[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The decision is the correct one. Yes, he should have made courtesy calls to a few people before making the decision public, but really, there's nothing to consult about. It was the right call.

I agree. He made the right call.

OP, do you not share the concerns about community safety? [/quote]

Why would legal U.S. citizens of Hispanic descent be in danger? Why have their celebration cancelled without consultation?

Oh that’s right, a white progressive knows what is best for them. [/quote]

Why?  I guess you haven’t been paying attention to who ICE has been arresting— or the recent Supreme Court statement: that a person’s appearance, language, and location are “reasons” that justify arrests.  But hey:  obviously by your use of “their” you don’t view yourself as Hispanic. Who did you consult with before making your statements?  Maybe you’re disappointed that there won’t be a festive to assemble sitting ducks for ICE? [/quote]

If you are here illegally, I do not care if you are fearful; that's the breaks. ICE is not rounding up citizens as much as you want to instill this panic into society.    It is just not happening. I would argue that ICE is in more danger than anyone else since democrats keep trying to kill them.

It is a shame that this festival was cancelled, once again prioritizing the protection of individuals who should not be here over that of MoCo's legal citizens.  [/quote]

This is a particularly egregious example.  The autistic 5 year old is a US citizen. Yes, it is happening.  You just don’t care that it’s happening.

You do actually follow up the facts right? Correction and retraction: NBC later corrected its story, acknowledging that an earlier version had "mischaracterized the activities of ICE agents in the video".
