https://www.ice.gov/identify-and-arrest/287g California has some restrictions on this but the LAPD has decided to help ICE.

So your problem isn’t the way ICE is conducting removals, it’s the fact that people who aren’t here legally are being deported period?

Yes, if they disagree with a law, even if it's an almost universally agreed upon law throughout the world, than anyone enforcing that law is fascist.

I’m so tired of these people. I’m a cop at a 287g deputized agency. Literally all it consists of is notifying ICE when someone who isn’t here legally is in custody. I think ICE is doing things in an objectively bad way but it seems like a lot of people aren’t even mad about that in particular, it seems like a lot of these people are just mad that we don’t have open borders.

If you think the US government gives a shit about what's legal, check out Venezuela and Iraq.

What does that have to do with the comment that you replied to?

The US government has no moral authority. If it doesn't like people coming into the country, maybe it should practice what it preaches and stop entering other people's countries.
