The is pretty much the American version of Kriristallnacht. ICE should’ve spent 47 days reading history books. it’s mind boggling how the more evidence we have, the more double downing any trump regime supporters do.

I have some news for you
I mean most of these ice guys are probably creeps and illiterate morons so no surprise
the overwhelming majority of americans don’t read a single book after graduating highschool
There’s a paper trail from that phone in that machine back to the person that sold it. Follow it, and find the identity of this scum.
And then what ? They can murder people in the street without consequences, what would happen once we have the identity?
Not as crazy as that guy who followed a girl into a port a potty and closed the door.
These are armed fascist thugs and remember cops stand with ice, they are your oppressors. Anyone who takes up arms for the state is an oppressor.
This is actually insane to read. You would think it’s satire, but not when ICE is filled 100% with nazi’s, con men, and criminals that were pardoned.
I miss when these were stories from The Onion.
They steal money and other things from everyone they kidnap.
… after seriously beating him up. Bunch of cowardly thugs.
It’s called ‘civil forfeiture’, been happening for literal decades (at least), and it’s, unfortunately, probably legal.
Gotta love how being a cop in the US is so legal that we have to give them new, extra-legal ways to exist so they feel appreciated by the peasants.
It’s absolutely not legal to immediately sell an asset gained via civil judicial forfeiture for personal gain.
It’s a legal action filed against the property itself because they believe it was involved in a crime or purchasing with proceeds from a crime. It’s basically charging the asset with a crime.
The state can sell the property, but only if no one has filed a claim contesting the seizure for a period of time. There are strict time limits and notification requirements before this can be done.
Thank you for the additional info.
In that case, civil forfeiture has been practiced illegally, nationwide, for a very long time. This practice is nothing new.
Yeah, legality and enforcement are two different things. But I don’t think it’s common for cops to immediately pawn stuff then try to claim civil forfeiture.
I feel like they’re more likely to just lie and say it got lost, because otherwise a halfway decent lawyer could win a civil suit against them since they can’t produce the ‘defendant’.
I remember reading a whole lot about it during the Bush and Obama admins. The War on Terror was a great added excuse for backwoods cops to pull over brown people and rob them, and minorities (of course) were far less likely to lodge a complaint about it.
That’s actually been a long-standing policy for Immigration control. Going back to the DoJ era.
Just like the death camp guards at Auschwitz who looted jewelry and gold teeth from their prisoners. Guess history does repeat after all.
A very appropriate analogy. 100%
I was thinking of the Russians looting washing machines out of Ukraine

So can we buy some of them Israeli pagers and let them steal those.
Before this all shakes out, I could see some guerilla shit like this being a key tool in violent resistance. Magnets are pretty strong, too, so under vehicle, easily attachable devices might be very effective.
It’s long been understood that one of the simplest and the surest ways to maintain the loyalty of the violent thugs you hire to oppress and kill on your behalf is to let them loot their victims.
Raping and pillaging, and all that.
Yes, and you can be sure that the raping is going on too. It was a regular thing before Trump’s return. I can only think that at this point it is standard practice.
It’s worked wonders for centuries. Half the reason “you should go to war” was a thing was because of the unspoken “so you can steal a bunch of shit from the villages you burn”.
After being detained and released by ICE, Arnoldo’s family took him to Texas Children’s Hospital, where staff moved him to a trauma unit after identifying signs of the chokehold, according to ProPublica. Records show that doctors ordered dozens of CT scans and x-rays, including for his head, neck, and spine. His family says that the agents threatened to charge Arnoldo with assaulting an officer if his dad didn’t agree to be deported. The father is now in Mexico.

They’re not even cops!
From Wikipedia
A police officer (also called policeman or policewoman, cop, officer or constable) is a warranted law employee of a police force. In most countries, police officer is a generic term not specifying a particular rank. In some, the use of the rank officer is legally reserved for military personnel
I think of a cop like porn, you know it when you see it
These mother fucking ICE assholes are cops
We’re giving These People COMPLETE TAX PAYER IMMUNITY to Do this to Children! AWESOME!
-People who show up Armed to Drag Shows!
You know it’s bad if BigMacHole is being less sarcastic
