In this thread, you seem to be equating the infrequent overstepping of legal boundaries with an act that is fundamentally illegal, without exception.

- notacoward 8y agoNo, I'm saying that the "fundamentally illegal" act is irrelevant. The reason people even care about AWS helping ICE is entirely about their abusive behavior, not the proper discharge of their legitimate legal duties. Just like #BlackLivesMatter isn't about police being professional as they apprehend actual criminals and do other things to keep us all safe. Abuse is abuse, no matter what surrounds it, and there should be zero tolerance for it.
- biglenny 8y agoI think you'll find that most people who dislike ICE do so because they are opposed to the acts they are designed to carry out (i.e., deportations). In this very thread, you have declared opposition to deportations. And regarding AWS, the technology will allow ICE to carry out it's job more effectively (i.e., more deportations). This is clearly upsetting for some.
