so why do white supremacists from outside of town who didn’t pay for it get to decide how it’s used instead of the citizens who did? the roads of minneapolis are primarily funded by the very citizens setting up these checkpoints. by your own logic, this is EXACTLY what should be done, but then you swerve at the last minute and say it shouldn’t
I’m sorry, I’m not aware of ICE putting up road blocks. Would you kind sharing an example so I can stay better informed? Regardless, its not okay for them to do it either. We have every duty to prevent them from continuing to do that, but just because they’re getting away with violating peoples liberties, that doesn’t give you free reign to do it too.
Also, not sure how my logic dictates people should be doing this. Would you mind elaborating further on that bit?
oh, so roadblocks set by ice protestors are wrong so long as ice isn’t doing them, and the protestors, who paid for the roads, should just allow ice to come into their communities and kill and kidnap their neighbors?
That’s not even remotely what I said. Its bad when law enforcement does this, and its bad when private citizens do it to. I’ve repeatedly said that throughout this thread. There are ways of combatting ICE that don’t double down on the violation of people’s liberties. If you’re going to double down on bad-faith arguments though, then we’re done here.
then what are you saying? i’ve been reviewing this trying to figure out what your position is and the only conclusion i keep reaching is that ICE operations should be left unimpeded
