So - in the city of Los Angeles things have gotten totally out of hand.
But this didn't start here, it didn't start now .... it started several months ago, when ICE first went o collect some bad guys in New York ... or Chicago? ... anyhow, when ICE showed up, people rushed to the scene and stared harrassing ICE - they started using blowhorns to yell for people to run because "immigration" was there
Well - a couple of those people got detained, and released - I don't even think they were ticketed for disrupting the peace.
Well, it has continued on .... ICE shows up, somehow the activists get word about it, and they show up an interfere .... Now I have to be careful here - my kids, some of them, stand on one side of the issue, some stand on the other ..... I'm not quite sure where I am on it all.
So - then the detained migrants were sent home, to their original countries if they could go - and it seems that some guy from Maryland was sent (I might have already posted on him) ... but he ACLU jumped in and said these people weren't given their "due rights" - they weren't told why they had to go, they weren't given any sort of trial ....
Well - the Maryland "dad" as they called him, it turns out had a case brought against him for beating/hitting his wife .... but since she had dropped the lawsuit against him, the Democrats say it should be forgotten.
HOWEVER, it turns out, he had been caught for a speeding ticket, but the more interesting part is - that his car had about 10 other people in it - a violation of the law, you must have a seat belt for everyone in you vehicle - and all claimed to live at this man's apartment, with his wife and children.
Yeah - he wound up detained ... and then deported back to his own country where apparetly he said he couldn't go for fear of his life .... that he might be killed by member's of other gangs .... hello????
Well, because of a lawsuit the Trump Administration had to bring him back - where he will go on trial, likely serve a term for transporting others ILlegally, and then will be sent back to his country.
Well, then there was the arrest of a WI judge - may have a post on this as well - where she had a guy brought into her courtroom on trial for domestic abuse and she helped him get away from ICE. She and her clerk helped him leave the buildingwithout detection - using a secret way for judges to ensure their safetly!!!!
Well -it turned out it was all CAUGHT ON SECURITY CAMERAS, so she was ARRESTED AND CHARGED with a crime .... trial is pending.
So that's just a few .... Well Saturdays, I was scrolling trrough YouTube when I saw a LIVE STREAM from AgendaFree, it's a good, fairly unbiased, news show - anyhow they had video of some people protesting the LA ICE officers ....
I told hubby, who said "in New York?" I didn't realize things were happening in NY too!
I am so dead to the world on the weekends, you know?
and in 24 hours it has gone from bad to worse - it seems I had missed them throwing rocks and bottles at ICE BUSES AND OFFICERS ....
They said that they called LAPD for help but were told that unless someone was hurt, they weren't going to come ..... WHAT???
Well, it turns out, an officer was hurt - so the call went back out for back up - oherwise, things could have gotten ugly out there - and it still took LAPD 2 hoursB to show up ....
The official statement is, they were "unprepared" for such and emergency, and needed to gather things together - I'm sure that will give business in your city confidence to know how "prepared" your officers aren't.
Anyhow - Mayor of LA and Gov. Newsome some it was mostly peaceful protesting going on, so they weren't going to call out any extra forces to help them.
Meanwhile, officers as well as those they were trying to get out of there, were trapped by the crowds who were setting fires in the streets ....
No food - limited water - limited bathroom supplies
Well - ICE didn't give in, they waited.
Trump contacted Newsome and talked to him - and this is where it gets a bit iffy - Newsome says Trump never mentioned calling out the National Guard, but I just can't see that not happening...
We' e all heard Trump - he has no filter, he had to have said it at least once. Before the mention of sending in the MARINES if need be ....
Well, yeasterday 700 Nat. Guard troops showed up.... to keep the protesters from blocking the roads basically ....
Overnight - CARS - whole cars were set ON FIRE in the middle of the streets. And not just any cars - these were the AUTOMATIC, SELF-DRIVING CARS which are being tested in the area .... each car costs up to $100,000!!!!
OMG .... I hope insurance will pay for it, but somehow, I'm doublting it.
Today - it got even rougher .... now MARINES are on stand by (I haven't watched much news today, so I'm not sure what's happened).... overnight POLICE SQUAD CARS (LAPD by the looks of it) were TORCHED in the streets ....
People, the "peaceful protesters", were standing on overpasses of the 401 freeway, and dropping HUGE ROCKS onto cars as they passed underneath ....
So what was ICE's warrant about anyways?
MONEY LAUNDERING and a couple other mafia style issues .... so .... nothing big I guess.
This is nuts ..... it's like the 1980s all over again .... which was a repeat of he 1960s .....
