Bullshit. I've seen the footage.

Jeez, I thought better of the group here, you near the top of that heap, than to expect to see such a profoundly ignorant statement.

You've seen THE footage? All the footage from all the locations within a city of 3.8 million people in which you also currently live and are personally familiar with?

Or, just enough footage likely curated to guide viewers in planned directions, to support your preconceived notions, then give tacit approval for jackbooted thugs to run amok performing "law enforcement" under concealed identities in a city far away from you?

primarily being conducted by criminal invaders who are breaking the law just by being here.

If that WAS true, I'd be for it also. But, these Matrix-looking black clad sunglass wearing "agents" are doing shit like going into courtrooms where people are willfully making appearances to fulfill their obligations along the legitimate path to citizenship, and rounding them up like sitting ducks then getting paid a generous bounty per head. Are you entirely clear on which parties are acting within the law, and which ones very conspicuously outside of it?

Your state and your city have been complicit in this.

That's right... OUR state, OUR city! How about you run YOUR State and City to 1800s standards of segregation and economic exploitation if that is your ideal, and keep your jack booted anonymous thugs the fuck out of ours???

Treating Mexicans like "The Other" doesn't hit the same for LA residents as it does to you. Your attitude as expressed in this thread may have served you well as a soldier occupying other peoples' country. But people like myself who have lived 6 decades in Los Angeles have long since made peace with the reality of having first generation Mexicans living in close proximity. It's not an apartheid state or a Mad Max dystopia like you seem to portray it- not at all!

People like myself have grown up with Mexicans, lived among Mexicans, worked alongside Mexicans, Hired Mexicans, Dated and had sex with Mexicans, lived through crisis events that we worked through with Mexicans. Also across decades, we've done the same with "fellow" white people and built a full library of examples based on firsthand experience of the merits of them alongside other races in addition to Mexicans.

All this to say, you're not lecturing some college age kid about "isms" they just learned about as classroom abstractions, but someone who has lived a life across decades that serves to cast certain things people from elsewhere say about different races of humans in a seriously poor and small-minded light.

@MentORPHEUS

It's a REALLY BAD precedent to send troops into cities to deal with civilian law enforcement matters.

1) They're violent invaders who have attacked federal offices and officers.

2) your local law enforcement has been derelict in its duty (per the instructions of local "leadership")

Frankly I'm disappointed to see you defending this so.

Flounce harder. You're getting 713ed.

The rhetoric I hear people not from Los Angeles using about immigrants and the ICE raids, IS the language of small minded racist fucks.

Bullshit. They came illegally and refuse to leave, and are trying to take over.

Fuck them.

I'd say the same thing if the Canadians were trying this with New York or Maine.

I see dismissing this as "Isms" a cowardly cop out.

Not nearly as cowardly or as much of a cop-out as baselessly accusing someone of said "isms".
