Why so much hate towards federal workers who are simply doing their jobs?
I understand the emotional sympathy when a day-laborer gets detained and sent back to Central America, but the law is clear: one must follow legal pathways to work lawfully in the USA. How does the hate, targeting ICE, make any sense? |
| Yes and no. If that's all they were doing, they would have the support of a large majority of the people. But it isn't, and they don't. |

We need to be careful about excusing anything because “it’s the law”.
When people don’t like a law they will protest the law. It wasn’t that long ago that it was the law that Black people had to sit segregated at the back of a bus down South. Police arrested because “it was the law”. Protests changed the laws. |
They are often trying to arrest American citizens too. That is objectionable. |
| Because they are bullies attacking non violent civilians violently while hiding their ugly faces. Why act like thugs if you are not one? |
I have not seen a federal worker around me acting violently without provocation. They act like thugs and will be viewed as such. |
That is not true. |
I don't think it is legal to pull random people of color off the street in the hopes of snagging an "illegal" I also don't think it is legal to beat the crap out of old men, old women, women in general, nor separate a minor from their parent to gain leverage over a "suspect" But YMMV. |
Yes, it is. And green card holders and other people going through the legal system. It really calls into question where all those criminal illegals are that ICE has to round up so many people legally going about their business. |
All you need to do is read the unfettered news every day to know that it is true! |

These threads are getting tired with how disingenuous they are.
-- Straw Man. It's not the laws that they are enforcing that is objectable It's how they are enforcing them: --Treatment of detainess. --Indisciminate rounding up, including at their immigration check ins. --So many NOT going back to their homes--kept in detention centers --Tackling and hurting innocent people and using racial profiling alone to grab people. Either OP you are completely uninformed or you know better and just don't care. |

Does this guy look like he assaulted the ICE agent?

| OP, you realize they are also detaining green card holders and others who have protected status, right? That is not in line with the laws Congress has passed. |
| Is this a serious question? The “brownshirts” were also following orders from their elected leaders. |
| ICE is a criminal gang operating under the control of Trump and republicans. |
