So if I dine at a Mexican Restaurant could I be detained

One of the local Mexican Diners that I frequent has an illustration if a Mexican flag prominently displayed on their sign.

There is no limit to the stupidity and danger the we are headed in my opinionand we are on the precipice of making ICE much larger.



I heard ICE is summarily machine gunning people down for saying "Gracias."
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

Why not?

Only when they make terminal stupidity against the law.... and by the way they should.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

My apology for injecting actual facts, but the Mexican flag and fiesta-style decorations have beeen common decor in Mexican restaurants for decades. The premise of the fear-mongering hypothetical is :thatsright: :thatsright: :thatsright: -grade stupid.

Unfortunately any of us can be arrested and detained with no due process. All they have to do is claim we are illegal. We have no right to due process.


Remember when the goons were snatching people off of beaches and off of their front porches and off their bicycles ... because they weren't wearing a mask?  I do.

Remember when they closed all the gyms and stores and churches because they were dangerous and you couldn't even buy seeds to plant a garden because it was too dangerous to go outside by yourself ... unless you were going to a drag queen story hour, bar, or large box store?  I do.

Remember when they were taking these bad people and locking them up in jails so they could be around other people when all they wanted to do was sit on a beach by themselves?  I do.

DUmmies, do you remember?  I do.

We have a nice Mexican restaurant here in town and they have been here for many years. They have become beloved here in town because of the great food and service they provide, and they support our little town as best as they can. I doubt that anyone is going to raid that place of any reason without there being a damn good reason
