    If ICE/cops are charged with some kind of token offense - it will be for entirely unimportant misdemeanors.

    They’ll be charged with property damage because stray bullets broke some windows. Chuds will froth at the mouth and be outraged

      Normal cops do that shit all the time, they almost never get personally charged.

      Maybe local property owners win a lawsuit against the local police, after 2 years, but then its just the city paying the insurance companies, meaning everyone is taxed for this… and the cops administrative leave paid vacation was only a couple weeks, maybe a month, they’ve been back at their job for over a year by the time the lawsuit finishes.

      Local property owners could try to sue… ICE? DHS? … If they can figure out who these guys are?

      … And then that gets laughed out of court at some level, potentially the Supreme Court.

      This is full military police state shit, I’d be amazed if there is any kind of accountability, in any legal sense, for any of this… as our entire legal system is in the process of more or less cannibalizing itself right now.

        only the coolest legal systems have unrepresented 4 year olds in court having a “judge” explain to them what deportation is
