   The irony of local police complaining that they’re being racially profiled by ICE is almost more irony than I can bear. I’m going to bed.

     Since these are all Kavanaugh stops, I’m pretty sure the officers targeted already believe that racial profiling exists. Whether it changes police behavior… I don’t know.

     I will say this though: police saying this may help a few people believe that this is really happening who didn’t believe it before.

     Honestly, if they can learn from this and do better in the future, I'll take it.

     @mls14 @adredish
     Yeah, in a footnote — and I don’t care. It’s a “Kavanaugh stop,” and it will be long after Kavanaugh himself has completely stopped and is six feet under.

     @inthehands @adredish Kavanaugh already overruled his own stupid self on this but the agents apparently don’t care.
