Of course we do, we’re all reasonable people here.

    I’m all for sanctioning authoritarian oligarchies, but unfortunately for you, that is the Trump administration.

    US cabinet average wealth by far the highest in US history? Oligopoly

    Armed masked men are abducting US citizens into unmarked vans? Authoritarian

    NYC has neither of those things. Nice try though?

    Life was better when people like you were just known as village idiots and we could chuck produce at you whenever you spoke so you knew your opinions were comically stupid

      Are you nuts? I’m not going to spend my day explaining the history of the NYPD to you because you missed an obvious joke. There are absolutely ICE raids taking place in NYC. Local police has to cooperate with higher level law enforfement. America has been fascist for generations since well before it killed and poisoned all the civilians in Vietnam, passed the Patriot Act, and tortured kids at black sites in Chicago during the Obama years. Get real

        In order: 1.No 2. To be a joke it would have to be funny 3. yes because federal agents can operate locally anywhere, which is obvious to anyone but the village idiot 4. As you said, they “have to” cooperate, which kind of goes against your point of them being willing 5. America absolutely has been facist for generations, but more so in republican administrations (gauntenmo and patriot act under bush, Nixon shooting protestors, and now) 6. black sites were Chicago PD operated, Obama had nothing to do with them. 7. Put your dunce cap back on and go sit in the corner
