De Moines Superintendent arrested by ICE unfairly.

Of course that what liberals say but he was an illegal immigrant with a deportation order and an arrest for weapons possession. By the way when he was arrested he was arrested with a loaded handgun. Im not 100% but can illegal immigrants own guns legally?

I need a birth certificate, my ID and a blood test to get into a school to walk to the office that is within eyesight of the security guard and they hired the head of their schools with obviously no background check.

Boy, Trump sure is making our country better. Glad we got rid of this lowlife!

"Roberts got his start as a special education teacher and completed his first doctorate on the importance of including special education students in the classroom, according to Nicole Price, who has written several books with Roberts."

 

Maybe we can work something out to keep the multi-Ph.D education reformer and author who has spent 20 years helping America's children. Maybe deport some MAGA loser instead.

He can't be that smart. Doesn't seem to know that a deportation order means LEAVE and doesn't seem to understand that illegal immigrants can't own guns even though he was arrested once for it and then had the hand gun on him when he was arrested by ICE.

I thought you all were all about gun control, yet you seem to be ok with people who aren't legally able to have guns having them.

Well, shit. Turns out this degenerate is also an Olympic athlete.

This is an elite and apparently excellent human being. I can see why the Trump administration is targeting such model non-citizen citizens for removal. Makes 'em look bad. 

 

I don't know what his immigration status was when he acquired a gun or how he got it--or why he thought he needed one--but it does seem pretty likely that it was illegal to have one. And yes, a functional gun tracing system could radically reduce the number of illegal guns.

It doesn't matter what his credentials are  he was ordered to leave the country by the Biden administration, he did nothing to get his status straight and was rightfully arrested by ICE and by the way led them on a car chase with 3k in his car and a loaded handgun. 

The real headline is that the Des Moines Schoold district hired him to be their Superintendent with no background check whatsoever which is an indictment on their hiring practices. I wonder how many other criminals they let slip through the cracks.

It gets so much better, he was registered to vote as a Democrat.

If that dude voted we got another crime committed by this distinguished superintendent

You don't even want to know where he was registered and if it was legal or not? Just scooped up some Twitter outrage and brought it back here?

[Fluffypants]

Yes he was registered in Massachusets and no it isnt legal.

Have not heard of him being registered to vote in MA. Sounds like Twitter nonsense. Have a link for that? 

I know you guys are really hoping you found your Boogeyman--the illegal immigrant voter--but illegals know they are illegal and don't have any reason to risk their presence in the US. There's no upside for them, only risk. That's why it so very rarely happens.

A Twitter thing eh?

Quote

After an illegal alien, Ian Andre Roberts, the superintendent of the Des Moines Public Schools in Iowa, was arrested by ICE, Republicans blew the whistle on the fact that he was a registered active Democrat voter in the state of Maryland.

I know you guys aren't good at reading, but for future reference, Maryland and Massachusetts aren't the same state.

had heard about him being registered in MD, but the other poster claimed MA, which is why I asked him to support that claim. Noncitizens are allowed to vote in local elections in MD (local laws), but not in MA. And in any case, it appears that there's no record of him voting.

So you assume he only registered to vote and didn't actually vote? Why register to vote if you aren't going to vote? Thats like saying he got a driver's license but never intended to drive.

I'm not assuming anything. That's what the state of Maryland said.

Registering to vote is often not a discrete act. One doesn't have to go seek it out. There are campus registration drives at colleges, there are booths in malls, and sometimes it's as simple as checking a box when you get your driver's license. I don't know anything about the circumstances under which he was added to voter rolls, just that he was added, and that it seems he never voted.

As I said earlier, people in the country illegally have almost no incentive to risk deportation to do something with no direct benefit. Huge risk, no reward. They keep their heads down.

I was wrong on the state thst was my fault but the fact that he was a registered democrat makes it seem more deliberate. He had to consciously choose party.

Maybe. That'll be settled in court. But that's okay, even if he's convicted you don't mind criminals, right?

I mind illegal aliens who carry guns and vote illegally.!

You, on the other hand, hate your own people.

Oh, you're only cool with some kinds of criminals. Got it. 

I don't hate "my own people," whatever it is you think that means. This guy definitely had a weird immigration status (appears to be more complex than just overstaying a visa) but net-net, he seems to have been a hugely positive figure in the communities where he worked. Are we better off without him? Are the children of his district better off? No, it doesn't seem so. So it makes it hard to see his arrest as a "win" for anyone.

Yes. We are better off without every illegal criminal.

Make all the excuses you want. We predicted it. We found evidence of it. 

We knew what they were doing. Why do you think they let them get driver's licenses? Motor Voter Law. It allows them to register to vote while getting a DL. All they have to do is lie and say they are here legally or a citizen. Maybe that is facilitated by eager little beavers in the DMV.

And you have to be pretty dense to not understand why "they" let them get drivers licenses. Undocumented immigrants exist in this country. State and local governments have to legislate and govern taking that fact into account. They are there. They will drive. Therefore they need licensing, so that their driving is subject to law enforcement.

It would be foolish to not grant licenses, because that turns every traffic stop into an existential crisis and people will behave accordingly. 

They also can't get insurance without a license, and state and local governments do NOT want to increase the population of uninsured motorists on the road. 

All the same reasons that "sanctuary" laws exist: so state and local governments can govern in ways that are most effective regardless of what the federal government is doing. It's pure pragmatism.

I only wish for the comple demise of progressive liberalism. 

If in the states it takes Trump...so be it.
