Last week, top ICE officials ordered officers to increase arrests and to get “creative” in their methods, including trying to nab people the officers happen to encounter in what are known as “collateral arrests.” The orders come in the wake of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller setting a quota of 3,000 immigration arrests per day, along with a sharp rise in protests against the crackdown.
In Westbury, the HSI agents didn’t respond to the gathered crowd. After a few minutes, the agents drove away. A commotion erupted down the road, off-camera, and onlookers began rushing toward the corner.
One of the Nissans, carrying two of the HSI agents, had crashed into a black pickup truck that happened to be passing through the intersection. Three eyewitnesses told The Intercept that the agents’ car had sped away. Two of the witnesses believe the Nissan blew a stop sign, causing the crash. (Nassau County police referred questions about the accident to ICE, which did not respond to an inquiry.)
I’m thinking that if ICE et al keeps this up, pretty soon random people are gonna start taking sneaky potshots at them. Amongst many, many other things, these dipshits are actively making their own jobs wildly more dangerous.
One can only hope.
That would bring the military into our communities even quicker. Seems like a very bad idea.
The only bad idea is sitting back and just complaining online.
Sniping ICE agents would make things much worse much more quickly.
Maybe the progression of violence is inevitable, but once you start killing pigs, it will all happen very quickly.
The progression of violence has been enacted by the government for decades… Sitting around waiting is just letting them put on the cuffs before fighting back. https://lemmy.world/post/31339564
Look man, I am a protesting, pro-physical intervention, pro-whatever it takes leftist. All I’m saying is random people shooting at ICE is going to end protest and resistance, and begin the part where the government shoots and kills protestors and resistance on sight.
If you think that’s the best plan, that’s fine. I do not. I think there is more that needs to happen before the shooting starts.
I own many guns. I practice with them. I have thousands of rounds of ammunition. When the government starts shooting people, I will decide if I’m ready to die to protect my family and community.
But I’m not gonna kill myself and dozens of others by foolishly “taking a pot shot” at these fucking nazis.
When the government starts shooting people??? 🤦What caliber is required for it to count as shooting? Ballistic missile???

Once again this is nothing new, been only getting worse my entire life.
Enjoy the fascists they’ll only keep winning with folks like this so proud of themselves.
Alright man. Stay safe out there.
If you’re afraid of attacking their person, then attack their property.
We can all work together to make sure ICE agents don’t get nice suburban houses that aren’t covered in eggs and toilet paper.
We can all work together to make sure their tires don’t have air in them as often as possible.
much worse
Also much better. And they’re goinh to get worse if you do nothing, too.
Yeah. Useless fucks.
Oh shit, yeah. Can’t have the military in our communities.
checks outside that would be even wirse than those guys in camo and modern gear holding rifles stranding around. The grey painted armored vehivles with doohickeys on the roof. Much less scary than having the military in my community.
The military is already in our communities dummy
100%. We should be encouraging them without identifying them.
Not suprising, they already did a hit and run on a cyclist and pedestrian in LA.
So they cover their faces but drive their own cars? Or am I missing something?
it’s not clear from the except whether the nissan was a personal or federal vehicle (and I’m not clicking through more than one screen of cookies/adblock nonsense to read the rest of it)
Do we know if they aren’t just deputized proud boys?
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a federal car that wasn’t Ford, Chevrolet, or Dodge, you know, American brands. I mean there has to be some but I haven’t seen one.
I dont think the cars are externally marked.
“Ice agent feld from angry residents outside new york school” is so funny. I want to shake one of hte residents hands.
Damn these ICE agents are a threat to everyone.
Always have been.
I hope every ICE agent dies of slow colon cancer
I know someone who died of fast colon cancer, and I’d be okay with ICE agents going the same way.
Bone cancer would be more painful. Just saying.
Yeah, that’s the problem … they’ll live with colon cancer until they’re 88 years of age and become a career politician
I feel sorry for the colon cancer
Or fast. I’m not picky.
Well it would be ICE agent colon cells. Don’t feel too bad for it.
My wife just got declared to be colon cancer free. It was a close thing. Can we go with wishing some other cause of death on them? Maybe a fire? Or multiple stab wounds?
Honestly, I get you. After watching my wife have a stroke, I feel the same way. I was just parroting an edgy joke.
“Edgy”, that’s it! Wood chipper, cutting themselves while shaving, falling onto a scythe, whatever… as long as it involves an edge!
But you… I hope you die at age 249 after breaking the record for most orgasms, then pass away peacefully in your sleep surrounded by loved ones and soft animals… (the animals were not involved in the prior activity)
I drove an aunt to the hospital with a minor stroke. It was terrible and horrible. Terror. Horror.
Know that a random guy wishes you and your wife the best.
Thanks, I kinda needed that right now.
DM me anytime.
I won’t, but thanks
I watched most of the people i love die of cancer.
I feel like it’s pretty much what they deserve.
I hope they die of treatable cancer, because no doctor will touch them. That would hurt worse. I’ve been on the edge of death a couple times, and the ones where nobody could have helped didn’t hurt emotionally anywhere near as bad as the ones where anybody could have fixed it.
My wife is in recovery from burns after I stabbed her and set fire to her boyfriend’s apartment.
Can we go back to colon cancer?
not so fun fact, non healing burns/scars /wounds are known to cause rare form of skin cancer(agressive SCC), yess squamous cell cancer can be quite deadly, if it forms from a burn scar.
Sending you good vibes.
You’d better stick with a different choice, no sense tempting an evil rebound. But I think I’m gonna start casting colon cancer on orangeface fatfuck. Maybe a few massive blood clots to go with it. Why can you never find a lump of polonium when you need it?
On the one hand, yes. On the other, I don’t want them to stick around doing evil for a long time. Maybe something immediately debilitating that takes a long time to finish?
Rabies
Westbury: “in Latino-heavy New York suburbs.”
Ummmmmmmm… Unless Westbury changed in the 6 months since I’ve been there, it’s a really wealthy area. Not that Latinos can’t be wealthy, but my dad lives there, I’m literally going there Sunday. I wouldn’t exactly describe it as Latino-heavy, unless you aim to describe the entirety of Long Island as Latino-heavy…
There is one nice area in west bury with senior living apartments. Rest is pretty low income .
the labor is
rich fucks love under the table workers
Indeed. Which honestly the characterization of Long Island as being “Latino-heavy” isn’t exactly wrong. Everywhere I’ve worked (almost all of my work history is blue collar) I’m side by side with a not insignificant number of them. I’m honestly glad I took my father’s advice and learned some Spanish in highschool, because it has been handy at work although admittedly I’ve forgotten most of it lol
The dude in the still looks like one of those murdaugh murderers from SC.
The site linked has too many popups.
You deal with ANY amount of pop ups still? Dude its 2025, get ublock origin.
I have it and love it on pc. Is there a way to get it on iOS?

If ICE is meeting resistance even in a place like Westbury, then at least something is going right.
Where ICE fucked up is publicly and repeatedly showing they go after the weakest target.
Compliance gets you nothing and costs you everything.
And eventually, there’s going to be a point where there’s no easy targets that won’t resist left
Either they’ll already have been taken, or they’ll realize compliance is pointless.
This is America, we got more guns than people. If you’re already facing deportation to a fucking death camp, a gun charge ain’t gonna mean shit.
I’m not saying people should, because it’s gonna lead to horrible shit, but the writings on the wall, it’s gonna start happening if ICE keeps it up
ICE’s behavior has emboldened criminals to impersonate ICE agents to rob and kidnap people. This is going to end very badly indeed because a reasonable person would arm themselves when this becomes as common as it is likely to get. And a lot of people are going to get shot and killed.
You don’t have to say it. I’ll do it for you: we should all shoot every ICE member on sight. No questions asked.
That’s not what should happen and you should be ashamed of yourself. Murder is not something to take lightly.
Cry harder.
It’s a start.
Why is the title shouting at me?
If I lived in a country where people cum on their weapons, and where I was afraid of school shootings and kidnappings; I would shoot on sight / beat to mush, any masked person near a school that isn’t identifying themselves…
Where did you read that people in the US cum on their weapons? I have no doubt you can find porn relating to that, but it isn’t likely to be commonplace. For one thing, it’s going to lead to jams…
I just assume given the obsession with guns.
Pearl jams anyway.

For shooting bullets or for getting loads shot on it? Or both?
Well, they are succeeding in making me fearful enough to feel I need a gun. Doubt I’ll get one. Too many mental health concerns in the house. But this shit will come to a head and it’ll be what it is, just with more fresh and violence.
What do you think the last straw will be, that will drive you to action?
I’m taking action in unarmed ways. Floated the idea of a gun past my wife and she was vehemently against it. Sometimes she just needs to sit with an idea for a bit so she might come around. Ironically she has more experience with a pistol than me. I’ve basically only fired an M-16.
We’ll see what happens today. Once the government starts shooting people, or the civilian Nazis do, I think the die is cast. I think the necessity will be clear. But it might be too late at that point.
“collateral arrests”= unconstitutional and kidnapping.
And “anti-law enforcement agitators” = non-whites who don’t want their children kidnapped.
These fucking people are sick…
Cops aren’t people.
Yeah, they are. Dehumanization is not okay “if my side is doing it.”
I think you’re attacking the symptom rather than the disease.
And i think they chose inhumanity. To call them human would not only be an insult to us, but disregarding their own self identification and chosen identity.
“They chose inhumanity”
Jesus fucking Christ… You really think you have the high ground with this kind of thinking, don’t you?
Hate only breeds hate. When you dehumanize your enemies, you already lost.
So, Imma go back to my philosophy 101 argument structure days. Fill in the blank.
Premise 1. Racists should never feel safe being racists. Premise 2. Nobody willingly becomes an ICE agent without being a racist. Conclusion: Therefore, … ?
ICE should never feel safe, at any time, ever again. Make them NEED marines and NG cover every time they go out for one of their abduction raids.
Make waiting too long to quit the job ruin their lives, and the lives of anyone around them.
Anyone who fucks them, serves them coffee, gives them a loan, treats their injuries, or rents them a room at a coffin hotel, should be made to regret it.
