State Leadership doesn't give a shit about ICE abducting people, they'll do anything except take action against ICE because they know where the state and local PD loyalties lie (lemmy.world)

Healy, Markey, Warren, all of them doing nothing to stop people being abducted. No orders to stop ICE, no arrests, assurances the cops stand with the community but they're helping ICE at every turn.

Traitors the lot of them, they're willing to sacrifice the most vulnerable to hold up this fantasy that some miracle will save them from having to actually hold anyone accountable. It's shameful and they should be ashamed but hey they don't seem to be capable.

Abducted that mother, arrested her daughter, no consequences will come of it. Cowards all of them, Mayor Wu too she's awfully quiet after talking shit to Trump because all they have is talk, just letting Trump do what he wants with no real pushback.

Oh yeah they got the Tufts student possibly released great, her kidnappers are still free to do as they please and will continue to be. It's a fucking joke

Large enough crowds can de-arrest people. Makes them spend more resources, be more careful, and sometimes avoid certain areas

Yeah they tried that in Worcester and that’s why like 50 cops showed up

Yeah the tactic has limits. But needing 50 cops each time isn't as easy

Agreed, I just wish state leadership wasn’t backing the cops over the people. They talk tough but they’ve shown they’ll back down when push comes to shove
