On Tuesday, Milan Mayor Giuseppe Sala said that ICE agents were “not welcome.”

“This is a militia that kills … It’s clear that they are not welcome in Milan, there’s no doubt about it. Can’t we just say no to Trump for once?” the mayor said in an interview with Italy’s RTL 102.5 radio.

    To normalize ICE as a paramilitary entity instead of an immigration agency.

    The same thing Hitler did with the SS before he fully captured and controlled the German military.

    It’s happening here folks.

    What legal basis would they have to be there?! They’re a subgroup of the Department of Homeland security. Sending them anywhere internationally should be considered an act of terrorism if not outright war!

    ICE does not conduct immigration enforcement operations in foreign countries

    It should be obvious, but does ICE know that?

    What happens when a trigger happy lowlife who’s grown used to unimpeded authority goes to Italy for the first time and sees Italians?

    Are there not enough rent-a-cops in Italy?

    Take away their guns, batons, and masks. Maybe let them have pepper spray provided by the Italian government, and only consider that option if the US pays for it in advance.

    Italy is a sovereign nation, and needs to act like it.
