This is the most heartbreaking stories I’ve heard in a long time. ICE detained 2-year-old Orlin Hernandez Reyes’ mother. She begged to be reunited with him before deportation. ICE refused. What happened next is horrific. No matter how you feel about immigration, normal people don’t like cruelty.

Local HERO in Kansas gets arrested for slashing ICE agent's tires. In an effort to deescalate the surrounding crowd, the cop arresting him yelled that the Kansas man is being arrested for slashing tires. The crowd cheered in response to that and basically gave the man a standing ovation.

If the LAPD is allowed to defy court orders, they are above the law. If you or I defied a court order, we'd be in deep shit, because we are subject to the law. I do not understand why people constantly say "In America, no one is above the law." Bullshit. Lot's of people are above the law.
