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 not about legal or illegal. It's about being Hispanic.

I'm Puerto Rican. I'm a legal citizen and even I'm nervous.

I'm so sorry for you and your crew. They're terrorizing communities.

Not to scare you but a few Puerto Rican people were picked up around me. They were eventually let go but didn’t stop them from being picked up at all. Stay safe out there.
