I understand, and I don't blame the Fire Department for sending the bulletin. Probably the best thing they could do in the situation.
What is fucking ridiculous, is:
•The fact that this administration has created a task force (in the name of safety, of course) that is clearly putting individuals at risk.
•That they have thrown together a bizarre hodgepodge of what appears to be every federal agency they could possibly think of when they were writing the memo for the task force, and then unleashed them alongside armed agents to live out their cop fantasies in an American city like they're in some fucked up IRL Westworld scenario.
•That this is clearly the first step in escalating and expanding what ICE has been doing this entire time to include every American that doesn't fall in line.
•That they have chosen one of the poorest areas of the country (where I was born, and where the federal government had to be deployed to enforce civil rights just one generation before me), to use as a testing ground for their fucked up authoritarian experiment bulldozing civil rights, and they chose it because they thought nobody would notice or care enough if they did notice.
