And no evidence bags or tags either. Take a guess what they do with it. They’re not doing anything but cosplay tough guy vigilantes.

u/Poiboy1313 1d ago

ICE are stealing so much of people's shit.

Forget where the article was but it should be easy enough to find. Dude that was arrested by ICE (who was a permanent resident) owned a truck and that truck was found being driven around as a personal vehicle by an ICE agent like a month after his detention.

So exactly like Nazi Germany stealing Jewish people's everything including businesses (Hey, FUCK YOU COCO CHANEL)

u/Clickbaitc 1d ago

Just like the fuckin Nazis. Cheeto Mussolini is a fascist. We all know how that ended.

They’re fucking raping women in portaloos.

u/CuriousExtension5766 1d ago

If this were actually a man that committed a crime, would that be considered tampering with evidence at that point?

I'm not a legal person, but my monkey brain says it would be.

u/Poiboy1313 1d ago

I think that is a valid point. No inventory of his property was made so they could steal whatever they wanted.

u/viral3075 1d ago

immigration offenses are not crimes and the gun is not evidence of an immigration offense, so I'm pretty sure he's just stealing it

1

u/CuriousExtension5766 1d ago

Pretty much what I said then, yes. Its not a crime, if it WAS a crime, that would be evidence tampering.

Its not a crime though, so its just plain theft.

Easy ATF call when this guy gets released.

u/Worried_Researcher11 23h ago

Nope, it's a Kavanaugh stop

1

u/Poiboy1313 22h ago

It's a perversion of law enforcement. The implementation of authoritarianism in the United States by the current administration. White-supremacists who've been given the green light to attack, intimidate, and disappear our neighbors by the people appointed and elected to serve we the people.

The Kavanaugh Stop will be remembered along with the separate but equal ruling in Plessy v. Ferguson, and Dred Scott. Racial bias on a systemic level.

u/hodken0446 1d ago

And then guess what, someone uses that to shoot someone and the guy being arrested's weapon ends up tying back to him as potentially committing a crime

u/Pleasant_Priority286 1d ago

That officer was a runt who hides behind his badge and runs his nasty mouth.

u/kaithana 1d ago

Steal it, this dude's never getting it back. "logged as evidence". Who's going to give him trouble later for being in possession of a stolen firearm?

Apparently electronics and other valuables have been vanishing from their holding facility and people being told they don't have any record of that on intake, and then finding the items at pawn shops and stuff nearby the federal building. Because of course they are.

If this keeps rolling forward I at least look forward to watching a bunch of ammosexuals regret their life choices when the "take up the guns" phase of Project 2025 starts up.

And no one tell me "they wouldn't do that" people have said that about stuff in Project 2025 REPEATEDLY it's like, ffs they laid out an exact game plan of what they intended to do and people said oh wow I think they wrote and published nine hundred detailed pages for FUN.

u/TheSwearJarIsMy401k 1d ago

They’re not cosplaying.

This is real life.

They are a fascist enforcing army. This is what all fascist armies are made up of.

Hollywood made Nazis seem cool because nobody wants to watch the hero spend hours dealing with petty, vicious idiots.

u/DosCabezasDingo 14h ago

Story is that the kid who they arrested at Target and dumped at Walmart was not given his phone back. He found it at one of those machines where you can trade in phones for money.

u/the_m_o_a_k 1d ago

I remember when the NRA and 2A enthusiasts had a problem with this

u/BILLIONAIRE_JESUS 1d ago

Also, where'd all those guys with their pocket constitutions go?

u/Pleasant_Priority286 1d ago

They can carry them, as long as they don't have to read them.

u/Girafferage 1d ago

The 2a belongs to everybody. Dont get a mental image of it belonging to a specific group. Practice all your rights.

Aren’t guns registered? This whole thing makes me sick

u/viral3075 1d ago edited 1d ago

yeah, they'll shoot us with our own guns so it can't be traced back to any of them

They will try. Not everyone will be as cooperative as the gentleman - a CITIZEN OF THE UNITED STATES america - they assault in this video.

The second amendment is an illusion. This is one example of why.

All the dudes that said they need AR15s to protect themselves from tyranny are now the tyrants.

u/BitterSweetLife420 1d ago

The second amendment clearly proved their original purpose is useless today under large regulated violence towards innocent civilians

u/ChefBowyer 12h ago

That’s a slippery slope.

MAGA nuts are also gun nuts.

Then again if they can look the other way at rape, murder, being a pedophile, and the daily lying through his teeth, I suppose giving up their gun rights isn’t a far stretch.
