And since Minneapolis, a majority of Americans don't approve of what ICE is doing.

So maybe that's what this is an example of.

No, it's just person after person.

No ice.

Boo ice.

And the judge was very focused on this this follow up, which was, OK, can you put aside your feelings about ice, however strong they are?

Can you sort of leave them outside the courtroom?

Not at all.

But a lot of times they would be like, I don't know if I can.

I will try.

But I am really upset.

And the judge, which seems honest, the judge would kind of push them.

So does that mean you can't follow my instructions under the Constitution to consider only what's in front of you?

And then they would eventually be like, yes, I can follow your instructions.

Most of them ended up saying yes after some pushing from him.

And he kept using as an example, he kept being like, you know, I'm an Aggie, so you know how I feel about the University of Texas.

But if the University of Texas was on trial, I could put my feelings aside and judge the University of Texas fairly.

If I can do that, can you do that?

And finally, one of the potential jurors in the back and forth said, sort of respectfully, a college rivalry is not the same as human rights.

And this anti-ICE stuff comes up again then when the prosecution gets a chance to ask their questions.
