I’ve driven past a certain St. Paul grade school a few times this week, on the way to a job site. Each time, I see adults standing on the sidewalk wearing yellow vests, no kids around, apparently watching for ICE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just what the hell do they think they’re doing? First off there is zero, absolutely zero, credible evidence that immigration efforts are directed at snatching kids from schools. There is no interest in the government to waste time on that. None. So do these jackasses still think that’s what they’re protecting? Or do they stand there because school administrators, janitors, indoctrinators (there are no teachers), and other adults are invaders?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And what is their plan? Let’s assume they think they’re standing guard against ICE showing up to snatch up invaders of any type. What do these jerks think they will do about it? Do they intend to alert the invaders and assist them to flee to avoid arrest? Are they intending to aid and abet known criminals? Are they intending to engage in knowing obstruction of federal immigration enforcement?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I suspect the answer is yes to each of those and in each case it’s a crime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They’ve been prosecuting people for silently praying outside baby murder factories for years now. Isn’t it time to start prosecuting people who are intentionally obstructing federal law enforcement? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
