If you are not a US citizen and at any point you think to yourself, "Surely it's not that bad," or, "Surely they don't mean me," let me tell you right now: it is that bad and they do mean you. If you are a US citizen, they just mean it a little less.

Why? Because they have a ridiculous quota to meet. They don't care who they pick up, who they gas, who they shoot, because the goal is to meet that quota by any means necessary, and terrorizing people along the way is just the icing on their cake; they enjoy hurting people, because the people ICE is hiring are violent and bigoted by default. Until this regime is thoroughly dealt with, assume the US isn't safe.

They can "deal" with this all they want, but the shitstains that voted for this, twice, are still there. That country is never going to be safe, ever.

They're included in that "dealing." As far as I'm concerned, they're part of the current regime; you know they'd jump at the chance to elect them for a lifetime if they could.
