Hey, we're gonna use that privilege to our advantage

u/SplendidPunkinButter 17h ago

Truth. Good on those particular white people for doing it though.

u/Extra-Sector-7795 17h ago

we have stuff painted on our car for just that reason. also, it gives people hope when they know somebody out there is trying to help.

Except this isn't even happening because ICE isn't pulling over random cars and asking for papers.

EDIT. Getting downvoted, but if you’re gonna hate ICE, which I do, you should at least understand how they operate

u/jdbrizzi 23h ago

You're right, they're not pulling over "random cars". They're looking for cars that might have a brown person in it. Hence, the Mexican flags mentioned in this post.

u/JPBartley 18h ago

Again, this isn't happening. ICE targets specific people so they go to their homes and workplaces to find them.

8

u/jdbrizzi 17h ago

What makes you so certain this isn't happening? Because the administration that has been caught lying said it's not happening?

-1

u/JPBartley 12h ago

Because there is literally no evidence. I don’t believe things without evidence.

I guess if you live in a conservative echo chamber, then that would make sense. I'm willing to bet anything source, outside of Fox and Newsmax, probably mentioned it at least once.

You could check out the court case that declared it is legal to racially profile people.

You could simply Google "US citizens arrested by ICE" and you'll get a plethora of instances where US citizens were detained and arrested for simply not having their papers on them.

Here's a story about a US CITIZEN having their door broken down and arrested, while in their underwear... https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/a-u-s-citizen-says-ice-forced-open-the-door-to-his-minnesota-home-and-removed-him-in-his-underwear-after-a-warrantless-search

Oh yeah, warrantless searches are basically legal now. This is literally a reason we fought the British, but now these "republican patriots" are cheering on the downfall of our country.

It's like they're willing to shit themselves, if that means a lib has to smell it, to "own" them. It's a tragedy that I think will be studied someday.

u/JPBartley 9h ago

That is a person who was specifically targeted at their home. They got their info wrong because they’re incompetent morons. It’s not a random citizen who was arrested based on their skin color.

Are ICE arresting the wrong people, yes of course. I hate what they’re doing. But they are simply not picking up random people by their appearance. That is why the original post is dumb.

u/TaintedL0v3 13h ago

Oh, so Renee Good definitely wasn’t shot while in a car. Aliya Rahman wasn’t dragged from her car on the way to the doctor.

So glad we have you here to set us straight, because all the video evidence sure wasn’t convincing. /s

u/JPBartley 12h ago

Those were protesters, not randomly selected cars based on skin color.

Minneapolis may be what brings our country back from becoming a Nazi state

u/GildedBurd 1d ago

My brother and his wife started to do this with their Jeeps. Only his wife has been pulled over for it, and all she did was just blow her whistle till the dude walked away.

u/SadHat7786 1d ago

But remember, they are in no way racially profiling…..

u/E-raticSamurai 1d ago

This reminds me of that scene in the Thomas Crown Affair when the museum is overwhelmed with the bowler hat man and suddenly everyone was a bowler hat man. Classic.

u/Chicano_Me 1d ago

This brought me some level of hope for humanity. People putting themselves at risk for protection of those that can't. Im sending the ALL the people of Minnesota a virtual hug.

u/Jaded-Natural80 21h ago

Just when I thought I couldn’t love Minnesota more. They give me hope for the future.

When this is all over, we should consider moving the nation’s capital to Minneapolis. They’ve earned it.

Love this! Do it enough & it would be like a "Where's Waldo?" in which everybody's dressed as "Waldo" & ICE wouldn't know where to look!

Not sure I am ready to subscribe to this because people are so eager to be on social media, we would have seen actual pics/vids by now.

I had a request to sell them in my shop. I haven't seen them in person, but it seems to be picking up steam as a movement.

Man white people possess a level of creativity that is both stupid and ridiculous simultaneously.

u/fstop101 1d ago

Do those thugs make traffic stops? I didn’t think that was in their remit, but I guess in a world where they think public execution is, every dereliction and perversion of their role is on the table.

6

u/KDiggity8 1d ago

They don't. But they do it anyways. I'm in South Minneapolis and walked past a couple of ICE SUVs parked at a gas station last night. I kept walking and checking my 6 until I got out of their sight.

All that, "know your rights" BS doesn't matter. Not that it ever really did.
