    What “illegal immigrants” in their right mind would be out partying at an after hours night club with everything going on? I wouldn’t be surprised if there were a few, but 100? This reeks of steamed hams. 100 migrants localized entirely in this illegal nightclub, in this political climate? I would like to see the evidence

      Let’s be honest, most people are dumb and operate under the “It won’t happen to me” delusion

      They probably weren’t out partying carrying their birth certificate on them. At this stage you’re probably considered illegal if you can’t prove your citizenship right then and there.

        Even if you have evidence, ICE will just say, “take them anyway! They don’t look white.”

        Was no longer a thing a long time ago

        Democrats and Republicans both worked hard for the elites to make sure of it

          Don’t you dare both sides this horse shit we’re dealing with. Only one side caused it and continues to support it. And you know that you little traitor.

                Letting Trump get away with things is the entire reason we’re here. His second Administration would have been totally prevented if he was actually punished for doing a literal coup attempt. If people set up to Trump earlier he might not have even been elected the first time. Joe Biden has so little problems over the guy he just defeated and then hands it overpower to it’s kind of amazing. It kind of feels like we’re in Trump’s third term

    /checks to see if it’s Colorado Springs

    Of course it is.

    Right wing AF. I don’t think many people have a clue how insanely god-squad right wing the USAF Academy is. It’s cult-like.

    If it’s illegal and all that, yes, they should be held to standard.

    But given the fact that this administration likes to slap the word “illegal” on anything they don’t like, was it really? Or is it a boy crying wolf again?

        Who said they should be deported? And if they are indeed commiting an illegal act under the written law, why shouldn’t they be subject to any consequences for breaking said law?

        I don’t agree with authoritarianism, but I won’t defend lawlessness either. These extreme and radical stances from either party are why the US is where it currently is.

        I cast my doubt over the the very foundation of the act of imprisoning these people, not if they’re innocent or not. Because without due process everyone is guilty until proven otherwise - and even then not really. I think you missed my entire point.

          Stonewall was deemed illegal by the cops that raided it, and that’s the genesis of queer pride.

          Sometimes illegal shit is not only okay, but necessary.

    Colorado was one of the states that has been very actively fighting Trump’s goons. It’ll be interesting to see how this turns out.

      I just want to point out that Colorado Springs is the polar opposite of what people think of when they think of Colorado.

      Colorado Springs is a military-focused city being the home of the US Airforce Academy. It’s famous for its mega-churches and hosts the headquarters of the extreme right-wing group “Focus on the Family”. Their mayor recently said that people could report anyone they suspected of being an illegal immigrant and the city would investigate it.
