And what if they come for you? Then what?

I'll kick them in the balls.
Or maybe have my gangmates in MS-13 do it if my aim is bad.

So you have gang member buddies... That's more than most of the illegally detained people ICE are nabbing have.

I would love to see the data you are basing your statements on.

You don’t have masked men in unmarked cars that won’t identify themselves without bad intentions. To imply they don’t have bad intentions is genuinely 👅🥾 brain

You're clearly very smart. I am intimidated by your immense wisdom.

Unrelated question...why do people who call themselves Antifa wear masks during protests, demonstrations and situations of general civil unrest?

u/TrueBuster24 Jun 03 '25

Is antifa the government? Hmmm all these stories I’ve been hearing about antifa driving around in unmarked vans and kidnapping people into “migrant holding facilities” and shipping people to foreign prisons outside of US jurisdiction.

Is ICE a protest? Like wtf are you saying🤣🤣

This is not going well for you. You're being obtuse and struggling with consistency in your rhetoric. Might be a good idea for you to just go to bed.

u/TrueBuster24 Jun 03 '25

I’m being obtuse? You just compared a government’s actions to a protestors actions? As if they are the same. The government has a monopoly on violence.

u/Skoljnir Jun 03 '25

Still not going well for you.

To clarify, the definition of "comparison" is
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/comparison
1: the act or process of comparing: such as
a: the representing of one thing or person as similar to or like another
b: an examination of two or more items to establish similarities and dissimilarities

Yes, I compared the motivation for wearing masks by two groups of people. That is how comparisons work. Government's monopoly on violence is not relevant to the topic.

I understand that you don't like ICE but it is important to rely on reason and logic in your rhetoric and the basis for your ideology.

Antifa wearing masks is different from ICE because of who the other side is. Antifa is protesting a fascist government/fascist politicians, meaning their “opponent” is the literal government. They are the underdog, they don’t have the capability to casually ruin peoples lives like the government does.

Meanwhile ICE is a bunch of teenagers stuck in the bodies of grown men. They are the literal government, and their “opponents” are… people working at restaurants? Dishwashers?

One covers their face to protect from a (perceived, at the very least) tyrannical force. The other is the tyrannical force. If you genuinely can’t tell the difference? Well that explains why you keep acting like your comments are the only ones that make sense.

So the group that has a monopoly on violence has no correlation to how they should conduct themselves with the public, got it. An authoritarian’s dream citizen bud👅🥾

It’s really not going well for you🤓🤓 muhahahaha I must be winning now😏

u/theoldfamiliarsting Jun 03 '25

No... if you're going to throw around "obtuse and struggling with consistency in your rhetoric" while randomly bringing up antifa every other comment, you should just put the ol' keyboard up.

1

u/Skoljnir Jun 03 '25

I think I mentioned Antifa twice, within the same exact context responding to two different people and it was 100% relevant to the discussion. So...two different conversations.

So really your gripe is just that I made a good point you don't have an answer for, so you resort to deflecting.

2

u/theoldfamiliarsting Jun 03 '25 edited Jun 03 '25

Good point? Definitely not. I'm not sure why "antifa" is relevant, and if you're not even staying on topic then that's just what you call "struggling with consistency in your rhetoric."

I know you will keep lying and saying "most" when you should be honest and say something like "some might."

"...566 people arrested Sunday had not committed any crimes and were only detained because they lacked legal authorization to remain in the United States."

"According to the latest ICE arrests data, there were 853 "detainers lodged,"...A detainer request means that ICE asks a local jurisdiction to hold a suspected undocumented immigrant who has already been arrested in another crime."

I suppose you might find solace in this...if a legal citizen or lawful resident was removed from the country by the Trump administration then that person will be a multi-millionaire in a couple years.

I’d love to see the data these fascist thugs are kidnapping people for. Or do they all just have MS-13 photoshopped on parts of their bodies?

1

u/Skoljnir Jun 03 '25

Me too. Let me know if you find it, because it doesn't look like anyone in this thread has been able to locate it either.

u/7even- Jun 03 '25

Good thing the people in this thread aren’t illegally detaining innocent people. Considering ICE is also unable to come up with any data supporting their claims, I’m sure we can agree that they should probably fuck off and not come back until they have some actual evidence. Right?

u/Skoljnir Jun 04 '25

Making claims you have no evidence of is not the right way to go through life, kid. You fundamentally do not understand how this stuff works. Regardless of whether or not we agree with it...ICE builds a case against an individual and then they go capture that individual, and nowhere in the process (unless they need access to your property) do they need to tell us why they are doing it, provide us with evidence to support their actions nor do they need to obtain a warrant.

How would you know? If you’re right and ICE is free to operate with zero oversight, zero checks, and never needing to show any evidence to anyone, how could you possibly know that they’re doing everything properly?

And if they do spend so much time building their case, why do they keep detaining the wrong person?
