General Discussion Border Patrol agents arrested firefighters fighting Washington wildfire after they asked the fire crew to line up to check their IDs.

What do we all think of this? Seems pretty nuts to me. They are actively getting in the way of wildlands guys as they do their job out there. I dont think this should be allowed or encouraged. Firefighting is a lot more important than .... risking 20 guys dressed exactly like firefighters crossing the Canadian border?

Lol comparing wearing masks to prevent the spread of covid to ICE wearing masks to protect their identities while committing crimes is pretty telling of the type of person you are. Just beating around the bush is all you're doing 😂💀

Actually, your comment history is WAY more telling of the type of person you are. Ew.

You misspelled “enforcing laws” when you wrote “committing crimes”. This is what America voted for to fix the previous 4 years of disaster.

I always hear this but what exactly was a disaster? Youve been lied to.

They felt the effects of inflation during Biden’s term even though it was caused by the amount of money injected into the market and given to businesses by the Trump admin. during COVID. They used Biden’s immigration policy as a scapegoat which is what led us to where we are now… Hard working patriots trying to manage a wildfire, getting swooped up by the gestapo.
