That story is heartbreaking and awful.  As are the stories about Americans who have been killed, raped, or otherwise abused by gang members and other criminals who have been allowed to enter the country illegally.  It seems like everyone in the US (right, left, and center) should be able to put aside politics and agree to secure the border, and remove everyone who is here illegally.

For you, the story is not awful, be honest and drop the charade. This man, a naturalized citizen has nothing to do with illegal border crossings or other examples you cited. A day of reckoning will come, be prepared to defend your views.[/quote]

Well put. I wonder if the PP you were responding to knows (or cares) that there are approximately 24-26 million naturalized U.S. citizens. I really have to wonder what plan ICE has in place to quickly distinguish naturalized citizens from migrants who are undocumented or here on some other visa status. [/quote]

how would you want ICE to go about identifying those who are in the country illegally?[/quote]

They should follow the procedures they used under previous administrations, including under Trump's first term.

But they are deviating from however they were doing things before in the following ways:

*the rhetoric provided by the administration, along with talk of "absolute immunity," has created a permission structure to be extra aggressive
*the daily quota of 3000 arrests a day set by VP Miller has put extra pressure on officers to arrest more and more people and has decreased their respect for civil rights
*the purchase and use of new surveillance equipment from Palantir and others has raised troubling questions about privacy for US citizens
*the need to film interactions between ICE and migrants to produce content for DHS propaganda videos 
*the push to hire 10,000+ new officers and train them in half the time has meant a decrease in skills and quality of candidates
*the strategic use of "surges" like the one going on in Minneapolis right now that are meant to intimidate the local populace and punish blue cities
*the use of masks and paramilitary equipment, 
*and so much more.

[/quote] We’ll Biden had 4 years of completely open borders resulting in 10-12 million illegals, many of which are criminals. So, obviously, the tactics need to be updated to deal with this. Can’t follow the same old slow playbook.[/quote]

Give me a cite for your claim that “many” of the migrants are criminals. Just because this administration says it doesn’t mean it’s true.[/quote]38000 in ICE detention have criminal records or current criminal proceedings. CNN reported this today on cable channel.[/quote]
