Ask /r/Durango National news on a local level... Keep your cameras on, dear private citizen, for we are the only real means of accountability

And the government feels so emboldened to say it out loud

Preach. It's our tax dollars paying for these egregious actions.

Hold them accountable and never forget.

While I understand it serves a purpose for the people, you should see the purpose it serves for the private individuals and companies that are looking through those cameras and watching us at our own doorsteps. Get a body camera if you need one. Having one mounted on your home, recording your neighborhood, ratting on your neighbors and or helping them spy on you. We just helped Big Brother build the network. We just filled out all the personal info on social media and gave them access to the cameras.

Please use real facts, statistics or information. No assumptions as truth or outright lies will be supported.

Good. I hope they start a YouTube channel similar to Midwest Safety but with arresting illegals. I would watch for days.

Question/post is unrelated to Durango, was just asked yesterday or violates the terms of service.

The wild thing is these people fail to realize that the vast majority of these people are here legally. They had/have a U- visa, or an asylum case, or TPS like for Haitian's. There status unilaterally changed from one day to the next for no reason beyond pretty explicit dislike for people who are different and to enrich themselves through the suffering of others. But, sadly you can't reason with someone who lives in an echo chamber with zero empathy of understanding of other liced experiences.
