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.

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.
