it only stops ICE, but I guess, you are so important, it would be rude to let you be a minute late, se we better let white supremacists gangs kidnap your neighbors so we don't inconvenience you.

do us all a favor and choke on that boot already.

It doesn't only stop ICE. Elsewhere in this thread someone was trying to tell me that ICE agents are indistinguishable from normal citizens (bullshit, by the way) so by that logic, they would need to stop everyone in order to determine if they're ICE or not. Its not about my time, its about the violation of personal liberties. This has "papers please" vibes written all over it. That shits not okay when the government does it, and its not okay when private citizens do it. You on the other hand have no moral consistency. You rebuke oppression when its on the other side, and let it slide when its on your side.

good to know your personal liverty to not be delayed by a minute is more important than the personal liverty of your neighbors to not be kidnapped by white supremacists.

do us all a favor and choke to death on that boot.
