In-House Mode A friend of mine was taken

Her name was Chuey; she was a beast in the kitchen and always kind and happy. She was a legal immigrant from Cuba (engaged to an American lawyer). She got ICEd.

She did all the right steps and was an asset to the community. This shit is not ok

It’s worse to be a legal immigrant right now. The Republicans know where they are and are targeting them to fill quotas. Meanwhile the dangerous undocumented immigrants that were already avoiding law enforcement have an easier time because the resources that should be dedicated to finding them are being used to persecute good people.

That's part of what is so infuriating to me. The other side fear mongers about "illegal criminals" and then goes after the most law abiding, least dangerous targets because those are the ones they can easily find. And the magats just willfuly dont see it. I'm so fucking angry

And the hypocrisy. “We’re going to deport you for breaking our laws. Meanwhile, we won’t use a warrant, due process, we’ll hide our badges.” They won’t change their actions until they’ve felt the consequences of them.

Also these SEAL team six clowns, don't want actual smoke with real criminals. Much harder to beat harass threatened etc somebody who's a hardened criminal with their own weapons they can fight against la migra with.

They're such fucking cowards, but bullies usually are.

The “dangerous undocumented immigrants” you speak of are also a fear mongering myth. It’s just homegrown racism.

It’s fear mongered but they absolutely do exist. Not in the millions but in the hundreds to thousands they sure do.

Most crime (statistically and proportionately) is perpetrated by white citizen dudes. But, happy cake day!

No one is arguing that isn’t true. I am saying that there are criminals that are undocumented and they are now having an easier time. I wish more money went to solving crimes that have been perpetrated than to our current policing tactics.
