Minnesota would like to have a chat with you.
- 9x39 8mo agohttps://www.kttc.com/2026/01/20/americas-pulse-current-ice-activity-level-according-new-polling/ https://www.kttc.com/2026/01/20/americas-pulse-current-ice-a... About 40-50% are in support, so the parent's accurate. That roughly matches the political divide across the states.
- PsylentKnight 8mo agoThe first sentence says that that's a national poll, not a Minnesota poll
- watwut 8mo agoI mean yes conservatives like gestapo mistreating their political opponents. It does not make it not gestapo or not lawless. It makes conservatives who they are - fascist party.

- footy 8mo agoICE is shooting bystanders in the face, blinding teenagers, and tear-gassing infants.
- yoyohello13 8mo agoIt's kind of mind blowing people hate immigrants so much they are willing to burn their own country down to get rid of them.
- mlindner 8mo agoI love immigrants lol. I just want immigrants that integrate and come into the country without breaking the law.
- jazzyjackson 8mo agoThanks for sharing your perspective.

- jazzyjackson 8mo agoIt's just nice to know what my neighbors are thinking
- yoyohello13 8mo agoI don’t like that these kinds of posts get flagged. If a post is praising ICE or Trump it should be highlighted and mocked, not flagged and deleted. People should see how batshit insane MAGA people are.
- mlindner 8mo ago> No, actually to be frank, I'd rather the Nazis go back to hiding under the floorboards in fear of public retribution. You're defaming me and spreading lies. Any actual Nazis can go fuck themselves.

- jyounker 8mo agoWhy do you have so much hate for immigrants?
- mlindner 8mo agoI'll tell you the same thing I told the other person: I love immigrants lol. I just want immigrants that integrate and come into the country without breaking the law.
- JumpCrisscross 8mo ago> deportation rates are much too low “U.S. Border Patrol agents recorded nearly 238,000 apprehensions of migrants crossing the southern border illegally in fiscal year 2025” [1]. For 2012 to 2015, the chart shows about 360k, 420k, 480k and 330k, respectively. That means ICE is spending $330 to 580 thousand dollars per additional Southwest border encounter in 2025 versus 2012. ($250 to 440 thousand if we average Obama’s second-term numbers.) These numbers 10x even San Francisco’s circa 2016 homeless-industrial profligacy [2]. Unless ICE is a ball of wormy corruption, they’re clearly not focused on immigration enforcement. If you prefer anecdotes, I live in Wyoming. Our farms are de facto exempt from enforcement. I believe in enforcing our immigration laws while we work to reform through the legislature. But that's clearly not what ICE is doing. The most-generous interpretation is they're making videos that make people who want enforcement feel good.

- mlindner 8mo agoI've said for a while that ICE needs to go after businesses that hire illegal immigrants. So if you're looking for some kind of conflict in what I'm saying that isn't it. That's why I said that ICE isn't doing enough.
