• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • 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.

If there are people having trouble understanding why people dislike how iCE is doing their work, I'm hoping folks will be willing to share some examples. I'll do my bit when I can.
I personally do not hate ICE, but I do feel that the thing has been mishandled. The way I see it is if a person is here illegally and that is their only crime leave them be. Now, if they are committing other offenses and/or they are using government resources then sure get them out, but still do so with respect

There are always going to be people with issues in every organization. While there are dirty cops, I don't hate all cops because their job is to keep the streets safe. Same with ICE. The point of ICE is to detain and deport people who are here illegally. I agree with this. Allowing people to come into our country illegally, only invites people who have criminal history, gangs and other people that are trying to destroy our country from within. I have no issues with asylum seekers or people who want a better life for their family, but hopping the boarder is not the way to do this. And if you disagree with this idea, people should be then trying to change the law, rather than barricading ICE agents in with their cars and pointing guns at them. Or doxing them by posting their home address online so people can go attack their family... This is how bad things happen... and how people are pushed to do things they normally wouldn't do because they feel threatened. I'm not saying its correct or right, but cause and effect comes into play.

I'm amazed they've only had one crazy shooter target them.

Their reputation for cruelty, viciousness, arresting first and confirming lack of documentation later, zip tying children and the elderly, etc. Is well documented and well deserved.
A school board member in our town was accosted and detained fishing in the park, and she had to call an immigration lawyer to eventually get released.
They have quotas and can only fill them by grabbing the harmless and hardworking, disrupting families and terrorizing neighborhoods.
I have heard other personal stories--none good.
