This when city, county, & state laws MUST BE ENFORCED. A local authority should issue a warrant & there must be prosecution or else this won’t stop. Probable cause is murder.

Exactly. Some weeks ago, I asked Gov Pritzker via his website contact page, why he isn't using the State Patrol, and the mayor of Chicago the police to arrest ice when they break the law.. his answer was typical vanilla.

Same question for Tim Walz. Apparently having ICE on your flak jacket is a license to kill.

Our political leaders talk a big game. As they say in the south, an alligator mouth and a humming bird ass.

We need to push the Democratic leadership to stir up local authorities.

Push the Democratic leadership? Take a wet noodle, lay it straight and try to push it.

Leadership, what leadership. When any leadership sticks it head above the crowd,it gets smacked down by the old guard

You’re correct. We need to throw out all noodles & push for aggressive leaders. We should be implementing Prof Snyder’s idea of the Loyal Opposition speaking up immediately to counter the lies.

I totally agree but there are two problems. One is cowardice on the part of media and the politicians

the other is Steve Bannon's, fire hose, Trump hits us with a machine gun barrage of lies, and it is almost impossible to counter them, that and as Mark Twain said, a lie goes twice around the world before the truth gets it's boots on.

There’s another southern phrase that became a famous song, “I’m Losing My Religion,” but what it means is that the person is getting impatient. That’s true as well.
