The irony of two ICE agents, one black and one seemingly a Cuban immigrant, racially profiling a black man and cuffing him and carting him off without ever even identifying him because they say he’s an immigrant.

It kills me how often these videos show brown and black ICE agents violating the US Constitution to abduct and beat people for being brown or black. I don’t care how much ICE pays, it’s not worth selling out your own values and everything that was supposed to be good about this country.

    You win the prize. Thank you. For those who don’t understand the racism in selfish fred’s comment:

    If I understand my history correctly some African tribes would kidnap other tribes people and sold them to salvers. There always people of color that have the mentality that they are different then other POC. Not sure why that is though.

    Translation: “Brown or black, you ni**ers are all the same. You sold yourselves into slavery.”

    And the revision here:

    There are always people that have the mentality that they are different than other people. Not sure why that is though.

    Translation: “I don’t understand why people can’t accept that we’re all the same despite our differences.”

      Get fuck never said anything racist just answer fucking question of “why would poc join ICE?” Same fucking thing through out history. There is always someone who thinks they not the same. Just like I met black man in youth who defended the cofendrancy and would use the hard N word against black people and 100% meant it. Never understood that probably never will.

        Yes, the thing you said was extremely racist. You not understanding why or how does not change that. Look at your words and then my translation of your words a few times and try to understand why they convey the same meaning to many black people.

        You’re doing it again right now. You’re making it an issue of race and not an issue of humans having 8 billion plus different points of view and all being individuals.

        I’m blocking you, because my blood pressure can’t handle ignorant racism at the moment.
