According to a Saturday report in the New York Times, concern over ICE’s brutality has grown to such an extent that many Minnesota residents, including both documented immigrants and US citizens, have started wearing passports around their necks to avoid being potentially targeted.

CNN on Friday reported that ICE has been rounding up refugees living in Minnesota who were allowed to enter the US after undergoing “a rigorous, years-long vetting process,” and sending them to a facility in Texas where they are being prepared for deportation.

      He’s gonna use it to defend his family in case masked men break into his house. Must be nice living with such privledge you can’t even conceive a scenario where someone is breaking into your house.

          Yes, but a list of usernames keeps getting longer and harder to remember. Tags are more efficient for remembering why you don’t like them - or, why you do! I think it’s important to tag people positively, too, to remember who deserves some grace.

      They are not gonna change anything, but as things are, it’s not a bad thing to have at home. You’re still gonna die, but you can take a nazi with you. And that’s where america is right now.

        You say you won’t tell what you’re gonna do with your guns on a public forum, yet you feel the need to mention that you bought guns on said public forums…

        Po-ser.

        It’s all show. If ICE shows up at your door, you’ll say “Yes Sir!” and you’ll scream “No! I’m a US citizen!” as they drag you away to a DHS-sanctioned concentration camp.

        You’ll do exactly nothing with your guns, because you know as well as I do that the ICE goons will pump you so full of bullets if you do that there will be more holes than flesh left on you.

        If you had anything serious in mind, you would have kept your gun purchase hush-hush.

          Maybe instead of bitching you should make suggestions to solve the problem.

          https://socialistra.org/

          Pay your first dues with a vanilla card purchased bough w/ cash a couple of towns over, use with a fake name at least 30-90 days after purchase so the CCTV footage will be overwritten.

          Also use for, or at least a good VPN like mullvad or ivpn.
