Mass migration is a threat to democracy, and an existential threat to Americans. Does the law apply to us?

But, wait, can ICE shoot back? Just asking for a friend.

Of course, all that will just make it easier to send them back...in a coffin. Is that what she wants? Well, she just gave them their death certificate.

Top Police Liaison RESIGNS Days After Unhinged Democrat AG Kris Mayes Justify Shooting ICE Agents

Quote:The top police liaison for Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes abruptly resigned just days after Mayes made explosive comments that dangerously legitimized violence against federal law enforcement officers, specifically ICE agents.

David Harvey, who served as the Attorney General’s police liaison, quit his post on Friday following Mayes’ inflammatory remarks during a televised interview about Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations and Arizona’s Stand Your Ground law.

According to AZ Central, Mayes’ spokesperson “declined to comment further or confirm” whether Harvey’s resignation was directly tied to the controversy.

The controversy erupted after Mayes appeared on 12News, where she openly speculated that armed Arizona residents could legally shoot ICE agents if they could not “reasonably identify” them as law enforcement—particularly if agents were wearing masks or not in traditional uniforms.

Mayes called the situation a “recipe for disaster,” citing Arizona’s Stand Your Ground statute and the presence of armed citizens.

When pressed by journalist Brahm Resnik on whether she was effectively giving people “license to shoot an officer,” Mayes responded:

“Absolutely not. But how do you know they’re a peace officer? That’s the key.”

She continued by suggesting that citizens could later argue they did not “reasonably know” they were confronting law enforcement.

Throughout the interview, Mayes repeated the typical leftist talking points about ICE, claiming they’ve engaged in “thuggish, brutish behavior.” She also previewed a new talking point that we haven’t heard, claiming that ICE is targeting the tribal Indian population in Arizona.

“The other thing that I wanna say to ICE is keep your hands off of our tribal members,” Mayes said, laughably claiming that a Navajo man was detained “because of the color of his skin.”

Mayes further discussed the 2026 elections, plans to push back against a buildup of federal agents and ICE around election time, potential seizure of illegal voting equipment, and pushed conspiracy theories about Trump planning to cancel the midterms.

Notably, she warned that “We will do everything that physically that we can do to prevent them from seizing anything.” When asked to clarify, Mayes says, “It means what it means. No one’s taking anything out of our election polling places.”

How Arizona’s law works

https://legalclarity.org/does-az-have-a-...round-law/

While Arizona does not have a statute explicitly named the “Stand Your Ground” law, its laws on self-defense accomplish the same outcome. The state’s legal framework allows individuals to use force, and in some cases deadly force, for protection without first having to retreat.

This principle is a component of what is commonly understood as a “Stand Your Ground” policy. Arizona’s approach is rooted in the legal concept of justification, which permits people to defend themselves, their property, and others from harm.

At the heart of Arizona’s self-defense laws is the “no duty to retreat” principle. This means that if you are in a location where you are legally permitted to be and are not engaged in an unlawful act, you are not required to withdraw from a confrontation before using physical force.

This legal concept is fundamental to the state’s justification statutes and applies whether you are in your home, your vehicle, or a public space.

The law does not obligate a person to escape a dangerous situation, even if a safe retreat is possible.

Exclusive: Viral Video Shows Women Harassed by ICE Protester With Fundraising Ties to AZ AG Kris Mayes

Quote:A viral video showing anti-ICE protesters following and harassing two young women who paused to take selfies with federal agents following operations in Phoenix has become the latest flashpoint in a rapidly intensifying conflict over immigration enforcement in the Valley. The most aggressive individual in the footage has been identified as Mark Holodnak, a member of the Legislative District 12 Democrats executive board and a local real estate agent who has hosted fundraising events for Attorney General Kris Mayes. The situation raises questions about the role of political activists in confrontations with civilians during federal operations.



The incident occurred after federal agents concluded enforcement activity connected to a broader criminal investigation involving multiple Zipps locations across the Phoenix metropolitan area. As agents wrapped up operations, a small group of demonstrators confronted individuals perceived as supportive of ICE, escalating from verbal opposition to direct harassment of private citizens who were not involved in the enforcement action itself.

Warning: Language

Video of the encounter shows protesters shouting profanity and accusations at the two girls, who appeared visibly shaken as the confrontation continued. Eventually, they escaped by entering a restaurant through a back alley.

One of the protesters told RedState her intention was to coordinate with Puente AZ, an immigrant rights organization with chapters across the country and an office in Phoenix.

Phoenix has seen a steady increase in protest activity tied to ICE operations in the past two weeks, mirroring a broader national trend. While demonstrations in Arizona have largely remained contained, tensions have risen as activists increasingly attempt to track, disrupt, or publicly confront federal agents during and after enforcement actions. The operations at Zipps marked one of the most visible ICE-related law enforcement activities in the Valley this year, drawing organized protest responses within hours.

Critics argue that rhetoric from elected officials has contributed to the increasingly volatile environment. Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes has faced sustained backlash for public comments suggesting that residents could potentially invoke self-defense laws in encounters involving federal immigration agents under certain circumstances. Opponents contend that such statements undermine federal authority and risk encouraging dangerous misunderstandings during enforcement operations.

In Minnesota, protests against ICE have escalated sharply following fatal encounters involving federal agents, leading to mass demonstrations, clashes with law enforcement, and calls from business leaders for immediate de-escalation. Federal officials have warned that activist efforts to identify and follow agents increase the likelihood of violent outcomes.

Mayes’ office, which has already faced criticism and seen a senior staffer resign over public statements perceived as anti-police, now faces further scrutiny as questions arise about how closely her office is tied to activist networks that track ICE to obstruct justice and harass civilians. The Arizona Attorney General’s Office has declined to comment on the matter thus far.

Arizona Police Association SLAMS Attorney General Kris Mayes for Encouraging Leftists to Shoot and Kill ICE Agents: “Reckless, Irresponsible, and Dangerous to the Safety of All Law Enforcement Professionals in this State”

Quote:Arizona Police Association Statement on Attorney General Mayes’ Comments Regarding ICE Operations

Phoenix, AZ— Arizona Police Association Executive Director Joe Clure issued the following statement regarding Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes’ reckless comments regarding ICE operations and Arizona’s Stand Your Ground Laws:

“Law enforcement is inherently dangerous work. Recent public comments by Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes have the potential to make it even more dangerous.

“During a televised interview with 12News journalist Brahm Resnick regarding a potential ICE deployment in Arizona, the Attorney General was asked whether she had a message for protesters. She responded by urging them to remain peaceful, respectful, and restrained, stating she would ‘protect them. That message, standing alone, was appropriate.

“However, the interview quickly shifted to a discussion of Arizona’s self-defense and ‘stand your ground’ laws. In that context, Attorney General Mayes went on to describe scenarios under which a person could claim legal justification for shooting a law enforcement officer, specifically citing the possibility that ICE agents might not be easily identifiable due to masks or nontraditional uniforms.

“Even the interviewer expressed concern and attempted to redirect the conversation. Despite this, the Attorney General continued to outline how deadly force could be justified against law enforcement officers under those circumstances.

“This framing is deeply troubling and dangerous. Law enforcement officers at every level including state, local, and federal agencies do not always wear traditional uniforms. Officers across Arizona, including members of the Attorney General’s own investigative teams, routinely operate in plain clothes or wear protective face coverings when circumstances require it. This does not diminish their legal authority or status as law enforcement.

“ICE agents are sworn federal law enforcement officers carrying out the lawful duties of the federal government. Publicly speculating about how someone might legally justify shooting an ICE agent sends a dangerous and irresponsible message, particularly in an already tense and polarized environment.

“Words from elected officials matter. It only takes one unstable individual to interpret such commentary as permission or encouragement to use deadly force against police officers.

“As Arizona’s chief law enforcement officer, the Attorney General has a responsibility to de-escalate, not inflame. We find these remarks reckless, irresponsible, and dangerous to the safety of all law enforcement professionals in this state.

“The Arizona Police Association urges all elected officials, at every level of government, to stop politicizing law enforcement and immigration enforcement, and instead work collaboratively toward lawful, meaningful, and lasting solutions that do not place officers’ lives at greater risk.”

We Have an Update on That Dem Fundraiser Seen in Viral Video Harassing Women for Taking Selfie With ICE

Yep. AWFL's are a cancer on American society.

For a number of years now we have allowed people to act totally disrespectfully to authorities (via politics, race, wokeness, ect) and treat them like complete garbage and get away with it. And if anything remotely goes wrong with a response we lay all blame on authorities, crucify them publicly and totally excuse everything perp did.

Think back to all the stories and vids (such as Michael Brown) and countless others and we have allowed this to steadily increase and fester to the point where its completely normal and Millennials and the rest have grown up in a world where its not only normal but celebrated.

There is now a snowball effect of this that cannot be turned around overnight or without it coming to a very, very ugly head.
