    They’ve done two big, “operations,” in New York, and both of them failed spectacularly and immediately. The population density of that city basically means, no matter where they show up, within minutes there will be several dozen angry people chasing them down the street. They’re getting constant harassment in fucking Minneapolis, they’ve got no hope of getting anything done in NYC.

        I grew up in NYC, live in Boston now. I would say that New Yorkers are rude, impatient, and short-tempered. Bostonians are mean, with a deep-seated rage that’s always threatening to burst to the surface. I don’t know much about Minneapolis, but if they’re anything like the midwesterners I’ve known, they’re kind, polite, and helpful folks. If a large-scale ICE operation provokes that kind of reaction from them, they are not prepared for what they will receive in the Northeast.
