They meant blue as in "back the blue", not leftist.

No blue on blue means police on police

That's what I mean; it's one police group against another. ICE is a police org, even if it's a federal one, and even more fascist than your usual police org.

Feds are not viewed as police by police officers or deputies. And that is maybe the piece that saves us. Discussing this this morning, “this is my city not yours”. I believe that it will come down to Feds getting arrested. USC 1983/85 failing to take action to stop a violation.

I don't care what cops think, feds are still cops. Maybe local cops don't think so, maybe it makes them get mad, that's all great, but logistically feds are just cops with wider coverage.

Actually their preview is much narrower than state county and municipalities. That is why this is a deal currently. They need to start getting hooked up and their anonymity stripped and the only way that is going to happen is when cops start booking them. It will come down to this!

Any plan that relies on "Cops being willing to take on the Fed" is a plan that I have zero confidence in.

So how do you think it will resolve. You have Governor’s that are standing up and they control fairly large police agencies. That will s where it will start I think.

The question is, to what extent do those governors actually control those large police agencies? No one knows, and we will only find out if there is a confrontation

State police are by nature obedient. But we will see

You and I may be living in different worlds. Cops are, by definition, not obedient.
