With yesterday’s tragic news, we are calling for an immediate deescalation of tensions and for state, local and federal officials to work together to find real solutions.

Nah fuck you CEO assholes, turn the temperature to the fucking MAX until ICE gets the fuck out, and then all the rest of you please light yourselves on fire for lobbying on behalf of these fucking ICE ghouls.

And I fucking loathe the implication that literally any parties other than ICE and the police are morally culpable in the escalation of the violence. It's ICE, it's all ICE, and the only just outcome is for ICE to immediately get the fuck out and then collectively saw their own heads off.
