Taking down an American flag, and replacing it with a Mexican flag at a detention center is bad enough, but this behavior is downright disgusting!
”Police in Washington state say an armed man was shot and killed early Saturday after trying to attack a local Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention center. The Seattle Times reported that the unidentified man appeared outside of the Northwest Detention Center in Tacoma with a rifle and threw incendiary devices at both the facility and nearby propane tanks. Officers responded to the incident around 4 a.m. and called out to the man before shots were fired. It was not clear how many shots were fired or whether the man fired at police.
Police spokesman Loretta Cool said the officers weren't wearing body cameras, but the area is covered by surveillance cameras from the detention center. The four officers involved were placed on administrative leave in accordance with the department's policy. The shooting took place hours after a rally in front of the detention center to protest planned mass deportation raids around the country. The Tacoma facility, which is run by the Department of Homeland Security, holds migrants pending deportation proceedings. The detention center has also held immigration-seeking parents separated from their children under President Donald Trump's "zero tolerance" policy, an effort meant to deter illegal immigration.
GEO Group, which runs the 1,575-bed Northwest Detention Center, in an email to The Associated Press said baseless accusations about how detainees are treated at its facilities "have led to misplaced aggression and a dangerous environment for our employees, whose safety is our top priority. Violence of any kind against our employees and property will not be tolerated. We are thankful for the quick and brave action by the Tacoma Police Department, which prevented innocent lives from being endangered." GEO Group said the detention center in Tacoma has modern amenities with air conditioning, recreational activities, a bed for every individual and medical care available at all hours. Last year, a federal judge ruled that Washington state could pursue its lawsuit seeking to force GEO Group to pay minimum wage for work done by detainees at the detention center. The planned raids come me at a time of intense scrutiny surrounding ICE and the treatment of migrants at detention centers. The administration's child separation policy was the subject of a contentious Congressional hearing Friday, during which former ICE director Tom Homan vehemently defended law enforcement amid criticism from Democratic politicians. "As a 34-year veteran of law enforcement, it is shocking, shocking to see constant attacks against those that leave the safety and security of their homes every day, put on a Kevlar vest and put a gun on their hip and risk their own safety to defend this nation," he said, at times appearing to get choked up as he defended his former colleagues.”

I'm afraid it's only going to get worse. A bunch of spoilt brats demanding their way.
When they finally meet resistance from the citizenry, it will get real.
Arch... I used to hate the idea of brother against brother, hoping that dialogue would resolve some of this tension. But it’s blatantly obvious to me now this faction are not our brothers, they are aggressive seditionists that need to be smacked down, and hard. They don’t want dialogue, if “you” don’t agree with them they’ll tell you to STFU and if you don’t, violence ensues. It’s past time for it “to get real”. (It pains me to be forced into this mindset)

It’s what will happen. When you have an entire party (Democrats) who don’t believe in the Law of the Land and choose illegals over citizens there will be trouble.

I have a feeling you’re right, Jim. But like the dog chasing the car, they’re not going to know what to do when they catch the trouble.
Sadly, far too many have forgotten what it is to be American...
This new 'progressive' world they hope to build leaves little room for the traditions and values of our forefathers...
You're right CD. I grew up with my Granny's voice in my ear saying "Just do what's right." Some of my fondest memories are of me sitting on the ice cream freezer at family gatherings while my grandad turned the crank, and listening to the older ones talk.
