The New Orleans Police Department responded to the DHS statement with its own statement following the arrest of Temah:
Recent statements regarding Recruit Larry Temah are misleading. The New Orleans Police Department verified Mr. Temah’s employment eligibility through ICE’s E-Verify system prior to hiring and was never notified of any ICE detainer. New Orleans is not a sanctuary city, and NOPD does not control jail operations or detainer decisions, which fall under the Sheriff’s Office. Any claim that NOPD knowingly violated the law is false.
Officer Reese Harper (NOPD Director of Communications)

Is it “pig-eat-pig world”? I always thought it was “piggy pig world”.

It’s just a dumb joke, playing on “dog-eat-dog world” sometimes being misheard as “doggy dog world”.

In case you fail to read the article or statement above, they claim to have used ICEs own system to verify his eligibility. the incompetency has no bounds.
Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world · 128 pts · 197d
It's not incompetency. Incompetency assumes you tried in good faith to do something the right way.
What ICE is doing is just trying to piss people off enough to be scared for their lives. They ARE accomplishing that task.
Did they cross reference this guys identity, and verify he was a citizen? No, but that was never their intent.
They aren't incompetent. They're malicious. Intentionally evil.
Red_October@piefed.world · 32 pts · 197d
They held of the skin color swatch and determined he was in the "Arrest and deport" range. That's all they feel they need.

Well going for a cop isn't going to help them is it? If the cops and ICE end up shooting each other I think most people will consider that to be a fairly acceptable outcome.

Real brave of New Orleans PR putting out a statement defending themselves while completely ignoring their officer. No mention of their confidence in him - or denying that he's a "Criminal illegal alien having no place in our community." Fucking pussies.

Kidnapping a police officer is a bold move. In the interest of compliance with rules, I sincerely hope that this trend of LARPer vs. LEO will not continue until there is a predictable and unfunny consequence.
phoenixz@lemmy.ca · 60 pts · 197d
And the response of the police department of course is literally "ey, we did our due diligence, it's not our fault if he's illegal" instead of "GET YOUR FUCKING GRUBBY NAZI CLAWS OF MY EMPLOYEES YOU ORANGE FUCK!"
bearboiblake@pawb.social · 19 pts · 196d
ACAB. Any cops that do not act to remove the fascists from power are complicit and should be brought before a people's court for their complicity in crimes against humanity after we have taken back control from the pedophilic elites they serve.

I understand black communities need black, local cops, but I'll never understand a person of color choosing to be a cop. The institution literally starts as slave catchers.

Don_alForno@feddit.org · 2 pts · 196d
They also managed without medicine. And a lot of people died.
Just because there is an undeniable police problem I wouldn't want to go back to vigilantes taking revenge by cutting people's ears off or something.

RedditRefugee69@lemmynsfw.com · 1 pts · 195d
Do you know what a "false dichotomy" is? What you said doesn't address that.
Here's an example:
"The only types of footwear are boots and sandals."
"That's a false dichotomy; people can wear other shoe types."
"I don't think so, people wear boots all the time."
bearboiblake@pawb.social · 3 pts · 196d
I think if we get together, we can come up with other solutions beyond vigilante justice and a protected class who hold a monopoly on state-endorsed violence. No, the police have got to go, man.
NocturnalMorning@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 196d
No it's not. We started organizing police in the U.S. to protect the property and goods of the wealthy. It's been that way from the beginning. In fact, it's pretty much that way everywhere, we are just more blatant about it serving that function in the U.S.

Still not sure if you're serious, but using "boner" instead of "bono" as a legal term might have something to do with not passing the BAR.

6stringringer@lemmy.zip · 1 pts · 196d
Not serious. I chose to not attend U of Mississippi and follow in the family tradition & practice of law. It was ingrained that path was to be my fate. I would have had many guides keeping on track and in line.
Instead, I bucked the normal trend and decided to educate myself by jumping on the last several years of Grateful Dead tours. When that came to an end I was studying sound engineering in Vermont. It was then that this local band named Phish picked up the slack for all the disenfranchised tour heads.
I am not serious most of the time. I did not become an attorney nor are there any plans in the future to do so.

Ice will just arrest all the POCs and lefties (for a cop) off the local PDs. Then all that will be left are the good-old-boys.

Something stinks about the Sanctuary Cities. From the beginning, I referred to them as Collection Points. The illegals are safer in the fucking Red Oblasts and Districts (Counties).
