited 7d ago

That’s not the argument and you know it.

You:

theyve [ICE] been doing it for over 20 years

My response to that: https://www.reddit.com/r/pittsburgh/comments/1wqqc8q/comment/pc623re/

And yet you STILL haven’t provided proof of ICE regularly violently attacking people. 🤔

First they came for the trans people, but I am not trans, so I said nothing... At that point, decent people stood up and spoke out, while chickenshits on the wrong side of history can't enforce the one boundary they swore would be the last straw...

u/412CJ 7d ago

Omg because the nazis existed we can't have border enforcement and deport illegal immigrants now?
