If truly random, why only two so far?
So, you want more? How many are required to be a problem? Both victims were not a threat, weren't doing anything illegal, and were executed because of [reasons]. Basically, random.
I'm exhibiting stubbornness? I'm having a conversation with albaby, and accept what he says since he knows the law better than me. Asking follow-up questions is not "stubbornness". It's trying to get more depth and clarity. I also don't accuse Dope of anything (except maybe bad sources). He continues to restate his erroneous conclusion that local LEOs are obligated to help the Feds, even though albaby has stated several times that is not true. I, also, have corrected him in a few replies. But I don't accuse him of anything.
As for the election, I know it was lost. Never questioned that (unlike the right-wing in 2020). Doesn't mean that I will accept illegal acts, nor not call for impeachment for cause. Not that this would succeed given the current make-up of Congress. But, the Felon has given us numerous causes for impeachment.
As for Sanctuary Cities, the only rancor is produced when ICE shows up and starts harassing people (denying them due process, no probable cause, shooting them, tear gassing them, etc). Minneapolis was perfectly peaceful until ICE showed up. Also, just to restate it (since you seem to be missing the point of it all), local LEOs are not obligated to assist federal personnel (ICE are not LEOs, which I only recently learned, so I will call them "personnel") in their duties. All the sanctuary laws (probably poorly named) do is prevent local authorities from expending their resources for federal activities. That's it. That's all the statutes do, because that's all they can do. If the feds show up with an actual warrant, locals have to assist/comply. Otherwise, they have to use their own resources to do whatever they are doing.
