Eric Prince and Army of 100,000

The Hill

Think Trump’s deportations have been bad? Wait until his civilian army gets started.

Over the past few months, Erik Prince, former head of the private military company Blackwater, has pitched multiple proposals to the White House to help with mass deportations. Prince has argued that achieving President Trump’s aggressive deportation goals will require the government to “supplement” ICE’s capabilities. According to one of his proposals, a new Prince company, 2USV, would train and deploy an army of as many as 100,000 armed and deputized citizens.

Because we all know that white blond people are good at harvesting produce and cleaning motel rooms. But not good at explaining why their hearts are chock full of hate. There is nothing patriotic about what the Eric princes of our country are doing.

They are already waiting outside courthouses
to increase arrests, what happens when all the
workers are deported ? Business owners will
soon begin to complain loudly.
As they deport people the jobs they held will
become harder & harder to fill. None of them
have thought this thru.
