They’re only Americans if they got a citizenship. There are videos of cars burning and people throwing rocks and the time on the video is from BEFORE the NG was deployed If you don’t love America, WTF did you come here? And if your anti establishment, don’t get all pissy when the establishment comes to put an end to the chaos you’re causing

The “evidence of criminal activity” you’re talking about is just being in the US The vast majority of the people being arrested have no other criminal charges Before ICE, the US had allowed these people to work towards citizenship via check ins. These people pay taxes. These people have jobs inside the community. These people have families, kids, relatives, some of whom are citizens are some not.

If you are here illegally (aka expired visa like the one fashion artist or no visa) you are a criminal bc you have broken the law. I have a friend who came from AU and became a US citizen, so I know how it works. You need a green card if you’re going to stay here and work. The gov has EVERY right to revoke that green card if they want.

The laws apply yes, but you’re still not a citizen of the US, dumbass. A tourist is liable to the us laws but they do NOT have the full rights and privileges of a US citizen and they need a unexpired visa to be here legally Not sure why if you’re Hispanic, y’all suddenly think that doesn’t apply.

You still have a court date, tho. You can chose to show up or not - by not showing up, you’re saying “I’m guilty of speeding” - read the fine print on your ticket next time. And thanks for bringing that up. Cause there are different levels of civil offenses which merit different levels of punishment. A friend in law school who worked for a DA (and who’s Hispanic, not the friend from AU) said that the judges don’t just pick the punishments for these cases. there’s literally a matrix they use

So any judge who is dismissing the case of an immigrant with an expired visa - such as what was happening in LA (which is why ICE went there with such a large force). They are ignoring that matrix and breaking the law, which is why you’re starting to see judges being arrested.

Your ignorance is glaringly apparent to everyone who’s got a ticket, bro. My guess is you’ve had less than 3 speeding tickets and good for you. When you get a speeding ticket, the officer literally tells you this is your court date and time and shows you where it is printed on the ticket. He tells you, “you are not required to make an appearance and can pay the fine online but this is the court date/time if you want to contest the ticket”

Maybe instead of bashing our police force, try having a friendly conversation with them sometime. And ask them if peeps get a court date for speeding tickets You ALWAYS get a court date in case you want to contest the ticket (bc this is America and you have a right to defend urself and ur innocent until proven guilty). You’re only REQUIRED to APPEAR in court on that date if the speeding ticket is for extreme speeding.
