You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
FUK ICE! KEEP THE TRUMPENREICH OUT OF EASTON!
ReplyDeleteToo bad their coming soon
DeleteYou girly-boyz can easily relocate across the bridge to P'burg.
Delete*they’re
DeleteIf you came here illegally, you broke the law. You deserve to be deported. My grandparents came here legally! Do the same! Let them do their jobs. If you interfere nothing good will come out of it. Why don’t you protest those illegals who killed Americans.
DeletePeople looking out for illegal criminals They are very smart people.
ReplyDeleteTraitors -- this is against federal government these people should also be deported.
ReplyDeleteICE is needed in the Lehigh valley start in Easton and work your way down 22
ReplyDeleteUnconfirmed, reportedly, according to unnamed sources, . . . . . either way, this would all be good news to me.
ReplyDeleteIf ICE actually was there to apprehend specific, known criminals there’s nothing to be worried about. Removing known criminal illegal entrants to this nation is a POSITIVE thing! We need to support much more of this.
There has to be hundreds of such bad actors all across the Lehigh Valley. We should welcome and applaud them.
I don't think anyone objects to the removal of the "worst of the worst" in targeted enforcement. It is the sweeping raids that make real Americans angry
DeleteLet's start at 5th & Hamilton where we can quickly resolve this situation.
DeleteDefine “real Americans”.
DeleteThank God!! About time they got here!
ReplyDeleteI suspect your approval of the thuggery we've all seen is NOT the sentiment of most people who vote and you and your ideology are going to pay a price in the midterms.
DeleteBy the way, food prices remain high in part bc of labor shortages caused by a shortage of farm workers who are usually brought in on work visas. Another reason are Trump's tariffs.
Way to make America great again.
Return to open borders. Yeah, I don’t think Americans want that again. Why don’t you talk about the agitators in Minnesota who are attacking journalists and stopping American -citizens in their cars and demanding ID and running their license plates. Are they the law? Paint the full picture.
Delete@7:15PM Shh. Don't want those pesky facts or videos getting in the way of the gaslighting. We do have a narrative to maintain here you know.
DeleteThis reminds me of the 1966 Cold War comedy, "The Russians are coming, the Russians are coming!" featuring Brian Keith, Alan Arkin, Carl Reiner, and Eva Marie Saint. A timeless classic.
ReplyDelete“EeMehrGenCee, EvReeBahDee Cleeer De Street!” Funny, and adoptable by both sides’ arguments.
DeleteThis is like when the state issued a tattletale line for bars and churches during covid. This is who we are.
ReplyDeleteICE was also spotted along most streets and alleys where crews did a poor job of clearing roads after the recent storms.
ReplyDeleteI'm allowing one ICE joke. I saw enough of them yesterday, lol.
DeleteNot sure about ICE sightings, but I did see PETA trying to snatch Punxsutawney Phil from his den early this morning; but the mob of fans got there first.
ReplyDeleteKeep your eyes open for Jesus and Raymundo.
ReplyDeletePutin's plan, United they stand & Divided they fall!
ReplyDeleteHelp me me understand how tracking movements of law enforcement officers, and publishing these things so folks can show up while they are doing their work, making arrests or conducting investigations is a good thing...
ReplyDeleteIt's a good thing when ICE and Border Patrol engage in Gestapo like tactics, begin arresting innocent people, stop people simply bc they look different, chase down 5 yo kids, start arresting American citizens on their way to work and start shooting people in the face and in the back.
DeleteI read until the word gestapo, which betrays the hyperbole of an unserious post. [[sigh]]
Delete@ 2:00 pm At this point it's like why even bother.
DeleteSo you made a straw man argument and didn’t really answer my question.
DeleteSo the "peaceful" protesters can cause chaos & get more people killed.
DeleteMost people as Bernie states......most people are not upset about ICE. For those that are here illegally they were given a chance to self deport. Many did. Those that did not may be picked up. I don't think most people have a problem with this.
ReplyDeleteThis is all nonsense.
ReplyDeleteICE is great ICE is great ICE is great
ReplyDeleteBernie, I think your problem is you are trying to inject subtlety into an area where the sides are so polarized. Our nation has a low birth-rate and we have labor shortages in those undesirable occupations that migrants are willing to do but US-born people do not. We need immigration to fund social security for the future and to help our economy. It seems reasonable that we can selectively, and with constitutional due process, weed out the bad actors and allow in those who only wish to become productive citizens. I'm reading a lot of sad, racist posts from those who want the country to go back to the "old days", and I really wonder if these are the same folks who voted for GWB's compassionate conservatism, which was itself an attempt to live our country's supposedly Christian values.
ReplyDeleteAre you saying we need non English speaking immigrants to enhance the labor force that Abe Lincoln messed up by freeing the slaves?
Delete“…we have labor shortages in those undesirable occupations that migrants are willing to do but US-born people do not.”
ReplyDeleteThese are similar to the arguments made in support of slavery before the Civil War. SOMEBODY had to pick the crops.
What we have now are jobs that US-born people won’t do for the depressed wages caused by illegal aliens willing to work under the table for less. Remove the illegals, pay a fair wage for those professions, and there won’t be an issue.
"Unconfirmed' being the optimal word in the article, typical Easton bullshit.
ReplyDeleteOur country's Christian values?
ReplyDeleteMixing religion with politics is NEVER a good idea.
Local police should not engage with Ice sweep methods.
ReplyDeleteJelly Roll siad no political party owns religion. Maga should practice the Bible, not waive it.
This is nonsense- right out of the Marx playbook: organized chaos!
ReplyDeleteICEOUT LOL!
