Shooting at Dallas ICE Facility

Hey MAGA...THIS is gaslighting.

Papers like phony asylum cases set for 5+ years in the future that everyone No Shows for.

Meanwhile they get auto- asylum welfare, work permits, drivers licenses w no testing, take on a fake ID/ ID fraud, and remit most of their money back home to build new houses or to fund more illegal immigration?


Congress and Biden at least tried to address some of these issues in a bipartisan immigration bill last year. Trump told Republicans to tank it, so they did.

The bill would also end the practice of “catch and release.” If passed into law, the bill would allow migrants who come to the border through lawful ports of entry and families to enter the U.S. under federal supervision for 90 days while they complete asylum interviews. Those who pass would receive work permits as they await adjudication of their claims. Those who fail would be removed from the U.S. and repatriated to their home countries or to Mexico.

The bill would mandate detaining migrants who try to enter the U.S. outside of official ports of entry, pending any asylum claims. Those who fail would also be removed.

The bill allocates funding for repatriation flights up to 77 per day.

The bill also raises the “credible fear” standard during interviews for asylum claims, largely by front-loading consideration of whether migrants have disqualifying criminal histories, whether they lived safely in third countries before trying to cross into the U.S. and whether they could safely relocate within their own countries.

The compliance for showing up for hearings was really high, actually.

And the GOP shot down the bill that would have authorized and funded hundreds of new administrative judges to hear the immigration cases more quickly. In fact, trump has fired over 100 of them this year...why?


What is an administrative judge? Does it have a law degree? Has it passed the bar?


Normally, yes, but not under Trump, they waived that requirement.

Cite the last 20 years of data on that PP. Even Pew and Brookings aren’t pretending that’s true.


Data from academic and human rights organizations show that asylum seekers in the US have a high court appearance rate, with studies indicating that well over 80% of asylum seekers attend their hearings
. Compliance rates are significantly higher for those with legal representation, often exceeding 95%. Official government numbers sometimes inflate "no-show" figures because of flawed reporting methods, such as counting only completed cases rather than all pending hearings.
Overall attendance rate

Over 80%: A multi-year study by the American Immigration Council found that 83% of non-detained immigrants with pending or completed removal cases appeared for all of their court hearings between fiscal years 2008 and 2018.
Over 90% for asylum applicants: Another analysis by the American Immigration Council found that from 2001 to 2016, 92% of asylum-seeking families released from detention had attended all their required court hearings.

Impact of legal representation
Legal counsel is the most significant factor affecting compliance rates.

96% to 98% with legal counsel: Multiple analyses of government data reveal that non-detained immigrants with legal representation have court appearance rates of 96% or higher. For families and unaccompanied children with lawyers, compliance rates are nearly 98%.

I asked AI about this because I haven’t seen it mentioned in one place. I’m as liberal as they come, but I don’t condone violence from anyone. Sadly, I think we’re going to see a lot more violence from all political persuasions in the remainder of Trump‘s term.

- Sep 24, 2025: Sniper attack on Dallas ICE facility. 2 detainees killed, 1 detainee injured; shooter dead.


ICE has been claiming a lot of lawful protests are "assault." They've even tried to charge people and have been unable to get indictments or convictions. The June one you cite above is one example of that. A jury just last week acquitted a protester that ICE claimed assaulted them at that protest. https://www.cbsnews.com/losangeles/news/la-county-ice-protest-not-guilty-acquittal/

AI is just going to pick up BS ICE claims without any real verification.


What’s to protest? Pro-Open Borders?


protesting people here legally being illegally detained and removed from their homes, their cars, their jobs and sent off to god knows where.


What do you mean “legally here”?


TPS
Allowed an asylum hearing in 3-6 years
Green Card
Naturalized Citizen
Other legally recognized forms of Visa's etc.


Jackpot!

Come one and all, just say the magic words!

But then why would I vote for an immigration single issue bill, even one most voters want, if I don’t get some other goodies in return?

Based on available public records, court documents, and news reports, the ten individuals charged in the July 4, 2025, shooting at the Prairieland Detention Facility appear to share left-wing political leanings, often aligned with anti-fascist (Antifa), anarchist, or progressive activism. This is evidenced by materials found at the scene (e.g., flyers reading "FIGHT ICE TERROR WITH CLASS WAR!" and "FREE ALL POLITICAL PRISONERS," and a flag stating "RESIST FASCISM – FIGHT OLIGARCHY"), prior protest involvement, and associations with left-leaning causes. Some sources explicitly describe the group as part of a North Texas Antifa cell. No evidence of conservative or right-wing affiliations was found for any of them.



uMpoSSible !

aNtIfa DoEs nOT eXiSt !! (herp derp)


Antifa exists, it simply isn't an organization. You are deeply stupid.


It's not like any antifa groups have never been sued by the government for contributing to violence...

Again, ANTIFA is not an organization. ANTIFA is an idea, that many different people and different groups support, including, at one time, the American military.

That’s why we need Single Issue bills, not 200 issue bills with horse trading and 800 pages of BS.


It was a GOP Senate bill that the Dem House and Dem White House agreed to support...until Trump tanked it.

This thread is about someone shooting ICE detainees. Let's not get into a debate with these mouthbreathers about immigration, as though there's any justification for this.

Only days ago, they were telling us all how despicable it is to celebrate death and to make excuses for political violence.

Now they want to debate immigration policy instead of talking about the actual crime. Don't take the bait.

The more "fair" you try to make things through carve-outs, the more unfair things become.

The country is suffering from complexity collapse and the unintended consequences of these bills.
