Let us not forget: it was the Democrat Party that once supported the formation of the KKK, pushed Jim Crow laws, and defended slavery

They like to conveniently forget that the parties had a flip. So yes, while the democrats IN NAME pushed all that abhorrent ideals, those democrats are the Republicans today.

Who cares about any of that.

Just ask who do the KKK vote for now

Obama? Harris? Clinton? Biden?

Amy is correct. Therefore, we should take down all the monuments to the Confederates that those Democrats put up.

And as I like to say, we used to prescribe cigarettes for asthma. The times will change.

I was in a Portal, Arizona recently, which is a pretty rural area. On the radio a public service type advertisement came on explaining your rights if you get arrested by or encounter ICE. It felt like something from a movie.

Based on Jan6; sounds like the perps just earned pardons!

For what? I saw them grabbing ice cream from a stand just outside the view of any cameras, at the time.

Will be interesting to see how they handle whoever did this considering the guy who shot up the democratic offices in az and had 100000 rounds a machine gun and a grenade launcher got out on bond to await trial… I have my doubts they will be treated similarly

[–] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 51 points 1 week ago (5 children)

My first thought was a false flag operation to make the Left look like terrorists.

A reminder to people who call this an act of violence, it isn't. Violence can only be committed against living things. This is arson which is a type of vandalism. If there are people or animals inside, then it's violence. If only property is damaged it's vandalism or sabotage, depending on the purpose of the damage.

[–] SPRUNT@lemmy.world 78 points 1 week ago (5 children)

That's ridiculous!!

ICE is clearly the American Gestapo.

I'm pleasantly surprised at the levelheaded reporting. It's strikingly neutral, to the point where the Republican quote sounds like a shrill shreak in a sea of reasonableness.

There's no call for perpetrators being hunted down, no death threats, it's all very civil.

Buildings have ways to stop from catching fire if it really doesn't want to be burnt down.

“We will not allow New Mexico's broken criminal justice system to dilute the seriousness of this attack."

Sounds like they are declaring extrajudicial punishment for whoever they deem guilty.

That (R) statement is about what I'd expect from them. Hyperbole and fearmongering.

Colorado sees you, New Mexico.

Doesn't look like anything to me.

This could be a Reichstag Fire moment. It’s near the border and gives Trump precedent to strengthen operations there.

[–] sharkyfox@feddit.uk 31 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm not sure they really need a Reichstag fire. Whoever's on board at this point, or any time since Jan 6th, is down for whatever.
