Yeah sure, show them papers so that they will be confiscated, then ICE can claim the person didn't show any documentation and do whatever the fuck they want (not that proof of citizenship would stop them... Or anything. These thugs will do whatever they want regardless.)

I would not prove my citizenship, it’s their job to prove I’m not a citizen.

Guilty until proven innocent

we can “prove” it by exercising all of our rights as they currently exist and to the letter. this nazi bitch is a reminder they want to remove those rights; they can and they eventually will if we do not use them.

I remember during the Obama administration when my MAGA relative (at that time a Tea-Partier) was scaremongering saying that the government was going to send enforcers telling everyone they come across on the street to show ID and proof of citizenship or else they'll get sent to a concentration camp.

This person today is cheering all of this on.

You really don't need to maintain ties with these people, blood doesn't have to be family.

How about I show you the bill of rights?

That old thing?

[–] DrFistington@lemmy.world 6 points 22 hours ago

Naturally they won't give a list of the forms of ID they accept.

We need to start cranking out fake ICE badges, then use those to prove ID

There's the reason people are painting "Hang Kristi Noem" on ICE vehicles

Turns out we're a nation of immigrants. Therefore, everyone's eligible to be deported.

Does raise some questions about why ICE exists to begin with and what its purpose has actually been.

The real Barbie is cute and represents everything this monster is not. She needs a new nickname that isn't subtle or could be taken as a compliment.

I vote for Cunt Faced Traitor aka CFT

Honestly I try not to use sexist terminology. There's a lot we could call this fascist dog killing wannabe podcaster without resorting to that.
