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.

13 incidents since July, out of how many hundreds of thousands of encounters during that time?

What's the percentage? You guys hate numbers, I know that, you hate statistics.

The other question to you is--do you realize ICE is doing this on their own in these areas because the local police agencies who might have more expertise in these kinds of interactions have been instructed not only to NOT cooperate, but to do everything they can to impede the immigration enforcement efforts? As well as the public?

The Left--YOU--has created the exact kind of circumstances in which incidents of this kind greatly increase in probability. If you tell everyone to "RESIST! DRIVE BABY DRIVE!" including the local citizenry and local law enforcement, are you that clueless as to how that increases the risk of such incidents occurring?

No, you're not clueless at all. The whole object of your game is to CREATE as many "martyrs" as possible for political gain for your side.

Job well done. Congratulations!
