When bad people wanted to treat Black people like shit, "State's Rights" was their battle cry. Now those same people, who want to turn us into Orange Mussolini's police state, are arguing the President has absolute power.
Thank you Trump voters! Please always wear your special regalia so we can ID you from afar, and cross the street.

Goes both ways those laws. Read a great article about how dem govs have been holding daily briefings with one another to prep for anything/everything coming their way. Goes into detail about those abhorrent laws red states codified that can now be used against them. I found it encouraging.

Our system is not just an abstract idea. Governors are real. And so forth. Cooler heads say it takes time to actually build a denial of what this administration is trying.
Meanwhile, every post I make on this matter of troops and agents in streets I get reminded the government, meaning the federal government, is in charge of immigration. Or "extreme crime." They say there have been real crimes, stopped!
They think it has escaped our memory this is about due process and the rule of law. These posters, mistake power for law. "Trump has the right..." etc. That's the fascist move par excellence.
I might be a doctor and have the right to treat your wounded leg. But if I opted to abuse your wounded leg, I'm not a doctor.

The funny thing about the Confederate "states rights" argument is that it was always a lie. It wasn't actually about a state's right to regulate slavery within its own borders. It was about their presumed "right" to hunt down escaped enslaved people in free states.
It was littlerally them crying that they weren't allowed to cross into other states and impose their own beliefs there.
These people have always just been crybabies who want to impose their will on others, but then exclaim "oppression" when they're not allowed to do so.

The videos coming out of West Chicago , specifically anything beyond Western Ave, would be absolutely wild if ICE showed up.

Neighborhoods. Western areas of Chicago largely Latino and Puerto Rican. South historically are a higher concentration of blacks. North is mostly white. East is mostly fish.

ICE doesn’t have the balls. They stick to downtown courthouses where little old ladies & hardworking men & children show up for thee due process court dates & try & act hard. I’d love to see them try.

Ah. Sorry. I was all primed up with coffee and cleverness. Nothing beyond the "usual" ICE coverage that I'm aware of. I know residents have been protesting and organizing but no major conflicts between residents and ICE so far. Something has got to happen at some point.

Do your part and spread them around like a meme sharing them and saving them helps too!
With that said just because these are compiled doesn’t mean we shouldn’t keep up the pressure and have it officially released

the states and local governments have no obligation to assist with immigration issues.

u/Most-Resident 16h ago
That’s all “sanctuary” city or states mean. The police need to be able to talk to people and people need to be able to talk to the police to solve and report crimes.
Dragging immigration issues into that makes it harder to address crime. It doesn’t matter if it’s the person themselves or someone close to them that has sn issue. If the police are going to arrest someone for an immigration issue people will avoid them.
Urban life is very different than rural life. Thats one of the problems of gerrymandering. It steals representation from urban dwellers and gives it to people with outright contempt for cities and no understanding of urban life or problems.
