ICE vs Gestapo?

 Another ICE shooting happened today. It is said that had to begin the previous sentence with "Another."

It feels like the ICE agents are free to do what they want. Or are they following orders.

Gestapos followed orders years ago. At that time the Leadership was trying to create an Aryan Race, one race. I am not sure what the agenda is with the US Leadership. Some days it feels similar to the idea of creating one race, the white race.

I continue to read the news; the parallels seem to be becoming apparent each day. ICE was to round up undocumented criminals. 

I have not read about undocumented criminals recently.

I carry my passport, I am a US citizen.

I will admit, there is a bit of fear, that I would not be believed...

Entitlement

Employee fired after making comments to Shelton store customer about her being deported | kvue.com Texas teacher accused of asking student about immigration status during class | kvue.com One definition of entitlement is the belief that one is inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment. After our recent election and executive orders, particularly the order on immigration, how are people coping with this order. For some it is fear of being deported, which includes United States Citizens that might be targeted because they belong to the targeted Ethnic group. For United States Citizens that do not belong to the targeted ethnic group, is there a sense of entitlement? The two stories that I share makes me wonder if there is a sense of entitlement for some United States Citizens. The worker asking of the customer needs boxes does not sound so sincere. Is it possible that she was offering boxes out of concern or was there underlying sarcasm in her remarks with her offer? I...

Authority and Obedience

I teach Research Methods to Social Work Students. Last night the topic of discussion was ethics in research. I looked for a video of the Stanly Milgram experiment from 1960s to show to my class. I remember seeing a film about these experiments in the early 80s in my intro to psychology class. I still have a vivid memory of watching this film. One of the most unethical experiments on human subjects. I like using the experiment as one of the reasons that protections on human subjects has evolved since that time. Before class, I searched google to see if I could find a short video of what I witnessed when I was a student. I found the link below and when I watched it, it not just taught me and the class about human subjects, but it also discussed topic of authority and becoming a dictator. The description was scary because some of the elements parallel President Trumps actions since his inauguration. President Trump has signed executive order after executive order. I have not heard from ma...

Executive Orders, executive orders… Changes!

  In the past we have witnessed Executive Order after Executive Order signed by the President. Order regarding DEI, Immigration, Federal funding, Pardons among others. I can understand that a President wants to make a mark in his first 90 days in office. With this President, it has been one thing then another thing then another. It is so much to keep up with. I read the news each day and there is a new story to read regarding the president and his orders. We are only a week and a half into his term. What is next? is a prevailing thought for many. Some people are uneasy. For me, it is witnessing the country that I grew up in change in this week and a half. How long can we keep up this rate of change? I am just scratching the surface as I gather my own thoughts each day. So much to think about and its effects in the short term and the long term.  Most of the time change can be good. Right now, it feels like this change may not be good for all. Back to considering all points of v...
