Why do you pretend that laws matter when the current government is showing every waking second that they do not? To the extent they've been called back by judges dozens and dozens of times, for breaking the law? Yet they keep breaking new laws?

  Well, they're not all men and they are meting out plenty of violence, civil rights violations and lies in court that are getting cases thrown out left and right. Lying about killing civilians, lying about being assaulted with a sandwich, lying about a college professor trying to move a gas canister away from someone in a wheelchair. ICE should be abolished and they should all be barred from future public service.

      They’re not vigilantes. But ICE is a paramilitary with no accountability.

        In the sense that they’re against the law, yes. But they are organised groups violently disrupting law enforcement because they’ve convinced themselves this is the right thing to do.

        ICE is the organized group engaged in violence.

  Not a single question mark to be seen in your comment, nor the one you replied to. I continued on the topic you brought up, "the law" and its relevance.

    The comment you replied to, but didn't respond to (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47717422 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47717422), refuted your attempt to reduce vigilante group actions as "telling people where the police are" and raised the violent incidents officers have encountered from vigilante groups. You ignored both points and are apparently asking about the government interacting with judges.

      Your comment is flagged (I didn't and don't think it should have been flagged FWIW), so I can't see it any more. In any case you might be confusing me with someone else. I'm not the GP.

        Turn on showdead. Thanks - moderation on HN is now frequently used to mean dislike rather than guideline violations now the moderators are explicitly enabling politics. Is bad but we’ll stay until the site gets replaced. Yes you’re right both accounts start with d and I confused them.
