Go with “Policia”! That will drive them crazy.
Stop calling ILLEGALS “undocumented.”
Tell LAPD to quit calling themselves Law Enforcement then ......
I pretty sure this BS is not from the LAPD street cops . More likely polidiots and the LAPD administrative nut huggers that fly a desk .
Stop calling 0bama a Constitutional law professor.
Great comeback.
GO POLICE!!!
Just wait until the secret ones get unleashed on the communist bastards.
LOL
ICE are definitely NOT police nor are they peace officers.
No. I bet this move is more about BS politics and that there are Hispanic police officers and politicians involved. Hopefully Trump cut L.A.P.D. Sanctuary City's slush fund for the protection of the La Razans and Reconquistans that the local Hispanic politicians receive heavy donations from.
Los Angeles Fake Police STOOD DOWN and cowardly ran during the Rodney King riots.
Truth hurts. They should instead be called LA Authority.
Somehow I don’t think they will have the same complaint when armed EPA agents knock on your door....when Obama was president...
“Open up I’m from the EPA” just doesn’t have the same ring as police...
Ice are not police in the same way immigration law isn’t law.
Thank you for playing.
You may pick up your booby prize on your way off the thread.
Next contestant.
Do you consider BATF,(the heroes of Waco), to be police? I would rather consider them unemployed.
“ICE are definitely NOT police nor are they peace officers.”
They are law enforcement so they are police. I guess English is your second language.
Police:
The civil force of a national or local government, responsible for the prevention and detection of crime and the maintenance of public order.
It’s a subtle but important distinction which has been forgotten in the last 15 years. Generally, Peace Officers ( aka Police ) are local constabulary drawn from the local population whose primary role is to keep the peace.
Think Andy Griffin
ICE and other federal paramilitary forces are primarily enforcers who are not drawn from local population and whose role has little in common with Peace Officers.
Think Barney Fife
would be useful to understand the difference. It’s a long American tradition, that’s why Sherrifs are elected in this country.
“Think Andy Griffin”
Unfortunately for America, we’ve dumbed ourselves down to using a fictional television show as a basis of our understanding.
fortunately - we have cultural touchstones that all Americans understand.
Andy Griffin or Barney Fife
those distinctions still resonant.
ICE to LA officials. We will stop calling ourselves police if you stop calling yourselves honest.
