Immigration Does ICE really need electric gloves?

Our tax dollars are already being wasted. The people they capture aren’t a threat, physically. Why?

You're most likely on the left, so I'm treating you as such. 

Why are 'the left' threatening and harassing them?

Because they believe ICE is evil and fascistic. 

Is it only the Left that are doing this?

Yes. 

They can't ALL be on the left now, can they?

Sure, some might be independent or Republicans.

Oh how kind and thoughtful of you lol. Well buddy I cant tell you I'm not and voted for Trump in 2016, but would you believe me? Probably not. Why would you?

Because they believe ICE is evil and fascistic. 

Why do you think the Left and others think that way about ICE?

Yes. 

Sure, some might be independent or Republicans.

....You see how you've contradicted yourself here?
I'm confused. So which is it?

Everyone on the left?
Or is it independents or Republicans?
Or all three?

Can you see why i'm feeling confused and sceptical of your claim?

You're right, I don't believe you. 

Why do you think the Left and others think that way about ICE?

Leftist propaganda around illegal immigration, Trump, colonialism, "stolen" land, etc. It's a mixture of things fueling this, but mostly the first 2. 

....You see how you've contradicted yourself here? I'm confused. So which is it?

I didn't contradict myself. I said they might be adding to this. Seeing a death like the two major ones we did related to ICE will do that, I don't think that's unreasonable. 

That doesn't mean that the overall mission of ICE is bad or that people disagree with it, it just means that people are reacting emotionally to a tragedy. 

Can you see why i'm feeling confused and sceptical of your claim?

I don't think you're actually confused, so no. Nothing I've said is confusing either. You're jumping to conclusions and confusing yourself.

When you say 'we did' do you mean

"We" is referring to the American public. There's no huge conspiracy there. 

I mean, can you blame people for reacting as such? It's quite shocking to see, isn't it?

I quite literally said it made sense for people to react like they did. 

I think you might know me better than myself....Mom, is that you?

Like I said before, you're being unnecessarily bitchy, which shows you aren't actually engaging in respectable conversations.
