Lol @ trying to run away like a little bitch when the cops got there. You want to hold a bus full of people hostage? You may not get officer beat walker asking you to please climb off the bus. You may get the SWAT team in tactical gear treating you like a terrorist hijacker. Laying in the street to block movement of a bus climbing on a bus from a legal standpoint. They did it wrong because ignorant. They did it at all because ignorant. Lol.

I don't think there are that many Black Africans getting killed by police is such numbers in the USA that it constitutes the label genocide.
Now, black Americans, shooting other black Americans on the other hand:
There were almost 6,000 blacks killed by other blacks in 2015.
By contrast, only 258 blacks were killed by police gunfire that year.

California wants to quit the USA
Do they not realize the south tried to do this a while back, and were stomped on and it is not allowed. They can vote for it all they want, but it has been decided that once you go USA, you never go back. Also everyone there is afraid of guns, so how do they actually plan on fighting against the US for their freedom?

Any discussions on sanctuary cities? It should be very interesting how this administration handles those cities.
Immigration fails under the fed. So can the feds force those cities into following federal law? Legally, I dont know. But they can pull back federal funding because the cities arent following federal law. That is a large chunk of change.

I recall an article that said in the Dem controlled states basically his threat to withhold funding was a pipe dream. Obviously in Rep held states the Governor/Legislature has more direct impact (can't find the article now).

thats because his EOs were violating law and order... something liberals love to do.
the president sets policy, our policy is currently dont let terrorists into the country unless they've been fully vetted.
remember, president Trump took an oath to:
support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic
and unlike liberals, some people take oaths seriously. There is nothing unconstitutional about preventing refugees into our country before being vetted. 1. they arent american citizens and therefore have no constitutional protections and 2. they have to be granted access (and they were just denied)
inb4 "but were are nation of immigrants" "correct, legal immigrants, bro".

**** your local judge with no jurisdiction:
Customs agents ignore judge, enforce Trump?s travel ban: ACLU | New York Post

The ACLU is getting “multiple reports” that federal customs agents are siding with President Trump — and willfully ignoring a Brooklyn federal judge’s demand that travelers from seven Muslim countries not be deported from the nation’s airports.
“The court’s order could not be clearer… they need to comply with the order,” Omar Jadwat, director of the ACLU’s Immigrants Rights project, told The Post late Saturday.

Same way that conservatives spent 8 years saying obama(elected by an actual majority of the popular vote) was illegitimate, born in kenya, calling him a muslim when he is obviously a christian. Now we have a president not elected by popular majority who has no demonstrable evidence that he is a christian( has actually had cameos in soft core **** and might be sex offender). But now we have to come together to support him right. He's our president right. see cognitive dissonance works in both directions.
