Some quotes from this demon:

“People want enforcement but they don’t want cruelty,” Nuñez-Neto said of ICE, whose agents are hunting people door-to-door in Minnesota and who receive challenge coins stamped with a skull that looks like the Nazi Totenkopf. “Let’s not abolish ICE. Let’s abolish the cruelty.”

Nuñez-Neto recommended that protesters understand that ICE agents are people, too.

“I think it would help both sides to appreciate the fact that that’s a human being across from you who may or may not want to do the things they’ve been ordered to do. In my long history being in and out of the Department [of Homeland Security], it is very often what makes the news are the terrible things that happen but what doesn’t get reported are the … stories about agents bringing toys into the border patrol station,” he said.

I, for one, only hope he experiences the exact amount of violence that he is enabling.

Oh, hell yes. Lets do some copaganda fluff for the fucking Gestapo. Look at this one smol bean SS that brought toys to entertain a handful of children, while several others are tortured just a few meters away.

This fucker can go find the humanside of ICE in barbara-pit

So fucking quit. It is not a difficult moral decision.

But we all know they joined because they absolutely want to be there and harass, assault, and murder anyone who doesn't look or think like them.

The human being: treatler

yeah that's a human being, which on a completely unrelated note means that they're made of meat

The fascist shoots and laughs.

The liberal shoots and cries.

The liberal must ascribe a moral dimension to his feelings, or else confront the fact that he is no different from the fascist. His target is just as dead.

If anyone had reason to care, then this would be another reason to abolish ICE, not a reason to protect it.
