  • I know I’ll get downvoted to hell for this, but I have to stick up for the big Texas metros, especially Austin and Houston. They are in a constant battle against fascist state government as well as federal fuckery. The police department is legally required to alert the appropriate agencies of any open warrants. If they do not comply, the state and federal government will step in. What they are NOT required to do is to warn the victim against possible ICE detention. That is just HPD trying to do better in what is essentially a fucked situation.

    PS: That is not to say that those police departments don’t have their issues. They have many. But I don’t think they are as complicit with Trump’s gestapo as the majority of Florida law enforcement is.
