CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

That's the message that ICE is trying to send. If you suspect that an employee of a local restaurant is illegal, an upscale restaurant in an upscale neighborhood, and for some reason you want to arrest him at one of the restaurant's busiest times, how to you go about it? Ask a cop. I doubt very much that he would advise having two dozen men in combat gear storm the place as the safest and most efficient method. Don't forget your flash-bangs, though, that's too good a piece of theater to waste.

Ah, seems odd them that instead of saying the Democrats had started a "war of words" you said they "have gone to war" since those are two very different idioms. That said your hyperbole is noted.

They may have already. They picked up two people who couldn't document their citizenship on the spot and nobody knows where they are or if they'll ever be seen again. That's "shock and awe' for sure.

In Germany? Yes, but not to the extent of the USA. For most occassions, 5 % is already an acceptable tip.Is tipping encouraged in your neck of the woods?

Well, that's too bad. ICE could have sent two guys to quietly arrest whoever it was they were looking for, but instead they put on a show for the benefit of people like you and the best you can do is find it "amusing?"
Exactly. That would have been the professinonal and safe way to handle it.
The restaurant’s manager, Renato Ametrano, described what happened, saying the ICE officers showed “up with no explanation.” He said there were about 20-25 officers who “surrounded the building and then came inside” pushing him against the wall and handcuffing him.
ICE is not authorized to enter private areas of the restaurant without a warrant. Did they have one?

Just a little update on this sidebar. Sheriffs don't like it.
Noem’s Sanctuary City List Backfires —DHS Forced to Remove It After Law Enforcement Revolt
“The list violated the core principles of trust, cooperation, and partnership with fellow law enforcement,” the National Sheriffs’ Association said. “This decision by DHS could create a vacuum of trust that may take years to overcome.”“DHS has done a terrible disservice to President Trump and the Sheriffs of this country,” said Sheriff Kieran Donahue of Canyon County, Idaho, president of the association. “The President’s goals to reduce crime, secure the Borders, and make America safer have taken a step backward. The sheriffs of this country feel betrayed.”
Noem, however, doubled down, blaming the cities. “Some of the cities have pushed back,” she said. “They think because they don’t have one law or another on the books that they don’t qualify, but they do qualify. They are giving sanctuary to criminals.”
[But now that statement is inoperable, as the list has been sent to the memory hole.]

With the mob scene they had to deal with 20 of them weren't enough. They had to call in for reinforcements. And I think they probably knew what they were in for which is why they started out with such a force to begin with. I doubt this was a situation where they decided to all get together and randomly pick a totally innocent establishment to raid just for kicks. They are civil servants putting their lives at risk to serve their country.

Sounds like they don't like being called out for harboring criminals. No surprise there.

There were numerous reports of illegals being employed by well known companies like Disney and Trump was included. I recall a similar report involving a meat plant during the lockdown. I don’t remember if it was Tyson on Smithfield. But they showed them in the plant working overnight and mentioned their wages. This isn’t a new phenomenon and businesses have gotten away with it for years as have private employers. A lot of housekeepers and nannies are the same which came out during the Nannygate scandal.

....sure, let's hand out bravery medals to the "civil servants putting their lives at risk" while attacking the integrity local law enforcement....because they happen to be in California.
Look, the "mob scene" you describe would have never developed had ICE carried out the operation in a professional manner, which includes coordinating with local law enforcement.
