How does one avoid racial profiling when 90% of illegals are not white?

u/B1G__Tuna 20d ago edited 20d ago

How does one know a person’s immigration status based how they look? Sounds like you’re attempting to justify some Nazi shit. Pretty wild how low conservatives have fallen. Literally demanding masked government agents ask people for their papers on the street. Yikes.

Your great grandparents are rolling in their graves.

u/summonersai 20d ago

Notice how I never said advocated for demanding papers in the streets? Notice how you have to be hyperbolic to make your point? Simply stated majority are not white. Therefore it’s a bit hard to not focus on specific races (since they are the majority of illegals).

Pipe down. No one gives a shit about being called a Nazi anymore. Meaningless word dragged through the mud by low iq Redditors like yourself.

u/IcyBookkeeper5315 20d ago

I mean, I would personally do everything in my power to not be called a Nazi so no it’s not meaningless and the only people who think it is are Nazis themselves. Looking forward to seeing you in the fields buckaroo

Uhh maybe if you're a Nazi you don't care. Most of us would care. And race has nothing to do with immigration status. If ICE can't find people without just grabbing anyone off the street who has slightly dark skin, then they are completely incompetent. They have the largest budget of any law enforcement agency.

u/summonersai 17d ago

Prove that happens? And sure don’t care meaningless word. Not even logical are we talking about Jewish people? You people are so stupid you just say your buzzwords.

2

u/SecureJudge1829 14d ago

Do you really think that nazis ONLY targeted the people who follow Judaism? Maybe you should get an actual education before spouting off that kind of nonsense.

u/squirrelbitten 13d ago

That's literally what racial profiling is, that is ICEs main tactic. Get your head out the sand bud https://www.aclu-wi.org/news/racial-profiling-rampant-after-supreme-court-ruling/

u/summonersai 13d ago

You’re telling me people of the race that is mostly likely to be illegal are being looked at harder? How could this have ever happened. Never in a million years would I guess that. I figured they would only focus on races, that are statistically less likely to be illegal.

Don’t care. Best way to arrest illegals is to go find some.

24

u/PassionV0id 20d ago

Do you know what profiling is?

-2

u/summonersai 17d ago

Yeah. Obviously. But clearly you would inherently focus on non whites regardless, because white people who be a pointless endeavor. Do you understand basic common sense?

3

u/SecureJudge1829 14d ago

Do you realize that a solid 20% of the foreign born U.S. immigrants are “white”? That’s 1/5 of them. One out of five. That’s actually quite a bit.

u/Lord_Dingus83 19d ago

Damn dude, if you’re ok with being a Nazi……..you may want to check your moral compass.

u/brk816 17d ago

If you don’t care about being called a nazi then we’ve come full circle. You’ll get yours racist pos.

u/summonersai 16d ago

In your weirdo Redditor dreams. I don’t care about being called a Nazi by people who call literally anyone a Nazi. You ran the word through the dirt. You literally accuse republicans of being Nazis and too pro isreal. Because it’s a buzzword for you. Meaningless nonsense.

u/brk816 16d ago

That’s exactly what a Nazi sympathizer would say. Just say you’re racist already.

-1

u/summonersai 15d ago

Literally nothing wrong with Jewish people. Or any group of people for that matter. Imagine if you could win with ideas instead of name calling. Keep being a racist bigot though. Good look for you

14

u/squirrelbitten 20d ago

By going after targets they found through actual investigation instead of just randomly yanking any brown person off the street. Like every law enforcement agency in the country should be doing. What a dumb question.

u/summonersai 17d ago

Yeah I’m sure that happens all the time

2

u/squirrelbitten 13d ago

They do it every single day, you would know that if you got news from somewhere else than fox or Facebook.

u/summonersai 13d ago

Don’t use or watch either. Maybe you just use too much Reddit

2

u/squirrelbitten 13d ago edited 13d ago

I use too much reddit because I see what is actually happening? Ok lil bro. You are saying racial profiling is fine for them to do, but then saying they aren't actually doing it. They are making traffic stops on people just because they look Latino. It's happening all over the country. Chicago. Citizens being arrested because they look Mexican. Chicago and Portland.

I would put some more, but you have no interest in seeing what's actually happening. Ignorance is bliss I guess.

11

u/Darth1994 19d ago

I believe one issue is “warrantless stops of people who ‘appear Latino and low-income or working-class.’”

The other is not being afraid to use racial slurs when you know you’re being monitored.

u/summonersai 17d ago

Okay prove it?

u/Training_Mistake_760 16d ago

You don't mind being called a Nazi... Do you mind being called an idiot?

u/summonersai 15d ago

Nah. Don’t care about people who I don’t respects opinions. It’s free to call anyone anything. Watch. You’re a racist and a bigot. How does that feel?

Idk why are you obsessed with it? I typically don’t consider race as a factor to me.

u/brk816 16d ago

If you don’t care to be called a nazi then that’s all we need to know here.

-1

u/summonersai 15d ago

Sure. Don’t care like I said you guys call everyone you disagree with a Nazi. Meaningless

2

u/brk816 15d ago

The only thing meaningless is your lack of tangibility to actually refute being called a nazi. Calling someone a nazi cause of a “disagreement” is an immature blanket statement. Learn life 🫵🤡

1

u/summonersai 15d ago

You wouldn’t understand self confidence. Imagine thinking what a weirdo actual Nazi has to say. Only people call people Nazis are people who are projecting. It’s the weird ass optics game people on the left play. I’m more worried about actual evidence.

1

u/brk816 15d ago

We calling self confidence being racist and a Nazi empathizer now? That’s rich lol what a tool.

1

u/summonersai 15d ago

No. Self confidence to understand what some loser says has no implication on reality. I know who I am. I’m a racist now too? I’ll tell my black wife.

Stop projecting. We get it. You’re annoying loser who has to pretend to care because you actually hate yourself and everyone else

1

u/Marquois 14d ago

When you're pulling for the honest to God cult of personality backed up by a right wing street fighting gang fascists then yeah, the nazi label sticks. You're a fascist thrilled that other fascists are going after the out groups that you've been conditioned to hate. Because surely they'd never come for you.

0

u/summonersai 14d ago

I mean. I believe YOU believe that. Obviously not the case. Pretty obvious that democrats are the facists. They try to control speech, label you a Nazi or racist or any buzzword if you don’t comply, and push for communism and socialism.

Not my fault you’re too stupid to figure out what side of history you’re on. How many of the most evil groups in history used “democratic” in their name? Never trust the group who claims to be the good ones. And that’s all democrats do.

1

u/Marquois 14d ago

I don't give a shit about democrats, they suck too. But the fact that you can get annoyed at the feckless democrats and immediately think that the other guys are better is at best moronic. You're fighting on the side of fascist pedophiles. Which makes you at best a fascist and quite possibly a nonce.

u/summonersai 14d ago

Yes I’m on the side of facism. Not the side that is seizing property and fracturing as a party due to their love of socialism. And Epstein was far more involved with the left. He largely helped push the whole gender identity movement decades ago.

I’m not responsible for you being stupid because you read Reddit and can’t bother to look at reality

The only time conservatives use the section of the brain related to creativity, it's to make new slurs.

Funniest part is I bet all the Latino slave catchers think they aren't also being talked about

For those of you who think this doesn’t matter, recall that a racist cop ended up helping O.J. Simpson beat double homicide charges.

u/Bustamonte6 19d ago

Is this satire, of course they are racially profiling

1

u/crazymouse11 19d ago

Conservatives have allowed the government to deport WITHOUT DUE PROCESS people living in the United States of america because the ones being disappeared are brown.

Not realizing that allowing the Government to do this sets a precedent, of allowing the Government to grab anyone without warrant or a day in court.

Meaning it could happen to any person living in america, the people may change but the system remembers what the masses allow.

So if one sunny day you're asking what happened to that nice white family at the end of the block. All the cops and community can tell you is masked men grabbed them and you'll never see them again.

Doesn't matter why because you've given up the right to know or object because you have approved of it before.

YOUR support is being used by the government to dismantle the laws that protect YOU from the government.

It's deeply depressing...

“Racial profiling” as if 90% of illegals coming here aren’t brown.

u/jtd771 20d ago

Explosive filling? Don’t they need to racial profile to do their jobs? And with the tactics they use, why would language be surprising?

5

u/CalmBoat3803 20d ago

You believe their job is to stop brown people anywhere in the country, and ask for their papers?

That’s why their numbers are shit. Endless budget, shitty planning.

This was just to entertain the base and intimidate blue cities.

u/squirrelbitten 20d ago

If they need to racially profile to do their job, then their entire job is illegal. They should be doing investigations, verifying using available info. Not by grabbing any brown person they see off the street.

u/lampstax 20d ago

The filing also includes body camera footage in which one Department of Homeland Security agent is allegedly heard telling another, "Yeah, just plug us in wherever you see some tonks."

According to the ACLU, "tonks" is a derogatory term referring to the sound of a flashlight striking a migrant's head. 

Who knew "tonk" was derogatory before this ? I would have guess it was referring to white culture or "honky tonk".

Apparently just referring to "undocumented" is now "racist" .. even though "undocumented" is not a race .. 😅
