The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The left is normalizing violence and and intimidation tactics against federal law enforcement. I'll remind you that this all began with left wing cities and states deciding to thumb their noses at federal immigration laws with Sanctuary City policies.

No to the first point. The violence is the summary executions by ICE.

The second point is irrelevant. This does not give the federal government authority to suspend the Constitution. If they have problems with the sanctuary laws, challenge them in court.

I will note that those sanctuary laws do not stop the feds from going in and enforcing the law. Our local sheriff got in trouble a few years back because he was doing immigration sweeps, but he wasn't legally allowed to do them. Phoenix already isn't a sanctuary city, but he was making the entire county illegally an anti-sanctuary county. Not that this has any relevance to the main point, which is that the Constitution isn't suspended just because the feds aren't happy with something. That's just not how it works.
