I don’t say this often but … I agree with Rans Paul. And he has been consistent on this point, historically. And when we see violence at the hands of masked ICE agents that Trump is making his own army, we know what this administration will do to us.
Rand Paul: "It has not been the history of the US to kill people who are out of combat. Even if there is a war, which most of us dispute -- that a bunch of people who are unarmed allegedly running drugs is a war -- we still don't kill people when they're incapacitated ... it's illegal and immoral."

The state has always been a Republican stronghold, true! What is disturbing is that New Orleans has always ALWAYS been a city of minorities and of survivors! New Orleans always has been a Democrat city, so the state legislators seem pissed that we won’t bow down to their fascist ICE goons!
