"Another political football! … but this one is tough to source.
I don’t understand, who would be against deporting illegal criminal aliens? Seems like a strange subset to want to defend.
One nice lady I talked to from the group spoke about an individual with pedophilia charges being deported back to France , but didn’t seem to grasp the irony of the situation. Who wants that guy?
My work frequently takes me to Santa Maria where I interact with folks with varying legal status.
I think my solidly white, highly ‘educated’ neighbors would be surprised to find that most of those hard working , family - oriented people don’t want the “ bad boys” around either.
The growing problem of organized drug trade operators - in both NorCal and the desert counties is going to have to be dealt with somehow, sooner or later as well."

"Yep. I used to donate to the Red Cross, until they went off the rails with salaries and non-emergencies. I also used to donate heavily to the Boy Scouts, until they, also, went off the rails of the very purpose Lord Baden-Powell instituted.
I now donate exclusively to the USO. While their executive makes about 120+K per year, the USO works daily, every day, all year, to get supplies, support, and exclusive entertainment to deployed service members anywhere on the planet. Recall, this is not a government organization, but their AFR is less than 30%, which isn't bad....not great, but not bad. Anything that is shipped on military aircraft, must be paid freight, no freebies "just because". Otherwise, it must be shipped commercial. So the AFR bothers me hardly at all.
Since I have had, personally, many years of USO support, they have a special place in my wallet :)"

"The vast majority of Sikh drivers are citizens or are here legally. There are dozens of legitimate Sikh trucking businesses on the West Coast. The argument that white Americans in the 21st century want to drive long haul trucks is about as false as the claim that white Americans will pick strawberries if farmers just raised wages for such labor. But don’t let me stop you from denigrating an immigrant community that has been highly productive for the U.S. economy."

"Hogwash, every LE analyst I read said the actions of those officers reflected poor training. They are trained not to stand in front of a vehicle, never try to open the door and do not shoot into a moving vehicle. Too many innocent bystanders. Furthermore, even you know that Trump’s claim she was a domestic terrorist doesn’t hold water.
And, yes, it most certainly does seem to matter who you voted for. Trump is sending the message that if you disagree with him, you could end up dead. Sets up well for MAGA in November when they take over the midterm elections with heavily armed, masked thugs like Mr. Ross. “Fucking bitch” indeed. This is no longer America and if I wasn’t almost 90 I would move to another country."

"As Trump's dementia grows and his narcissism transitions to megalomania, he becomes more grandiose and dangerous. The chaos the country is experiencing now will get worse. He sees enemies everywhere in the US and the civil disorder and fighting will also get worse in the next year. Our country is in real trouble."
