Doing It Wrong On Purpose

IF trumpublicans really wanted to deport hundreds of thousands of immigrants, they could easily have begun in user friendly red states with compliant governors. There would be little need for ICE goons, National Guard or threats of military. But what fun would that be? 

In Obama's 8 years, he deported 5.3 million people without ICE goon's wilding out on the streets of America. Also, without unnecessary fanfare, Joe Biden deported 545,000. Neither of those two gentlemen used concentration camps for this process. I do not recall much hullaballoo about this on the news or the internet in those 12 years. But here Trump is one year into his second disastrous term and certain blue cities look like war zones. I have to believe that's on purpose. 

Both Biden and Obama respected the 14th Amendment and used due process to accomplish their tasks. Trump however gets by with a memo telling ICEholes to disregard the 4th Amendment. ICEholes will also tell you that you can't film them and reel off some official sounding numbers, but they are fucking lying about that. You can and you should. Don't worry about getting their good side- they don't have good sides. 

These home invasions they are doing bother me whether they are happening to regular American citizens, suspected illegals or even known drug dealers like in the movies. I think they are pretty fucking dumb and dangerous for all concerned. There are millions more guns in the US than there are people. Barging into the wrong person's house can get you killed and Stand Your Ground and Castle Doctrine laws back you up on that. The NRA spent a lot of time and money on getting those laws on the books. In one of history's great twists, the NRA's goal was to protect citizen gun owners from a "tyrannical government". The twist is that when that tyrannical gubmint did show up, they sat this one out. It turned out that by "tyrannical government" they meant one that would tax millionaires and allow trans athletes in schools. Who knew?

Now ICEholes are declaring that their armed, masked goons are indeed allowed to kick in doors with guns drawn if they think you might be harboring busboys or be a busboy yourself. Well, they can't, but who is going to tell them when they have a memo and they work for a *president* who rules by fiat because 6 cocksuckers on the USSC said he can? Who knew that the Constitution could be overridden with a memo? 

Let's say you see via your door cam that there are six-armed masked men pounding on the door. They may announce themselves as ICE or police and they probably are ICE. Cops would have a warrant because, so far, they still have to follow the rules. ICE say they don't have to follow the rules and over the last ten years the media has trained us to both sides every motherfucking thing under the sun and moon. Supreme Team6 on the USSC is probably thisclose to overturning Right v. Wrong. You can tell them to go get a warrant if they don't have one, and this generally deters them. Like most other criminals though, they prefer easy targets. But what if they are stupid enough to come busting into the wrong guy's house and they are met with firepower superior to their own? It hasn't happened yet that I know of, but this is a well-armed country. A crazy one too. Things could go south quick for the armed, masked ICEholes. It also hasn't happened yet that enterprising hoodlums have disguised themselves as ICEholes to kidnap nubile young women from their cars or homes. Maybe it has and we just haven't heard yet. America is now a country that disappears people as has been happening for decades in less-lawful countries in South America. 

This is the way Trump prefers it though, the SHOCK & AWE aspect of governing, at least where blue states who were mean to him in the past elections are concerned. The media loves the "If it bleeds, it leads" programming that Trump provides. They like ratings almost as much as he does. I could tell you that this fuckery shouldn't be happening here, but the media can note that others disagree and they'll have to leave it there. That's what the networks tend to do these days. And so it goes...
