Definitive proof of citizenship won’t stop ICE from beating or killing you if you have an accent or non-white skin.

They might still just execute you in the street if they think you’re talking back to them shrug

I am not going to lie and say it’s 100% effective. But it most certainly will quickly get you out of ICE’s attention 80% of the time when you are not wanting a confrontation at that time.

From what I’m seeing, ICE doesn’t give a flying fuck if you have a valid ID or not, they’re still going to collar you. Their policy is literally to fuck around first and find out later.

That’s from the videos that get widely shared.
95% of interactions are gonna be them being dicks but backing off when they realize you’re there legally. The other 5% are gonna be the ones you see.

Where do these numbers come from? Internet magic?

There are many ways to be there legally without being a citizen.

I’d love to know where 80% comes from. Because I’m in Minnesota and can see what’s happening on our streets. Where are you getting your info from? You sound soooooo sure of yourself and what you are saying contradicts evidence.
NateNate60@lemmy.world 1 month ago
It’s a guess without any empirical evidence whatsoever. However, the only reason why you believe it “contradicts evidence” is because nobody ever talks about ICE encounters that go down peacefully. People only ever talk about and post about ICE encounters that are outrageous. So all the encounters you have ever heard of will be ones where someone gets wrongfully arrested/beaten up by agents/etc.
When I saw them, they were checking everyone and arrested 0 people in the time I observed them.

The admin is hating in white people too. You might have heard of that white woman executed on false pretense recently, celebrated by leadershio.

They’re targeting anybody who challenges their authority, starting with people who look different (foreigners first)
