The FBI has found that white supremacists have infiltrated law enforcement: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/report-fbi-finds-white-supremacists-infiltrated-law-enforcement-agencies/ar-AAmsNqM "Official FBI guidelines acknowledge that white supremacists and right-wing extremists have infiltrated U.S. law enforcement agencies, according to a classified 2015 counterterrorism policy guide obtained by The Intercept. “Domestic terrorism investigations focused on militia extremists, white supremacist extremists, and sovereign citizen extremists often have identified active links to law enforcement officers,” the guide, which explains how individuals qualify for inclusion on a terrorism watchlist, ..." However, now that Trump has stated that the FBI should no longer focus on white extremists, and Sessions has stated that the DOJ will no longer be looking at police departments for civil rights violations, you can be sure that this type of thing will only get worse. |
I just need to point out, that a person arrested for the bomb threats to Jewish centers was............. a "journalist" for the Intercept. So, I will take anything they publish with a HUGE grain of salt. |
What's one DUI? Who cares? Everyone who wants to live in America should be able to do so! |
I really do not care about deporting illegal aliens. Get a visa like every other country requires. |
This. A lot of these agents (and Border Patrol, too) are on the low end of the totem pole - or feel they are treated that way, anyway - for law enforcement. So, Trump has given them a new sense of purpose and power and they are gulping it up. In some sense these are the equivalent of the "brownshirts". This is the army that is working for Trump. |
Yes it is. And yet another vicious attack on the brave men and women of law enforcement who risk their lives to protect us every day (including from drunk drivers who are responsible for taking millions of innocent lives over the years). |
It's a fucking job. It makes no one above approach. They get union protection, pensions, and that is as it should be. They deserve criticism when they act like power-hungry grease stains, as here. |
CBP and ICE are right up there with TSA agents in terms of who they are. #sobrave. |
First you say "it's a f***ing job" as if to say, they were only doing their job (which they were) and following a law Bill Clinton himself sought out and signed! Then you attack their character because they did their job??!? Seek professional help; you are clearly schizophrenic (and please limit the profanity; it negatively affects Jeff's site). |
Um - you do realize DHS strictly adheres to all EEO laws, regs, and policies, and that many ICE employees are women, right? You sound unhinged. |
The worst part is that going after low-hanging fruit, like this father, distracts them from the labor-intensive investigations required to track down and apprehend violent illegal aliens and gang members.
The violent illegal alies don't live at a fixed address, don't register, don't pay taxes, and are not easily traced. It takes dedicated investigators to track them down. Instead, they've been re-assigned to follow tax-paying illegals home and apprehend them in the morning. |
And you're grasping at straws. The vast majority are men and I hope their families are not bearing the brunt of the psychological damage being inflicted upon these officers. It takes a special kind of monster to lay in wait for fathers and mothers. |
PP here.. I did notice that, too, and found it a bit ironic, but it doesn't make this any less true. There have been other news sites that have reported on this. Intercept was just the first one I saw the other day. |
Break the law-pay the price! |
I'd rather put the resources to ending violent crime than staking out school drop offs. |
