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.

When the system is working the locals cops identify the specific criminal alien for ICE to come and pick up. This puts the local in control of who is picked up. It is not like ICE roams the halls of the jail looking for brown people as you imply.

They don't "roam the halls," but per ICE the request for detainer originates from them. Note the local official. The local doesn't have any choice in who ICE decides to issue a detainer for....at least according to what ICE says:

ice.gov - Immigration detainers
