Denver Mayor says police will resist federal officers trying to enforce Federal Immigration law

Hopefully this is just posturing, but if it isn't, does he realize what precedent he is trying to use?

Denver Mayor Promises Armed Resistance to ICE

Should Trump officials try to enter Denver in numbers to carry out deportations, Johnston has threatened to deploy Denver police at the county line and encourage tens of thousands of citizens to prevent deportations.

Say what? That sounds insane.

A number of left-wing politicians have been posturing in a similar fashion, ranging from Mayor Johnson of Chicago to Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs and Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, but as far as I have seen, their #resistance promises don't go nearly this far. Johnston has been the first to threaten, implicitly, the use of actual force and mobilization of people to prevent law enforcement action.

So he's going with this idea, except instead of stopping blacks from going to college, he's trying to stop federal agents from doing their job removing illegals.

This is what real insurrection looks like.

I guess democrat "values" include offering up women for rape and murder.

As I suggested in the other thread on this topic… THIS should be the Federsl Government response…

This is an insurrection, democrats are refusing to accept the election results. Democrats do not believe in the will of the people

This is exactly the reason for Trumps picks.

He's going to need people who can stand up to the pressure & fight back!

Homan, Gaetz, Gabbard, and Hegseth WILL NOT BACK DOWN!

"Armed resistance?" Someone inform this triggered Dem dipshit he can be LOCKED UP for threatening to shoot federal law enforcement officers. What a tard.

 

[LeroyDumonde]

That makes him, and any officers, guilty of aiding and abetting a federal crime.

All posturing, any attempt by this mayor to follow through on his braggadocio would result in political seppuku, not to mention mass civil disobedience by his own law enforcement personnel.

"Mayor of Denver, Colorado Mike Johnston has challenged Trump to try to deport any illegal migrants from his city, saying he would deploy the Denver City Police to use force against federal forces trying to deport illegals"

WOW why hasn't this lunatic traitor been arrested?

That's OK. We'll just send the military after him for being an insurrectionist and if he chooses to offer armed resistance to the military, he can suffer the consequences.

Indeed, as they should do when big government steps over the line.

First Amendment Protections, he can say whatever he wants, it's only when he actually does something does arrest become a prospect.

The military will refuse to be deployed and expected to confront American citizens due to the Posse Comitatus act.

Wrong, making those threats is plenty enough to get you arrested and jailed.

Relax, nobody is going to deploy the U.S. Military against American Citizens and the Mayor of Denver isn't going to try to send anybody up against ICE agents, it's all posturing.
