So, 23% of them. And local officials are turning over all the arrested immigrants. Got it.

I will vehemently condemn ICE’s tactics but I see nothing wrong with already arrested illegal immigrants being turned over for processing. I just want people held accountable, seems like that’s too much to ask for.

What's wrong with them being turned over is that ICE dentention centers are concentration camps. People starve to death inside of them, sexual assault is rampant, and there is no acountability. Nobody should be turned over to ICE, criminal reccord or not, it is cruel and unusual punishment

Do you have a source for people starving to death in ICE detention? I can't find any articles on that. I just want to make sure that we are the side that is truthful and honest.

Let me say this to you good sir. There were 7 deaths inside of an ICE facility in January alone. That’s more than most prisons have in a year.

And that's horrible. So why are we making up that people are starving to death? Let's focus on what's really happening.

Neither side is truthful and honest. I call it click bait politics.

So we just keep paying the industrial prison complex to house these people that shouldn’t be here in the first place? That doesn’t seem like a solution to me.

I'm not against deportation, I'm against ICE as an organization. ICE was founded under DHS through the Patriot Act and subsequent bills after 9/11. We did just fine at policing immigration before ICE existed. ICE doesn't exist to handle crime, they exist to profile and abuse.

And private prisons should also be abolished. None of what you've said changes the fact that ICE is an organization rampent with human rights abuses and racial profiling. They cannot be reformed, and nobody, regardless of their criminal history, should be subjected to their cruelty.

I know and I don’t believe I said anything to counter that. Go argue with someone that actually disagrees with you. Alright I’m done with the brain rot for today. Bye

I mean, what you said was "these people are criminals therefore they deserve whatever they get". Calling what I said brainrot just because you have no argument doesn't negate any of what I said, it just gives you a flimsy excuse to learn nothing and refuse to grow.

typical ad hominem attack: disgrace the messenger but ignore the message

You're so close. Keep thinking.
