ICE Barred From Making Arrests Near New York Courthouses by Federal Judge.....

[MMC]

A federal judge issued an order on Wednesday that stops Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials from making civil immigration arrests near courthouses in New York State.


Judge Jed Rakoff of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York ruled (pdf) that ICE is barred from “conducting any civil arrests on the premises or grounds of New York State courthouses, as well as such arrests of anyone required to travel to a New York State courthouse as a party or witness to a lawsuit.”


Rakoff characterized the ICE arrests of illegal immigrants as “disruptions and intimidations artificially imposed by an agency of the federal government in violation of long-standing privileges and fundamental principles of federalism and of separation of powers.”



They alleged that the ICE arrests in and around New York state courthouses “are the disruptions of New York courts and the intimidation of parties and witnesses,” and such arrests “make certain parties and witnesses fear coming to court,” as well as create “temporary chaos” that “disrupts court proceedings and makes it impossible for judges to do their jobs effectively.”


Rakoff, in siding with the New York officials, wrote that “the Court declares ICE’s policy of courthouse arrests, as now embodied in the [ICE] Directive, to be illegal.”


In June 2019, a federal judge in Boston, Massachusetts, had also blocked ICE from making civil arrests at state courthouses (pdf).


ICE has moved to appeal the ruling......snip~

The Former United States of America had a long and checkered history. From its beginnings in 1776 to its end in 2020 it became the richest country with the most opportunities for the largest number of people. This was all negated by its 80 year history with slavery that was theoretically ended with the deaths of over 400000 men during the War Between The States. However, it was impossible to wash that stain from the American Experience. This lead to constant charges of racism against those of European descent even when the events leading to those charges were caused by same race players.

Its all well and good that the Former United States of American and its history of racism, sexism, xenophobia. transgender bias and all around hatred for anyone not white and straight and male is gone. Now, we can show the people as the Great Big Brother once told us that "Freedom is Slavery"

The US is dead, long live the US.

This Judge doesn't look good coming from the same court that had ok'd ICE arresting illegals on the grounds of the Courts before.

That will not last long. It will be overturned. The judge cannot block someone from enforcing the law. He can only make a judgement on the law itself.

DACA will be ruled on next week by the Supream court.

Arrest the illegals once they step off court property.

Arrest the illegals once they step off court property.

That is what Ice will do.
