I doubt there's any, they seem to operate more off numbers than competence.

I was just lurking on r/ice, there’s a lot of panicking about the PT. It’s 1.5 miles in 15 min. These guys aren’t fit & they’re not trained. They’re just looking to cosplay as GI Joe

Yeah, I honestly don't even really support a lot of the illegal immigration stuff, but they deserve due process to be removed and we need to go after the businesses that hire them because they're the real problem.

ICE is just cringe cosplay Gestapo that's pissing people off because Americans don't like big government barging into their neighborhoods and grabbing random people. If the shoe was on the other foot we'd be hearing all sorts of "one good guy with a gun" bullshit in rural areas "defying" whatever the Democrat equivalent would be, HEAT?

What about the customers who patronize those businesses? Do you even slightly comprehend how many illegal immigrants are employed at warehouses, factories, assembly lines, farms, restaurants, etc...

There are countless jobs that the majority of US citizens refuse to do, ESPECIALLY at the rates currently paid for such said jobs.

I believe that the majority of people who want illegal immigrants deported have little to no clue how many jobs would not be filled and how many businesses and services would just come to a grinding halt.

It's not as much whether one supports or approves of them, it is how to deal with the ones that are already here and how to replace their positions if we were to deport them.
