I reject the idea that enforcing border laws is comparable to the systematic genocide of over 6,000,000 Jews.

And what of the many non Jews that were targeted? We cannot ignore history and the similarities of what is currently occurring in the USA. It’s time to rip the mask off and face the facts of what is happening, there is nothing humane about the actions of ICE and those who have unleashed the chaos on the people of the USA.

There is no "humanitarian duty" to interfere with federal immigration officers who are following the law and arresting illegal immigrants. The humanitarian duty would have been to never encourage millions of people to enter our country illegally.

But do they all have warrants signed by a judge? That's a question I'd like a definitive answer to...it's important, according to The Constitution.

And having to carry your birth certificate and/or passport for ID. A regular driver's license just not good enough, not even a Real ID which can get you on a plane and even inside a nuclear facility.

If you don't have ID they're happy with, you get carted away to mostly out of state places for who knows how long. And this is happening to citizens. Wouldn't anybody resist and speak up for themselves or others, especially if they started roughing you or some other unfortunate person up? I certainly would.

I'd say, IMO, until well trained real LE who know that people have rights and respect that show up, it is a humanitarian issue to being very concerned about...as an American. AJMO

The humanitarian duty would have been to never encourage millions of people to enter our country illegally.

Do you think, for the majority of them, that they just decided to get up and immigrate here just because they felt like it? No, it's because their countries are unstable and lack economic opportunities. The U.S is partly to blame given its long history of interference in Latin American affairs. Yes, there are bad people among them and open borders isn't a solution.

But what Trump is doing is criminal but that's who he is. ICE needs to be abolished whether you like it or not. They're murdering innocents. It's a shame and a stain on our country that immigration reform hasn't been en-acted.

Moo....this has happened a few times. The powers that be make a statement before they have any info or video. Like FBI detaining wrong shooter. Just weird they keep making the same mistake. The powers lied before they had information.
