Portland Police Refused To Help ICE Agents Who Called 911, Agents Say

[Cow Poke]

Given the people you picked you practically proved my point.

And I suspect he had to embellish it by adding "one other".... Kinda like "EVERYBODY says...."

Or perhaps I'm perfectly used to having intelligent disagreements on many issues with fellow scientists on a daily basis when discussing the possible merits of different hypotheses and don't see anyone who disagrees with me as crazy and/or evil and am perfectly well-balanced when it comes to having disagreements, and it's just that many of the religious conservatives on this site actually are crazy and/or evil.

It's not as if it's just me who thinks that - 3 of my friends who used to post here (Jaecp, Sam, and one other years ago) have left the site in disgust at how crazy people here are. This site, for whatever reason, does seem to attract the dregs of US conservative religious insanity.

Jaecp still comes around from time to time (just 2 days ago) playing the role of Wormtongue and whispering in certain folks ears

You know how the liberals get so upset if someone from one culture interferes with another or tries to appropriate part of that culture, like making tacos or wearing a style of dress? Cultural Appropriation.

They should have a term for people from one country trying to tell the people in another country how they should be running their country. Like Starlight, Charles and Tassman keep doing. Claiming they know more about our country's government than we do and how it should be run. I haven't seen anyone telling them how Australia or New Zealand, or Denmark should be run (or wherever Charles is from)

I doubt very highly that we are crazy but just for giggles.

But to the lost, our faith is foolishness, and Jesus expected that the world would hate us.

Kinda like "Occupy Tweb", but clandestinely?

I think the police should have responded... to ensure the citizens were protected from ICE.

Abolish ICE.

And yet you support strict immigration laws in your own country.

Hypocritical much?

[Mountain Man]

They separated innocent children from their parents. They caused a tremendeous suffering for the least of these. And you know it but prefer to ask questions instead of confronting the problem.

Statler: That post was terrible!

Chuck: You think you could do batter?

Waldorf: We certainly couldn't do worse!

Statler and Waldorf: Oh ho ho ho!

Mostly because none of us really give a crap about those countries.

But like a radio talk show host said some years ago, "People hate America for the same reason that people hate the New York Yankees: because they're better than everybody else and just keep winning."

Ah, yet another liberal who doens't believe in due process. Let's condemn the ICE personnel in Portland, Oregon because we believe OTHER agents acted inappropriately.

I'm not exactly an expert in US geography, but even I know that Portland is a long long way from the Mexican border.

correction the left's childish temper tantrum over Trump winning is getting uglier every day.

Continued to participate in an extrajudicial organisation that has been committing genocide (kidnapping the children of a minority group). The onus is on them all to resign immediately.

Which wouldn't help. I'd prefer they stay in the organisation and improve it, possibly by getting rid of those members of ICE that are responsible. .

[RumTumTugger]

Doofus, kidnapping and genocide are crimes. So is failure to comply with the court orders saying "no you can't do that, that's criminal, reunite the children with their parents immediately", which they are still in serious violation of to this day.

inability to show any genocide noted.

Starlight needs to admit he was wrong about the genocide or be known for the anti intellectual fool he continually shows himself to be.

"Person Openly Trash-talking Unrelated States".

Unfortunately, those in "law enforcement" are very much like those in "medicine" or "education"... there's a "circle the wagons" mentality that protects "us" vs "them".
