100s of ICE ARRESTS yesterday near my job, Jackson Heights, Queens, NYC

[brocktonblockbust]

The subway stations and the stairs leading down to the platforms, all of Roosevelt Avenue and other densely packed areas of Jackson Heights Queens were completely empty yesterday evening on my way back home as ICE had literally conducted dozens and dozens of separate raids in these Gray colored trucks which were not marked, in Jackson Heights, Queens and Elmhurst and Corona and Bushwick in Brooklyn and 90th Street by Broadway in Jackson Heights...it was completely raided and apparently several hundred Criminal illegal aliens with felons on their history were rounded up and deported. There are hundreds of activists roaming around on Roosevelt Avenue carrying thousands of printed flyers and photocopies of other material and randomly and desperately running up to people and handing out these flyers which are always written only in Spanish. Last night when I was halfway to the train station entrance a group of about 35 Hispanics some of them dressed like transvestites or perhaps some of them were transvestites we're running up to people on the sidewalk handing out these things so I reached out to take one and later on the train I read it and it contains the following information in Spanish.

"If an ICE agent knocks on your door you should hide in your house if you are undocumented and if you have no papers or your Visa has expired and you are in New York City working illegally you should not answer the door. You should not speak to the officers. If the ICE agents are let into your house you should tell them that you do not speak English and that you wish for any document to be translated first into your own language. You must request also to see a written court order with a judge's signature before you speak or interact with the ICE agents or the New York City Police Department who may be cooperating with them. If you run into any problems remember that you do not have to speak. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. If you have had a previous UCE order to leave the country then you should not answer any questions that you are asked."

And at the bottom of this flyer were the phone numbers of over 20 lawyers in Queens and Brooklyn and Staten Island and The Bronx and Manhattan who they should call immediately in Spanish or Chinese or Bangali if they require any assistance. I cannot believe that there are organizations in New York City and I mean lawyers and Council people and congressmen and Mayors who would actually condone and resist and violate Federal United States law by encouraging these illegal people to not open their doors and to not go to work today and to have a day in New York City and nationwide which is now being called a day without immigrants so that no immigrants will go to work or be on the subway platforms or be in the streets and they are encouraging them to stay home and hunker down. These people are committing high treason against the federal law of the United States of America and I can't believe we have reached this point where our own government is committing treason. Believe me this stuff is going to be cleaned out and cleaned out soon and it's not going to be pretty. The recent Deportations roundups r just the tip of the iceberg and just the beginning. I don't know what it will do to tell these people by these emergency Whatsapp messages and texts going around all day yesterday in New York and the fear that is ripping through the communities I don't know what it will accomplish to tell these people to stay home and hunker down and lock the doors and not answer the door for a couple of days. Because ICE is just going to wait for a week or two and come back and swoop down upon them again until they're all gone. The city of New York has 1,625,000 illegal immigrants. That is just the city of New York. So all you fOREIGNERS/SJWs I don't want to hear about immigrants and multiculturalism and all that because you probably don't even live in the city where the total population itself is 1,625,000 and that is just the illegal immigrant community population in my city. You people have no idea how out of control and how bad it is and if you ever lived here then you would understand

It's amazing how people feel they have the right to illegally live in a country, like it's something noble they're doing and the horrible ICE are just being mean.

That's why I have to laugh when the Mexican president criticizes our government. Millions of Americans are not trying to sneak into your country to work. Please fix your country before you start chucking shit at ours.

I don't know when it became cool and when it became Chic to break the law. Suddenly there is no such thing as a law. And if you say there is a Lloyd means you are a fascist. I don't know when this started but millions and millions of people have been brainwashed into this idea that there's no such thing as an illegal human being. Yes there is such a thing as an illegal human being. Is a person who has broken a law. If I sneak into Mexico now and I overstayed my 60 days or whatever they give me I will be an illegal immigrant. If I sneak into Egypt to right now or China I will be an illegal immigrant. What part of illegal are people acting like they no longer understand? And isn't this just a symptom of the out-of-control sense of self-entitlement that people have gotten over the past 20 years?

Sometimes it can be argued it is okay to break a law if it is unjust, like smoking marijuana, etc.

But how could anyone argue that immigration laws are unjust? If you don't have borders, you don't have any countries, and our whole system falls apart.

Exactly it's like if everyone decided that the speed limit on highways is no longer enforceable and that it is unjust and that is discrimination to try to stop people from driving at over 65 miles per hour so let's just all do it and if anybody tries to arrest us for speeding on the highway we will say that they are a racist and a fascist and that they have no right and that there's no such thing as an illegal driver

I think we pretty much summed it up perfectly, I think the ideas and statements in this thread should be mandatory reading for all liberals.

It is too logical for them they will distract to unrelated crap.
