Ice officers encouraged to ‘push the envelope’ with arrests, including of undocumented people encountered by chance
Senior US immigration officials over the weekend instructed rank-and-file officers to “turn the creative knob up to 11” when it comes to enforcement, including by interviewing and potentially arresting people they called “collaterals”, according to internal agency emails viewed by the Guardian.
Officers were also urged to increase apprehensions and think up tactics to “push the envelope” one email said, with staff encouraged to come up with new ways of increasing arrests and suggesting them to superiors.
“If it involves handcuffs on wrists, it’s probably worth pursuing,” another message said.
By collateral I assume they mean kidnapping someone’s family members to convince them to turn themselves in. Soooo… hostages?
This is getting so ugly so fast.
They won’t stop until someone stacks up a pile of gestapo. Then they’ll come down harder. This is fascism. It’s going to take hot lead to make it stop. Sooner or later.
Law enforcement spent millions of dollars and thousands of man-hours looking for Eric Frein in the sticks. They may ramp up the rhetoric, but practically, someone fighting back would have the consequence of straining an already logistically strained effort.
A well trained shooter took down 5 or 6 cops in Texas during the Michael Brown riots. They had to blow up a parking garage to finally take him down. Just one guy.
______ sympathizers will be rounded up with the rest of the undesirables.
It’s happening here
Arm yourselves
Push the envelope, get creative, you know with people’s RIGHTS.
These people are crazy and evil.

The tech bros have screwed up our country.
They can just grab people and send them to supermax prison in a foreign country without any due process to verify if they were in the country legally or not
More Gestapo! MORE GESTAPO!!!
If they are fishing for illegal immigrants they aren’t already aware of then that means that legal immigrants and citizens will primarily be the ones getting harassed by overreaching federal agencies. If only there was a party tht respected people’s right and didn’t “tread” on them.
