Summary

Wisconsin resident Bradley Bartell voted for Trump's promise to crack down on "criminal illegal immigrants," but now his Peruvian wife Camila Muñoz has been detained by ICE.

Muñoz, from Peru, overstayed her visa but had applied for legal residency. On their way home from a honeymoon, immigration agents detained her at a Puerto Rico airport.

Despite no criminal record, she remains in a Louisiana detention center. Her case reflects ICE’s broadened enforcement that now includes documented immigrants.

Bartell, once supportive of stricter immigration policies, now questions the impact on families like his own.

Maybe a controversial opinion but I don’t think anyone belongs in an ICE detention centre regardless of who their spouse voted for. I don’t think this is funny.

Haven't you heard? Empathy is a sin and the weakness of Western civilization. It's what a true conservative would want.

[–] Rooty@lemmy.world 8 points 8 hours ago

Empathy and goodwill aren't infinite, like any resource they can be depleted. I really cannot muster enough fucks to give about someone who voted for that turd a second time. Feel sorry for his wife, though.

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 8 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, I agree, it's not funny, it's a fucking nightmare, and I hate that so many people are dumb enough to believe the restrained version of Trump the media sells and not the words coming out of Trump's idiot mouth.

As someone who doesn't live in tge USA, I don't feel empathy for everyone who voted for Trump or didn't vote at all because eQuAl SiDeS bAd. Project 2025 and deportation plans were known before the elections so you brought this down on yourself. It really sucks for everyone else though, within USA and its (former) allied countries.

Who am I to prevent a fash from locking up a fash?

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 2 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 35 minutes ago) (1 children)

I reckon, "first they came" would be applicable here, however the realist in me says they would continue to go and lock up non fascists

[–] ubergeek 3 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

First they came for the fascists, and I didn't care, because it's what the fascist wanted, and it helps to thin their numbers?

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 1 points 24 minutes ago (1 children)

Yes, very true, unfortunately fighting to ensure no one suffers from fascists, also benefits fascists from being affected.

[–] ubergeek 1 points 15 minutes ago

So, let them thin out their numbers for a bit, we focus first on everyone not a fascist, then we'll help them after their done bloodying their own noses, and become fewer in number, and far easier to deal with.

Or, we could go with the method that works the fastest to deal with fascists, and we'll end up doing anyways in the end, once everyone remembers this is how to deal with fascists: Start shooting them.
