“And there you have it. Under the Trump Administration, ICE and Border Patrol are being empowered to stop and question you based solely on how you look."
“…No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”
Not the best support of your valid viewpoint on the matter.
shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens
Not citizens. Privileges or immunities are Miranda rights and constitutional rights afforded to all people regardless of residency or citizenship status. So that would be no due process. Detaining a lawful citizen or resident to determine their lawful status does not infringe upon their rights.
without due process of law
The stop is the initiation of the due process, even if it is based upon questionable pretext. If the individual is already under a deportation order that they may or may not have gone unresolved, then the stop would determine that to be true or not and then detention and deportation follows in accordance with a ruling by a judge.
deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws
Which means due process is granted and no unnecessary use or force or cruel and unusual treatment. Same as if you were guilty of any other crime.
The sort of criteria that ICE are using are vague and subjective based on “training”. Yes, it could be as simple as check the brown people, which wouldn’t hold up in court. If someone runs, that is enough legally upheld criteria to retain for the purposes of their investigation because someone who knows ICE isn’t looking for them won’t run from ICE. We know they are relying on someone being brown and using that as the primary criteria, which needs to be addressed in court ASAP like Stop and Frisk.
Part of the issue is there are people who have ignored deportation orders going back years and ICE hasn’t had all that much administrative motivation to pursue those cases. So what they have is a backlog of 1.4 million people who are under deportation orders that they are trying to enforce those orders after so many years of waiting to find them due to criminal activity and sanctuary cities/states have cut off that pipeline feeding ICE. With the extra motivation to report, ICE has the green light to grab anybody in the vicinity and process them instead of just selective actions against an individual of note they have been actively looking for.
The media and administation isn’t doing a great job of adequately informing the US what is going on aside from the administration saying they are going after “criminals” and the media saying nothing except ICE is doing raids. They need a website that lists names and status with where they are at in immigration court, which would help with transparency. They would probably have a lot of “administrative errors” that would mean the website was inaccurate, but it would be better than we have now.
14th Amendment, prick.
