The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

For the same reason. Not everyone in the hallway of a jail has committed a serious crime. Most people that are arrested are never even charged with anything or have the charges dropped. Some people that are arrested are acquitted. Many people that have been arrested for a crime are arrested for minor crimes. Etc. - albaby

-----------------

When the system is working the locals cops identify the specific criminal alien for ICE to come and pick up. This puts the local in control of who is picked up. It is not like ICE roams the halls of the jail looking for brown people as you imply.
