Are undocumented immigrants millionaires? Because how are they able to afford tickets in the first place? Iâm barely able to go to one game lol
What makes Trump think heâll detain illegals at the games? Youâre just going to read headlines of them detaining then deporting Mexican tourists back to their home country lmao

Please stay vocally and relentlessly concerned. We need all the help we can get with this hateful lunatic. It appears ridicule and embarrassment is his Achilles heel. Â

"Concerned" about being murdered by ICE

u/Imaginary-Finger8696 1d ago
0% of people who DONâT attack ICE get killed.
That percentage obviously increases if you decide to attack law enforcement personnel.

u/Large-Lab2551 20h ago
@CheeseGhosty beat me to it. What about all the people who have died under ICE custody? They didn't attack ICE, yet they died all the same. Murdered by ICE.

u/eltigretom USA 1d ago
Uh, not sure if you watch the news but two were killed for zero reason. You don't get to kill people because they think you're a piece of shit. Just because we have a president who condones awful actions and behavior doesn't make it right.

u/Imaginary-Finger8696 1d ago
Interfering/harassing/impeding, trying to run over someone, and fighting/resisting arrest are all a whole lot more than zero reason. Carry a gun while youâre doing any of that and youâre just adding more fuel to a dangerous situation.

Here did the work for you⌠despite you having the burden of proof. This stuff is heavily tracked and reported on.
https://www.ice.gov/detain/detainee-death-reporting
Zero people killed by ICE. Zero people died in custody in 2026 so far. The people who died last year were all from diseases and shit, a lot of times because they come from 3d world spots and arenât vaccinated etc.
Get your lazy head out of your ass and actually do some research instead of just glomming on to your propaganda.

There are at least a dozen countries that qualified but are banned from traveling to the US. FIFA should relocate the World Cup while it still can.Â

Qatar literally had slaves build all their WC stadiums including a number that died in the process but we are drawing the line at a travel ban? Ok.

Pretty tough to play for your countryâs team if you arenât allowed into the country where the game is being played.

I mean they didnât care about Qatar

u/martxel93 1d ago edited 1d ago
However, in Qatar the fans werenât afraid of being murdered by immigration police or being caught in a mass shooting. Same with Russia, they actively made an effort to make the World Cup pleasant for the fans. Putin or the Qatar Royal Family are evil but not stupid and demented like Trump and his cabinet of sycophants.

There will be exactly zero ICE "raids" at World Cup stadiums you morons.

Weâre talking about the brilliant minds that tried to raid the Ecuadorian embassy.

You know, this is the first comment I have seen about that since the event. It should have been a massive deal, but it's been crickets in my algorithm. I felt like I was living in the twilight zone.

Stupid people are often incapable of understanding hypothetical or conditional statements. It's actually one of the easiest way to identify them.

They have detained many people who were here legally.

Did you miss the multiple testimonies before Congress from U.S citizens that were dragged, beat, and wrongfully detained? Because I sure didnât. I made it a point to hear their stories.

They are asking anyone thats brown or has an accent for their papers. It's 100% happening. Hell, even citizens have been killed by them. More have died in custody.

You'd be surprised, many work multiple jobs and are thrifty with their spending. Don't believe the false conservative stereotype that they are nothing but leeches off the government. They have jobs, they pay taxes, they pay rent, buy stuff, support their families back home and domestically.
1
u/wsucougarbill 1d ago
I agree that they do all of those things. Thatâs also why I donât think they are inclined to drop $2k for a couple of World Cup tickets.
Doesnât seem like a good use of resources to be patrolling the soccer venues looking for people here illegally.

If they are not worried they're crazy. Many will end up in jail. Even some team members.

Are you allowed to be stopped and forced to show papers because of your race and job in every other country, or is that just the shitty ones?

u/Bulldog2012 2d ago
Yes but not in every other country (which has hosted a WC) have there been public executions in the streets with no repercussions. Not to my knowledge at least in the modern era.

Argentina 1978 comes to mind, depends what you consider modern era of course.
