One way to know that most people don't value missing a flight at the last minute at merely the price of the ticket is how they react when a flight is oversold and the airline tries to pay people for their seat at the gate. . The late to the airport discourse is off the rails.

I'd prefer to abolish ICE and make airlines pay for their own security. But given federal budgets, seems less dangerous to have these guys in airports around rich people. At least they're off the streets and away from normal people.

A lot of Schumer supporters here insist that he has his finger on the pulse and knows how to speak effectively to the idiots of America, in a condescending tone to perceived idiots on this site who don't get it. As an idiot, that seems too clever by half. Maybe say what's most important instead idk

Exactly. It's not to show the ICE officer was in danger—the video he took himself shows he obviously isn't—but to show their supporters that the victim deserved to be murdered. And to show their opponents they can and will murder them in cold blood and with impunity.
