They have no other recourse.... when you point out something leftists do that's indefensible they always resort to, "But look what Trump did".
Because there’s almost always an instance where Trump already did the same and was excused for it.

The CA Governor informed Trump on Saturday night that brining in federalized NG soldiers would only make the situation worse. That is common sense.

By Saturday evening, the protest had quieted down. Trump ignored the Governor and ordered in the NG anyway. Trump doesn't care. He wants more unrest and riots.
The NG prevented them from vandalizing federal buildings, which they tried to do. Mission accomplished.

Immigrants with legal status and/or no criminal history are being detained and deported. Is that what you voted for?
I do think that if you have not over stayed your visa and have caused no trouble, then you should not be deported.

I also believe that just because you are here legally because a past administration allowed you here doesn't mean you have a right to be permanently here.

We do have laws in place that allow a revocation of a visa or a revocation of allowance to be here. And I think those laws ought to be followed. I do t think added restrictions to those laws should be applied to LE. If the law does not exactly say that a visa holder must have 90 days notice before revocation then 0 minutes notice is good enough.

I think due process of IMMIGRATION law should be followed. Which is far different than other Criminal statutes.

I dont care if you have no criminal history. Being an illegal immigrant is enough, because that in and if itself makes you a criminal.

Yup, one time. The left, all the time.
But you only needed this one incident to equally indict the entire left. Likewise, we only need the one instance in American history where a president caused a riot in his name and then upon his reelection, pardoned all the people responsible.

Most were guilty of trespassing.
Most here are likely only guilty of unlawful assembly. Very few people out of all the protesters out this weekend were actually engaging police with violence but scenes of a few cars on fire and some graffiti are naturally big attention grabbers.

You know, it would be a good idea to familiarize yourself with actual immigration law. Then you would already know the answer to questions like that.
I was asked for my opinion and I gave it. I was not giving a breakdown of immigration law.

There are those here who dont know anything about immigration law. I'm not one of them. I most certainly have opinions and I believe immigration law needs to be changed.

I also believe it should be followed. By everyone including the administration.

I also understand that mistakes will be made as have been done for many many years. Its only during the Trump administration that the mistakes are a big deal for the left and the media.

I dont feel its necessary to put "many" on the front of "left" in every post I make. We all know its the left that is rioting. We here them shouting and speaking and standing for illegal immigration. We all see its leftist politicians who have aligned themselves with the illegal immigration coalition and against enforcement of immigration laws.

Oh where or where were you on Jan 6 with the Ole "very few people" and "big attention grabbers" comments?

I'll save you the trouble. The majority of people protesting this week did not riot. Enough did. Too many did. And as far as I'm concerned too many on Jan 6 also rioted. Although far less damage was done.

Again this is the lefts problem. LA is a leftist city that allows illegals to be there and be a sanctuary city. They won't let ICE enforce arrests when illegals are in jail. So ICE HAS to arrest people in public where they can find them.

Boulders being dropped off an overpass on cars, rocks thrown at LE cars, cinder blocks thrown at police, looting, yeah just a few minor things

"The left" is like half the country. Half the country is not rioting.

Yeah that’s naturally all going to get way more attention than the thousands of protesters who were there at the same time just holding signs and walking peacefully in solidarity.

What Trump did was to brainwash you into believing that anyone who opposes his agenda is a "leftist" and that "leftist" is a coordinated movement bent on destroying America.
We knew who the left is and have known long before Trump. And have known the lefts agenda to destroy America as well.

And as we saw in LA, they aren't done.
