  1. Good. ICE is a “bad apple” magnet. If you’re the kind of LEO that loves shitting on people’s rights, ICE is the gang for you. Fuck ICE.

    ICE agents and all Trump employees should never be accepted in any jobs.

    They willingly worked for a pedophile and convicted criminal.

  3. This is the way. You know they’re gonna take pardons on the way out- so bar them from service.

  4. Most of them probably won’t ever have the skills to have any career besides some entry level manual labor job

  5. Anyone who joined ICE should be barred for life from ANY public service job aside from basic beautification and highway trash cleanups.

  6. One step further. Make them persona non grata.

    If they want to deny people their rights and protection under the law and the constitution, while taking our tax dollars, they should at least get to know what that feels like for free.

  7. Send ICE fascists back to Texas or whatever shithole red state they’re from. Keep them OUT of New Jersey.

  8. Now, what do you think the Supreme Court is going to do when that appeal gets to them? 

    Yeah. 

    It’s pointless. 

  9. A good start but not good enough. ICE racially profiled and detained my wife, an American citizen who was *born* in the United States, while she was walking to work doing nothing wrong. She had ID on her too. They didn’t care. They seemed solely interested in terrifying a woman because of her race.

    There needs to be trials for these people when this is over. They need to be publicly scorned and punished for all that they’ve done. They need to be unmasked and brought into the light.

  10. Every single person that works for ice doesnt seem to realize their going to be rejected from most jobs for life. Their going to have that shit hanging over their head forever and possibly their family as well.

    Good, and kids who join any of those turning point hitler youth clubs should have an interesting time when potential employers look them up in the future.

  12. Anyone who works for ICE and supports the monster it has become, are themselves monsters. Likely they would be terrible employees.

    I hate ICE more than most but if the person took the job for the money, then realizes they can’t behave like these criminal and quit, stopping them from getting a different job only forces them to be criminals.

  14. Good.

    I make hiring decisions, and I make it easy. If someone has a maga sticker on their car, or their social media is full of conservative posts, or they’re an admitted Republican, I just don’t hire them.

    Unfortunately this is unconstitutional, violates the equal protection clauses, and these law makers know it.

    Performative legislation that will cost tax payers money due to law suits.

    Should be the case everywhere.

    I’m not going to interview someone who terrorized US streets wearing masks, abducting people, acting as the secret police, ignoring due process, ignoring the need for judicial warrants to invade people’s homes, and let them through the process.

    I would sooner resign than work with them.

  17. Some really great bills included here. Should really be a model for other states. Hopefully it passes

    > A bill, A4300, that would impose a 50% tax on the gross receipts of private detention facilities operating under government contracts. The money would be directed to a new Immigrant Protection Fund.

  18. This is not right! They can’t get hired on after being pieces of shits, not following orders and laws, being overly horrible to people and children, killing and endangering lives, being a part of a racist dictatorship because they themselves are racist, and raping innocent people before sending them back to a country they’re not from? How dare you take away these agents rights. They were just doing their job……/s

    Would be utopian if almost every business simply refused anyone involved with ICE service flat out, but we don’t live in one of those.

    I am delighted that the Left has come around to the Conservative view that banning people from private businesses and government employment on the basis of their membership in a particular group, is perfectly acceptable behavior.
