I support neither side. But common sense and perspective has to override the pretense of what is taking place. MN is currently 2% of total US deportations, TX is over 20%. Where are “American patriots” protecting their neighbors interfering, agitating and protesting in these non sanctuary cities? Let’s be real. The “protesters” being arrested in each of these cities across the US aren’t residents of those cities. They are paid. How are a 1000+ people showing up with matching $200+ gas masks immediately to incident events consistently? Shame how saturated we’ve become with knee jerk reactions due to over saturation of falsities perpetrated by the media and social media. Shame on human condition to react how we do, be so ignorant and inconsiderate to actual humans. Hell, humans care more about wolves “supposedly” killing elk. Pathetic.
Do I agree with people being profiled? Absolutely not, just as I don’t agree with people calling conservatives fascists nazis. It’s all propaganda and the minority has bought into it. Let’s be real, the “majority” get up, go to work, care for their family and are NOT going to go to a protest armed, blowing whistles, honking horns, blocking roadways of a law enforcement operation and feel they may putting their life or freedom on the line. It’s absurd and nonsense. Common sense tells a sane person I am not going to put myself in that situation.
If local officials worked with federal investigations, ie; last known addresses, criminal records, associates, etc, etc.. then provided crowd control or a perimeter where federal officers could perform operations without constant aggression which they are harassed, doxed, berated, assaulted while trying to detain illegal people in this country we wouldn’t have any of this happening. Put yourself in their situation, if you were trying to find the loopholes of the IRS for your client, meanwhile 100s of people were blowing, whistles, pulling your chair, turning off your CPU, recording you, calling you a racist, nazi, etc. This mental health crisis is real in the US.
I am Independent, I know both sides are lying. I know all the wasteful spending and corruption will continue by both sides. But I sure as F am not going put myself or family interfering with a law enforcement situation whether it be a stranger or my own. Comply and fight in court.
Purposely interfere with any law enforcement “just because”… you IMO deserve the outcome.
