Schumer Demands Immigration and Customs Enforcement Release Information About Raids
U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer ^ | 2/13/2017 | U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer

Posted on 02/13/2017 3:26:01 PM PST by mdittmar

Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer released the following statement demanding that immigration and customs enforcement (ICE) release information about the raids that happened this past week:

"Reports that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) targeted non-violent immigrant families over the past week are deeply disturbing. Undocumented immigrants live in fear, and they are confused and scared.“

“I am troubled by the lack of transparency and potential due process violations surrounding ICE’s most recent enforcement actions. That is why I’m calling on ICE to release information about the location of the raids and details of the people who were arrested.”

“Targeting law-abiding innocent immigrant families whose only wrongdoing was crossing the border to give their children a better life, instead of focusing on removing those who have been convicted of violent crimes, is a waste of limited resources and undermines law enforcement in communities across the country. ICE must come clean.”

“I have always supported smart immigration enforcement that helps to keep our country safe, but raids targeting law-abiding immigrants and treating those with traffic violations the same as murderers and robbers will only achieve the opposite.”‎

Not a single illegal can be said to be “law abiding,” Chuck U.

...maybe but he doesn’t have the leadership skills to take control and get everyone to follow him

Well, you didn't originally say all that. But he certainly can expose Chuck the Schmuck

(and take his breath away)

“Illegally voting should be treason; trying to overthrow the US government.”

I never thought of it that way, but I think you hit the nail on the head

“Only” should have been “First”

Yes, laws must be broken daily in order to stay in the country illegally.

And yes “otherwise law-abiding” is an oxymoron/paradox ie BS.

Thanks for the clarification.

Yep oh yeah, excellent point!

Could also qualify as espionage

Interesting point, many leftists/politicians etc would be guilty also because of their enabling these non citizens to commit treason by voting in our country.

Whole lot of Cantorizing needs to happen.

Flake, Corker, Heller and Hatch are up in 2018.
They all voted for the Gang of Amnesty bill and need to be removed.

If they came here legally they would not be confused a loving in fear. Actions have consequences. They made their choices. They can deal with the consequences.

I demand that Schumer attend a competency hearing.

Unless it's one of us, there's no one competent enough in D.C. to lead the course!

Schumer surely has contact with the Kenyan’s commie moles planted within the U.S. Government. He needs to contact them and just tell them to leak this information.

Screw off, Schumer. Immigration enforcement is an executive matter.

And, as a Freeper, you should be noting these are illegal aliens (criminals) *NOT* undocumented XYZ.

Did you even read my reply? Just before the statement of mine that you used I wrote this...
Rightly so, they're criminals!

How the hell do you miss that and then have the audacity to chastise me?

I think it is important to avoid using euphemisms employed by the Left to ally the anxieties of the gullible.

The two of you don't seem to get it. You use their own words against them.

Think about it...You know the difference between undocumented immigrants and law-abiding immigrants!
His own words indict him.

It apparently went right over your heads.

Beg to differ. You may use their TACTICS against them, but one, IMO, should never allow them to use their own WORDS\definitions.

Sure, let them spout off w/ their diatribe, but we\you\I should be CORRECTING them on *every* point.

Show their ignorance and lack of logic, not enforce the same by trying to be sly.

To do otherwise does nothing for others we\you\I are trying to ‘see the light’. There is no distinction to note they will turn out.
