And the same day of opening Captain cluster fuck Trump answers a question about deporting certain US citizens like "we'll look into it"...with a straight face. They just allocated a record 140 billion to go to ICE and its collateral collection of brown people...let's just call it what it is...and we went from deporting a stated "hard criminals, known gang members and the worst of the worst" to literally deporting 64 years old grandmothers, wives of disabled military veterans, married couples studying for their PhDs, combat veterans who served honorably etc etc in a matter of 5 months. The majority of whom have committed no crimes here stateside and hitched up on some clerical expired green card and read today a couple more on 25 year old misdemeanor drug charges they were already arrested for and they put behind them. Paying your dues and seeking a better life means fuck all now I spose. They got a guy who saw a girl being attacked by a shark and he swan out, saved her...a few days later he is coincidentally pulled over for the horrific crime of no headlights and driving without a license and put into detainment for deportation. We are training overall law enforcement, local, to use a literal interpretation of the written law minus a needed case per case discretion and judgment. This will come with a massive boot on the neck effect. You don't go backwards from instilling a green light on that minds set and masked agents with no due process. And if local law doesn't abide and opposes the Governments immigration practices locally...well Trump wipes his ass with the constitution and mobilizes active-duty marines into the city, ala Los Angelas. Took over the National Guard ffs. This is called normalization and conditioning a citizenry to militarization. Biggest thing to get my head around now is how accepting most are with this mindset of mass collection. The open racism, not going to lie. I'm a rule of law guy but for fucks sake, all these "legal is legal" types running on meanwhile voting for a convicted felon :D. This isn't us. Sure as shit isn't the USA I grew up in. The once don't tread on me has now become tread harder daddy :p. Too much happening to be honest. You simply cannot get away from it day to day.
