Don't worry.They'll learn a valuable lesson from the fallout from this and similar cases.
From then on, ICE will make sure their victims really are dead.
the actual fuck
So they can't even identify the bodies. Yea that'll end well.
- It's not that they can't. It's that they don't care enough. Plus they enjoy the suffering.
- They need IBM's help.
  
  For those unaware: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_and_the_Holocaust
  
  Maybe someone should start helping people hide from ICE and they can make a movie about the list in a couple years.
  
  Ah, good old DEHOMAG.
Sounds like ICE just committed fraud.
- Really that's on the very low end of what they are committing
  
  Insurance companies and the IRS tend to not like fraud and have a wee bit more money and political power than the average family. But you are not wrong.
- Unbelievable!
They deported him for losing his wallet.
- Nothing says “law and order” like shoving innocent people into unmarked cars over lost pieces of paper. /s
- “Papers, please.”
  
  If they want to honor their cosplay they should yell "AUSWEIS BITTE".
jesus fucking christ
when will people start fighting back?
- They won’t until upper middle class college educated white people start being affected. The Vietnam War didn’t become a controversial topic with this demographic until they started drafting college students. Once they start sending wealthier native born white people to camps for voting Democrat is when the fighting will happen on a national scale.
  
  Uhhh this dude looks white.
  
  Funny, isn't it. All this time the left has yelled about those republicans who "only care about things when it affects them".

  (wtf how does code indentation work in this shithole??)
  
  while true: history(∞)
  Same as Reddit. For each line of code indent 4 spaces.
- I support this.

- "What's the difference between today and 1938?"

- Serbia too while at it
- Tell you what- the world can consider helping out when even one person out a couple hundred million American cowards lifts a single goddamn finger.
  
  Literally multiple millions of people showed up for nationwide protests just over a month ago
  
  Does the alleged green mario count?
  
  Love the keyboard warriors who would absolutely not do a single fucking thing themselves demanding others sacrifice themselves
  
  There's been a lot of effective action, and you'll never see it on the news.
  
  What part of "burn it down" did you take to mean helping America lmfao.
I'm sure there are unreported deaths in ICE custody
The douchiest of douchbags. This could participate in the asshole Olympics and get gold easily.
- My favorite event is the prolapse hammer throw
Change my view: the greencard has become a Kennkarte for immigrants, and we are in 1938 in the Nazi Germany timeline.
- The parallels are scary. But seriously fight back your future is at stake. I have never seen such a rise in hatred and immotivated targeting of any cultural dissent in the past few years. Now anything non trumpish is being seen as un-american, but Trump is un-american, betraying in the most vulgar way the constitution. Now even legal paying foreigners are seeing more shit. And now even Americans are seeing some shit too, and it's getting worse with palantir collecting anything personal.
- Well, one difference is that all the shirts are made in China.
Come on seppos. Rise up already.
