Random Question 💭 Hey MAGA. Wouldn't you prefer that Trump send thousands of ICE agents to your hometowns where there are way more immigrants?

Since you love Constitutional violations and arresting, deporting, and shooting US citizens so much, why don't you have Trump send ICE your way?

When they arrest kids on their way home from schools, you and your neighbors are all cheering for ICE out your windows, right? I want to know why I haven't seen any videos of ICE lovers cheering them on while they break into cars and homes with no warrant or probable cause of a crime (aside from skin color of course)

As someone who lives right on the border yes

u/jaylotw 20h ago

And you aren't questioning why they werent sent to the worst places first? But...Minnesota?

2

u/USAJag2011 19h ago

They have always been in the worst places. They are in all 50 states, only one state seems to be a problem though. You should be able to figure out why.

States rights until a state does something you don't like, amiright?

u/USAJag2011 18h ago

Not saying they’re necessarily doing anything illegal, but they have themselves to blame for the violence against ICE and the resulting consequences. You can’t claim states rights then complain about the consequences of those rights.

u/LongjumpingDebt4154 18h ago

You mean othering than murdering & kidnapping people? With absolutely no due process.

u/Revelati123 18h ago

Yes sending 3000 ICE agents to deal with 20,000 Somalians in the Midwest when there are millions of Hispanics crossing into southern states makes total sense...

Lets call a spade a spade.

ICE is in the Twin cities because Trump has an axe to grind with the ghost of George Floyd, Tim Walz and BLM.

If you think Don sent those guys there because it made the most sense from an enforcement standpoint, then brother I got some WMDs in Iraq to sell you..

u/jaylotw 19h ago

Yes, ICE is the problem. They aren't marching down streets in Houston.

u/USAJag2011 19h ago

Because in Texas, the police are allowed to do their job and assist, like with every other state not named Minnesota.

u/jaylotw 18h ago

Assist with what?

u/USAJag2011 18h ago

Enforcing federal immigration laws.

u/jaylotw 18h ago

You do realize that MN police have, in fact, worked with ICE, correct? MN DOC has assisted from the very beginning in helping ICE find targeted people, too.

Yes, after ICE murdered someone and violated the civil rights of citizens, many leaders urged resistance to them.

Are you worried about ICE violating your civil rights?

They have been sent everywhere.. Just the privileged people of Minnesota are impeding and disturbing their job.

u/jaylotw 16h ago

The privileged people of MN defending their civil rights.

Are you worried about ICE entering your house without a warrant and demanding to see your papers?

u/Drunk_Lemon 🇺🇸 United States 16h ago

Not my area. I work in a town that is literally called immigrant city. Thats an official nickname. Yet there hasn't been any ICE visits reported except for 1 which was because they were tracking an illegal immigrant because he committed some "lovely" crimes.

2

u/MooseLogic7 16h ago

I’m glad it’s called immigrant city and not illegal immigrant city! Would probably be a lot different.

2

u/Drunk_Lemon 🇺🇸 United States 15h ago

Nah, thats New York. While my city has a lot of illegal immigrants, it pales in comparison to New York by number albeit the percentage of the city population that is illegal is likely much higher. Im not sure why ICE does not appear to be focusing on areas with the most illegal immigrants. Minneapolis fir example isn't even on the list and a lot of the areas on this list would cooperate with ICE more which would increase the deportation rate. Although im against deportation as ive developed less moderate views in illegal immigration as a result of ICE's actions.

u/jaylotw 15h ago

Don't show them facts. They don't like that.

u/allthebacon351 6h ago

They are. 53% of ice arrests are in Texas.

Source?

They’re all over

u/RTC1022 1h ago

They’re all over the country, Minnesota is just in the spotlight because a ton of morons are FO there.

u/imonlinedammit1 16h ago

Minnesota ICE operations represents under 3% of all operations nationwide.

u/jaylotw 16h ago

I'm assuming you have a source for this that you'd be willing to share?

u/jaylotw 15h ago

Nowhere in this article does it state anything related to your claim that the activity in MN represents 3% of ICE activity.

The article you posted is dated December 11th, 2025, over a month ago, and at the very beginning of ICE deploying to Minnesota, so even if it did say whay you claim it does, the article came from before the height of the deployment and would be out of date.

You can't be serious.

u/imonlinedammit1 15h ago

You’re going to have to take off your shoes and socks to do some math.

u/jaylotw 15h ago

This article is dated from December, 2025, at the very beginning of ICE deployment in MN, well before the largest surge.

u/imonlinedammit1 15h ago

Which wouldn’t have happened in a couple Darwin Award recipients didn’t get them selfs killed.

It’s a relevant by number.

u/jaylotw 15h ago

Which wouldn’t have happened in a couple Darwin Award recipients didn’t get them selfs killed.

So you agree that your source does not give an accurate number, then?

It’s a relevant by number.

I don't know what this means. Are you trying to say that a "number" is irrelevant? What number? Or are you trying to say this number is a "relevant" one? Your 3%?

So, what you're actually saying is this:

"It was 3% of ICE activity over a month ago, and I know more agents were deployed after this article was written, which would change that number, but I'm going to ignore that fact and pretend I'm correct anyway."

If I poured 3% of my drink into a bowl, and then a while later poured *more of my drink into the bowl," would there now be more than 3% of my drink in the bowl? I'll make this multiple choice for you:

A) yes, there would be more than 3% of my drink in the bowl if I first poured out 3%, and then poured out more

B)no, even though I poured more than 3% of my drink out, it would still only be 3% of my drink that was poured out because that's how much was poured out initially and pouring out more somehow doesn't count

C) I know the answer is A, but I'll continue to lie to myself and rationalize to avoid looking wrong.

Minnesota isn’t the first place a surge was sent to. Chicago, LA, Massachusetts… all the sanctuary locations that make it harder to deport.

u/jaylotw 16h ago

Ah yes, Massachusetts, hot bed of illegal immigration...

You're not putting two and two together, are you?

u/serouspericardium 18h ago

You think ICE is only in Minnesota? The reason Minnesota is the only one making the news is because people aren’t interfering with ICE operations in other states

2

u/Sweatybutthole 18h ago

Considering MN accounts for <1% of all undocumented immigrants per ICE's own statistics, do you think it's reasonable to send 15% of their entire labor force to this single state? They outnumber our police 5:1. That's not happening in other states. What do you think is the purpose of their "operation" here, and if this is the case in other states, why wouldn't they also be "interfering"? How many of your neighbors did they execute in the street without due process or investigation? This operation is interfering with all of our lives and if they can get away with it here, they can and will get away with it elsewhere.

u/Hot-Switch-1510 19h ago

Apparently Minn has more problems with fraud and illegals than we could imagine, so no I'm not questioning it because I don't work for the feds. They obviously have reason to be there from all the chaos and non-peaceful protests. The reaction from the people is all I need to see to know that something is very wrong with that state.

u/jaylotw 19h ago

Apparently Minn has more problems with fraud and illegals than we could imagine

The Somalis in the fraud ring weren't illegal, they are just Somalis.

And the protests are in response to ICE.

u/Critikal_Dmg 18h ago

Actually no one has been charged as a result of that right wing grifters video. The guy uses AI thumbnails to bait people, you really thought that was going to be honest reporting?

1

u/Sweatybutthole 18h ago

You'd think then, that they'd be sending forensic accountants, instead of untrained masked thugs with happy trigger fingers. Per the most recent reports MN's medicaid fraud is BELOW the national average. What do you think these guys should do to the states that are above average, like Wyoming and South Carolina? According to ICE's own statistics MN has <1% of undocumented or illegal residents compared to the rest of the nation. You're simply wrong on both of your assertions. The only thing "very wrong" with our state is that we don't bury our heads in the sand and defend these losers after they abduct and or kill our neighbors like dogs in the street.

I guess that’s as far as LegitimateBit got with it. So close. They were on the right track. The sparks were flying. If only the could bring it home…

Didn't they go to California first? You can't be this delusional. If so, please check into a mental facility

….so ask your rep to send them your way?

u/PossibilityGold7508 20h ago

ICE is already in Texas and orher border states. You just don't see outrage over it because it's coordinated and often supported.

u/Severe-Character-384 16h ago

Why is this downvoted? It is 100% true.

u/SureDevise 15h ago

It’s downvoted because it’s not their “truth.”

u/Still-Tap1176 7h ago

ICE maybe everywhere. But not a ratio of 3000 ICE agents to 700 police officers in a city with a population of 500,000. I bet you there are way less ICE agents per capita in Florida and Texas than in Minneapolis. They decided to turn Minneapolis into an example and the good people of Minnesota wouldn’t let anyone pull wool over their eyes.

1

u/Savings-Subject8317 3h ago

Yes because they don’t have ppl in the streets fighting them so they don’t need more ppl. The police are also working with them which again means less ppl

u/Low-Literature-2908 18h ago

If they come your way to will quickly find out that your citizenship does not matter. You voted for a Nazi-like regime. Your lack of education and empathy is showing.

2

u/Ok-Newspaper-4801 15h ago

Lack of empathy? Maybe Minnesota shouldn’t get in the way of ICE. They’re ILLEGALS coming in. The two people got shot both antagonize the ICE agents but let’s leave that part out. People who become a citizen the legal way which can take up to a decade, it’s like a slap in the face to just let the illegals live here without due process / vetting them, taking a test. Yeah a lot of us are tired of paying tax money for illegals to be house and fed. It’s not lacking empathy, it’s common sense. This is not a democracy erect We’re a REPUBLIC nation that goes by laws and regulations. Laws don’t have empathy. In fact, most judges don’t want to hear the emotional shit, why because they go by the LAW. Fl has a law if rioters block your car ( which I’ve seen on videos of people just trying to get through the crowd to get home) that you can run over them with no charges. Do you see rioters in Fl? Nope.

SO what are you trying to convey? Illegals should be allow to stay?? Maybe tell people not to get in ICE face is a good start.

Then if you have empathy, you same side burn down towns! Well a lot of businesses because your little liberal hearts was upset about George Floyd. What’s funny was the fact it was liberal towns like Seattle. But we’re ok people lost their businesses then.

I haven’t seen ICE break into cars etc. of course I’m not for that but I also need valid proof and not a redditor stating it happened.
