the amount of hate crimes we see in the US will drastically rise, especially among people who don’t “look” or “sound” American, especially indigenous people. ignorance is now intelligence.

Not a bug, but a feature of the Republiqon agenda.

Thats some bullshit. We should all start speaking spanish then.

Hmm not to discredit this, but how does that work, being detained and having to produce a birth certificate ... does one normally daily carry a birth certificate next to ones ID?

And if you're detained without a a birth certificate while on vacation across the country?

Only ID on you? Go to prison?

No ID nor birth certificate and you'll either get shot or deported?

What if you speak something else than Spanish or English amongst yourselves?

How long 'till the Trump administration mandates a form of ID on ones hand, arm, or forehead?

Time to learn Spanish.

La Migra!

Fuck the police

As of 2023, there were over 42 million Spanish speakers in America.

I used to live in South Gate, a neighborhood in L.A. We were the only family in the neighborhood that didn't speak Spanish. Even the local pizza places didn't understand us well enough to order from. We didn't complain, we were the white people who chose to move there and we were fine with it. But we're talking about a neighborhood full of homeowners, not undocumented immigrants. Some of them were in the U.S. for generations.

And then there's Florida:

First settled by the Spanish in the 16th century, 19% of Floridians now speak Spanish, which is the most widely taught second language. In Miami, 67% of residents spoke Spanish as their first language in 2000.

In addition, there are several other major cities in Florida with a sizable percentage of the population able to speak Spanish, most notably Tampa (18%) and Orlando (16.6%).

The U.S. has no official language. Spanish is one of many spoken in the U.S. A large proportion of the U.S. used to be Mexico. Of course we have a ton of people here who speak Spanish.

But, you know, "they all look and sound alike."

Guilty until proven innocent, unfortunately.

We've been getting news reports like this and ones about Native Americans, and they are egregious, but it's worth noting we're not getting enough stories about the undocumented people and how badly they're being treated. They're people too. What's being done to them is legal under this administration, but it's evil.

If you're an American citizen in a red state, that looks visibly Mexican/South American and speaks fluent Spanish, you should lean into this! Go put on a serape, a sombrero, some chanclas and sell tamales or tortillas in front of the local mall right now while singing "Feliz navidad" - just be the full, lead-huffing boomer racist fantasy caricature. Get arrested and then get yourself a FAT settlement for civil rights violations... while we still have courts and judges who don't have spray tan stains on their white collared robes.

Papers, please.

Honest question and genuinely not suggesting anything, but, Isn't this what the second amendment is for?

This is possibly not a real thing that happened.

Of all the news agencies I looked into that tried to verify this story, they all came up empty handed. Even snipes did a dive in on it and found nothing

So yeah look at all the comments posted here jumping to conclusions.
