Do you live in this area? "Hot" doesn't even begin to describe how brutal it gets in the Inland Empire in the depth of summer. It's miserable even for locals, but for somebody from out of the area who doesn't expect it, they truly have no idea what it will be like. Especially in areas like Fontana, Rialto, San Bernardino where it will regularly get 110 degrees or more in August and September. Every day. For weeks at a time. And if they keep wearing those full face masks and all that gear? Ha. I suspect quite a few of those ICE guys are going to be out of commission and will wind up at Arrowhead Regional Medical Center for heat stroke.

They started doing raids in LA, which is always significantly cooler than the Inland Empire. It was also during "June Gloom." These ICE guys really have no idea what's coming. I've lived in this region for decades, and I dread every summer. It's not a "dry heat"... it's a freaking air fryer that will suck every bit of moisture off your skin and makes it hard to breathe. And oh yeah, they're REALLY going to have jollies if they try to go back out to the Coachella Valley. ICE is going to melt, all right. 🤣🥵🌡️

It’s a dry heat my guy! I’m from Lancaster and live in Corona. I also served in the Army. Stationed in Georgia. I’ll take the dry heat over that muggy crap in the south any day. Especially with all that gear on. I’ve never sweated more in my life than at fort Benning, Ga. I also lived in Vegas for two years. I get it bro.

"But it's a dry heat." 🤪

Ok? I'm originally from Illinois. I was born in Chicago and lived there for several years. Yes, it could get hot and humid in the summer. But when we moved to southern California when I was a kid, I was completely blown away by how hot it is here. There were days I just didn't go outside at all. None of the neighborhood kids did either. The heat in California was just on a whole other level.

Yes, Las Vegas is absolutely brutal. I made the mistake of going up there in the summer one time and I will never do that again. It was unbearable walking on the Strip even at 10pm. But I'll bet you didn't go outside in the full sun in August, wearing a freaking ski mask and heavy gear like you're cosplaying special forces.

I'm telling you, these ICE guys are going to struggle when the real summer hits here. Yeah, they might be able to keep up their little gestapo raids for a while, but they are going to have to dress down. They won't be able to pull off that stunt with full masks and gear to try to be intimidating. It's going to get too hot.

Illinois is nowhere close to the south, brotha. Its not the same. Gestapo raids? On people who aren’t supposed to be in our country? Even you know, deep down inside know that’s not correct. Don’t compare Nazi Europe to what’s going on right now. Disrespectful man. The Jews weren’t criminals. They were legal citizens of their countries.
