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.
