Not a lot of choices here: A gun in one hand, a bottle of quaaludes in the other. Or maybe I should wait until the Trump Colossus is erected in the rotunda.
There would not be these administrative problems were it not for the fact they were arresting too many people, though. I think clogging the system of adjudication was probably part of the plan. If we can't deport them, let's throw them in detention and let them wait until courts get around to their cases, years from now.
The adjudication system has been clogged for years, victim of chronic underfunding due to congressional shortsightedness. It's been worsened by the 3,000 arrests per day quotas and other barbarisms of the Trump/Miller regime. Thank goodness we've at least expanded our network of private, for-profit detention centers to house and torture them in the meantime.
Wait, aren't those the guys Homan was trying to help when he took that $50,000 bribe in 2024?
Great point on the chiling effect making communities less safe. When people stop reporting crimes cos they're scared, it erodes the basic trust public safety needs. Saw this play out at a legal clinic I volunteered at few years back and its wild how fast word spreads thru a neighborhood once fear sets in.
