    to be honest i feared ICE before this. and them deporting people that were here in good faith trying to work through the system presented to them is the problem, as well.

      You could get a group going and just hit a few targets in the city tangentially nearby that you know have money. Just go wallet and bling size, not color wise. Then move on to a new city next weekend. Could probably get away with it a few times before the heat, maybe longer if you are target selective.

    Only one thing to do now. We have to treat all ICE agents like armed criminals until they show their face, a badge, and a warrant.

      Something something… bad guy with a gun… good guy with a gun?

      So lets be the good guys with guns. Every American should perform citizens arrest on these so called “ICE Agents”, if there is resistance, you are entitiled to use lethal force to defend yourself. 😏

      Kidding, don’t actually do this…

      Unless… 🤔

        Agreed. It is easy to say “do it” … but there are a lot of things that could go wrong for a good guy with a gun.

        I was thinking more along the lines of trespassing them if they are on your property or at a business that the employees may not want ICE at. Also maybe calling the police on them … an armed guy in a mask with a Temu printed Tshirt that says “ICE” is certainly suspicious.

        Ha! We all know ICE agents dont get local warrants.

        They are supposedly running around Chicago with Douglas County warrants. If that is real it means ICE is getting warrants from a judge 2 and a half hours away

      I saw zero indications that ICE agents weren’t criminals before this.

      This is something I’ve thought about a lot. Obviously this is not legal advice, don’t try this shit based on this comment. Say a cop shows up to your door with a warrant and says “Let me in to search your house.” How the fuck am I supposed to react to this? If a cop asks to search something, you should always say no (unless there’s some sort of implied consent like breathalyzers in Georgia for drivers). But if they have a warrant, how do I even know it’s a real warrant? I’m not a legal expert. I don’t wanna sound like a sovereign citizen type who believes random words make you immune to things but I feel like the proper thing to do is say something like “I don’t consent, but I’m not resisting.” Then just stand there. Don’t close the door, but don’t open it more either.

      Like imagine a vampire. Right? They can only come in if they’re invited. As humans we use certain phrases to make orders sound like requests to be polite. I used to get in trouble with my mom as a kid because of it. She’d say things like “Please do X” and I’d protest saying because she’s saying please it’s like she’s asking, not telling. That’s not necessarily the best example of it, but it helps demonstrate the point. “Let me do X” is sort of a request to be given permission to do X without actually asking to do X. If they have a warrant, why ask at all? Why not just come in?

      Idk, I pray that I’m never in a situation like this.

        If you are peaceful minded then speed dial your lawyer and follow their instructions.

        If you want to use the castle doctrine then you have to do a lot of homework first.

    Everybody pretends to be an ICE agent to steal or commit violence, it is an utterly illegitimate mob of thugs loyal to a dictator.

    The only thing that isn’t pretend about ICE is the bigotry and violence.

    I see no meaningful difference between these people and “actual ICE agents”.

      The meaningful difference is the relief felt by this poor woman when she discovered she was just being robbed, not deported.

    Remember, in the US, you can be charged for obstructing a plain-clothes officer’s duties even before they ID themselves.

    And, fake-ICE cosplayers like this guy caan have their charges dropped by DOJ or pardoned by Trump.

    So if you get visited by someone unknown, you’re damned if you do or you don’t. Demand a judicial warrant and wait to receive one with an actual judge’s signature, before you open the door to agents you don’t know.

      for an image in a comment, just put the text in the square brackets at the very beginning!

      normally it should look like this:

      ![Put your alt text here](https://example.com/link-to-image.webp)

      you can go back to add alt text in a comment by editing it too!

        Ah, thank you. You might be the person that told me this before! I was thinking that space would appear as hyperlink text. Going to save this one.

        Edit: Weirdly, I don’t see the alt text. Maybe it works differently in different apps/formats

          if the alt text is “They’re The Same”, then i see it! it might work differently on some clients yea

          for example, i think on the web interface the alt text only shows if you’re using a screen reader, but i may be wrong

            Hmm, good to know. I was using alexandrite.app in desktop browser and thought it showed up previously when hovering but maybe there’s a setting. Haven’t checked on phone but I don’t think I am seeing any alt text on sync app. Thank you.

    This is FAKE NEWS but also if it was REAL it’s because the SHOP OWNERS are Criminals and NOT the Person who Stole Money while Impersonating an Officer!

    Anyways it’s a GOOD THING Unidentified Ice Agents are KIDNAPPING CHILDREN!

    I had to double check if this was the onion, and now I’m still wondering in the back of my mind if this is some meme.

    White people trying to get rich the same way they’ve been getting rich for the last 600 years: by stealing from brown people.
