People in the Northeast might be saying "Oh, f*ck this snow" tonight or tomorrow (we are indoor cats and don't really care). But in New Jersey, they're also saying "F.U.C.K.I.C.E."
The Fight Unlawful Conduct and Keep Individuals and Communities Empowered act, introduced in the state assembly on Thursday, will expand New Jerseyans' rights to sue members of the ICE Gestapo for running roughshod over their constitutional rights.
Good! You may not know that the Garden State has more immigrants than any state in the union except California — and this legislation, if it passes, will help build on Governor Mikie Sherrill's campaign against the Trumpsters' race-profiling roundups. (In her first month, Sherrill signed an executive order forbidding ICE from trying to seize people on state property. She also urged her constituents to record Donald's storm troopers on their smartphones and upload their videos here.)
The legislation's name is amusing, but unsurprising. After all, "F*ck ICE" is the hottest chant at pro wrestling matches these days. If even those folks are mad, so are the rest of us. We cats PURR.
