So another day and more brown folks getting abducted off the streets of the USA by masked and in many cases unmarked and unidentifiable men.
And Americans....do nothing. Nothing effective. I'm sure there are lots of thoughts and prayers which work so well to stop school shootings...

Why has this not happened? Surely every cop can't be onboard?

So why are ICE agents not in court all day every day being sued to hell and back?
It seems Americans are unable? unwilling? to use the legal remedies they have?

Maybe if they stop to obsessing about it? Maybe treat people like people? If people are assholes they're assholes regardless of their color? Equally people shouldn't get a pass for any reason because of their color good or bad

Exactly as many predicted. Americans talk a big game on how 'they won't take ICE doing x" and then.....thoughts and prayers

But as far as I can see, Americans are simply standing by and occasionally posting hot takes. Why is nobody doxing these people? Why is nobody standing outside their houses with vuvuzuelas? They live amongst you and you tolerate it? I'm sorry if I seem obtuse....

Yep.
ARGUABLY, EU would be better off without hungry.
It shows what will happen in the United States. A veneer of democracy over entrenched illiberal ugliness supported by a large minority if not majority of the population.

The reprehensible behavior of the American fans, enabled it has to be said but absolutely slack regulation by course officials, holds an ugly but truthful mirror up to Trump's America.
