For me the point I want to make is that none of us are safe. We need to protect due process for everyone. Yes there are a subset of people that don't care about the gov. deporting non citizens. If they see it's happening to citizens, maybe they will start to care, maybe they will see how wrong it is to violate the rights of immigrants. I dunno. Like how do you reach these people to show them how wrong it all is?

Angie Schmitt, who wrote this article, and mentioned Ithaca, NY has clearly never visited or lived in Ithaca, NY. While Ithaca itself has a vibrant downtown, is pretty walkable, and has a really great food co-op, it is a high cost of living area. Aside from it being a very expensive college town, it's situated on one of the great lakes, so it's also a tourist town, which also drives up the cost of housing/living. As a result, most of the people that actually work in Ithaca end up living several towns over in what is essentially farm communities. No sidewalks, no shoulders, speed limit 55, and an incredibly dangerous place to be a pedestrian. If you want to do anything you have no choice but to drive 15-30 minutes to get to fun things, or to shop. There are many places with the same problem, small vibrant cities with great downtown's and super unaffordable housing that pushes the rest of us out into the stix with no choice but to drive.

He's on the cusp, but I sort of feel like he's got the hallmark cancer trait of obsessing over things/people.

This was a separate incident from the lady detained while walking to her office building.

Every projection is a confession. Gestures vaguely at ice gestapo, deportations of people to countries that aren't their origin, deportations to prisons outside the US, and the constitution allowing slavery as punishment of a crime.

Remember when the Democrats cock blocked AOC from the oversight committee in favor of a 75 year old with esophageal cancer, that ended up dying anyway? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

Rep Paul Tonko is one of the NY reps that voted no to impeach. I work 2 blocks from his office and plan to spend my lunch hour every day demonstrating in front of his Albany office. I already called his office to bitch. I've got printed letters that say, "Congratulations, you're a fascist collaborator." Going to be stuffing those in envelopes with glitter and putting one in the mail every single day. Give me your best for my protest signs.

Are we sure it was an ectopic pregnancy, and not gallstones caused by her diet?
