  • DOJ goes after US citizen for developing anti-ICE app

    Again, 65% of people kidnapped by ICE have zero convictions. 93% have zero violent convictions. Trump has ordered an unrealistic goal of 3,000 arrests per day.
    We got the quiet part out loud last week when a member of Trump's inner circle insinuated that the real goal is to eliminate the Latino population of the USA.

    ... whereas ICE raids are about addressing ALREADY COMMITTED crime/violations. You can't deter an already committed crime. 

    This is likely not going to go well for the maker of the app. 
    What crime? Sincere question.

    According to well-established precedent this *should* go *very* well for the maker of the app.

    Great. Obstruction of justice is a criminal offense. Doesn't matter if it's done via an app or not. 
    Except developing or distributing this app does not meet the definition of "obstruction of justice". It explicitly *does* fall under the definition of "protected speech".

    And let's call out the specious idea that Ice Block is no different than a radar detector or warning drivers of a speed trap. A speed zone warning is an alert to POTENTIAL law breakers. Ice Block interferes with police efforts to apprehend individuals who have ALREADY BROKEN AT LEAST ONE LAW. Do you see the difference? Well do you?
    What law do you allege has been broken by all potential users of this app? That’s a serious question. I genuinely want you to answer.

    “For additional cost savings, B&H will not collect sales tax on orders shipped outside New York ....”

    This is not a cost savings. Buyers still owe the tax, it’s just not collected by the merchant.
