How does this post even make sense in this community? literally written in the sidebar:
The police problem is that police are policed by the police. Cops are accountable only to other cops, which is no accountability at all.
This is a SLIGHTLY different case than what the sidebar mentions.
Yes, asking asking the police to investigate themselves is a non-starter.
This post is advocating turning the state/local police against ICE, a federal agency.
I agree, it’s unlikely to make a difference. But if you call 9-1-1 and report “Masked men in an unmarked car just kidnapped someone”, it’s way different from asking internal affairs to investigate another cop.
Thank you for responding. While I don’t agree I can see your reasoning and appreciate your approach of communicating it in a transparent way.
After making the comment we ended up with a live example. LAPD escorting CBP off the grounds of Dodger Stadium. So local pressure CAN be applied.

More than 600 local police agencies are partnering with ICE: See if yours is one of them
